About the book: Release Date October 11, 2019

Dylan has a stare colder than the Arctic.
Even so, I can’t stop staring at him.
I should – the guy’s been a thorn in my side since my father hired him as a consultant. I’m supposed to be taking over the company but it feels like dad doesn’t trust me at all.

To impress him I have to impress Dylan.
Not an easy task when I’m pretty certain Dylan is the devil.

The devil with the kind of gorgeousness that should come with a warning.
One that says ‘look but don’t touch’.

I learned the hard way one late night, when we turned into something more.

A mistake?

Yes, it should be.
Until it happened one more time… and again and again.
Then we became a hot, sinful, secret that could cost us everything.

If you like hot, steamy, romance with gorgeous, drool-worthy bad boys you will love this book. Dive in now for some fun.

One Last Time is a complete standalone and a part of the Bad Boy Bachelors of Orange County series.

REVIEW: ONE LAST TIME is the first instalment in Khardine Gray’s contemporary, adult The Bad Boy Bachelors of Orange County erotic, romance series focusing on the Cartwright sisters. This is twenty-eight year old, PR specialist Taylor Cartwright, and thirty-two year old, consultant Dylan Patterson’s story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Dylan and Taylor) ONE LAST TIME follows the forbidden relationship between twenty-eight year old, PR specialist Taylor Cartwright, and thirty-two year old, consultant Dylan Patterson. Peter Cartwright had been considering handing over the reigns of Cartwright Enterprises to his daughter Taylor but first, Peter hired consultant Dylan Patterson of Patterson Inc, in an effort to clean up and trim down Taylor’s work spending. Taylor believing her father doesn’t have any faith in his second eldest daughter, struggles with the measure Dylan is about to undertake. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Dylan and Taylor, and the potential fall-out as Dylan is forced to make a decision regarding his relationship with Taylor Cartwright.

Dylan Patterson is the black sheep of the family believing himself not worthy of his father’s love and support. With a reputation as a bit of a manwh*re especially as it involves sleeping with clients, Dylan finds himself in another compromising position when he begins to develop feelings for Taylor Cartwright.

The relationship between Taylor and Dylan begins acrimoniously as Taylor struggles with her father’s ‘efforts’ to ensure Taylor is worthy of taking over the family business. Having met under less than ideal circumstances, Taylor and Dylan’s relationship is both personal and professional but their private relationship is about to be exposed. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense, without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Taylor’s sisters: Abby, Mia and Vanessa; Abby’s best friend Gilman Hawkins; their father Peter Cartwright; as well as Dylan’s father.

ONE LAST TIME is a story of family, acceptance and forgiveness. The premise is engaging and captivating; the characters are energetic and colorful; the romance is seductive and hot. ONE LAST TIME is a wonderful start to the author’s Bad Boy Bachelors of Orange County series.

Abby wants to get pregnant.

The old fashioned way.

I’d always wondered what it would be like to be with her.
Abby Cartwright, the girl who’d been my best friend since birth.
Her with her beautiful, sassy smile and that live for the moment daring personality.

I’d never been able to say no to her before.

Now would be a good time to start.
Except this idea of hers has unlocked my curiosity.
And temptation wants me to explore…her.

Pregnancy Scandal is a complete standalone and a part of the Bad Boy Bachelors of Orange County series

••••••••

REVIEW: PREGNANCY SCANDAL is the second instalment in Khardine Gray’s contemporary, adult The Bad Boy Bachelors of Orange County erotic, romance series focusing on the Cartwright sisters. This is thirty year olds, Abby Cartwright, and professional football player, quarterback Gilman ‘Gilly’ Hawkins’ story line. PREGNANCY SCANDAL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Abby and Gilly) PREGNANCY SCANDAL follows thirty year old Abby Cartwright, the eldest Cartwright sister as she considers getting pregnant, the old fashioned way. Abby Cartwright is not currently in a permanent relationship with anyone other than her best friend Gilman Hawkins but Abby considers a number of possibilities on her road to having a child. When all of the opportunities fail to realize, Abby makes an appointment with the local fertility clinic but Gilman Hawkins offers up himself as the possible father to be. What ensues is the best friends to lovers relationship between Abby and Gilly, and the potential fall-out when Gilman’s past comes demanding a second chance.

Gilman and Abby have been best friends most of their lives but both are oblivious to the possibility of a happily ever after-together. Everyone else sees the love and adoration they have for one another but never once did Abby consider Gilman as the father of her ‘future’ child. Having watched one another falter with other people, Gilman suggests they try taking their friendship to the next level in the hopes of one day having their own HEA.

The relationship between Abby and Gilly is a friends to lovers relationship but both fear losing one another if everything fails. Abby is desperate to start a family of her own having watched her friends and her sister fall in love, something she fears will never happen to her. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

Once again, the Cartwright sisters play secondary and supporting roles including Taylor, Mia and Vanessa. We are introduced to Gillman’s ex girlfriend Giselle; and lineman Eric Declan. Here’s hoping the author has plans for Eric and Mia’s story.

PREGNANCY SCANDAL is a story of friendship and love; family and happily ever after. The premise is entertaining; the characters are flirty and lively; the romance is provocative and hot. PREGNANCY SCANDAL is a great addition to the author’s The Bad Boy Bachelors of Orange County erotic, romance series.
