ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 12, 2019
Can I convince her our hot but temporary engagement should last forever?
I’m Stephen Lund, confirmed bachelor…and son of a successful billionaire whose sins I can’t forget—or forgive. After he delivered an ultimatum to either get over his transgressions or get out of the family business, I put space between us with a temporary getaway to Maui. My rental’s sexy caretaker, Skye Ingram, is a beautiful distraction. Yeah, it’s a terrible time to start a fling, but I can’t help wanting to give her every bit of pleasure she’s willing to take.
When Skye needs a date to her ex-boyfriend’s wedding, I’m game to play her pretend fiancé. The jerk should see what he passed up…and that I’m holding her now. But our pretend engagement begins to feel real. Our passion certainly is. So are the consequences. When I’m confronted with the reality that our lives are now irrevocably entwined, I have to choose between leaving Skye to return to the life—and wealth—I’ve always known or abandoning everything familiar to start over with the woman who awakened my heart.
**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.**

REVIEW: MORE THAN PLEASURE YOU by Shayla Black is instalment 5.5 in the author’s contemporary, adult MORE THAN WORDS erotic romance series, and the latest instalment in the multi-authored 1001 Dark Nights series. This is businessman Stephen Lund, and Skye Ingram’s story line. MORE THAN PLEASURE YOU can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary.
NOTE: For fans of the MORE THAN WORDS series, some of the timeline of More Than Pleasure You runs parallel to, and crosses over with some of the events in More Than Tempt You.
Told from first person perspective (Stephen Lund) MORE THAN PLEASURE YOU follows the quick building relationship between businessman Stephen Lund, and Skye Ingram. Skye Ingram works at a Maui vacation rental but when her ex-boyfriend invites Skye to his wedding, Skye finds herself in a predicament when she discovers that said ex-boyfriend has told his mother, a woman who believes that Skye and her son are bound to be together, that Skye has found her own happily ever after. Needing a ‘fake fiance’, Skye is shocked when sexy guest Stephen Lund, having overheard Skye’s phone conversation, offers up his services as her fake fiancé. With just days to get to know one another, Skye and Stephen prepare themselves for the onslaught of questions never expecting to fall in love. What ensues is the building relationship and love between Stephen and Skye, and the potential fall-out when the truth about Stephen’s visit to Maui is revealed.
The relationship between Stephen and Skye is a fake fiancé relationship that turns into something more. With their instant attraction, and palpable sexual energy their connection was immediate, and faking it was never in question but Stephen hasn’t been truthful about his reasons for his visit to Maui. The limited $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top,sexually graphic language and text.
There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including all of the previous story line couples, as well as Skye’s ex-boyfriend Finn and his fiancé Dana, and Finn’s mother Sherry.
MORE THAN PLEASURE YOU is a quick read of insta lust to love; a story of family, secrets, lies and love. The fast paced premise is inviting and engaging; the characters are flirty and fun; the romance is seductive.
