I'll Be Taking This

Rate this book
Spring Break is for wild girls.

I really don’t know why I’m here.

This is not my scene.

The excessive drinking, the half-naked bodies, the horrible decisions being made. Ugh.

I’d rather be studying.

So, when my friends throw me on stage for a wet t-shirt contest, I nearly die.

Hundreds of people are watching as the MC approaches with the water jugs to show off my jugs.

That’s when I see him.

Jackson.

Charging through the crowd like a nuclear bomb about to go off.

First, I feel the possessiveness in his eyes.

Then, I feel his hands on me, grabbing me, throwing me over his shoulder, stealing me away.

Saving me.

He’s the rich owner of the hotel and he’s not having any of this.

It’s not the wet t-shirt contest that he’s against.

It’s the hundreds of people watching.

He still wants me to get wet, but it will be for an audience of one.

Just me, him, a tight white shirt, and a big ole jug of water.

That’s a contest I don’t mind entering.



One look at Ella and this hot rich alpha will become totally obsessed! Nothing or no one is going to keep him from his girl.

Insta-love at its finest in a SAFE read with no cheating and a super sweet HEA guaranteed. Double V-cards. Enjoy!

MOST USED WORD: Big Titts.
2nd MOST USED WORD: MINE.


🟥 OTT ALERT 🟥


🚩You know i had my fingers crossed, praying that "God, please don't let him be more than 40.PLEASE. 🙏"


🚩He is NOT 40. But yeah, there's at least 10 year age-gap between MCs.

🚩She is.......maybe 20 or 21.

🚩He is...........i'm guessing 30.

🚩It's not mentioned clearly so.......that was just a guess.

The Man Candy/Hotel owner-Jackson Connor~



The Shy Virgin/Senior in College-Ella-




😝 “This is part of your fucking job!” he whines. “Consorting with the guests. Chatting them up. Making them feel welcome. And maybe, you know, asking if they’ll suck on the hotel manager’s pecker, just for a bit.”
I sigh as I turn back to the window. He’ll never understand. Daniel was the type of guy who was in love with every girl we passed. He even had a crush on our bus driver and she had a mullet. He can’t grasp the concept of waiting for the one. He doesn’t understand that my girl is out there and I’m only interested in her.
😝

~Virgin h.
~VIRGIN H.😍And he's EFFING OBSESSED to claim his girl
~No-Cheating.
~No-sex scene with OP.
~No-Separation.
~TOTALLY safe.

✅OW Drama-*Some girls were eying him. And the hs VERY mean cousin, made a pass on the H.
*He obviously rejected.
✅OM drama-*A stupid frat boy made a pass at h.
*The guy ended up on the wrong side of the fist of H.

She’s with a group of friends, but at least they’re all girls. I couldn’t handle her staying in a room with a guy. I’d burn my hotel down before I let that happen.
I know immediately that she’s the one. The obsession is taking me over. It’s blinding. It’s all-consuming. I can feel it creeping through my body, cementing into every cell—this intense possessive need to own her.


🥵As ALWAYYYYYYYS the sex is effing haawwwwwtttt 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

🖤What i did NOT like about this book-

1️⃣It ended too soon.

3️⃣It would have been nice, if the plot was a little stretched. I mean........they DID cuddle after the first sex, but we aren't straight up TOLD that. One second they are having sex, the other, they are getting ready for a date.


4️⃣They DID get to know each other, but we don't actually READ any interaction between them.

5️⃣All they do is BANG-BANG-BANG. If the book would have been .......say.........even 10 pages longer, i think that i would have liked the characters more.

6️⃣And idk, if i shud have a problem with Ella being a shy-little virgin on the stage, but as soon as she is alone for the FIRST time with Jackson Connor, she starts dancing like a stripper. Grew a spine too fast.


