Known as the queen of RaunchCom, AK Landow is a spicy RomCom author. She’s a recovering attorney living outside of the Philadelphia area with her husband, who she secretly pined for through her teen years, three crazy daughters, and multiple animals.
She enjoys reading, now writing, drinking copious amounts of vodka, and laughing. Having discovered there’s no other need in the world for funny perverts, she’s thrilled to have this new avenue to channel her age-inappropriate sense of humor.
She began her publishing journey with the City of Sisterly Love series, initially writing the first book, Knight, because it pisses her off that there are so few FMCs over the age of 40. She wrote it as an FU to the romance community to let them know that "oldies" still get it on. She fell so madly in love with both being an author and her fictitious family, that she can't seem to stop writing.
The entire series centers around a group of strong, intelligent, confident, and supportive women. The central family is known for severe cases of oversharing and walking in on each other. Hilarity often ensues.
The Belles of Broad Street series debuted in 2023 with Conflicting Ventures. Indecent Ventures and Unexpected Ventures followed shortly thereafter. The final book in the series, Enchanted Ventures, came out in early 2024. It world shares with the City of Sisterly Love series, but can be read as standalones.
2024 also became the year AK entered the sports romance world. Staying true to her goals of portraying strong women, her debut sports romance novel, Double Play, is both a baseball AND softball romance. It's the first in the Extra Innings series, which is now complete with four full-length novels and a prequel novella.
In 2025, AK is looking forward to diving into the world of women's basketball and men's football. The first book in the Fourth Quarter Fever series will be Home Town Advantage, coming on September 4, 2025.
Her writing is known for laughs, tears, and being one-handed reads.
I am beyond in love with this series! I want to be a part of their world. Cass is everything I wanted it to be. Sexy. Hilarious! Classy and all the feels. Finding out her history and seeing into for life made me love her more than I already did. Also spice! When you think there cant be more in the series AK Landow ups it again. I cannot wait for the next book I don't want the series to end. I love having the insight into each characters lives. So well done.
I really don’t know where to start. I’m very sad, I don’t have anymore books of this series to binge. I am completely speechless. I can’t tell you enough how much I adore Cass, everyone needs a Cass in their life. This is one dirty exciting book, but it’s not just full of the spicy stuff. It has every friggin emotion that you can imagine in it. There was laughter, joy, love, anger and heartbreak. I love the fact that when you read this, you should never judge someone by their cover. With Cass, if you keep breaking into that shell, you will receive the heart. It is absolutely fantastic and the characters are just incredible. Everyone deserves a bit of happiness in their lives.
This is book three in the city of sisterly love series. I recommend you read Knight and Dr Harley before this one.
AK Landow held no punches back when she wrote this one, I knew Cass was a strong independent character from the previous books but she is more than just a strong and independent person. She is more than that but I won’t give too much away, you will have to read Cass to find out more and have tissues ready for the emotional parts.
Cass has never hidden the fact that she doesn’t do relationships and how she loves to record on her phone her many escapades to watch later, until a young man half her age comes around and pushes her out of her comfort zone but they had an agreement. Their fun would be limited and came with an expiration date when he’d move to New York.
Trevor is a sharp mind with a huge heart always playing the clown to get others laughing. I loved watching him and Cass grow on their own and together.
Cass has been married 3 times and everytime as not worked for as they have all called her selfish so now she lives one day at a time.
Trevor meets Cass when his father starts dating Cass best friend and ends up marrying her, Cass and Trevor started to see each other as a casual thing but Trevor wants more, Cass will not let him give up his life to stay with her so she hurts him so he will go to New York.
Trevor tries to get over Cass but he can not after 6 months he comes back after a family emergency he decides to stay and this time he will not let Cass go as he is in love with her, but he knows he will have to fight for Cass as she she has so many demons that need to be overcome and a 25 year age gap.
Will they get their happiness ever after as Cass deserves to be happy with someone that gets her.
I felt every emotion in this book, so much love but also heart break. Trevor may have been young… but dang not only was he mature for his age but he was also a KNIGHT in the bedroom! The way he was with Cass made me cry happy tears cause she deserves that & so much more. I felt for her on a more personal level when it came to the second marriage & it just sucked me in even more to know how strong of a woman she is. Now Melissa was really ruffling my feathers when she found out & went all bitch, but in some way I understand. I’m just happy they did get there happily ever after. True definition of age is just a number & the “Secretariat” is forever. Overall I loved the book in the series.
