F-BOMB
Series: Bear Bottom MC #9
Author: Lani Lynn Vale
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Release Date: May 14th, 2019
You murder a man, and all of a sudden people are scared of you.
Slate Solis went from being a guy that people went to in times of need to an ex-con that people crossed the street to avoid being too close to.
He knows he’s done wrong, but out of all of his sins, only one really bothers him—coveting thy neighbor’s wife.
Harleigh Belle—the cute little lady that never gives him a second glance.
After seeing her for the first time while he was in prison, she’s stayed on his mind for three long years. Each time she comes in to visit with her friend on family day, he can’t help but stare.
Then the day comes that he’s set free, and he’s almost disappointed that he’ll never see her again.
Except fate has different plans.
He hasn’t been back in his house for more than three hours when he sees her.
Harleigh Belle in all her glory…oh, and her husband that is everything Slate isn’t.
He tells himself that her being fifty feet away from him, all day every day, is a complete coincidence. One that he shouldn’t take advantage of. The more time passes, the harder it gets to stay away. Until one day, and one very ill-timed thunderstorm, ruin everything.
Who knew that baby-making-weather was a real thing?
5 ‘I Fell In Love. Deep. Hard. Forever’ Stars
O.M.F-Bomb.G!!! Slate and Haleigh’s story was the PERFECT wrap up for yet another brilliant Lani Lynn Vale series! Heart poundingly emotional, gut hurting funny and, hot and bothered SCORCHING F-Bomb truly is a full on body experience!!!
Slate Solis is the man I’ve been more curious about from this series. Every since the very first book, where we got Izzy and Rome’s story in Mess Me Up, when Slate was introduced to us, as well as the unveiling of his tragic past and what got him in prison, I’ve been dying to see him get his HEA, and what role his past would have in his future happiness. I can honestly say that Ms. Vale crafted that past into his story, it all in the most perfect and unexpected of ways, because not once did I feel that Harleigh was not his true love. We felt the need, the hunger, the desire, the yearning, was there from the very first sight of her. Even if he thought she was a married woman, lol. He just couldn’t stop his craving, but hell, he fought the pull with everything he had, but once it was clear she was free and all his for the taking… Control unleashed! LOL
I felt that grin in my soul…if my vagina could be considered my soul.
Harleigh we know from the very first LLV series, Freeboards, as Max and Payton’s baby girl. Like all the Free kids, she’s overall AWESOME and kickass, but in reaction to her hot neighbor apparent dislike of her, she shows she’s my ‘spirit animal’ because she just took it and gave it back tenfold in the attitude department. With the ever present chemistry there, this bickering between them just became the most delicious kind banter.
I did know one thing, though, and that was that a starving man could only hold out for so long. Place something like Harleigh, who was a feast, in front of him and well, let’s just say that there would come a time when even the most well behaved of men would break. And
I wasn’t well behaved.Only…my body wanted him.
I wanted him.
Who was I to deny myself something it wanted as badly as I did Slate?
Once they had nothing in their way, all the misconceptions cleared, and the attraction just became too much to contain, and all that craving unleashed, WOW…Talk about perfect timing with the baby making weather as background! Perfect setting! And so unmeasurably HOT!!!
Slate and Harleigh were indeed the perfect cherry ending on top of this amazing series. Slate is now amongst my all time fav LLV, and best book boyfriends. He stole a bit of my heart way back then on Mess Me Up, and now I just fell head over heels for the big, loner and kind, bearded man. Add to that his obsession, protectiveness and undying love and devotion for Haleigh, even when he was trying so hard to alienate the feeling, he just conquered my heart completely. Harleigh is such a relatable character, completely unapologetic – which I floved! – and such an overall amazing female main character. How could she not with those parents?!
Lani Lynn Vale couldn’t have tied up more beautifully the Bear Botton MC. These were the perfect characters to give us all the feels but also all the closure we needed from this gang, and what a better way than a trip to Disney World?! LOL. I loved every second of F-Bomb, and that Epilogue was the most stunning and heart warming way to wrap up this journey, while also simultaneously being the golden key for future and new series, because with that teasing of Harleigh’s brother, Dax, character?! I need his very own book STAT!!! <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Seeing the woman underneath me happy would be my top priority.
“Don’t worry, Slate. You’d have to chase me off at this point. There are quite a few things about you that have me addicted.”
I smiled.
“Like what?” I asked.
“Your kiss,” she said softly, her breath mingling with my chest hairs. “Your touch.” I swallowed when she trailed a kiss from one pec to the other. “You. All of you.”
I fell in love.
Deep.
Hard.
Forever.
