Look But Don't Touch

Rate this book
Rule Number 1 of the guy code: never touch your best friend's daughter, especially when you've been asked to protect her while he's in jail for six months. But that's a whole lot easier said than done - especially when his daughter is a total knockout who should be signing with a modeling agency instead of applying to college.

But the way Becca looks at me...she's barely eighteen. Does she even know what she's doing? I swore an oath to protect her, not put my hands on her, but keeping that oath is getting harder every day. My desire is threatening to drive me insane. Do I hold true to my promise, or bind her to me no matter the consequences?

holy guacamole

Yeah, for about six months.” “What? What for!?” I can hardly believe what I’m hearing. “Accessory to grand theft auto—” “Grand theft auto!?” I blurt out, aghast. “Like the video game!?” “Accessory to,” Dad chuckles. “And no. No one was killed, and there were no strippers involved.” “Oh good,” I reply sarcastically. “At least there were no strippers involved! Dad, what were you doing stealing a car!?”-pg 9

This was the moment when I knew this book was going to make me giggle like a maniac. Shortly after this I did.

But a little background for the lovely people because I care about you so much.

The story

Our MC Becca’s dad got caught up in a bit of shenanigans and has to do some hard time. Yes, people the kind behind bars not behind the back of a park dumpster.

Pause !! COUGH COUGH !! 😷!!

Becca’s dad has a rough and tumble best friend who our MC becomes dangerously in love with. It started off so innocent then bing bam boom 🤯 she’s naked.
The problem is there are rules to sleeping with your bestie’s little girl and that’s Don’t !!! Our homeboy Dax isn’t the listening or the rule type so he blows Becca’s back out like a candle on a birthday cake 🎂!! Y’all know the vibes and we love it because there is just enough kink and comedy to keep us here and begging for more.
By now if you don’t know I am going to probably read this one a few more times because it was just that good 😊🥰😍😊!!

Special thanks to the lovely Jenna but y’all know I had to one click to give you highlights 😘🥰😍🥰!!

Happy reading ladies and gentlemen 📖 !!!

A quick daddy read.

This was a fast and pretty simple read from Jenna Rose. There honestly wasn’t a whole lot to it besides a bit of a daddy kink and the surprise of what Dax actually does for a living.

The heroine is a bit forward for me. I prefer them to be a bit more shy and naïve while this one set out from the first second to be a seductress.

A surprisingly safe read from this author. It was short, steamy and sweet with a twist of taboo on top!

Heroine is being looked after by her dads friend while he is in jail (for a crime he didn’t commit.) hero is smitten by heroine and tries to keep his distance, but love is a fierce and feral beast and won’t be tamed and it doesn’t take long for his will power to crumble.

Thankfully hero’s past isn’t mentioned, the hero doesn’t verbally abuse heroine or call her ugly names; he is a strong, dominant alpha male and there’s some slight daddy link. Heroine is a virgin and belongs only to the hero. There’s some slight OM drama from a pervy creep hitting on h, but H shuts that shit down. No cheating, no abuse of any kind between MCs. HEA with epilogue.

Hot and steamy in Daddy's bedroom! Older man, Dax (H38), and his best friend’s barely legal daughter, Becca (h18) are instantly attracted to one another and quickly fall into one another's arms. Hot and steamy action! Quick, fun, and dirty read to escape to! High heat factor that delivers a very satisfying HEA.

Quite a conundrum!

Our poor protagonist can’t seem to follow his buddy’s order! Keeping his hands off the hot daughter is a bridge too far, it seems. I really dug the constant inner turmoil he had.