ARC Review ! Cass AK Landow ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a story! This Author is new to me and I binge read her full collection over the weekend. These books are hidden gems and I highly recommend them . This is book three in the Series and honestly what a book it covers some sensitive topics which had me teary eyed . I laughed and swooned and cried. Cass and Trevors Age gap romance is just stunning and so well written.The heat is off the charts Cass and Trevor are pretty wild together 🔥 There are some lovely moments between all the characters from the previous books and I am honestly buzzing for the next book. So if you love a spicy age gap packed with drama and love you will love this !!
CASS is the third book in the City of Sisterly love series and it follows crazy aunt Cass and her love story with Trevor (her bestfriends step son who is half her age). This reverse age gap is everything you want and more.
AK Landow does not disappoint again! I read this book in one night it was too good to put down. This book is hot as hell (the spice scenes were PERFECTION!), my only complaint is there wasn’t even more spicy scenes 🤣
This book also made me tear up a few times which I did not anticipate, the emotions were high in a few scenes. But on the opposite side of things I also laughed out loud multiple times cause Cassandra and Trevor are hilarious.
This book, the third in the City of Sisterly Love Series, knocked my dang socks off! Trevor is absolutely swoon-worthy! Though he's much younger than Cass (his step-mother's best friend - taboo much?), I found him confident and mature in his relationship with her.
Cass and Trevor are absolutely PERFECT for each other. They both have wicked senses of humor, and when I say they are compatible in the bedroom (and other venues), I am not exaggerating one tiny bit. The places these two find to get busy had me alternately cheering, panting and cringing. It was friggin' fabulous!
AK Landow knows how to write the spice interspersed with some wonderful humor that kept me engaged from start to finish. I can't wait to see what she writes next!
This book is my favorite of the series so far. Loved this story so much and the writing just keeps getting better. It's almost like you can feel the confidence of the author getting stronger with each book.
This is a reverse age gap. Cass is Darian's best friend. She's been married 3 times and every man in her life, including her father, has let her down. So because of that, she vows to never fall in love and to never be in a real committed relationship. It works for her until she meets her match in Trevor. Darian's new stepson. The start casually, but after two years, they both have feelings for each other. They have an expiration date when he graduates from business school and plans to move, but now he doesn't want to go and Cass, not wanting to hold him back, breaks his heart so he will go. It works until it doesn't and he returns a few months later and tells her that he loves her and wants to be in a real relationship where everyone knows.
There was a lot more depth to Cass than it appears in the previous books. We finally learn all about her and why she is the way she is. Trevor is absolutely delicious, and despite such a huge age difference, was the perfect match for Cass. I loved how their relationship evolved and everything about their story.
AK definitely brings all the elements we come to know and love about her writing, laughs, love and spice. This is a reverse age gap and I was there for every second of it. Cass is in her 50’s and living her best life if you know what I mean. 😜 The scenes in this book were some of her spiciest yet. I wish I could I tell you more but what fun would that be if I spoiled the ride. Do yourself a favor and read this book!
If you love age-gap, dirty talking, steamy hot sex scenes and wouldn’t mind having a Trevor Knight in your life this book is definitely worth reading. CASS by AK Landow is a one of a kind story.
CASS is the third book of the City of Sisterly Love series. As a reader you will come to love the characters, the stories, the drama and the overall experience each book brings. AK Landow has done an amazing job at telling the story behind Cassandra Blackstone and Trevor Knight.
Cass is everyone’s favorite funny sidekick but you come to learn that her life as been anything but easy. Cass has been disappointed and used by men all her life with three failed marriages. Cass has spent a lifetime battling demons, demons we finally get to understand.
“Loca, if I hammer into you any harder, I’ll put another hole in you.” - Trevor
Trevor Knight is young, funny, outgoing, strong, good looking, caring, mature and definitely daddy material. Trevor is determined to break down Cassandra’s walls and help her overcome her fears. In the process, their relationship blossoms into something very unexpected.
CASS by AK Landow will have you feeling all kinds of things. I felt every emotion in this book, so much love but, also so much heart break. Trevor will have you wanting more and more. 🥵🥵 He is definitely the true definition of Secretariat 🐎🍆. Not only were my eyes wet 💦💦but so were my panties.
