Playing With Fire

by S.E. Law

Okay, so I’m a bad girl. I decided to do a little strip tease for the teenage boy who lives next door, but after I was done, I looked out the window …

… and saw his DAD watching me!

Oh $hit!

Please tell me I’m imagining this!

But this is no joke because Ed Sterling’s seen my curves now, and the handsome alpha male wants them for himself.

Maybe it won’t be so bad though because Ed’s gorgeous, with flashing blue eyes, a broad chest, and a certain something in his pants that makes a BIG first impression. Not that I know of course …

… but it definitely feels like I’m playing with fire.

But Ed’s got babies on his mind. The older man says he’s happy to teach me the ways of being a woman …

… but what happens when his son wants me TOO?



This is a naughty tale that follows Magnolia, Primrose’s younger sister from our previous book, The Arranged Marriage. Maggie is sassy, flirty, and in way over her head. The problem? She likes how it feels with the older man even when the consequences are all too real! Put on your seat belts for a roller-coaster ride of love, desire, and everything in between. No cheating, no cliffhangers and always a HEA for my readers.

This is the 49th installment to The Forbidden Fantasies Series, and I assure you that it's just as riveting as the first publication. Congratulations to Ms. S.E. Law. For your clearly creative mind alone I certainly do appreciate you.

Each and every release, in The Forbidden Fantasies Series, is based on the 'forbidden' and each book is most definitely worth your time and attention.

While each and every release has an incredible storyline, as well as a fantastic set of characters, they are all unique and deliciously crafted.

Inside these pages; you are introduced to Magnolia, aka Maggie, (who we met briefly during her Sister, Primrose's story) and her older, albeit gorgeous, neighbor, Ed.

You see Ed has a Son, that just happens to be in Maggie's grade but, he is not the one that holds her interest. While one night, Maggie puts on a show, that will never be forgotten, it is the Father, Ed, who is now completely determined to capture the object of his desire... Maggie. Discover what transpires between Maggie and Ed in this incredibly designed and unforgettable romance.

I was beyond fortunate to have requested an advanced reader's copy of Playing With Fire in exchange for my honest and voluntarily given opinion.

I truly recommend reading this publication, as well as the entire Series, as a whole, thus far.

Once again we are wowed with steamy debauchery and shenanigans in the Forbidden Romance series!

Maggie Talbot is a real sassy, flirty tease when it comes to men and in this instance she teases the wrong man by accident or did she?

A sexy, raunchy strip tease in a window for her neighbor Corey Sterling leads to his sexy father Garry seeing the curvy luscious sex goddess as well which leads him to borrowing a cup of sugar a couple of days later..........

Maggie prefers older men to immature school jocks and this is where Maggie and Garry start their forbidden relationship until prom night when the temptation is too much for the older chaperone of the prom kids.........

What will happen when the truth is revealed in the most humiliating way?
Will Garry give up his young goddess as she is everything he wants in a woman?
What will happen when Corey finds out?

A steamy, raunchy Age Gap Romance that will have you reaching for an ice cold glass of water........

This is Maggie/Magnolia's story and if you've read The Arranged Marriage you've met her older sister Primrose. This is part of the Forbidden Fantasies Series and is an age gap romance with an older man and younger woman. No shortage of smut that began with a strip tease meant for his son catches the attention of Ed. He's determined to make Magnolia his and they begin a secret affair until they're caught at the prom. Sexy and steamy for sure and a little out there. But a fun read that will grab your attention right at the beginning. The characters are well developed. An HEA and a baby on the way makes for some interesting times. I read an arc via the author and voluntarily chose to review it.

Maggie catches Ed's attention when she does a striptease that is supposed to be for his son, who is more her age. Maggie has had her eye on Ed but he is a lot older than her. After Maggie catches Ed's attention things get steamy for them, which cause a lot of obstacles to pop up in their life. This book was super steamy and had a great story that was very easy to follow. The book was exciting, a little bit funny, and a real enjoyment to read. I love this 'Forbidden Fantasies' series and I can't wait for the next book to come out. I received a review copy of this story from the author and am leaving a voluntary honest review.

Maggie is Primrose's sister who is being kept close to home after her parents felt humiliated by her older sister's action. She is restricted to going to school and hanging out with her best friend. At school she is getting constantly bothered by her neighbor and captain of the football team. He just doesn't get that she isn't interested in an immature kid like him. She is much more attracted to his older and hotter dad. One night she catches the football captain watching her window. She decides to tease him with a sexy show and remind that he can't touch. Her show goes a little too hot and then at the end she notices that she had both father and son watching her. Maggie hopes that her show might attract the dad's interest.