I turn and nearly collapse when I see her standing there in her bikini bottoms and short white shirt. Her dark hair is pulled back in a ponytail, big thick-rimmed glasses on her face, flip-flops gone off her bare feet.
I love her. I’m obsessed with her. I want to fuck her in every position, in every hole, in every corner of this penthouse before I can even think of letting her out.
I’m not above keeping her locked in here. I’m not above tying her up. I’ll do anything to show her that she’s mine.<?i>


His eyes widen as I strut up to him and arch my back, pressing my big tits about an inch away from his face. He licks his lips as I turn around and lower my ass onto his lap. I feel his hard cock right away. The old Ella I was before I met Jackson would have ended this right about now, but the new Ella is spurred on by it. He groans as I start rubbing my ass against his big dick in a circular motion.
“Oh fuck,” he whispers as I stand back up and turn around.
My pussy is burning. I want more than my nipples exposed now. I want him to see everything.


✅HEA

✅Epilogue-😍Married with Kids.

“You’re amazing, Ella,” he says in that rich sexy voice before he pulls my mouth to his.
My eyes fall closed as I feel his lips press against mine, warm and soft and wet. I moan as I feel his tongue sliding into my mouth, giving me my first kiss ever.
It’s a soft, slow, nice kiss. At first.
.



So many feelings and emotions are ripping through me as I watch her—possessiveness, desire, lust, greed, love, obsession. I’m completely obsessed with this girl. I know that now. I know there’s not going to be ten minutes that go by where I don’t think about her. She’s going to be implanted at the forefront of my mind for the rest of my damn life..

This one was a little better then the last book i enjoyed Jackson and Ella a lot.. i do wish Ella would’ve stand up for herself more against her bullies.. she was a door mat.

Let’s start off Ella was a good girl always focused and she wants to have a little fun so she goes with her mean roommate on vacation for spring break.. they are so cruel to her they ignore her make her sleep in a cot as they get nice beds..make her eat alone..and when she finds out they only invited her for a group discount…. Girl I would’ve left.. Ella was a push over for these girls even at the beach they forced her to be in a wet tshirt contest like it was so mean how they acted over one reason.. one girls boyfriend looked at her.. that’s why all 4 girls hated her… enough of that drama before anything can happen she’s rescued by Jackson the owner of the hotel when he spots her. He goes super possessive and takes her away and they have there moments between them… girl even gave him his own wet t shirt contest. Only he can see..

Beside that it was pretty much fluff.. and Jackson kicking out the mean girls..

No om drama tiny ow drama, no cheating, sexy times, both virgins

Recommend-maybe

How to Spoil a Nerdy Girl

Ella may have been invited to Daytona for Spring Break as a "human coupon" but she gets the last laugh when Jackson sets his sights on her.

This book is insanely over-the-top. It's mostly fun, occasionally annoying, and seriously steamy. 😄🔥 In addition to the double V's that aren't fumbling at all, I also like the responses of those around Jackson and Jackson's response to Ella's bullies. One of my favorite parts of Olivia T. Turner's books are the extended epilogue. Dirty, sweet, and fun! ❤

This entire book felt like a joke. I for one did not stop laughing the entire way through. I mean there’s no way this author is serious right? What was that garbage?? I want my time back and I want my memory erased.

There was so much misogyny and pick me girl behaviour it was vile. The main character especially was not constant like she starts out nearly afraid of her own shadow wanting to go home and hide to being an expert on lap dancing and teasing lmao there wasn’t even any explanation for this new behaviour except the love interest practically coercing her to give him what he wants.
Bottom line is that it felt like a man wrote this book for his own enjoyment😂

85 page novella w jessa kane energy except the hero isn’t self deprecating. she’s on spring break, he’s the rich guy who owns the resort. he’s a billionaire virgin bc he hasn’t met “the one” yet and he believes in fate. the literal first moment he lays eyes on her (from his high rise window while she’s down on the beach) he knows she’s the one. commence “you’re mine” on repeat for the next 62 pages.

Ella no sabe por qué está haciendo este viaje, y menos con esas cuatro que la han ignorado y critado todo el camino. La culpa es de su hermana por insistir en que la universidad no es solo estudiar. Pero las cosas se vuelven aún peor cuando llegan a su destino. Forzada a participar en un concurso de camisetas mojadas, Ella solo espera la tremenda humillación... Pero nada sucede, o sí, termina siendo atrapada por el dueño del hotel y el único concurso y el único juez será él.

