Lauren Layne
Releasing Oct 6th, 2015
Loveswept
Hotshot sports editor Cole Sharpe has been freelancing for Oxford for years, so when he hears about a staff position opening up, he figures he’s got the inside track. Then his boss drops a bombshell: Cole has competition. Female competition, in the form of a fresh-faced tomboy who can hang with the dudes—and write circles around them, too. Cole usually likes his women flirty and curvy, but he takes a special interest in his skinny, sassy rival, if only to keep an eye on her. And soon, he can’t take his eyes off her.
Penelope Pope knows all too well that she comes off as just one of the guys. Since she’s learned that wanting more usually leads to disappointment, Penelope’s resigned to sitting on the sidelines when it comes to love. So why does Cole make her want to get back in the game? The man is as arrogant as he is handsome. He probably sees her as nothing more than a barrier to his dream job. But when an unexpected kiss turns into a night of irresistible passion, Penelope has to figure out whether they’re just fooling around—or starting something real.
Rating: ☕☕☕☕☕ 5 cups for this off the wall, charming and truly fantastic romantic comedy!
Review:
The quintessential queen of sexy romantic comedies Lauren Layne has done it again. Irresistibly Yours is the first book in her Oxford series, a spin off from her very successful Sex, Love & Stiletto series and this one brings back one of readers favorite secondary characters. Cole Sharpe freelance sportswriter for Oxford is a shoe-in for the sports editor job. A permanent position, that he's eschewed quite a number of times but has suddenly found himself wanting badly. But then his chances of getting it is cut down to fifty percent when someone else is after the spot. Surprisingly, his rival is cute and friendly, sports genius Penelope Pope, someone whom he can't really find himself being indifferent to, in fact they're becoming BFFs fast.
Who would have thought, Penelope aka "Tiny" would end up his best buddy and co worker to boot. But then when did he start lusting after cute brunettes rather than tall curvy blondes? Penelope has always known she'd be friend zoned for life and so when ever charming Cole starts showing signs of interest she decided to put up barriers fast. She didn't want to end up hurt again. But when lust seems greater than logic what are they supposed to do?
This enchanting, funny, sweet and so hilarious take on the rivals to friends to lovers trope is guaranteed to keep you reading well past your bedtime. Cole and Penelope's journey into the ever confusing world of relationships is one entertaining moment after another. For them sports seems way easier to navigate, but someone to hug at night is so worth the heartache. Irresistibly Yours is so, so good, its going to be one of those books you'll keep re-reading. This is a great first book into what looks like another great series.
