Alexandra James gave up her spring break for an offer she couldn't refuse: a week-long job that would earn her enough money to buy her way out of a broken heart. But if she thought her new boss would let her off easy because he's her father's best friend, she couldn't have been more wrong.
Dean Brittany demands perfection from his employees, but none more so than his new temp, since correcting her mistakes seems to fuel his unexpected attraction to her. Unfortunately for him, 18-year-old Alexandra is strictly off limits.
Strictly Off Limits is a forbidden romance novella originally published in the Forbidden Fruit Anthology, Volume 1 (no longer available). It's a quick listen.

I love Jessica Hawkins books. She writes Forbidden Romance like no other. I was excited to get to listen to this short story and it packs a great story line and heat. I have always liked and have been drawn to older men, so this book speaks to me!A Quick Forbidden Romance

I have read the book and heard the Audio and absolutely would recommend the Audio book.Who was your favorite character and why?
Mr. Brittany was of course! Why? We all want to read about or watch something that is known to us as taboo or forbidden and hearing how Mr. Brittany struggle with the thought of the unthinkable was absolutely right up my alley.Have you listened to any of Melissa Barr’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
No I have notDid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
It made me want more Thomas was a short read and Jessica Hawkins being one of my favorite authors.... She has a knack for writing about forbidden love I'd read and or listen to just about any story she has written.I just took a bite of the forbidden fruit

I originally did not think that I would care for such a younger woman and older man storyline but I should have known better with Ms. Hawkins as the author. Excellent short story. You will not regret purchasing.

I prefer the print version, as I am better able to form the characters' voices and inflections in my mind.What was one of the most memorable moments of Strictly Off Limits?
Dean spanking Alexandra over the omission of a comma. It was reminiscent of the movie "Secretary."What about Melissa Barr’s performance did you like?
I really enjoyed that she didn't just read each character straight and that I was able to tell when she was reading as a particular character.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
"By trying to win back a boy, she found a man."A quick, steamy read

Alexandra is suffering from a broken heart, her boyfriend has just broken up with her and going to Mexico for spring break. As the "dumped" part of the couple Alexandra ops not to go. She has a plan to get her boyfriend back and it includes a $900 dress! (2016)
Fortunately, Alexandra's dad knows that HIS best friend, Dean, needs a temp for a week or so during spring break. It is the perfect opportunity for her to earn enough to cover the dress. The dress her ex will see her in and beg for her to take him back.
Alexandra is not used to Dean in his business sense. So it is a complete surprise to her that the man she is working for demands formality, even though he has known her for her entire life.
Things move quickly from the option of being a temp or a little bit more to Dean. What will Alexandra decide? Okay, we all know what she's going to do!
This is a short, light read, perfect for an afternoon on the beach or on a February day in New England. There is no deep plot to keep track of. I liken this to a box of chocolates. You know that they are so good, and you should only have just one, but before you know it, half of the box is gone! Strictly Off Limits is candy for the ears. Nothing heavy, but also enjoyable.
The narration is good. I was impressed with her ability to portray both male and female characters in a believable way. There are very few narrators that can tell the story without being distracting. Melissa Barr is one of them
If this is your first experience with Jessica Hawkins, I encourage you to listen to her
The Cityscape Series. It is a masterful trilogy that I could not wait for each book to come out!
Notes: 18+ For language and mature themes and talk of BDSM.
Stars: I'm rating this in the "Candy for the Ears" category… Four stars across all categories.
If you are looking for something deep and dramatic, you may disagree with my review.

If you could sum up Strictly Off Limits in three words, what would they be?