Ed has been single for awhile but he has never found a woman he wants to make his. His son was the result of a one night stand when he was young. Seeing his neighbor's daughter put on such a sexy show gets his attention right away. He will do anything to get Maggie in his bed. After a few passionate encounters, he will everything to keep her there.

This was a very hot and steamy book. I received a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

Bait And Switch -
Maggie was only fooling around when she did the striptease, but what she did account for was the wild ride that it led to. It was meant to be to tease her classmate, but she inadvertently poked the big bear, Ed. Their romance may have been secret, but the consequences were real and this ended up creating a ripple in their lives, which they happily overcame.

The chemistry between Maggie and Ed was HOT enough to burn the pages and the storyline highlighted how their fate was sealed in the stars from their first interaction with each other. This was not your run of the mill romance story, but a genuine, heartfelt, messy and perfect love that left my heart dancing with joy.

Maggie is hot for her new neighbour. The problem is that it’s not for Corey who’s in her year at school but for his Dad, Ed. The lust remains hidden until Ed witnesses Maggie’s seductive striptease. All bets are off and they embark on a hot, sexy lust filled secret relationship. Ed wants to go public but Maggie’s parents are super strict and care more about what their friends think than anything else. Plus Corey fancies Maggie for himself not knowing what his Dad has been doing. After a shock at Prom things go awry and Maggie and Ed’s relationship is tested in more ways than one. This book was a brilliant read that I could not put down. I admired Maggie’s strength and her fun character. She and Ed get the HEA they deserve but nothing is ever easy.

Just when I don't think this series can get any better, Ms. Law releases another amazing story. I loved this one. I loved the forbidden nature of their romance. I didn't want it to end. I loved the interactions between Maggie and Ed.

Maggie is a senior in high school who impulsively did a striptease to her neighbor boy who is also in high school. She didn't realize at first that his father also saw the show. Ed can't believe what he saw. There is something about Maggie that draws him to her. Soon they are engaged in a secret relationship. She needs to finish high school before they come out into the open. That all changes one night. Will they find their happily ever after?

I received an ARC from the author/publisher for an honest review.

Maggie is Primrose's sister, and her parents are stricter with her because of what happened with her sister. So, one night she sees the boy next door at his window, and she does a little striptease. What she didn't expect was for his father to put in the yard watching her too. Ed is drawn to Maggie and wants to see her. When her parents leave together one day, he takes his chance and goes over to see her. Sparks fly between them and soon they give into temptation. What will her parents say if they find out about them? Can they be together?

This is an amazing story that once I started it I couldn't put it down. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Once again S.E. Law and S.C. Adams have brought a super hot sexy romance about Magnolia who we have read about in another story as the younger sister of Primrose, and her next door neighbour Ed. These two meet romantically after Maggi puts on a strip tease from her bedroom window. Their relationship is a clandestine affair but eventually makes a sudden public impression when they are caught at the Prom. They have a happily ever after and a baby on the way. It’s super smutty and lots of sexy times.

I was given an advanced copy of this book to read and review with my honest and fair opinion.

[Sherry Westendorf · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a fun, hot and emotional read. She thinks she is doing a strip tease out the window for the boy next door who is in high school like her. But oops it was his dad. Oh so embarressing but hot at the same time. The situation just get complicated in many ways after that. I received a review copy and voluntarily review it.

Maggie loves her boyfriend's Dad.

Maggie meets Ed, her boyfriend's Dad. She's always found him attractive. Especially when she stacks him up against her boyfriend. She does a strip tease in her bedroom in front of the window hoping to get a rise out of her boyfriend. But Ed sees her too. Now he wants a taste. Time to read the book.

[Tracy Jacobson · Rating 2 out of 5]

unbelievable characters

I’m guessing the author is young. Unbelievable dialogue throughout the story. The part about the school board meeting would NEVER happen, especially in an open meeting. The main characters had very little to recommend them. It was hard to get invested in this story.

[Shannon Cameron · Rating 4 out of 5]

This one is an age-gap romance between a new neighbor and his son’s classmate who are both still in high school. It’s over-the-top of course, but still fun.

I received this book as an ARC and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

[Karen · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an age gap read that is hot but still has a
story to tell.
Can’t say much about the plot without giving anything away
except to say it’s a page turner with a few twist you don’t see coming.
