"Two weeks; that's it. Just two weeks. Like a two-week one-night stand."

In the third installment to the Loves of Lakeside series, two complicated people who aren't looking for love fall into a sexy, steamy relationship. When feelings neither of them want to face come to the surface, which one of them will admit their feelings first?

I honestly just needed more of them! I absolutely loved the intrigue, the vulnerability and the love they have between them.

What starts off as a one night stand, turned into a two-week relationship that unbeknownst to themselves lasts a lot longer than forever.

Cecily is such a powerful women herself, and Lincoln is amazing. Their passion and vulnerability with each other was, I think, one of the best parts of their relationship. It was such a practice; they were that way with each other, only thinking it would be a short term thing. Little did they know, they were perfect for the other. They helped not only each other, but healed their hearts.

And Lawrence can just go away. He was such a jerk to Cecily, just the damage from him was enough to completely destroy her.

A quick, fast paced novella romance for any small town insta-love fan.

AND THE DOG IS OKAY.

" 'Do you often fly across the country to visit women you've only known for three months?' "

"He wasn't sure what or how it happened. Cecily wormed her way into his brain and took up permanent residence."
