Silver Foxed by Kayla Grosse
4.0

I devoured this smexy time read in one sitting. It's a short, easy read. Great palette cleanser. 

Even though it is a short read, I enjoyed that the author still provided enough conflict to keep me hooked. The forbidden relationship between Alex & Elijah is not only too hot to handle, but also just dang adorable.

Alexandra is a curvy goddess who escapes her everyday life to relax at her dad's lake house. She plans to cook her favorite foods, enjoy the lake, and relax half naked.

Elijah is a divorcee workaholic with a boss & bestie who forces him to take time off. Bestie offers up his lake house. As hesitant as he is to go, this workaholic decides to take time for himself & write his novel.

When these two meet - at the lake house - it's awkward but also exciting. The author writes the instant attraction really well. You can feel the organic appeal between the two, it doesnt feel forced. For a shorter story, the author did not disappoint when it comes to building the heat & growing the relationship.
The little "let's play house" game was so friggin cute but like hot too. The brèêding kïnk  was also done really well.
 
I liked that, as a larger woman, the fmc didn't put herself down during the story. The fact that she was larger wasn't a focus. It was a detail. Her size was written about in a  worshiping way during the smex scenes, but not really much else. It was refreshing to have a curvy feature, not be written like a personality train.

Super well written.
Highly recommend
