standalone romance: Captain.
It wasn’t the way this kind of story was supposed to go . . .
Insta-love isn’t supposed to turn into insta-hate.
But that’s exactly what happened when the hot-as-hell dreamboat I met in a bar turned out to be a lying, cheating scumbag-player-douche looking for nothing but a little side action. Jerk.
And he has the nerve to call me a liar and a “sociopath”? Assh*le.
And now, three months later, through a mind-blowing series of events I couldn’t have predicted in a million years, it turns out my boss is marrying his sister in Hawaii and I’ve got to play nice with him for an entire freaking week.
Okay, sure, I’ll put on a happy face this week and act like I’ve never even met the jerk before--did I mention his sister is marrying my boss?--but that doesn’t mean I’ll like it. And it certainly doesn’t mean I’ll stop secretly hating the cocky bastard’s guts.
Because I do.
I hate him.
I really do.
I just wish my brain would explain the situation to my body . . . because every time he flashes that panty-melting smile at me, it takes all my self-restraint not to jump the bastard’s hot-as-f*ck bones.

★★★★ Four Stars
This is my first book by this author. The cover caught my eye and once I saw "Insta love isn't supposed to turn into Insta hate" I couldnt wait to start it.
I really liked this book. It's hot and sexy but sweet at the same time. The characters are unbelievably easy to like. Their banter and bond with each other bring an extra something to this romance. Both Tessa and Ryan are very likeable and their blossoming romance had me hooked. There's an easiness between them that seems natural. The family dynamic is put across perfectly, you can feel the love this family have for one another through the pages.
Ryan is hot, sweet, funny, close to his family...the perfect man really. Once he's set his mind on something, nothing is going to stop him. Tessa is a sweetheart. Shes funny, sometimes insecure, hard working and completely thrown when she meets Ryan for the first time. With the chemistry between them getting hotter, it's all looking good until something happens that makes Tessa back off. With secrets, lies and misunderstandings between them, Ryan is determined to get passed it and move on while Tessa is having doubts of her own, knowing she's keeping things from Ryan.
I will definitely be checking out Lauren Rowes other books. If they're anything like this then I'm in for a treat.