This was a quick read. I never expected what Dax did for a living, totally surprised me. I felt a little let down that we did not get to see and hear the confrontation between dad and Dax. Wanted just a little bit more. And dad spent what, two days in jail? I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I kind of loved this story. It was short but entertaining and enjoyable with plenty of steam. The characters were interesting and likable for the most part. Travis was super annoying. Jerry and Dax both had to talk to Trevor after Becca had turned him down (nicely) many times, as he wasn't willing to take no as an answer. Jerry and Dax had been friends for a long time so when Jerry had to go away, he asked Dax to watch over his daughter Becca. Becca had never met Dax and didn't feel that she needed a babysitter but her dad wanted to make sure that she was safe. When Becca and Dax met face to face, they were instantly attracted to each other. Their relationship quickly explodes into an inferno. I loved their happy ever after. I recommend reading this book.

Becca’s dad was sent to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. While there he asked his friend, Dax, to take care of Becca. As soon as they saw each other it was instalove, instalust with a whole lot of chemistry. Forced to live together Dax could hold back how he felt, much as he tried. Now they just had to get Becca’s dad to understand! Hot, steamy, age gap romance with true love and a wonderful HEA. .

3.5 stars. Becca, the female lead, is a couple of days short of her 18th birthday when her father tells her he’s being sent to jail for a crime he didn’t commit. But he has organised his friend, Dax, the male lead, to look after her. The attraction between Becca and Dax is immediate but that would be a betrayal of her father’s trust…

This short story is dual POV, simply written and a hot Daddy tale.

When Dax tries his hardest to resist temptation, Becca goes out of her way to fire up Dax so he can claim her properly. A steamy age gap looking into this couple’s relationship and to see if Becca’s dad will accept his friend dating his daughter.

The feminism leaving my body after reading a Jenna Rose book …🏃🏻‍♀️💨

I really always shut off my morals after reading her books cause sometimes it gets just a teeny tiny bit misogynistic, very subtle almost unnoticeable ... BUT! I will forever love every book she puts out! And I LOVE age-gaps 😭❤️

He looked and touched

You'll like this story if you're looking for something quick and dirty with an age gap (20 years older), barely legal teenage virgin, possessive motorcycle guy, instalust/instalove, and daddy kink (not ageplay). No cheating, no cliffhanger, no angst, happily ever after.

WOW!! I couldn't put this one down. I absolutely love it!! This was a nice quick, short read.

