One morning， Maxwell Stewart left the building where his penthouse apartment is and turned right when he got to the garage instead of going for his Jaguar。 Two blocks down， he finds the Sterling Cafe and sits down at an outside table。 He orders an espresso and a lemon scone。 His instincts were on high alert。 Then Mina showed up for her shift at the Cafe。 This story is fun to read and is full of laughter， steam， romance， and ends in a HEA。 Highly recommended。

Mina takes one look at him and knows he’s made of money and wants nothing to do with Malcom。 Malcolm has always welcomed the challenge and always gets what he wants。 This couples chemistry is sizzling off the charts。 I loved the zingers they had for each other， the flirting is top notch which leaves them both in a tizzy at most times。 I enjoyed their storyline of each determined to keep their hearts out of it， but those pesky emotions get the best of them。I am voluntarily leaving a review for th Mina takes one look at him and knows he’s made of money and wants nothing to do with Malcom。 Malcolm has always welcomed the challenge and always gets what he wants。 This couples chemistry is sizzling off the charts。 I loved the zingers they had for each other， the flirting is top notch which leaves them both in a tizzy at most times。 I enjoyed their storyline of each determined to keep their hearts out of it， but those pesky emotions get the best of them。I am voluntarily leaving a review for this book that I received free。 。。。more

Malcolm and Mina's story is my favorite from this series followed by Boz/Lucy and Teddy/Drew。 Their competitive natures led them into some adventures the others didn't and their chemistry was off the charts。。。which was witnessed in the scene from the office without him touching her。 With neither of them not knowing what love really was， it was especially interesting watching them fall and not know it！！ Money may not be the answer to everything but it does solve a lot of problems。 Malcolm didn' h Malcolm and Mina's story is my favorite from this series followed by Boz/Lucy and Teddy/Drew。 Their competitive natures led them into some adventures the others didn't and their chemistry was off the charts。。。which was witnessed in the scene from the office without him touching her。 With neither of them not knowing what love really was， it was especially interesting watching them fall and not know it！！ Money may not be the answer to everything but it does solve a lot of problems。 Malcolm didn' hesitate to use his wealth for good without having to be asked。 Some bets are just realities waiting to happen。 I could have easily scored this 5 stars instead of 4。5 but again， the F-bombs just kept being dropped when there are plenty of other words in the English language。。。just saying！！I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Great book， the last in the Sterling Place series。 It's kind of sad to reach the end but it ended on a high with Mina and Malcom！ They both wanted each other but also were very reluctant to cross into the lovers side， just wanting to dive in to a lust filled no holds barred sexathon！ However， they knew they were in trouble after the first encounter。 I loved how Mina and Malcom circled each other not wanting to commit but of course they get their HEA！ You need to read this book， in fact you need Great book， the last in the Sterling Place series。 It's kind of sad to reach the end but it ended on a high with Mina and Malcom！ They both wanted each other but also were very reluctant to cross into the lovers side， just wanting to dive in to a lust filled no holds barred sexathon！ However， they knew they were in trouble after the first encounter。 I loved how Mina and Malcom circled each other not wanting to commit but of course they get their HEA！ You need to read this book， in fact you need to read the whole series！I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

