Sealed with a Kiss

by Alexa Riley

When Parker orders a battery-operated boyfriend, she doesn’t mean to send it to her brand new boss. Having him open it is scary enough, but having him deliver it to her? Catastrophic. That is, until he makes her a deal she can’t refuse.

Samuel might have gotten her order by accident, but he’s not willing to give it up just yet. In fact, she can’t have it until she’s ready to show him how she uses it.

Warning: His package is what she wants, and her box is the only thing that will satisfy his needs. If we can’t make puns about mail delivery, what’s even the point of life?!

This novel is sweet and tender. I have nothing more to say.
P.S. I want those vibes of the heroine, how she felt and behaved with this guy Liam in the first chapter. I want such a book, only that the heroine behaves like this with the hero, and he pursues her!

The story starts with:

She sent her new boss a dildo

So her boss decides to "scold her" but also return her the dildo at the same time. And this is how he scolds:

Tell me, Parker. Why did you purchase it? I change tactics because I don’t want her to be afraid

HR will be disappointed about your ass, Samuel.

It turns all predatory when:

What would you give me for my silence?

Slimey Samuel wanted something in return for the secret to remain it so he asked:

I want to watch you cum on that dildo

😬

The next day, Parker was nervous at work because she wanted to do what he insisted but at the same time she was not ready. Of course boss is so warm enough to help her:

Maybe instead, you let me see a little something now. That way when it’s time to go, you won’t feel so shy

This sounded stupid and yet it actually happened where he made her come against his thigh. On top of it, after she shared that she didn't like her internship:

I love to read, but I’m not sure I could actually write, though

and that she would rather read, Samuel told her to:

Your assignment today is to write a chapter

and he doesn't sound so bad for this aspect, can he pay me to read too?

How does it happen that Samuel is there right behind her when Parker gets into an accident? Is this another episode of Joe? And the reason of being a 'Fiancé' is perfect when the paramedics ask Parker who is Samuel? I mean 😬

It's more alarming when Samuel decided that Parker should lose her V to a dildo rather than him:

Look at that sweet cherry getting in the way. Push it in real quick and pop it for me

because he's 'too big'. New trait unlocked.
She seemed to like it though because:

All I can think about is the crazy hot sex we had last night and how I want to do it again and again

and from there on in classic AR style it was happily ever after.

Interesting start and AR's new style seems to only contain one sex scene until the end.

It was nice.......he was nice, she was nice, the best friend was nice.

The plot was the virrgin h getting a job as an intern for a rich dude and they eff 😂😂 he was protective and sweet and sees only her as his future wife and mother of his kids. 🤷

They mentioned Costco and their rotisserie chicken and I was like "I LOVE Costco and that $5 chicken! And their slippers!" And then they didn't mention Costco again and I was sad

"Sealed with a Kiss" is the story of Parker and Sawyer.

When our heroine orders a B.O.B, she never expects it would be delivered to her new boss's address.. at an internship she has yet to begin! Ofcourse, one look and he is smitten, asking permission to see her use her toy. Some daddy drama later, we get a HEA!

It was OK but I enjoyed book 2 more!

Safe
2.5/5

The predator vibe was disturbing.

[Lauren · Rating 5 out of 5]

First things first; I like the cover of this book!
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 Parkers package gets sent to her new boss, she is mortified. Samuel is intrigued and confused by the package he receives. When he goes to meet the package owner what will happen?
The chemistry between Parker and Samuel is clear to see and I liked them together. I thought they were perfect for one another.
I loved Parker’s friendship with Lexi!
I hated the way Parker’s parents treated her.
I liked the ending and the epilogue for this story.
The storyline for this book is easy to follow and it is an enjoyable read.

I kept scrolling back up thinking I must've zoned out while reading because it felt like I missed a bunch of stuff. It was messy and felt disconnected, I couldn't even finish it. But since it's Alexa Riley I don't have the heart to give it only one star.

[Tiffany Shaw · Rating 4 out of 5]

After coming off a really intense series I desperately needed a light read. This was a sweet, light, sexy read. Alexa Riley books are always a perfect fit. Sammy and Parker were adorable and watching them fall in love was deliciously sweet. 4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for a good girl.

3.5 stars. Damn, Samuel was so freaking sexy and sweet! Loved him!

[Mia · Rating 3 out of 5]

I really don’t know how to rate this book…

So Parker’s dad, gets her a internship in the company he works for.
Her father (parents) is very controlling of her life. Basically making every decision concerning her future with no concern for her wishes whatsoever!

The day before the internship begins Parker buys a battery operated boyfriend (for the first time in her life!) because a best friend is pushing her to be more spontaneous. Instead of sending the BOB to her dorm, she sends it to the company she’s going to start working for…
How does she knew the address by heart? Why did she even got the addresses so wrong to begin with?

And then the package is delivered to her boss… to her bosses house… because his name was in the receivers address… right.

