Blurb: 

Lucas Xavier is the last person I want to spend 24 hours with, let alone two minutes. Exes are exes for a reason. In his case, for a million reasons. Because he's not only an ex-lover, he's also an ex-friend. We didn't just break up - we combusted in a spectacular bonfire of barbs and doors slammed.
Nothing will change that. Not his clever wit, not his ridiculous good looks, not his unfair levels of charm. And definitely not a wild dash through the city that takes us on an accidental scavenger hunt through our past, where we stop for a tango lesson, pancakes and a visit with some llamas.

And certainly not time together to make amends and say we're sorry.

But, let's say that was enough...it's not like you can fall in love in 24 hours.

Indulge in the BOYFRIEND MATERIAL series! Three best friends. Three outrageous proposals. Three chances to fall in love. Three brand new standalones from Lauren Blakely! ONE NIGHT STAND-IN is a standalone romance in this series!

   

My review: 5 stars!

Lauren Blakely's Boyfriend Material series has been so fun, and I loved One Night Stand-In! I adore that the series is set in the book publishing world and has so many *winks* for us romance book lovers. Blakely treated us to another scavenger hunt, which was so fun in her book Birthday Suit. This one was the vehicle for Lola and Lucas to reconnect and rekindle a steamy attraction from years ago while searching for the belongings of their respective siblings. Their banter was delightful and I enjoyed reading about each clue and their adventure in solving it. This tale was low on the drama scale and off the charts on swoon-worthy moments. It was fantastic and I tore through the pages with great relish. Blakely's books are always a treat.

The second the test-the-sexy-scenes offer landed in my lap, I said yes.

After all, I've been damn curious about a few things I've read in romance novels. Do buttons truly go flying across the floor when you rip off a guy's shirt? Is staircase sex hella hot or does it leave you with a big old bruise mark on your back? And don’t even get me started on all that panty shredding, and whether it even works.

Time to find out as I embark on Project Sexy Scenes Research, at the request of my hotshot book editor bestie.

All I need is a willing scene partner. Enter Tristan, my best guy friend. The witty, tell-it-like-it-is, bearded hottie volunteers for the experiment.

He's also the guy who gave me the most devastating, toe-curling kiss of my life ten years ago. But nothing has happened since then.
And nothing will come between my panties and our friendship now since we have a plan to keep it PG.
But once the buttons start flying, all bets are off…

My review: 5 stars!
Prepare to swoon! Lauren Blakely never disappoints with each unique premise she creates. She is a master at taking a typical trope like friends-to-lovers (one of my favorites!) and spinning it in such a fun way. Sex and Other Shiny Objects was sweet and sassy and wild fun. Peyton was such a strong businesswoman and her darling lingerie shop and related blog were absolutely delightful. Tristan was such a amazing guy- he was doing an excellent raising his teenage brother after his parents passed away. There interactions were so authentic and he was the type of parent I hope to be. All of Lauren Blakely's book can be enjoyed as standalones, but it's so fun to meet and keep up with her casts of characters in each series. Cannot wait for her next book!

I was only trying to help a friend. I swear. I was legit asking for a friend who was finally ready to date again.

I knew what she wanted in a man -- smart, funny, ambitious, well-read (no, the sports section doesn't count), and plays a wicked game of badminton.

So I did what any good friend would do. Posted it for her. It seemed like a good idea at the time — I’d weed through the candidates, and bring her my top picks.

But then he responded.

Is it wrong to date the guy I screened for my bestie? Not asking for a friend.

My review: 5 stars!
Lauren Blakley is simply a magician- she can take all the tropes and make them fresh and engaging every single time! I adored watching Linc and Amy's friendship and relationship develop. There were so many real life book references dropped here and there in the book- so cool! Asking for a Friend is low-angst, super funny and fan-your-face hot. What a delight! I alternated between reading and listening to the audiobook, the latter of which was fantastic as all multi-cast Lauren Blakely audiobooks are. She absolutely sets the standard.


   
Excerpt:
“No. I was just getting the lowdown on office allergies.” He moves closer, leaning against the bar, looking like a tall drink of man. I break out my mental yardstick. Yup, I’m betting he’s over six feet. I’m going with six foot one. Which might even push him to a fifteen on the goes-to-ten babe-o-meter.

“So you’re on drinks detail,” I say, trying to sound all cool and casual, like I’m not busy sizing him up.

Not consumed with checking out his arms.
Not occupied admiring his blue eyes.
Not tied up enjoying his smile.

He points his thumb at his sternum. “New guy. That means I fetch all the drinks and buy them too. And you? What put you on errand duty?”

“I made my friend snort her drink out her nose.”

He looks impressed. “You officially have the best reason for being on drink detail.”

I preen, enjoying his praise. “Why, thank you. I was hoping to win that contest.”

“What was the snort-inducing remark, may I ask?”

Flashing back, I recall the culprit—my “you need V-time” comment to Peyton—but that’s too personal to share. I give him another one. “I referred to her ex-fiancé by his proper name.”

Clark Kent gives me a curious look. “Is his proper name amusing?”

“Of course. It’s Richard Cranium,” I say, and I wait. Will he pass the test?
