Your Inescapable Love by Layla Hagen
This book is a standalone. Each book in The Bennett Family series will follow a different couple.
Max Bennett is a successful man. His analytical mind is an asset to his family’s company.
That’s how I describe myself in my professional bio, at least.
Outside the office, I shed the serious persona as fast as I can. Out-Of-Office Max is carefree and fun. I adore being an uncle, and spoiling my nieces rotten. I’m happy with my life. Mom can ask for more grandchildren all she wants, I have no plans to settle down any time soon. Or ever.
Then fate tossed Emilia Campbell back into my life.
I remembered my childhood best friend as a fun-loving goofball, but now, she’s a sensual woman.
A sensual woman with a sick grandmother to care for, someone who could use my friendship more than ever. So all my questions about what could happen between us have to stay secret. I can’t risk ruining the friendship, despite all my dirtiest fantasies.
She says her childhood hero-worship for me is over. I swore I wouldn’t turn my panty-melting charm on her. It’s exactly the kind of challenge that makes it inescapable. But once we give in to temptation, can we salvage what we had, or can we find more?
Max Bennett was nine years old the first time he met Emilia. The two formed a tight friendship that lasted for years until she moved away. Now, years later, Max enjoys a successful career and loves his life, carefree and fun. He has everything he wants and does not intend to settle down anytime soon (even though his family might have other ideas). But when a chance encounter brings him face-to-face with Emilia, he starts questioning everything.
Emilia Campbell has a lot on her plate, taking care of her sick grandmother. After practically being left at the altar, Emilia has sworn off men…until the childhood friend she hero-worshiped and hasn't quite forgotten steps into her clinic. Max is every bit the troublemaker she remembers, only now he has a body to drool over. They are both determined not to cross the boundaries of friendship. But as their chemistry spirals out of control, can Emilia trust her childhood hero with the key to her heart and accept she might have found her one true love? Contains mature themes.