The way he was with Cass made me cry 😭 happy tears because she deserves to be happy. CASS by AK Landow showed us the true definition of age is just a number and the “Secretariat” is forever.
AK Landow did not disappoint. CASS is everything you are looking for in a book. There’s drama, romance, smut, emotions and so much more. The praise and spice 🥵 Trevor Knight gives will having you getting wet 💦💦.
CASS by AK Landow is definitely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Don’t forget to pre-order out October 1,2022
I was lucky enough to receive the ARC of this book and this is my honest opinion.
I started this book and wasn’t too sure if i would like it but i absolutely loved it. The hot and spicy love story between Trevor and Cass has some serious spice. It isnt always happiness for the couple they have some ups and downs.
I had tears of sadness and happiness reading this book… halfway through i had to message AK landow to tell her how much i loved it!
I have not read the previous books in this series yet but i will now be reading the complete series. I loved it can be read as a series but also a standalone
No surprise here but I absolutely adored Trevor Knight 😍 I have to say this series has the best bundle of characters, I love getting bits of everyone in each book
I absolutely love Cassie and Trevor! I couldn’t wait to get this book and it absolutely did not disappoint. I loved learning Cassie’s history and Cassie and Trevors relationship. 😍😍 Highly recommend this series!
I had my calendar marked for today and downloaded CASS the second it went live. Who could possibly not fall in love with Cassandra after reading KNIGHT and DR. HARLEY. I simply couldn't put it down. It did not disappoint. Just when I didn't think it was possible, AK Landow has managed to take things up another notch, across the board. I can't begin to tell you how amazing this book is. I laughed (a lot), I cried (a lot), and I blushed (a lot). Storyline = A++ - Spice = A++ - Creativity = A++ (you'll know what I mean on this one when you read it). Just perfect. Can't wait for the next book. Sounds like we won't have to wait too long!!
Oh boy. Where do I start? This book is everything I hoped for and so much more. It’s so unusual to already love the two MCs before you read a book (how could you not love them after Knight and Dr. Harley). But this book just took it to a whole other level. Learning about Cassandra’s past is everything. And how Trevor handles it is even more. I cried so many times. I laughed so many times. And the spice? 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵 This is as close to a perfect story as I’ve read. 👏🏻 👏🏻 AK Landow
Just when I thought I couldn’t fall in love with any of the characters of The City Of Sisterly Love Series- the amazing author goes and takes another piece of my heart! Trevor and Cass’s story is chefs kiss 🤌🏻
I knew I really enjoyed crazy cass/aunt cass in the first 2 books, but she totally took over this book like a boss! Her Development throughout this book was perfection!! I feel like I can relate to her on so many levels and she is an amazing human- I just wish she could see it sooner. She is a sexy, intelligent, selfless person!! An amazing attorney & a great friend, aunt, best friend & girlfriend. I love her!!! She is my kind of people!
And don’t get me started on Trevor!! He is one hottttt piece of man meat!!! There is a scene in The book with he and cass on a horse and I was all kinds of flustered up!!! It was intense and 🥵 I loved how much of a hard worker that Trevor is in his dads real estate business. How close he is with his twin brother, his other brother and his parents as well as his newly inherited step mom and sisters. He is the funny one of the bunch that keeps the laughter flowing at the Sunday family dinners. He is also the one that is very intuitive of what everyone in the family is meeting, as well as with Cass. I loved all Of the wonderful things he did for cass throughout the book as well as helping her connect with some people from Her past. It was such an emotional moment and I adore him as well -feel like he is the hottest brother of the Knight men!!!
Third book in the City of Sisterly Love series and this one is about Cassandra. Best friend to Darian and aunt to her girls, they are her only family since it went pear shaped with her dad when he left Cass and her mum and got himself a new family. When he chose between Cass’ graduation and his new daughters ballet recital and chose the latter, she stepped away from him and chose to be with the people who cared for her instead. But with three failed marriages and a new younger love interest, can she actually adopt a one man life instead? But who is this boy toy?