Now, I’d have taken those details and chalked it up to “book fantasy” or poor story build up, because this is a short book so I was just looking for something fun and sweet, but then the author slams us in the face with a hero that legit makes the heroine promise to masturbate and come, so he can watch, in order for him to keep his mouth shut about the BOB situation.

The rest of the story was sweet tho.
The hero is sweet and very protective of the heroine and wants her to be happy and go after her dreams.
The polar opposite of her family.
So I guess this wasn’t my favorite read, but it wasn’t half bad.

[Sarah Cupitt · Rating 4 out of 5]

Wasn't sure what I expected plot wise but it wasn't all that bad. HR secrecy always has an aspect of appeal. Using fake book sleeves to hide what you're reading seems a decent idea - they need a feature like that for GoodReads.

Fav parts/someone do this to me:
- “What do you read?” I duck my head, feeling shy again. I’ve never been open about what I read, and I hide my books in the sleeves of others so no one knows what I’m ever reading. Samuel’s finger goes to my chin, gently forcing me to lift my head. “Tell me,” he orders. “Romance.” A slow, sexy smile spreads across his face. “Perfect.” He drops his hand, making his way over to his desk. He pulls a laptop out and brings it back over to me. “Your assignment today is to write a chapter.”
- “Take your praise with eyes on me.” I run my tongue over my bottom lip as I watch her. “I want to see how much you like it.

Funny notes:
- It’s strange because the more I look at it, the more I wonder what it would feel like to use it on a woman. Fuck, it’s been so long, I’m imagining me putting a dildo in a woman instead of my cock. “I’ve always considered these teammates more than an enemy,” I say as I turn the package over. “But right now, I’m jealous this was meant to get fucked tonight.” “You and me both,” Asher grunts.

Smut notes:
- When I spin around, I almost run right into Samuel. Where the hell did he come from? “My office,” he orders. “Now?” “Yes, now.”
- “Let me tell you what to do and then see if you like it,” I whisper just low enough for her to hear, and she only hesitates for a second before she nods.
- “Look how pretty you are.” I brush her hair over her shoulder and then slide my hands down her sides reverently. When I get to her waist, I stop there and grip her hips tightly. “Let’s see how pretty you are when you cum.” “Oh god.” Her breath hitches as I rock her hips forward on my thigh and then back a little.
- “Let me help you get there,” I say, and there’s a little needy whine in the back of her throat. My thumb goes to the front of her panties, and the next time she rocks forward, I brush it over the wet spot right against her clit. Her moan is loud, and I have to put my hand over her mouth as I keep going. Over and over, I strum her little clit, and she begins to hump my leg faster. “What a sweet girl you are,” I say, and she whimpers. “Look how good you are for me.”
- “I need to feed you.” “Then you could eat me?” I blurt out, then gasp and put my hand over my mouth. I did not say that. “You’re lucky your head is hurting because now you’re teasing me, and that will earn you a spanking.” He reaches down and adjusts his cock. “Be a good girl.”
- “Look how lovely you are when you’re stuffed full.” I kiss the inside of her thighs and then let my tongue join the rabbit a little. “One day I’m going to put this in your ass while I fuck you.”

Parker siempre ha sido una chica buena porque sus padres no permitirían nada más. Siempre ha tenido que obedecer lo que le dicen y su última orden es trabajar en la misma empresa que su padre. La única rebeldía que ha cometido Parker es hacer una compra picante que acaba en manos de su jefe... Que no se la devolverá si no le deja ver cómo lo usa.

Ya estáis hartos de oírme decir lo mismo así que ya sabéis que pondré: que me ha encantado, que es una historia cortita, en este caso también tiene un momento gracioso pero también me provocó mucha ira y frustración con los padres de Parker menudos idiotas! Por lo demás, Samuel es el típico macho alfa con ganas de cuidar en todo a su mujer así que Parker va a tener la vida de una reina. Y como siempre también final ultra feliz. Para pasar el ratito!

And there's not a chance in hell I'd let her marry someone else. Not when she's meant to be mine.

Am I crazy to say that I find this book funny? I have more than 20 yellow highlighted tabs for this book (yellow = funny moments/lines). I always see smut books as funny books, sorry not sorry. huhu

I enjoyed reading the two main characters falling for each other, it's one of the sweetest thing I read in this book. But that certain thing that made them see each other, oh God is that even possible?!

i'm gonna but it, too. and intentionally change the address, haha.

Enjoy reading!!

Samuel & Parker, boss & intern, older and younger. Sounds like a good lunchtime read to me. Samuel is a puppy but for Parker he is a pit bull. I enjoyed how he treated her, how he looked after her and how he well did stalker her, BUT he was there when they had the accident. He dad and mom where POS and mom still is in my mind. Dad will he still has some growing to do.

Over all review, lunchtime spice to chase the winter blues away, sweet enough to give you a tooth ache, and enough drama to make you want to at least put your pearls on.
