Coaxing the Roughneck

More than Innocent

by Jessa Kane

Cindy just inherited an oil rig in the middle of the Gulf. Selling it will give her enough money to move into an apartment without leaks or loud parties downstairs—not to mention, some cash will help jump start her landscaping business. There's one king sized problem, however. His name is Butch. He hasn't left the engine room of the oil rig in years. And he's not about to vacate now. Luckily, Cindy has a plan for coaxing big, bad Butch up to the surface of the rig. Temptation. But they don't call Butch a roughneck for nothing—and she's about to get a lot more than she bargained for.

1.75 ‘purple trunk of hunger’ stars 🍆

I can't believe I nearly missed the release of another JK novella! I couldn't imagine myself without them! 🧍‍♀️I physically could not take this book seriously. The way the hero is described made me think this was a monster romance. Apparently, Butch’s (H) dick is so fucking huge that no woman wants to be with him. JK really just giving us the same story in different fonts—

•virgin heroine
•hero has an ‘elephant cock’
•MCs fall in love after fucking once
•hero stalks heroine
•daddy kink

Miss. Kane needs to stop fucking playin’ with these sex scenes😂 The first meeting between Cindy (h) really sets up the storyline for what it is. Butch cums…in his jeans…from just seeing her for the first time

She steps closer. Her tits jiggle just a little inside her white tank top—
And I ejaculate in my jeans.

→SIR, YOU DID NOT.

The description of Butch’s dick had me straight up howling sometimes. Butch goes on and on the whole novella about how no woman wants him because his dick is too big and easily hurts them.

This is my curse in life. Being too well-endowed to please a woman. I stopped trying when I was twenty-two and I’m now thirty-one.

→Sweetie I think the reason you were hurting those woman is because you don’t know how to use what you’ve got, but that’s just my 2 cents

also—

Lord, it looks like three Coke cans stacked on top of each other.

→In case you’re wondering, 3 coke cans stacked up is about 14.5 FUCKING INCHES JESUS LORD HOW THAT MAN’S DICK FIT IN HIS PANTS

You can tell Butch has been celibate for over a decade cause listen to this man’s dirty talk

“Rode me like a fucking bike. Making Daddy come so hard. Baby. Smooth-ass girl. Fucking hell.”

→A bike??! Really 😂😭

As I mentioned in the intro, it was hard to tell if Butch has actually human when there’s lines like these—

“He surges forward with a close-lipped roar, tearing the skirt off my hips, rendering my completely naked. ”

→Man sees one women and he loses his grip on reality

And even—

“He sees me and pounds his chest, once, twice, the feral gleam in his eyes taking on even more dimension”

→He’s freaking pounding his chest like a beast bye 💀

Of course the daddy kink made me really uncomfortable, but then again when doesn't it. Listen you do you, but hearing anyone say 'daddy' or 'little girl' automatically has me cringing 😬

[chan ☆]

a romance for the ages lmao

[Ainhoa]

That moment, when the love of your life whom you just met two days ago, comes roaring around the corner, pounding his bare chest, without any shoes or socks and shouting your name, whilst you’re grinding yourself against gardening tools.

That my friends, is a little bit scary, but also pure love apparently.

[Mareeva]

PLZ THIS IS BRILLIANT🤣🤣🤣🤣

She was blown away by the wind like Mary Poppins and his dick is the size of three coke cans stacked on top of each other.

[Flor ❁ (HIATUS)]

the only thing you need to know before reading this book is that he has an elephant dick.

[❁ lilyreadsromance ❁]

So... that initial scene? He saw her coming down the stairs and voila, he came in his pants. No physical stimuli at all. I can't.
The chest thumping? I can't.

Honestly, nothing about any of these scenes are that particularly hot. It was just a mess, like the hero's pants.

[Wobilba]

Apparently, humping gardening tools is a thing 🤣🤪

[Dani]

Ok this one made me laugh and ngl that ending was pretty good 🤭

I mean, he has 'muscles the size of watermelons' and his junk 'looks like three Coke cans stacked on top of each other'.
Can't make that shit up.

[Kimmy’s Reads!]

Yes 🙌🏽 🙌🏽!!

I’m not entirely sure what made me read this again but it hits the spot every time !!

I want to scream at the top of my lungs 🫁!! This was so freaking good 😊 I want to scream 😱 Bloody Mary. Coaxing the roughneck was lovely and detailed and the kink was on a million and six… I loved every second and I can’t wait until many more !!

