Dirty Little Midlife Crisis

Heart Coves Hotties, Book 1

De: Lilian Monroe

Narrado por: Ava Blair, Mercer Boffey

Hilarious, hot and seriously refreshing. Dirty Little Midlife Crisis is the book you didn’t know you needed.

Forty-five, recently divorced and a certified hot mess. The last thing Fiona needs to start her vacation is a flooded hotel room and a broken-down car.... Alas, that’s what she gets. She’s ready to pack it all in and go home - wherever that is - when her knight in a wet T-shirt strides in to save the day. Jaw-dropping, panty-melting Grant Greene takes the 'mess' out of 'certified hot mess' when he walks up to Fiona and offers her a room to stay. No strings attached. Great, right? It would be, apart from the sparks that immediately start to fly. Sparks are bad. Sparks are dangerous. Sparks can cause a fire. And for a divorcee trying to start over, a fire is really bad news. But bad decisions can be fun...right? Just as long as you don’t get burned....

It was okay

I think that I would have enjoyed it more if the was a variation in female voices throughout the story. A bit disappointing that all female voices were the same.

Naughty but great

Loved it. wasn't sure at first but as the story unfolded it was hard it.

Loved it!!

I loved this book so much! It was funny and cute and romantic and real. It was refreshing to read (listen to) a book with a woman of my own age and situations that happen at this age. Loved it!

Great book!

Once I started, I couldn't stop until I read it all. looking forward to the next one

High hopes for a mid life story ....

This is a really NICE story. I was looking forward to a more middle life story that avoided the old tropes and this offered a lot of scope.

Unfortunately it felt a little to much like it sits on the Virgin River-YA spectrum of heat and spice. The story seemed to try and avoid showing that people over 40 can have real and exciting sex lives. It doesn't end at 30. It just seemed like it didn't want to offend the reader's sensibilites (like it will offend a reader to know that your mom really does have GOOD sex and talking about it is wrong) .

While I don't need it ....I do love a good slow burn or a "hot and dirty", BUT a fade to grey in this case stunts the potential narrative and plot development.

The male reader was very good but the female reader was pretty stilted and lacked emotive inflection in her parts and I had to try and work with it.

The story is enjoyable and sweet but it felt like there was so much more possible.

Maybe I am jaded but for MC's over 40 to have such limited life views or insecurities about what they wanted seemed a little immature. The missed opportunity was to capture the depth and scope that to older MC's lifes experiences can bring to a narrative.

I will read the next novel in the series to make sure BUT its now down my priority list.

Great couple

Loving this small town the group of ladies is wonderful, the whole story gelled nicely, narration was great

Repetitive

The story was ok but I found certain themes, like the history of the main characters, repetitive.

great book

I really enjoyed reading this author.  I look forward to reading more books by this author in the near future.

Never too late for LOVE ❤

I really enjoyed this book. it had just enough heat and heart felt moments 💔 😪 I even found myself saying a loud AZZ-H! 😆 GREAT WRITING and Narration. Love the Characters as well. 🌟🏆⚘

Women of a certain age.

I love this series and I’m revisiting for a second time. It’s refreshing to read about 40ish women coming together from different backgrounds and situations. They find love at a time they don’t feel their most desirable.