Dax and Becca meet when he comes and stays with her when her father goes to prison for a crime he didn't commit. Becca is only seventeen but her birthday is two days away. Becca is always getting hit on by the guys one in particular Trevor. Becca's dad always has to warn the guys away from her, the day before her dad sits her down and tells her he'll be gone for six months. Her dad tells her he has an old buddy that will come and stay with her while he's away. When Dax arrives at Becca's home his dad warn him also to keep his hands to himself, but one look at he and he knows this can't happen. Dax escorts her dad to prison but before he takes him out for a steak dinner. Dax doesn't want to go back to the house seeing as he know she is to tempting. Becca make breakfast the next day and when she does up the dishes she tries to flirt with Dax, he knows he has to keep his hands to himself so he leaves for the day. When he comes back home he goes straight to bed, he hears a mans voice outside. Dax comes to find Trevor trying to get Becca to go with him, he puts a stop to that. When he goes back to bed he soon realizes it's Becca's birthday and now she's legal age. The next day she makes breakfast for them then Dax heads off telling her he has business to take care of. When he gets home, she asks him if he had a good day, he tells her he had to go. Dax steps close to her and they start kissing, he tells her she is beautiful. He begins to pleasure her, and then he tells her to pull him free. When she asks him if he's already come and he figures out she is serious, he asks her if she's ever done this before. Becca tells Dax no she's a virgin, he pulls himself back together and tells her he can't. He's suppose to be watching her she's his best buds daughter. When Dax wakes the next morning he finds a note Becca left for him, she went to hang out with Trevor. Dax goes from house to house until he finds where Trevor lives. His mother answers the door and she tells him he's probably down by the river. When Dax finds Becca he tells her to come with him, they're going home. Becca starts to argue and Trevor jump in to help but Dax tells her to come on. When they get home Dax asks her if she thinks she is cute playing that game with him. She tells him he had his chance last night and he passed on it. Dax tells her she is right and he won't make that mistake again. Dax grabs Becca and they start kissing. Dax tells her he's going to teach her everything she needs to know. He strips her on her bottoms than pleasures her. Dax tells her he needs to be inside her, he can't wait any longer. They go to her father's room, Dax asks her permission before he thrusts into her promising to be gentle. The next day Becca wakes in Dax's arms, they head into the shower and clean each other. They make breakfast together, Dax tells her he wants to take her someplace after they eat. Dax takes Becca on his motorcycle to a factory, she asks him why they're there. Dax tells her to come inside and he'll show her, the place is empty. All the employees had the day off, he shows Becca a jar of sauce. It's what he's been working on, his mother's recipe. Soon it'll be in all grocery stores. Becca takes a taste and tells him it's the best she's ever had. Soon Dax's phone is ringing and when he looks at it he realizes it's Becca's dad calling. Becca's dad wants Dax to come so he can talk to him. When he arrives he finds out her dad knows who set him up and where the money is hidden he just needs Dax to go and get it before someone else does. Five days later, Becca paces the living room waiting for her dad to come home, she told Dax she wants to be the one to tell her father about them. Where her dad comes in the house, she throws herself into his arms and hugs him. When she steps back she notices Dax is standing outside, he says hay baby to her, and she questions him. Her dad tells her he already knows, then she notices Dax has a black eye. Becca asks her dad if he's okay with this, and he tells her he's not sure. Her dad asks her if she loves Dax, and before she can say anything, Dax tells him he loves her. When her dad tells Dax he didn't asks him he asks Becca she tells him yes she loves him. Her dad tells them that's good enough for him, he knows Dax will take care of his baby girl. Five years later, they have a son, Jacob. Becca is working on a new recipe, she helps out a lot at the factory before their son was born. Then she started working from home, her dad helps out too, he's head of production. The only one's that know the recipe are Dax, Becca and her dad so that it all stays in the family. Dax may have broken his promise to Becca's dad but this is where he's meant to be.

This is only the 2nd book I've read of this series, but what is up with the characters going to jail for stealing cars when they didn't even do it? I'm curious to know if this is something that happens in all the books lol.

Unlike the first one, I am not looking past the issues. Starting with the fact that she was being harassed by this guy named Trevor, was supposedly afraid of him and what he might do to her because of her rejecting him a bunch of times, but then willingly goes to hang out with the guy to make Dax jealous? Tf? And the whole thing with her dad going to jail then figuring out what actually happened and getting out a few days later was so absurd. But so is everything in the book.

Don't go into this expecting a buildup or romance or anything other than insta-lust. She sees him and is instantly tryna seduce him, having not known the man but like five seconds. Nothing happens until she's 18 (literally her birthday is like two days after they meet so it's not a long wait) but once it does all of a sudden they are in love, he wants to impregnate her, and yada yada. Because I read one other book in this series, I'm assuming this is the gist of every book - the speed of which everything happens, I mean. There's no real logic behind anything; it's very obvious the whole point is the smut.

I mean, if you are looking for something with extremely low angst, virtually no ow/om drama, and that's short and based solely on smut (just be warned there's not a lot of it because of how short it is), go for it.

I liked this one less than the other one just because the whole jealousy drama thing isn't my cup of tea, and everything that happened felt even more illogical in this book than the last. I'll give it a solid 2 stars.

Dax’s old friend asks him to watch over his daughter, who will turn eighteen in two days, for six months. He was going to jail for a crime he didn't commit. He agrees, without ever meeting, Becca before, to stay at his pal's place to watch over her.

We know this is a short, gap book, no surprises there. The story is meant, to move along quickly. So, hold on, it does. The minute Dax and Becca, see each other, it’s an instant connection.

Why wouldn’t be? A large sexy biker and a young tiny petite curvy girl who is a virgin. Yup, no problems here. Daddy just led the fox into the hen house.