4.5✨
2.5🌶️

#️⃣ ~89 page novella
💕 Oil rig owner’s daughter FMC x oil rig worker MMC
💋 Age gap (FMC 19 x MMC 31)
🔥 Insta lust + insta love
👱‍♂️ Daddy kink (slight Daddy/little girl language)
🩵 HEA epilogue

I finished reading this in the silly, goofy mood hours of 4am and this just hit every mark for me.

Suspend your disbelief of the bonkers plot premise and insta-everything of the main couple, and all you really have are two obsessed dorks in love having hot, rough sex.

Our FMC Cindy inherits a sole oil rig after the owner, her estranged father, passes away. Cindy knows absolutely nothing about the oil industry, but she can make a pretty penny if she sells it, which would help her settle herself in life and grow her landscaping business.

After hearing of the owner’s passing, all workers have left the rig to find other work. All except one. Our MMC, Butch. He’s worked and lived there for over 5 years, never once in that time having come up on deck, and seemingly nothing will move him.

Can Cindy find some way to change his mind?😉

Same old goodness!

Someone on Reddit reviewed a bunch of Jessa Kane's book and found they all share a lot of similar threads. Reading them I realized that if I had seen them just mentioned her books wouldn't necessarily be my cup of tea. Some days later the newsletter arrives letting me know she has a new book and here I am one clicking without even reading the description of the book.
Yes, they may have the same built lines, but they are all so good! This one checks all the boxes and turns the idea of 2 people in love, obsessed with each other, to a whole new level. Looking forward to the next Jessa Kane book, so I can oneclick it again with no remorse.

[Starr (AKA Starrfish) Rivers]

It's so insanely unbelievable. And yet, there's a part where I got slightly emotional...

[Melluvsbooks]

DNF - he jizzes in his pants just looking at the h. 👀

A grown ass man. 🥴😐🤡

I’m good. ✌🏻

[Milina’s library]

Completely ludicrous. Absolutely hilarious. But… not terrifying this time. My bar is low for jessa

[PeaceOfGod]

Finally, he breaks the kiss and I sob his name, my heels digging into his hips, back arching. “Pretty little girl with her thighs so wide,” he rasps against my throat. “We’re all alone on this rig, you know that? I’m one shred of decency away from plowing that sexy cunt you’re offering me. Better watch it, Cindy.” He looks down between our bodies where my hips are grinding upward, writhing desperately against his lap. “You’ll put ideas in my head like, hmmm, maybe she likes a little pain.” He thrusts against me hard and I scream, my clit throbbing—throbbing—stars blinking in front of my eyes. “Maybe it’ll feel like Daddy finally came home and he’s paying attention now.”

🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵


✅Check tags for spoilers.

Jessa Kane books are like............Ice-cream.........no matter what flavour ............. ALWAYS tastes sweet.

[Azet]

This read was so crazy i had to laugh several times.I also miss the novellas where the main-characters were more close to each other in age,i think they are wayyyy hotter than the always young h and older H with daddy kink delivered here.

[CHAMPAGNE]

4 Smutty ✨elephant dick✨ stars

The guy has a huge elephant dick, the girl gets blown away by wind, they fall in love in a matter of hours and live together forever— happily and horny-ly. What else do you have to know? 😏

[Nicole]

What did I just read..... complete bonkers 🤪

[Jo ✿]

I do love a big ole scarred man

[vxhexn reads]

Jessa Kane knows how to make you squirm and this story is no exception.

🖤 instalove agegap romance
🖤 19yo virgin h with a little bit of sass
😳 31yo, 7ft tall ex-marine oil rig mechanic with PTSD
🥵 yes daddy
🍼 breed¡ng & stalk¡ng
🐱🍆 side of a house during the day

When Cindy inherits an oil rig from her father at nineteen her first thought is to sell and make a better life for herself. Help free both her and her mom of debt. After all he was never a good father or husband, having left many years before, so why perpetuate his legacy?

But then the lawyer says something that complicates things, “If you want to sell this rig, you’ll have to find a way to make Butch leave.” Puzzlement draws [Cindy’s] brows together. “Butch? Who is that?” “The rig mechanic.”

And in what can only be called a dick move he ends with “Good luck explaining to your potential buyer that their new rig comes with a seven-foot beast with a bad temper who takes orders from no one but himself.”

So now Cindy has no choice but to climb down into the bowels of the rig and confront a man who’s nearly two feet taller than her and apparently unwilling to relent on his stance to exit the place he considers home. But the moment their eyes connect and they see each other the world shifts.