ESTE SI QUE SI lo he disfrutado. Pensé que había perdido mi amor por las historias cortas pero nop. Y aquí está la prueba. Me ha encantado y me ha hecho pasar el rato como debería. Gracias a Dios por la vuelta de mi ansia lectora 🤣

This was short and sweet and totally sexy.
The plot was simple, but there was just enough drama to make it interesting.
The sex was hot and dirty.
Both characters are virgins, though there’s zero awkwardness. The lust is too overpowering for that. Lol.
Jackson is that classic Turner Over-the-top, possessive, obsessed, insatiable alpha that I love from her.

Smutty goodness.
I wish we got a little more of it, but I’m just greedy like that.

It’s so bad that I want to give it a zero… but that’s not possible… so I give you… a one.

All jokes aside I think it’s safe to say I’m not into Insta-love. Like at all. Add that in with bullying and immature adults? 🚮

Not for me

The couple: Jackson and Ella

Romance genre: insta-love
Length: 86 pages

Plot: Ella goes on Spring Break with some of her classmates (she's in college), but she isn't having a good time. She's not a party animal to begin with, and her so-called friends are horrible and mean. Once at the hotel, they force her into a wet T-shirt contest, but before she can be soaked, Jackson, the owner of the hotel, spies her from his window and he races down to save her.

Commentary: Aw, a classic tale of wet T-shirt contests and Spring Break shenanigans!
My one complaint was that I couldn't get a good sense of Jackson's age (maybe I just missed it?). But since he was , surely he can't be that much older than Ella.

FUUUUEEEGGGOOOO!!!!

SOOOOO over the top, but so fun! I can always depend on O.T.T to deliver the steamy sweetness—a dominant alpha hero who falls HARD for his sweet, innocent girl, 100% devoted, possessive and protective, willing to do whatever it takes to claim and keep her. Ahhh the swoon!

Totally safe. Double virgins. No others, no cheating or abuse. Lots of baby making. HEA with epilogue decades out

Holy Alpha man running onto to the stage to snatch his woman off the stage at a wet t-shirt contest. Ella does not want to be on stage but was pushed there by her “friends”. But Jackson is on a mission, grab her, get her off that stage and make her his.
A hot short story with lots of growling and caveman chest thumping going on 💜

Jackson and Ella

Another sweet, steamy, OTT instalove story from Olivia T. Turner. If you love a sexy alpha male that doesn't let anything stand in his way of getting his girl, then you will love, " I'll Be Taking This". Full of steam and sweetness.

You go into these books knowing it’s going to be pretty unbelievable, but this one was so beyond the point of sanity that I couldn’t even take it. For starters, the roommates were the most unbelievable part. There’s no way any of that would have ever happened in reality. I know plenty of mean girls and they can be awful, but god that was just so beyond real it was painful.
Secondly, I’m all for Insta-love, but a proposal on the first day?? Absolutely not.

I am voluntarily reviewing an advanced reader copy of this book.


Ella has been focused on her schoolwork for so long she has no idea what fun looks like anymore so when her roommate invites her on a trip for spring break, she decides to grab the bull by the horns and take a chance on having some fun, it soon becomes apparent that she was only asked to make up the numbers and that all the other girls are set on making her life miserable. Ella is wishing she had stayed at home with her kindle instead she is now being subjected and forced to take part in a wet t-shirt competition, only for a man conjured by her dreams picking her up off the stage and charging off with her. Who is the god like man and why would he be interested in her?

Jackson had everything you could possibly want money, good looks and a successful business, there is only one thing missing and that is the one, he has been searching for her for what feels like forever and so far, she has alluded him. His hotel is packed out with college students having a good time, that’s when he spots her, he knows with one look that she is the one that he has been looking for and nothing and no one is going to keep him from her. When he sees her on that stage about to be doused in water for the wet t-shirt competition, he becomes possessed. Will he get to her in time to save her modesty and will he be able to convince her that she is the woman he has waited for?


Fast insta-everything story with lots of steam. Jackson was an intense character but knew that she was the woman he had waited for the minute he spots her. It was another fantastic read by Ms. Turner and she always delivers on a book that I can escape into. 4.2* Read

My reviews always contain spoilers, I write them so I can remember the story.

