I lived my life in temporaries. Temporary relationships. Temporary production contracts. Temporary lengths of time in different locations around the world. No ties. No strings. That was better for everyone. Except, Pierce didn’t see it that way, didn’t understand we’d had our temporary fun and it was time to move on. Fifteen years my junior, Pierce was a talented young director, lovely on both the inside and out, great sense of humor, and frankly, he had the best set of abs I’d ever seen on any human. But the key word in the previous statement was young. And circling back to temporary. Except, Pierce had gotten it into his head that he didn’t want temporary. He wanted me and not just in his bed. He wanted me in his life . . . permanently. The scariest part? I was worried I might want that too.

Who DOESN'T love a (LEGAL) age gap romance? Think carefully, because your answer could determine the future of our friendship. Lie to me if you have to. Just lie.
Ennyway, this is an age gap with the heroine, Artemis-known-as-Artie, being the older one (36 to Pierce's 21, if I remember correctly, or my Alzheimer's is just making this up).
(I just re-read the synopsis--which does not have Alzheimer's--and it says there's a 15-year age difference, and all l have to say about that is fuck math. Moving on.)
The book starts out with them having a blazing hot one-night stand hookup, but Artie doesn't do relationships, so she's outta there. She's focused on her career and don't need no gat damn man.
Good on ya, girlie! Get that bag. Is love gonna buy me my 1,200,363th Kindle ebook? No, it's not.
Love this concept! You start with the bang first, and then the characters have to work on the love thing (with intermittent banging--I mean, I did rate this "Recommended," so there better be P-in-V activity for the adults in the room) over the years.
They end up working on a film together--she's producing, he's directing--and they try to keep their genitals apart...HAHAHAHA. HAHAHAHAHA, I say, because those genitals DON'T stay apart, and then Artie tries to keep her heart apart from his...HAHAHAHA. HAHAHAHA, I say again, because this is a romance.
Love the slower burn, even though there's a lot of running away on Artie's part until she realizes what a dumbass she is who could've had dick AND love. HEA guaranteed.