Cassandra is a strong woman on the outside, independent and powerful in her work and life to everyone who looks from the outside but the ones who know her, who really know her, know she has issues and her past to catch up with and put to rest. Well written again like the other two in the series, I get a clear picture of the characters in my head and Cass is someone who seems like the life and soul of a party, always making others laugh but the skeletons in her closet are always there to drag her back. Looking forward to reading the fourth book in the series.
I did not expect Cass to be as relatable as she is! I also did not expect the plot twist later in the book and my kind is still reeling!
Cass is Darian’s best friend and she is having relations with Darian’s new stepson who is 24 years her junior.
AK set this up so well by dropping little clues in earlier books. We know that Trevor prefers older women and that Cass likes to be wild in the sheets.
Because of this knowledge about Cass, I was blown away by her story. She has never had any man make her feel like she is lovable. Some of the things she says on flashbacks and in the present are thoughts I’ve had about and still have about myself!
This series gets better and better! On to the next book!
Well this book is as good as the first 2 in the series.
You need to read Knight and Dr Harley prior to this one, and I'm would highly recommend they are so good. The banter just keeps getting better. You will be laughing out loud at there shenanigans. I love how these books are written, and I will absolutely be reading all the books published by AK Landow with out a doubt. I did so well in this book until the letter then tears wouldn't stop. Age is just a number and your only as old as you feel. Love can conquer anything if you let it. I love Trevor and Cass they are definitely crazy in love. I cannot wait for book 4 in this series.
Oh my, the rollercoaster of spice and emotions that are Cass and Trevor’s story! What a ride. Their story is one for the books. Overcoming such obstacles and stepping out of the norm for their relationship. I felt everything with their story. They had a long road to get to where they did, but they made it, oh so beautifully! Trevor understood her more than anyone else, and I loved that for Cass!!
It took me ONE DAY to devour this book. The combo of spice, plot and comedy is so perfect, one doesn’t overshine the other. It’s settled I want to be Cass when I grow up. I think this book may be my new favorite, I love that it tackles something people actually struggle with and shows how they overcome it. The spice is a 5/5 for me! I got some new ideas, I mean I really enjoyed it!
I cannot get enough of this series! I love this family so much! I enjoyed being able to delve into Cassandra’s past. Her love, kindness and selflessness is absolutely amazing. I was hooked on to Trevor and Cass’s relationship. Their love is so so beautiful. He truly cares for her and knows her so well. Also the spice is 'Chefs Kiss!‘ Just when you think it can’t get any better it does! Incredible!!!
I will say this is by far my favorite out of this series. Just the tension and spice between Cass and Trevor is off the charts. From the beginning to end, i read this book within a few hours because i couldn’t put it down. It had me blushing and giggling on the inside the whole time like a teenage girl. I love this authors writing and I’m so excited for the author. Can’t wait for book 4.
Oh my gosh!!! I ate this book up in 6 hrs flat with my regular house work!! And boy oh boy!! This made me cry!! All the good ugly cry!! I'm not one who enjoys a reverse age gap romance but hell this knocks my socks off and everything else off as well. Cass and Trevor are truly couple goals!!! The psync they have with each other is crazy!! Loved it so much!!
And AK Landow doesn’t disappoint yet again! ❤️ This book follows Aunt Crazy Cass and her love story with Trevor (her best friend's step son who is half her age) This reverse age gap is everything I wanted and more. This book is HOT AS HELL and the SPICE SCENES were PERFECTION! ❤️ Cass is everything I hoped it would be if not more. Sexy! Hilarious! Classy and all the feels. Finding out more of her history and seeing into the life of Cassandra Blackstone made me love her even more than I already did!
Cassandra and Trevor’s are hilarious and a perfect couple. ❤️ This is a shorter review cause I don’t wanna give anything away you just have to read it for yourself.
I'm beyond in love with this series and all the characters in it! ❤️
From book 1 I loved Cass and knew our girl needed a love as unique as she is. Her story did not disappoint at all!! Trevor and Cass are perfect for each other both are Pervy and silly . I highly recommend!!
Cass isn't looking for a long term relationship and has been sneaking around with Trevor for a while. He has feelings for her though and wants more. The spice in this book is great and I loved their story so much!
Another awesome book in the City of Sisterly Love series! I've loved Cassandra from the beginning, and was thrilled to finally learn more about her. Trevor is an absolute hoot and definitely the perfect match for Cassandra. Their intimate scenes are my new life goals! Can't wait to see what's next!
