Forever #6

Seducing Mrs Johnson

Will one night with the beautiful younger woman ever be enough, or has it changed Julia's life forever?

This is a super hot Age Gap Romance between two women from different worlds. Steamy, yet sweet, and always a HEA.

Julia Johnson is bisexual and in an open marriage with her husband from whom she has drifted apart over the years. Her life is a series of frustrations, not least that of ageing and feeling like the years are slipping away.

Her surprise gift from her husband for her 57th Birthday is a night alone with an enigmatic and gorgeous young woman, Isla.

Isla is an escort.

Is Isla just good at her job of making Julia feel special, or when Julia feels like there might be something more between them, could she possibly be right?

What happens if she is right? Isla is still an escort and Julia is still Mrs. Johnson.

Can there be a happy ever after for them?

(There is no cheating in this book- The Johnsons have an open marriage and are ethically non-monogamous.)

You'll love this super hot Age Gap lesbian romance.

Emily Hayes delievers if you are in the mood for a smexy age-gap escort love story. Her style is easy to read and straight forward. All the characters had excellent communication and when the "dark" moment happens it totally made sense and was resolved in a realistic way.

The escort trope is a guilty pleasure of mine. They come in all different flavors. This one is a full service escort story. Julia meets Isla (love the name) when Julia's husband suprizes her with an escort for her 57 birthday. (julia and her husband have a open marriage). The age gap is a bit steep for me but the story was told really well and it was obvious they where both very attracted to each other not only phyically but also emotionally. Things end up with a very HEA and a nice epilogue.

Seducing Mrs. Johnson is a very hot novella featuring an age-gap romance between a wealthy older woman and an escort hired by her husband.
The Johnson’s have an open marriage. Both are bisexual which is very cool.
(All the sex in this book is of the sapphic variety though in case that’s important to anyone).
If you like age-gap and escort-themed romance, this one certainly won’t disappoint.

An age gap story, without any cheating, which was more about romantic fulfilment and self-actualization after decades of being in an open marriage. Julia, a mother of two adult children, sneaks away to a little café to start drafting a book she has forever put on the back burner. The only available seat is in a quiet corner where she meets an energetic younger woman, she enjoys the company off. She leaves regretting to get her name and contact information. A few days later for her birthday, her husband gifts her a special night out with a beautiful young escort. Unexpectedly her escort is that same woman she met earlier. Julia and Isla hit it off and so the romance begins. The character development fit well within the confines of this abounding yet short story.

Julia is part of a bisexual couple in a long-term open marriage. She encounters an enticing younger woman and, in a bizarre coincidence, is presented with the same younger woman as a present from her husband for her birthday. Sparks fly that ends up changing her whole life.

A convenient marriage
A gift
And a new path to ever after.

In film form this is 'A perfect ending' type with the kind of ending i would have rightly believed was perfect for the film.

Lust to unexpected love

SAPPHIC BOOK BINGO: favorite trope, different orientation, erotica, out of your comfort zone, meet-cute; UNICORN: character over 50, twin, BDSM, second generation (possibly other categories)

A married middle-aged woman couldn't find an empty table at a coffee shop and asked an attractive stranger to share with her. During meaningful conversation, they felt a connection with each other, but never even exchanged names. A later, surprising coincidence led to an unexpected result that changed their lives.

I really liked the characters, and there were similar elements with the movie, A Perfect Ending, which had a great plot. It was an appropriate length, and felt like a complete story, as opposed to the disappointing length of a short story. Great read.

Although I'd given up on this author, the title and cover 'seduced' me.

It's an okay story, but once again, the lack of editing makes for a hard read- if those things bother you.

The best thing I can do for this author is not pick up another book by her. She has a good following, so I hardly think that will matter.

FOOTNOTE - This story adds fuel to the belief poly couples are unhappy and an open-marriage always ends in divorce.

