Timing is everything.
Presley Hale and Sebastian Vargas are no strangers to goodbye. Their high school summers were spent wrapped up in each other until she would inevitably go home to California. One season after college, Sebastian finally escaped the little Texas town to travel the world, and they said goodbye for what they thought might be the last time.
Sebastian went one way. Presley went the other.
For the first time in five years, theyāre both in town, but the timing is no better than ever. So the only thing to do is what they do best. Keep it casual.
Friends with benefits.
Theyāve done it beforeādoing it again will be easy.
But their hearts donāt get the memo.
When the lines of their arrangement blur, Presley and Sebastian are faced with decisions theyāve avoided for years. And thatās not even their biggest problem.
A small town in danger of failing.
A secret that could tear them apart.
And two hearts that canāt hide anymore.
Theyāve shared so many summers, but none compare to what theyāll face.
Timing is everything.
And their time is almost up.

Lightning struck me dead to the spotāshock, I realized distantly. The sensation was followed by the frying of my ovaries like a couple of unsuspecting eggs. Sebastian Vargas had that effect on me and my eggs. I turned, smiling through my surprise. And there he stood, tall, dark and smirking at me in that way that made all the girls fling their panties at him.
Itās our curse. Our men either die young or leave. So just make sure heās healthy and isnāt going anywhere.
āI really am a kick ass mom, arenāt I?ā āJudging by the small fortune in the swear jar, Iād beg to differ.ā
No more telling Priscilla her dad was busy fighting crime in Metropolis, or that he was on a moon station collecting rock samples. Donāt worryā she didnāt believe me. It was a running joke in our family. Sometimes he swallowed knives with the circus. Sometimes he was a baseball hall of famer. Just depended on my mood.
My Review:
This was a delightfully fun read with the steamy treats and witty and irreverent humor that I tend to savor. I am totally enamored with Staci Hart. While I may be a relatively new acolyte I am now a devoted one. I enjoy her breezy and cleverly amusing writing style with edgy insights and keen observations. Her characters are lovable and endearing yet a bit frayed and struggling. The storylines were engaging, relatable, and highly entertaining. In a word, it was delectable.
This sounds divine.
This seems fun and I loved saying the title out loud a couple of times, LOL.
I don’t think I have read her work. The book sounds like a lot of fun. Great review.
I love Staci Hart! I need to read this ASAP.
Sooo very up my alley! A trope I adore too.
This forces me to ask did you ever have friends with benefits. I got such an offer recently. I, the closet romantic, refused it… Oh my the title gave me the feels. Or it is probably indigestion. š¤£š¤£š¤£
LOL, you crack me up! And yes I have.