And the simple sight of her has him coming down the leg of his pants, but her response is the cutest. “That w-was one heck of a greeting. I don’t think anyone has ever been quite so happy to see me.” [Butch] grunt, grateful for the dim lighting so [Cindy] doesn’t see the tips of [his] ears are burning red.

And things simply get more intense from there. To help coax her roughneck out from the depths of the rig she barters her body for his ascent. With each floor things get steamier until finally they explode. And my gawd I don’t know how she made his dick the side of three coke cans work but if she wasn’t meant for him no one was.

Of all the ways this story could have gone, I was not prepared for the moment Butch literally turns into Tarzan 🤦🏽‍♀️ “He sees me and pounds his chest, once, twice, the feral gleam in his eyes taking on even more dimension.”

Thank fuck that gag inducing moment is quickly replaced with a very loud, very public romp. Again no idea how this little girl handled that beast up against a wall in public but damn wouldn’t you debate on trying.

The epilogue has a five year time jump and we end with a declaration of total devotion, complete stalker ways, babies, and forever afters.

These books are never a disappointment for a quick fix 😉 or ramp up for more.

I don't know if I'll be the same after reading this book.

Because I refuse to deal with this myself, just look:
---
'the purple trunk of hunger' LEAVE.

'Forget the ruler, one would need a tape measure to determine the length of his shaft. And the circumference? It would take both of my hands to fit around him.'



MA'AM HOLD UP A MINUTE 😶. What did I just-

---
Please, if anything, this man had to work on some self-control, because that meeting scene was not it 🤚.

And let's not forget about the height difference: THIS MAN WAs 7 FEET AND SHE WAS 5'2- 💀💀💀. She doesn't even come up to his chest 😭.

JESSS KANE EXPLAIN YOURSELF RIGHT NOW. I'm not even joking, I'm actually scared of her-

BYE I'M LEAVING.

Obsessed!!!!!!!

I have read EVERY single book and have re-read them all at least three times, some more than others and this is now one (of many) of my favorites! I own all but like 2 or three (kindle unlimited those few though) of Jessa Kane's books and buy them as soon as they come out. Seriously in my top three authors, and number one every time I read her book(s). I swear I'm not creepy or scary and nowhere on the same level of obsessed as Butch or the Navy Seal Stepbrother or the Olympians coach lol

[Archives of Jina]

LISTEN, this rating is PURELY due to enjoyment. I assume any other Jessa Kane book I read will be the same way. This was the most unhinged, baffling, hilarious shit I have ever read. I loved it. Ridiculous.

[emma]

Not my fav but I think I figured out why no matter how absurde these novellas are, they always seem to work, and it’s due to the epilogue. She always leaves us with one chapter of fluff and love and you finish on a high.

[Emily]

This has to be the most ridiculous thing I've ever read, but still 3 stars lol

[Alba M.]

Cindy ha herdado una plataforma petrolífera pero ella no la quiere para nada. Además necesita el dinero para pagar sus deudas. Pero para venderla primero tendrá que echar a uno de sus trabajadores que se niega a salir de allí. Sólo que convencer a Butch no va a ser tan fácil como parece, pero seguro que será maravilloso...

QUE NO ME HABIA DADO CUENTA QUE TENIA EL LIBRO SIN RESEÑAR DESDE EL MES PASADO! 🤣 Donde va que lo leí y me acabo de dar cuenta. Este año sin duda no cumplo el objetivo, apenas tengo tiempo de respirar 🤦🏻‍♀️. En fin, como solo tengo tiempo para estos libros ya sabéis cómo es: cortito, amor a primera vista, macho alfa y final ultra feliz 🥰. Lo que necesito ahora mismo vamos, porque menudo añito tengo de estrés 🤣

[eevee]

Cindy inherited an oil rig from her absentee father when he died. But her lawyer tells her she can’t sell without doing something about Butch, the man who’s lived in the oil rig for years. Cindy decides to trade herself in exchange for Butch to budge, but it seems like Butch wants an awful lot more.

Includes a daddy kink and some breeding action. Hero also apparently has a big package downstairs. Fun novella.

Would keep on my shelf.

[Kat | Tropes TBD]

3.5 Stars. I liked this one more than the one other Jessa Kane book I’d read. Of course it’s still completely ridiculous and a quintessential example of a romance that’s fun to read about but doesn’t resemble anything close to what I want to happen to me in real life. This was a good, quick read and I’m planning to dive into Kane’s backlist to do a ranking of her books so expect to see me read more from her.

[Ashleyalwaysreads]

I absolutely fucking loved this one!
