About this ebook

Welcome to Black Wolf’s Bluff, where turning forty doesn’t mean your life is over. It might just mean the spark that can light up everything is right around the corner.

 

She’s turning forty.

 

Lily Easton’s series of lackluster boyfriends ended three years ago with the ex from hell—self-absorbed, thoughtless, and seriously bad in bed. After she dumped him, he told everyone in their small town she was the horrible lover. Being made the dating-pool pariah allowed her to focus on her goal of becoming the first female mayor of Black Wolf’s Bluff, but with that accomplished, the arrival of Lily’s fortieth birthday is a stark reminder of everything she’s still lacking: love, commitment, and some seriously intense orgasms.  

 

He's here to do a job.

 

John David Lane walked away from Black Wolf’s Bluff thirty years ago, determined to find his own success and leave behind the family who hated him. Now he’s back, but not to stay. He plans to turn the family estate he has inherited into a high-end resort, the kind that would completely transform this backwoods town. To succeed, he’ll need the help of the “lady mayor,” but he didn’t count on the desire for something far more personal with Lily than political negotiations.

 

Dive into an all-new small-town romance that proves falling in love isn’t impossible after forty — and neither are seriously intense orgasms!

I absolutely loved this book! It reminded me of a SPICY hallmark (but better). It wasnt cheesy. It was well written. It was nice reading something that didn't make my heart race, make me sob. Or get me angry. I absolutely love the town and the characters. It would be a town I'd love to live in. I also loved reading about characters closer to my age instead of barely adults. JD and Lily are perfect and I cannot wait for Claire's story next.

now that is what I call a strong female character, and the same for the male lead, well balanced mentally, and socially, a relationship with humour, grace, independence and support, a plausible interaction scenario and timeline, nary a cliche in sight, we need more like this, an almost unheard of 5 stars.

Fantastic , it is heartwarming for a series with mature adults as the stars. This is just a reminder that people over 30 have the ability to find love and enjoyment to.
