Elijah Astor is Alex Martin’s dream man. Smart, funny, loyal, and devilishly handsome, she’s eager for a taste of this silver fox who’s accidentally crashed her relaxing weekend at her parent’s lake house. But, of course, there’s a catch. Because Elijah isn’t just an employee of Alex’s dad—he’s also Oliver Martin’s best friend. Unwilling to deny the sparks flying between them, Alex make’s Elijah an offer: a weekend of non-strings-attached fun, where they can play house and indulge the fantasies they share. One weekend to pretend that Oliver Martin wouldn’t freak out about them being together. But living a fantasy so close to what their hearts’ desire is a risk, because when the weekend ends, neither is sure they’ll be able to let go.
I picked this one up after enjoying Axes & O’s, my first encounter with Kayla Grosse. I was keen for a fun, fast read to finish off November on a high, and this ended up being a great fit! Lighthearted and humorous, Silver Foxed is a solid choice for fans of age gap and forbidden romances, two of my absolute favourite things. I really connected with FMC Alex’s spirit and her determination. I loved seeing her bloom into her hot-girl badass-bitch era and the forbidden element in the attraction between her and MMC Elijah—the silver fox😉—made for an utterly delicious novella.