Surprised by the Adventure of LoveIt is difficult to trust in romantic love as a real emotion—one that can last—if one has never really been loved unconditionally or witnessed such a love。 While Willamina—Mina—DelGatto had reached the age of 32 absolutely enjoying physical relationships， she never went into a sexual relationship with the expectation of anything more than a fling—a brief interlude。 The beautiful golden-green eyed woman with brown hair and a curvy， strong body enjoyed the brief pl Surprised by the Adventure of LoveIt is difficult to trust in romantic love as a real emotion—one that can last—if one has never really been loved unconditionally or witnessed such a love。 While Willamina—Mina—DelGatto had reached the age of 32 absolutely enjoying physical relationships， she never went into a sexual relationship with the expectation of anything more than a fling—a brief interlude。 The beautiful golden-green eyed woman with brown hair and a curvy， strong body enjoyed the brief pleasure of sharing her body when she found a man who interested her for the moment， but she never lost control of her heart。 She simply did not believe in romantic love。 Ironically， living at Sterling Place， the beautiful 19th century Beaux Arts mansion tucked away on a small dead-end street in the heart of NYC， one would expect that Mina would not question the existence of romantic love。 She was surrounded by family and friends who not only believed in romantic love， they actively engaged in demonstrable loving relationships。 The Sterling Place mansion unquestionably embodied romantic love in action， with its collection of young loving families filling the apartments into which the mansion had been sub-divided years earlier。 Even her twin sister， Theodora—Teddy—had recently succumbed to the call of love and would soon bear twins—the result of her loving relationship with her partner， Drew Whittaker。 But， Mina just didn’t trust in love—certainly not as anything but a fleeting， impermanent adventure。Now， Mina in her safe-space—Mrs Mancini’s café located on the 1st floor of the Sterling Mansion where she worked to fund her world travels and adventures—has unwillingly encountered a man who challenges her at every turn。 Malcolm Stewart the tall， handsome and physically imposing real estate mogul with Belize-blue eyes and curly dark-blond hair and always attired in his bespoke suits and Italian leather shoes， is a man willing to follow his instincts。 So， when instead of getting into his car at his building’s garage and heading to his office by turning left， he followed his instincts and turned right， walking down an enticing street lined with flowering trees and the smell of freshly-baked sweet pastries。 And continuing to listen to his instincts， he followed the delicious pastry smell enhanced by the rich， dark smell of coffee into a charming but tired-looking neighborhood café。 And when he laid his eyes on a beautiful， but sharp-tongued waitress who was most unimpressed by his tailored elegance， he decided to explore the adventure of the beautiful， feisty waitress named Mina whom fate had brought to his attention。 And， even if he had to acquire the café for his real estate portfolio to guarantee the opportunity of spending time with her， he would allow his instincts to guide him。LA Pepper continues her powerful and engaging storytelling in the Sterling Place series。 She weaves passionate and sensuous tales of love and discovery that are filled with unexpected twists， turns and tunnels around the Sterling siblings and their friends as the reader explores the relationship of Mina and Malcolm。 And， while the Sterling family and friends experience challenges not always of their own making， they face them with love and determination encountering only a few bumps and scrapes along their way to happiness and wholeness。 This romance is a reading adventure well worth the reader’s attention。 It reads well alone， but is even better with the knowledge that relationships will spin out of the group of friends who have become family。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review ARCS， but I enjoyed the reading experience so much that I bought a copy for my "read-again" titles。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 L。A。 Pepper’s novel Just My Fake Marriage is a delightfully hot romance。 Billionaire Malcolm becomes obsessed with a beautiful waitress named Mina， who initially rejects him。 Through misunderstandings they spar humorously to eventually bet on who will make the other fall in love with them。 Their sexual attraction is through the roof in this fast paste adventure of two people who don’t believe that they will ever fall in love。

Pepper Does it Again！ This novel was fantastic all the way from beginning to end。 I was so into the novel; I could not put it down。 The characters were two very-driven individuals。 Yet， Pepper writes them in a style where they are also so nice and respectful of others。 I love it when an author writes a novel that exhibits individuals in such a way where they are directed in what they want for themselves but care about other individuals and their feelings。 Kudos to Pepper for writing a well-thoug Pepper Does it Again！ This novel was fantastic all the way from beginning to end。 I was so into the novel; I could not put it down。 The characters were two very-driven individuals。 Yet， Pepper writes them in a style where they are also so nice and respectful of others。 I love it when an author writes a novel that exhibits individuals in such a way where they are directed in what they want for themselves but care about other individuals and their feelings。 Kudos to Pepper for writing a well-thought-out story。 Thoroughly enjoyed it！I received an advance review copy， and I am leaving this review voluntarily。 。。。more

