I loved how much Lia loved Tasha!! She literally almost risked everything with Beck to protect Tasha and her secret when her evil step mom whose jealous of the attention she's getting from Beck blackmails her. Lia is intent on keeping that promise until she's becomes Becks new secretary and they can't hide how much they want each other. She's in heaven until she hears Tasha and remembers her promise when they were 16 to never sleep with Beck. The second she sees him again she realizes he's still handsome as ever and cause if a small accident she ends up in Becks arms kissing. Lia loves working in there garage cause it means she gets to see Tasha's dad again, Beck, since it's been a few years.

Thankfully her best friend Tasha is close by and she uses her dads garage as a make shift studio.

This was a sweet, low angst, instalove taboo story about Beck & Lia.ĭue to a crash in the economy 22 year old Lia had to move back home with her dad and the step mom from hell Jean. Overall, I really enjoyed this bit of taboo and loved that we got more depth with the length of the book. She's your typical evil woman persona that thought everyone should kiss the ground she walked on. Her step mom worked for Beck and despite being married to Lia's dad, she was trying to get into Becks pants as well. We have some OW drama in the form of Lia's step mom and I wanted to crush her with my foot! Lia was way too nice to her, but she loved her dad and wanted him to be happy, so ok I get it. She was loyal to her best friend Tasha that made her more hesitant to pursue Beck but thankfully she didn't push away too much. She wasn't immature but made decision like a younger woman would. Lia is the typical young woman lusting after the older man. Once he decided on her, there was no other decision for him.

I was glad to see he didn't push Lia away like you normally see in this type of story. I do wish he was a bit more dominant just because that's my personal tastes. I just have a thing for the older, more sophisticated man and Beck was pretty delicious. The older man/younger woman trope is my favorite bit of taboo. I loved how much more in depth into the relationship she gave us, not only between Beck and Lia, but also the other characters in the story. This was much longer than what we usually see from this author. Penny Wylder promised us a full length novella and she delivered.
