ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date September 12 , 2016

Here’s what you need to know about me — I’m well-off, well-hung and quick with a joke. Women like a guy who makes them laugh—and I don’t mean at the size of his d*ck. No, they want their funny with a side of huge… not to mention loyal. I’ve got all that plus a big bank account, thanks to my booming construction business. Yup. I know how to use all my tools.

Enter Natalie. Hot, sexy, smart, and my new assistant. Which makes her totally off limits… 

Hey, I’m a good guy. Really. I do my best to stay far away from the kind of temptation she brings to work.

Until one night in Vegas… 

Yeah, you’ve heard this one before. Bad news on the business front, drowning our sorrows in a few too many Harvey Wallbangers, and then I’m banging her. In my hotel room. In her hotel room. Behind the Titanic slot machine at the Flamingo (don’t ask). And before I can make her say “Oh God right there YES!” one more time, we’re both saying yes—the big yes—at a roadside chapel in front of a guy in press-on sideburns and a shiny gold leisure suit. 



But it turns out what happened in Vegas didn’t stay in Vegas. And now, my d*ck doesn’t stay in my pants when she’s around. I try to resist. Honest. But the more we try to keep our hands to ourselves, the more we end up naked again, and the more time I want to spend with her fully clothed, too.

The question now is…do I take this woman to be my ex-wife?

REVIEW: WELL HUNG by Lauren Blakely is a stand alone, contemporary adult, romance story that follows the friends to lovers relationship between PA Natalie Rhodes, and carpenter Wyatt Hammer. If you are a fan of Lauren’s rom-com story lines you will recognize our couple from her previous books Big Rock, and Mister O. WELL HUNG can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty although many of the characters from previous story line cross over for cohesion and familiarity. Natalie is Charlotte’s sister (Big Rock), and Wyatt is Nick’s twin brother (Mister O).

Told from first person point of view (Wyatt) WELL HUNG follows carpenter and construction businessman Wyatt Hammer, and his personal assistant Natalie Rhodes as they venture to Las Vegas for a client to remodel a recently purchased penthouse. When the business deal falls through Wyatt and Natalie decide to enjoy Vegas for one more night waking up the next morning as husband and wife. What ensues are the couple’s attempts to get the marriage annulled when their speedy divorce in Vegas doesn’t go through, and Wyatt’s need keep his soon to be ex-wife in his life for ever. Returning home as husband and wife makes for some difficult and awkward moments at work.

Wyatt Hammer has issues of trust and has been burned in the past, and in this he envisions losing everything because of a reckless night in Vegas with his personal assistant-a woman he has fantasized about for several months. Natalie Rhodes made a promise to the man she now calls both husband and boss, and with the promise comes heartbreak and sorrow as our couple continues on their path to annulment and divorce. Natalie is a woman who has fallen in love but knows that Wyatt has no plans for the future.

WELL HUNG is a sweet and sexy read with a little bit of tension and drama on the side. The conflict arises through miscommunication, a lack of trust, and promises made only to be forgotten. The premise is entertaining and humorous; the characters are fun, warm and energetic; the romance is seductive and hot. WELL HUNG is an enjoyable read with wonderful characters that are likable and real.

She twirls the pen in her hand. “So who caused the contamination today? Was it Floyd or Kevin the oily electrician you tried to put a chokehold on?” “Oily Kevin needed the chokehold. Agree or disagree?” She nods. “Completely agree. There’s so much agreement in me, I can’t imagine how much more I could possibly agree.” “The chokehold was one hundred percent certifiably necessary,” I add, since Kevin had hit on her when he stopped by a few weeks ago. Here’s the thing—Natalie could dropkick him in the blink of an eye. She could slam him to the ground herself. But that shit he pulled with the leering and lewd comments does not fly with me. I would have done the same if a dude tried to get fresh with my little sister, Josie, at the bakery where she works. So I’d dropped a hand on Kevin’s shoulder, Vulcan style, and promptly escorted him the fuck out of my office. No one, and I mean no one, gets to put the moves on my employees. “It was Floyd today,” I tell her, then give her the safe-for-work version of the story—the one about Floyd’s client conquests, not his comments about banging assistants. There’s no need to have that hanging out there in the air between us. Can’t plant that forbidden idea in her head. That risky, dangerous, dirty, filthy, completely fucking alluring idea. My eyes roam the office briefly, and I catalogue all the places that are calling out to be christened. Her desk, her chair, the floor… Just like that, my head is a wild rumpus of inappropriate ideas. Exactly what it shouldn’t be. It’s like horny aliens have invaded my mind. But I’m not Floyd. I can do better, so I picture a vise, jam the images into it, and crush them out of my mind. The dirty images and the horny aliens, too. “And then I escorted him out of Lila’s home and said see ya later,” I tell her, finishing the story, as I drag a hand through my dark brown hair. “Like, in another lifetime later.” “Hmmm…” she says. “Hmm, that’s great, or hmm, why did I give one of our suppliers the heave-ho?” “Hmm, as in your story gives me a good idea. Something I’ve wanted to do for a long time.” “What’s that?” Her eyes sparkle. Hers are a lighter shade than my dark blue. “Want me to find a new hinge supplier?” The idea is beyond perfect. I smack my palm against the edge of her desk enthusiastically. “Yes. And for the record, you’re brilliant and beauty—“ I cut the last word off so it sounds like a low bass note. Note to self: Don’t call her beautiful when you’re berating other men for hitting on her at work. She’s watching me, waiting for me to finish my sentence, and somehow I twist the words into a new compliment, as I say, “Brilliant, and…bountiful.” *Bountiful? Seriously? What the hell was that? Maybe she won’t notice.* No such luck. “Bountiful?” she asks, skepticism thick in her tone. As it fucking should be. “I’m bountiful?” I nod, going with it, owning it. “Your brain. It’s like a cornucopia of ideas. It’s a Thanksgiving bounty. It’s bountiful,” I say, because I’ve got to sell this cover-up. She squares her shoulders. “If you say so, Hammer.” And this bountiful brain was two steps ahead today. I already found a new supplier. I called around, talked to some of our colleagues, and got some great recommendations. I already have a new hinge guy lined up.” My smile spreads quickly. “Damn. You are three steps ahead of me.” “A good assistant should be.”
