Wealthy Bachelors #1
Corbin
• CORBIN •
My little sister’s friend has grown to be nothing less than a sin…
Hazel Watson is a pure vision—not to say she wasn’t one when our paths crossed nearly five years ago now…
But the girl I’m staring at certainly isn’t the knobby-kneed, curly-haired friend I recall of my sister’s, with wide eyes and giant glasses.
And the second our eyes lock, it’s clear I’m entering a dangerous game by agreeing to stay in the same house as her—and for a week.
A week of trying to resist, trying to refrain from what I know is bound to only come with time.
She’s my sister’s best friend, and I’m nearly forty…old enough to be her father, for heaven’s sake.
But I can’t seem to care or want to deny the pleasure of making little Hazel Watson all mine…
Forever.
If you swoon for age gap romances packed with nothing but steam and spice, then you’ll fall in love with Corbin and Hazel’s story! Each book in this series is a standalone read.

So even though this is called book one in a series, it is not a book but a short story. It’s a fairly decent well paced story for how short it is (reads in under an hour) but there are some timeline issues that stand out. There is a 17 year age difference for the couple but she has memories of him at 20 and he remembers her being in high school while he is in college. This is not chronologically possible as she wouldn’t have memories at 2 and he would have been long out of college when she hit high school. I think this book could’ve developed into a full novel as there was much detail and story to be told that kind of gets wrapped up in the epilogue, not sure why the author didn’t go for it and write a full book.

I enjoyed these characters and this story, but felt I missed out on way too much between the last chapter and epilogue. Would have loved more to the story. It’s a cute how they met tale..

Corbin is book one of the Wealthy Bachelors series...........
A VERY short story, Corbin is a billionaire that has reached his limit in the overworked category of his extremely successful business, he finally comes to the realization there is more to life than work... He heads home to his parents beach house to spend a week ....relaxing, to get away. He arrives to discovers his sister’s and Hazel one of the twin sisters best friend from high school days is going to be there as well, he seems to remember Hazel as pretty much a geeky book worm, stayed in the background, and very quiet, wore big rimmed glasses..........
Corbin gets to the beach house and says hi to everyone......... ok not so bad he can still make this work...........get some rest, relax, no work etc....... when Hazel walks in........ he seems to be in lust and awe..... with the barely of age college student ...... Little Miss Geeky Hazel Has Grown Up…and has she ever! ........Even though he is at least at 10 to 13 yrs older than her, cause it states he was in college as she was just starting high school ......... it doesn’t take long at all and they discover the chemistry between them is undeniable. I did enjoy this story but it was like .... getting somewhere
and then .....BAM !! you have the ending / epilogue. It felt like the story was missing out on a lot of what could have happened between their meeting ...sexual exploits,..graduation and the end ..... way way short and somewhat a waste of reading time......... for this reader .......

Steamy Age-Gap Romance
Corbin Sawyer, founder and CEO of a tech giant known for developing apps has been so concentrated on work that he has not been to his parent's beach house in Dawson Point for years. His mother caught him off guard and now he’s going for a week. It’s a full house with his sisters and Hazel Watson, his one sister’s best friend, visiting as well. The last time Hazel and Corbin saw each other was five years ago at her and his sisters’ high school graduation. That was only a glimpse before he headed back to the city. She is nothing like he remembers, and she may be 17 years his junior, but that does not stop him from craving her now. This is a well written short insta-love steamy romance with sweetness, humor and fun twists. Great start to series.
I received an ARC of this book from the author in return for voluntarily writing an honest review.

I really enjoyed this short story. It was entertaining and enjoyable although the scene after they were together seemed odd. The characters were interesting and likable even when they were being ornery. Julie seemed like a great best friend although she liked to be ornery when she got together with her sisters and some wine. Hazel and Julie had been best friends for a long time. Corbin was Julie's older brother. He hadn't been around a lot because of the age difference between him and the girls. When Corbin and Hazel see each other for the first time in years, both of them are surprised by their attraction to the other. I liked how the story ended but I would have liked an epilogue further out too. I recommend reading this book.

Our hero tries to resist, but daily temptation can wear any man down. Particularly when that temptation wants him too.
This is part of a series but each story is written as a standalone, so no prior reading is required.
The is a short and steamy story with an age-gap theme. The story is well written and easy to read with a fun cast of characters. Both the hero and heroine are well developed and likeable. There may be an obstacle or two to overcome, but they both want the same thing, so it is going to happen. And the result is nice and steamy. Overall, a highly enjoyable story and I look forward to more in this series.
Highly recommended.

Great story. I liked Corbin, an overworked billionaire, who gets surprised by his attraction to Hazel, his sister's friend. This is one of my favorite tropes and my only complaint is that I wish it had been a little longer. Their chemistry was really good and I would have liked to have read more about them. A chapter or two more, describing their trip or how they revealed their relationship would have been great. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Corbin is hotter than hot and I loved every moment. The older billionaire, Corbin, and the younger friend of his sister, Hazel, have quite the time during a family vacation. A slightly steamy scene one night when neither can sleep is followed quickly by an incredibly hot scene after they play never have I ever. The book also has a sweet ending that I really enjoyed. The characters are terrific and this book will provide all the feels in one sitting.

Hazel has a crush on her best friends brother Corbin who comes into town on a short visit. Book was very short age gap story. Not sure if I want to consider it a love story or not because they didn’t really mention love from what I read.

Corbin & Hazel - Corbin is an over-worked billionaire with a successful business. He hasn’t had time to commit to a relationship. Until he spots his sister’s best friend, Hazel, all grown up. Their chemistry is undeniable. It doesn’t take long for Corbin to approach Hazel at his family’s beach house one night to make his move.

A very enjoyable age gap romance. Nice characters. Nice story. Just not enough depth for me. I like even my short stories to have a little something special. A little extra oomph. Still 4 stars bc I really liked it.

The author has given us a wonderful older man/younger woman story that pulls us into the lives of Corbin and Hazel. She may be the best friend of his sister, but he is drawn to her and wants her in his life.

too short
I felt a lot of information was missing from the story line. Too short and it wasn’t satisfying to read.
