Quick fun read

This was a fun read. I listened to the audio version of this and thought the narration was really well done. Ava goes on a girls night out with her girlfriend to have a bit of fun. She is gorgeous and has a rocking body. A younger guy she knows shows an interest in getting much better acquainted with her, in the intimate sense of the word.

Should she do it? He is freaking hot, she has nothing to lose, in fact she has everything to gain and she is damn tempted!

I really enjoyed this quick fun read.

Ava and Cole

Quick fun read about 40 year old Ava and 25 year old Cole. On a night out with her friend, she flirts with Cole and he responds. Stephanie Wyles did a good job with the narration. I received this free copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Hot running partner becomes one time bedmate

I think we all want to be Ava! This is a great book that shows you're never too old to have a younger man. :) Have fun and let the age just be an age.

reluctant cougar

Ava was very reluctant to be a cougar. She started the night out right with expectations that exceed what she knew she would find. Then things change in a different direction. By morning 40 yr-old Ava will have joined the cougar club. Simple. Slow. Short.

I enjoyed the narrator. For me it was the story that had the problem.

Cougar

Who says a lady can’t have a younger man if it’s okay for men to have a younger lady the same should be okay. An easy to listen to story that I’m sure some women out there could connect too.

40 is the new 20!!

Even though this is a short book I still really enjoyed it. The author has a good sense of humor and I appreciated reading a story about a 40-year old woman instead of a 20-something. It's not like you die after you hit 30. I hope this is a sign that we will be seeing more books with older women in them.

A pretty good book

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. While I listened to this book I tried to be extra picky about it. The only thing that I really didn't like was all the self takling. You know when you are trying to talk yourself in to or out of something. Also what guy who knows that they are going for a hook up leaves the condoms in the vehicle? Overall I would say this was an ok book. not the best I have ever read but far from the worst. The author did a pretty good job.