Another diamond from my TBR shelves! Julia is bisexual in an open marriage , they love each other but it's more brother/sister vibes now. For her birthday, her husband hires an female escort, Isla. (Isla has a thing for older women). When Julia can't stop thinking about Isla, she hires her again and again etc.
This is a beautiful age gap and HOT, love story! 5 stars!

Romances with a woman who works as an escort have their charm. This is one of them. Isla, as a sweet and talented worker, has a vast number of clientele, only women. Since everything must come to an end, employment becomes unfruitful when Isla meets Mrs. Johnson and falls in love with her mutually. As her surname suggests, she is the wife of Mr. Johnson. The emotional rollercoaster has begun.

The story might be a cliché for a tenth of the time, yet this is a truly enjoyable. There is always something new, imaginative and joyful.

Heartwarming story

Isla and Julia were great characters. The age gap between these two women was handled in a way that was delicate and sexy. the whole story was enjoyable reading and flowed well with very little drama, which made it very interesting to read. The two main characters were delightfully portrayed. Truly a wonderful experience reading this book and one I strongly recommend for others to read.

Marvelous!

IMHO, there's nothing better than curling up with a well written book and losing myself in the author's imaginary world of women loving women. The characters come to life and drag you, willingly, into their lives and loves. The bonus sex scene, available as a separate download, is much preferable to having the epilog as a separate download from the book. Lesfic fans will want to add this author to their must read lists!

Sweet

I loved this sweet love story. Julia is married to Michael and they have an open marriage. For her birthday he hires a female escort. Julia and Isla fall in love. They get married in the end. Great love scenes with a happy ending.

Got better towards the end

I loved the age-gap and falling in love but am a little uncomfortable around straight couples and paid sexual services.

Another hot steamy read

Age gap, escort, if you like a hot short story give this one a go. If you prefer a more suggestive romance this may be a little too explicit.

3 stars. If this had been better edited I would've rated it higher but the lack of editing made this tough to get through at times. Other than that, it was pretty good. Escort falls for her married client. Isla and Julia have really great chemistry and the sex scenes were scorching. There's a tad bit of drama thrown in in the end and the epilogue was super adorable if not a bit drawn out. I liked it. This was a fun and spicy read and I'll probably pick up more by this author.

Incredibly Good Short Story

I know it's a "book" and it has everything it needs, but it's wonderfully short so it can be enjoyed quickly. The characters are captivating, the plot a tiny bit twisty, and the situation totally new to me, but if you enjoy a sexy romp with happy ever after this is perfect.

Very good book

I always find it interesting when books make it work between 2 people who don’t seem to be what looks to an outside eye as a good match. These 2 women just seem to fit. It seemed right and I love a HEA.

Seducing Mrs. Johnson (Kindle Edition) by Emily Hayes is a light read. Mrs. Julia Johnson and Isla Reynolds find themselves in each other I thought it is a frothy love story. 3 stars closer toward 4.

I am giving this 2 stars because there was a lot of good spicy sex scenes and the plot had potential if it was done well. At first it wasn't to bad but soon I realized it was not good writing. For starters the book takes place in NYC and even though Isla is called an escort she is getting paid to have sex and is thus a prostitute which is illegal in new york. The author should have based it in Nevada or somewhere else in the world it is legal. I don't usually write reviews as I know I am not the most qualified but this book just pissed me off so much. For starters Julia and Michael have 2 daughters who are brought up multiple times but there is only one interaction with them and it is at the end of the book. If you are going to add these characters and have them be a part of the story then I would like them to be around for even just a bit. The next thing that bothered me was Isla's collage girlfriend's story, it was very rushed and felt unfinished. The biggest thing that annoyed me was that instead of having a few big conflicts the author choose to have all these little conflicts that were immediately resolved. It felt like she did not want to hurt the feelings of her characters. I know lack of communication is a trope for romance books but this took it to a new level. No one in this book knew how to have a conversation. Anyways this was more of a rant then a review because as I have stated I am not qualified for this. I would not recommend this book to my worst enemy.
