My review:

Ridge (31) & Addison (24) meet when he’s at a strip club and she’s the stripper. It’s lust at first sight and it’s a Marni book so the burn is fast as usual. But then he finds out what her day job is and now it’s a forbidden relationship.

I, honestly, didn’t love the reason why she had to take on that second job. Like that’s way too much money to waste on that, even if you have the best parents in the world. I get she’s trying to do something nice, but that’s a whole lotta moolah that could be better spent in my opinion, like maybe just on your student loans. She was a great character, though, and being a teacher was a perfect fit for her personality.

Ridge is a great dad to an adorably well behaved girl named Daisy. He and the ex have a pretty good co-parenting relationship, which was nice. Addison and Daisy also get on well, so I loved that.

Overall, they were both super sweet, except for that 1 time he was a fool. I liked that he was all in right away and fell first. No 3rd act breakup and communication is always a plus for me, too.

Narration notes:
A fabulous job by both

Book blurb:


A sizzling and swoony single dad, forbidden, billionaire romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …

Captivated.
Addicted.
Mesmerized.

All the things I felt the minute I saw Addison Lark.
The last thing I’d expected was to fall in love at a strip club.
But Addison was the woman of my dreams.
It didn’t matter that I spent an obscene amount of money just to talk to her.
The fiery redhead made me feel things I’d never felt before.

But she didn’t want anything to do with me.
And she left without a backward glance.
Making me crave her even more.

Imagine my shock when we unexpectedly met again, presenting the most unexpected problem—Addison Lark was forbidden.

But did that stop me?
Did that stop us?

I’d made a promise to start living my life, and I wasn’t going to let that woman walk away for a second time.