Super fast instalove, Jackson made his millions in bitcoin and now owns a hotel in Florida that is hosting college students on spring break. They are everywhere drinking and being crazy. He spots Ella when her mean roommates push her on stage for a wet T-shirt contest. She’s a self proclaimed nerd who only got invited when another girl dropped out of the trip. He swoops in and grabs her before the host pours water on her. He takes her up to his penthouse suite and he pours water on her T-shirt. Ella went from shy introverted nerd to sex kitten in the blink of an eye. They have unprotected sex, they are both virgins but Jackson doesn’t tell her he hasn’t ever had sex. She doesn’t ask his history. Confrontation with mean girls and Jackson kicking them out of his hotel. I love yous, a proposal, and Jackson moving to Boston to be with Ella until she graduates. Epilogue nine months later with him adding her name to his hotel and the plan to buy more hotels. Thirty years later with grown kids and them both still very sexually active.

Another fun ride from OTT. I feel like these books get more and more addicting the longer you read them. I’m very okay with that.

Ella is a sweet and shy college senior who got roped into spring break with 4 awful girls. As Ella puts it, she’s a human coupon so they can get a group rate. These other four girls are truly horrendous. Jackson is the owner of the hotel they are staying at. He always keeps to himself and can’t be bothered with woman. Until he sees Ella. Then the signature OTT growly alpha takes over. When he sees Ella, he knows he has to have her. These two were nice and steamy together.

I quite enjoyed Jackson in this. He was pushy but not in an overtly obnoxious way. He got his point across without some of the high-handed tactics we’ve seen before in these books. Ella flourished beautifully with Jackson. There was also a good dose of comeuppance for Ella’s so-called friends.

We got a little bit of a lot with I’ll Be Taking This and I definitely wasn’t disappointed with the epilogues.

There is only one sentence to describe this book: "Damn, it was so steamy I think I combusted".
Ella and Jackson are a match made in heaven. She is this shy, innocent nerdy kind of girl, that learns it is okay to let loose, and to stand up for herself. I love, that she is a huge Harry Potter fan, with nerdy glasses and womenly curves.
Jackson is described as a total hunk, and my first thought was "Arg, he is going to be such a douche". But it turns out that he is the nicest, carring and protective man ever.
If you are looking for a steaming hot, love at first sight book, that gives you butterflies and tingles then you have to read this book.

Our heroine is on Spring Break, but she is like a fish out of water. And when her friends try to break her out of her shell, our hero is having none of it. He wants her for himself.

This is a short and steamy romance set on Spring Break. The story is well written and easy to read with a fun cast of characters. I really liked both our hero and heroine as they were well done and went together very well. Their was nice bit of humor and steam along the way which made for a very enjoyable evening read.

Highly recommended.

Ella and Jackson are on fire! I’ll Be Taking This is an InstaLove romance treat! A quick and easy romance read. Jackson is an alpha male who once he finds his woman, takes no prisoners. Ella is a smart cookie, once she meets her man, she’s all in. This is the perfect read in one sitting, naughty romance read. I’m giving it the judy.ann.loves.books stamp of approval, TBR and!

Good

Safety and Spoilers

Safe. No ow/om drama.
Both are virgins, I just wish he told her he was a virgin too. It’s a trend in books where guys really don’t tell the h.
h’s so called friends treat her horribly and push her onto the stage to partake in a wet t-shirt contest. h tries to fight but it’s 4 against 1. The MC should be fired for not putting a stop to it, the H needs to hire better people.
Wasn’t a fan of the H’s best friend, he’s like a little leech who is just using the H.
No abuse by the H and no cheating.

Not my usual jam, but I got lured in by the title and cover. Silly and ridiculous, but also cute. Perhaps a bit too much caveman going on. Pretty sure the first and only story I’ve read with an epilogue set 30y in the future. Loved the dedication. It was oddly touching and very appreciated. Thank you, Olivia Turner. It's good to be seen :)

It is what it is

If you just want a lot of erotica, voila! It started cute with some genuinely humorous lines that I would have liked more of, but here we are. My fault, I suppose. I have read a few Turner books that actually had a little more plot and I enjoyed. Hope springs eternal for more of those.
