Grayson McKnight

I haven’t been having much luck on the dating scene lately, ever since my breakup with my longtime college girlfriend. I thought being 25 and single would be a blast, but dating apps are trash, and I’ve managed to get nothing but three fake numbers at my favorite bar.

Thankfully, the actual owner of the third fake number was kind enough to reply to let me know I’d texted the wrong number. She was warm and open and expressed curiosity about the fake number I’d been given, so we got to texting. She gave me some flirting advice, so I can get a real number next time. But she was so hot when dispensing her advice, and also so kind, I saved her as "Hot Teacher" in my phone and mustered the courage to ask her for drinks tonight. Not to get more advice, but to persuade her to give me a shot herself. And she said yes. Well, actually, she said maybe. But I honestly think she’s coming.

Sight unseen, I’m already far more attracted to Hot Teacher than anyone I’ve met on the dating scene, so I’m going to pull out all the stops tonight, if she comes to the bar. The thing is, I might be shy and terrible at flirting, but if Hot Teacher gives me a shot, I’m pretty confident I’ll be able to surprise her behind closed doors. I’ve been studying up so diligently since my breakup, in fact, I’m pretty damned sure I’d be able to blow her beautiful mind, if only she’ll give me the chance.

Textual Relations is a steamy older-woman/younger-man romantic comedy that will make you laugh out loud, fan yourself, and swoon your way to Grayson and Selena’s happily ever after.

Note: Portions of the full-length novel, Textual Relations, originally appeared in Lauren Rowe's much shorter novella, Wrong Number, Right Guy, that was only briefly available.

Grayson McKnight doesn't have the best of luck when it comes to dating. Single after being with his first ever girlfriend for 5 years, he's trying to "get back in the game", but it just happened again: he was given a bogus phone number. He finds out when Selena Diaz kindly answers his text and informs him that someone gave him her number instead. A fun text exchange happens and Grayson decides to try his luck ands asks her to meet him for drinks. He already knows that she is older than his 25 years and not interested in a relationship, but he just can't help wanting to meet this wonderful woman. If she shows up, they'll see what happens from there. They both show up and drinks turn into a mind-blowing weekend in a luxury hotel. NO strings attached. NO promise of tomorrows. But Fate put them together... and now neither wants to be apart. This might have been the wrong number, but she's definitely the right woman.
This book is like a warm hug! It's also hot AF, as Grayson is a devoted student of one certain guy Ball Peen Hammer's "instructional videos"! Grayson is first grade boyfriend material and I love that Selena is older, Latinx and a mom. Their times together are equally steamy and swoony! Don't be fooled by Grayson's golden retriever ways. He can be super alpha when Selena needs him. You'll see.
And the epilogue? Awwwww.... Highly recommend!
Oh, and for the Lauren Rowe fans, they meet at Captain's!
If you are curious about the friend that goes to the bar with Grayson, you can find what went down with his one night stand with Marnie, Selena's friend, in Who's Your Daddy?
Narrated dual style with a bit of duet I the first chapter by Andi Arndt and John Lane. Andi is amazing as usual and John Lane is a familiar voice to us Lauren Rowe fans. A lovely story and a lovely audiobook!

I am a sucker for a hero with golden retriever energy and Grayson is exactly that and more! These characters are also seen in the new book by Lauren Rowe Who's Your Daddy, but you can read them in any order. This is an age gap trope with the hero as the younger man who crashes into Selina's life via a wrong number text. I am not always a fan of age gaps but these two characters and their story really worked for me and the instalove that Grayson feels is so charming and spot on for his character. The chemistry and spice between these two is off the charts and on the page. Loved this new set of characters and hope to see more from the friends in this book.

Andi Arndt and John Lane are fantastic and breathe life into this charming story.

Adorable!

I’m always excited when I hear Lauren Rowe has a new release and I was excited when Textual Relations hit my kindle I jumped straight in and I loved it so much I than downloaded the audible and jumped into that as well. This is Grayson McKnight and his older woman Selina’s story and boy do they have an entertaining tale to tell.
John Lane and Andi Arndt did a great job with the narration and they were spot on with the witty banter. They really did a wonderful job bringing the characters and their story to life.
Grayson finds Selina when he is given a fake number by a woman he thought he might like to date……but her loss was Selina’s gain and what follows is an entertaining, witty romance.
The chemistry is hot, the banter is witty, I fell hard and fast for Grayson and I want Selina in my corner. Once you put all of this together and add in a hint of drama you get the perfect read or listen so I guess all that’s left to say is please one click now.

Loved everything about this witty listen

Another amazing book by Lauren. I loved this story and the references to the Morgan books. I enjoyed the goofiness of Grayson and how Selina found her strength after divorce. The teaching moments were perfect and the ending was the icing on the cake. Love!!!!

Fantastic

Lauren Rowe is one of my go to authors. I know whenever I pick up a book that I am in for a well written, entertaining read with characters who you cannot help but fall for.
Textural Relations was everything I was expecting and so much more. Grayson McKnight may be younger, but as a book boyfriend he ticked all the boxes for me. I loved that he woman he fell for Selina who was older (not something I usually enjoy).
I also loved that he found Selina thanks to be given a fake number by another woman. These two were meant to be. Their journey was rocky but what an entertaining one it was. There were equal amounts of heat, humor, romance, and some drama, a perfect blend if you ask me and everything, I want in a romance story.
The narration by Andi Arndt and John Lane was spot on, their voices easy to listen to and they brought the story to life for me. This is a little gem that I had no hesitation in recommending.


Fantastic story and narration