Like Becca had said if, he was such a good friend, how come her dad had never mentioned, him or introduced them before?

Fun, fast, and funny read. You might enjoy reading.

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
Look but don’t touch is a novella in the ‘’filthy dirty desires’’ collection.
This story is short, fast paced and an enjoyable read. I read this book in one sitting and was satisfied throughout. I found the writing style easy to follow, the characters likeable and the storyline enjoyable. When Becca’s dad is sent to jail, his best friend comes to stay. Dax is attracted to Becca but will he go there with her friend’s daughter?
The chemistry between Dax and Becca is clear to see and I liked them together. I have to admit; I did find Becca a little cringey at first.
I liked the ending and the storyline for this book!
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

Dax was contacted by his friend who had a big favor to ask him. His friend was framed for something he didn't do and was going to be sent to Jail for six months. He asks Dax to move into his trailer and keep an eye on his teenaged daughter while he is locked up. Dax agrees thinking it will be an easy task but then he sees Becca. She is everything he has ever wanted in a woman except for the fact that she has just turned 18. She also seems determined to catch Dax's eye. Maybe looking and not touching will be a lot hard than he ever imagined.. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I received an ARC from the author and am voluntarily leaving my review. This is another good book in the multi author Filthy Dirty Desires series. It is exactly how you expect, with that instant attraction and falling hard and fast. Dax was to watch over her for her father. He and Becca felt that connection from the first moment and denying it was pointless. Their story has a little drama but the heat between them is scorching. Short and steamy with some sweetness in there . I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

The next six months lead to the rest of their lives

Look But Don't Touch by Jenna Rose is part of the multi-author Filthy Dirty Desires and it delivers on that. This story is a mix of dirty naughty raw passion with some light humor and fun. Dax is moving into his best friend's house for the next six months to look after his friend's daughter. Becca is about to turn eighteen in two days when her Dad has to go to jail for the next six months. So in moves Dax and lets just say he and Becca are about to become really close roommates while Daddy is away.

Jenna Rose is one of the reigning queens of steamy, insta-love romance and she definitely delivers with Look But Don’t Touch. This is a fun and quick read that will have you rooting for this unlikely couple. Dax does his best to abstain from forbidden fruit but the chemistry is strong, the temptation too sweet and eventually fireworks erupt. I loved this book and highly recommend this author’s work..

This was a steamy dad’s best friend romance with a little daddy kink. The story was really over the top but I enjoyed it. Dax and Becca had great chemistry and they were very steamy together which I liked. The story had some taboo elements that could be off putting for some but for me it was a good short read..

Dax and Becca were really good together. Dax knows that he shouldn't want Becca and he tries to stay away yet when Becca sets up a "plan" for him, he falls for. Becca has never felt drawn to someone as she is with Dax and she is willing to want it takes to get and keep her man. I enjoyed this book and I would recommend it and Ms. Jenna as a great author.

This is a wonderful and dirty story. Older man younger woman with a bit of a daddy twist. Becca's dad is going to Jail so he asks his friend Dax to watch his daughter. The attraction is instant and strong. This is a quick and dirty read. There is a story there also. I was hooked and before I knew it the book ended. The characters where great and their interaction wonderful. Just a great book. . I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Becca is just a couple days away from turning eighteen, when her dad tells her he has to go to jail for six months. His friend Dax is coming to stay with her while he is gone. Dax was not expecting his reaction to Becca, she is his best friend's girl.

Dax manages to stay away from her until she turns eighteen, after that he cannot hold back anymore. This story has lots of heat, next to no drama.

Ok, so this book was not the worst in the series. I think The worst part was the idea that dad goes to jail for a crime he didn’t commit, but some how has enough time to let his daughter know and just be dropped off at the jail the next day 🤔 and then magically he knows where the evidence to get out is. And then one black eye and he’s good with his friend having sex with his daughter and wanting to be with her. But the epilogue was a nice touch.
