ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 15, 2020

I’m the wrong guy for her.

She’s sunshine, and cherry pie. I’m whiskey and fast cars. I’m also keeping one hell of a secret from the woman I’ve wanted for years.

But when I find a list my sister left behind for Ruby, I’ve got no choice but to offer the sexy, big-hearted girl next door both a road trip and a chance.

A chance to discover how big she can dream.

And if some of those dreams play out in the bedroom? Well, there’s nothing wrong with a few — okay, several — hot nights together as we hit the beach, visit old stomping grounds, and test all sorts of limits, in and out of the sheets.

Seven days, then I’m off, moving across the country, far away from her.

No way can things get complicated in a week. Ruby and I aren’t the kind of dream that has a shot of coming true.

Especially once she learns what I’ve done.

REVIEW:GOOD WITH HIS HANDS is the first instalment in the contemporary, adult GOOD IN BED erotic, romance series co-authored by Lauren Blakely and Lili Valente. This is twenty-seven year old, illustrator Ruby Valentine, and artist Jesse Hendrix’ story line.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Jesse and Ruby) GOOD WITH HIS HANDS follows the best friend’s brother relationship between twenty seven year old illustrator Ruby Valentine, and artist Jesse Hendrix. Two years later Ruby’s life imploded when her best friend Claire Hendrix aka Jesse’s sister died following a car accident that left Ruby struggling for her life. Fast forward to present day, after two years of therapy, Ruby is ready to move on with her life when Jesse presents Ruby with a bucket list of no regrets, a list drawn up by Claire that Ruby and Jesse are about to fulfill but timing is crucial as New Yorker Jesse Hendrix is set to move out to California, to start a new career without the woman with whom he is falling in love. What ensues is the two -week relationship and journey of no regrets between Jesse and Ruby, and the potential fall-out as Jesse reveals a secret about the list Claire wanted Ruby to finish.

Jesse Hendrix lost his only sister two years earlier but the loss brought him closer to Ruby Valentine. Ruby has always had a crush on her best friend’s brother but never knew that Jesse felt the same about her in return. With the list of no regrets about to be fulfilled, Jesse and Ruby realize that falling in love may be the biggest ‘no regret’ of all. The $ex scenes are passionate and seductive without the use of over the top,sexually graphic language and text.

We are introduced to Ruby’s best friend and cousin Gigi, as well as Ruby’s mother who owns and operates Sweetie Pies bakery. Gigi’s story line is next in GOOD TO BE BAD.

GOOD WITH HIS HANDS is a fun and flirty story line. The premise is entertaining and captivating; the romance is flirtatious and enthusiastic; the characters are dynamic and imaginative.
