40-Love

By: Olivia Dade

Narrated by: Kelsey Navarro

This match is no game.

When a rogue wave strips Tess Dunn of her bikini top, desperate, half-naked times call for desperate, please-cover-me-kids-are-coming-closer measures. Enter Lucas Karlsson, aka that flirty Swede-in-the-water-nearby. When he prevents her bare buoys from being exposed to fellow vacationers, even an ocean can't drown the sparks that fly.

Lucas, a former top-level tennis pro now giving lessons at the resort, fled there after the abrupt, painful end to his injury-plagued career. But he's finally ready to move on with his life - and after a few late-night hands-on sessions with Tess, he's eager to prove he's the ace she wants.

But this match comes with challenges: She's 40, and at 26, he's barely old enough to rent a car. Worse, they only have two weeks together before Tess returns to her assistant-principal life in Virginia. During that brief time, they'll have to play hard, take a few risks, and find out whether their chemistry is a one-shot wonder...or whether they're meant to be doubles partners for life.

Curvy Girl Romance over 40

I enjoyed this read. A lot of heat and somehow before they Both, MMC and MFC fell in Love 💝 Both wounded and really didn't want to Chance of being hurt again 😔💔. Great Narration and eell written. Good listen and recommend it. 💝⭐🔥

th guy being so young

I honestly did not want to read this just cause the guy was to young for her. but he is actually perfect for her. really good book.

Another win from Dade!

I love the main characters in this book and their story arc. They both had difficulties and faults, but they helped each other grow and see their own strengths. I love the body diversity and the nod to chronic pain and injury. Wonderful book and so glad I read it.

Vacations Rule!!

Picture it, an island, palms swaying in the light wind, waves lapping on the glass like shore.
This is where our story begins! Friends on vacation, a tennis pro who likes to save topless women in the ocean... You can just imagine where our story goes from here.
There is something about Marysburg, well written, aignst, steamy, and love. Olivia Dade does it again!

Well written realistic male lead.

Olivia writes great love dynamics with realistic and wonderful flawed characters. While there are HEAs I love how natural they flow from the well written characters and their growth throughout the stories.