This story is quite funny to be honest。 I loved it。 These two have some very interesting ideas in their heads for sure。 This is not a normal fake marriage。 They actually have to get married at some point。 There is some misunderstnadngs but also some lies， and hot steamy time。 So if you are prepared to read a good fake to real marriage this one is it。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。

The Chase Is On！This is my absolute favorite book in the Sterling Place series。 Malcolm's suave， debonnaire， a laid-back billionaire who can also be the infuriating， cocky， melt your panties off， hot alpha！ This story is fast-paced， even though Malcolm is patient in waiting for Mina to change her mind as he always gets what he wants。 The banter between them is entertaining as they like to bait each other & try to trip the other so the "tripper" wins their agreed upon bets。 Off to Costa Rica for The Chase Is On！This is my absolute favorite book in the Sterling Place series。 Malcolm's suave， debonnaire， a laid-back billionaire who can also be the infuriating， cocky， melt your panties off， hot alpha！ This story is fast-paced， even though Malcolm is patient in waiting for Mina to change her mind as he always gets what he wants。 The banter between them is entertaining as they like to bait each other & try to trip the other so the "tripper" wins their agreed upon bets。 Off to Costa Rica for an adventure where their world is turned upside down。 Definitely a must-read novel （as well as the previous books in this series）。 This is what an amazing romance novel is all about！I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND Instead of heading to his car and work Malcolm decided to take a stroll。 Which is something he never does， but today he needed a change。 When he comes across an old world styled cafe on the bottom floor of a huge mansion he is intrigued。 He wondered if they had space for another tenant or better yet he could buy the whole building。As he's sitting waiting for his espresso and lemon scone he can't help but feel that he is there for a reason and then he hears her voice and know she HIGHLY RECOMMEND Instead of heading to his car and work Malcolm decided to take a stroll。 Which is something he never does， but today he needed a change。 When he comes across an old world styled cafe on the bottom floor of a huge mansion he is intrigued。 He wondered if they had space for another tenant or better yet he could buy the whole building。As he's sitting waiting for his espresso and lemon scone he can't help but feel that he is there for a reason and then he hears her voice and know she's the reason he was drawn here。 When he overhears her conversation with the other waitresses about being away for a month he tries to think what he can do to get her in his bed tonight before her flight the next day。And then she falls into his lap。。。。literally。 Her friend was spinning her around in an impromptu dance and over spun。 She was full of disdain when he asked her out， but he wasn't worried he had a month to make plans。Some idiot at the airport spilled coffee on her new Islandic kimono。 One she just purchased on her trip and couldn't replace since it was designed just for her。 As she's talking to the drycleaner he tells her he has her perfect mate since they have the same love of textiles。 She laughs。。。drycleaning to forecast love？Then she sees the cafe she works had， but it is no longer her cafe。 It has been bought and totally renovated。 No more old world charm。 It was now brand spanking new and elegant。 And the new owner was no other than the man she had turned down for a date。Malcolm's grandmother left him a coffee plantation in Costa Rica。 The catch。。。he had to be married and his wife had to attend the reading of the will。 So Malcolm offered Mina a fully paid holiday and ownership of the cafe for one week of her playing his fake wife。 Then he decided a wager would sweeten the deal。 If he could get her to fall in love with him during that week she had to move in as his lover for the period of a year。 Mina made a counter offer - if he was the one to fall in love he would give her a billion dollars free and clear。Since they neither had a clue of the definition of love she interviewed her happily married and in love friends。 Malcolm and Mina reviewed the list and divided them as FALLING IN LOVE and NONSENSE。 Because really "。。。the hottest thing I ever saw。。。" "。。。wanted to link them all over。。。" and "。。。couldn't stay away from them。。。"。 Total nonsense。 I loved this book and spending more time at Sterling Place。 I loved getting reacquainted with Mina's family of friends。 I loved Mina's feistiness。 Her disbelief in love because of abandonment issues made her very cynical。 Malcolm had never had anyone in his life to love him so he worked and worked to fill up the void。The sexual chemistry between Malcolm and Mina was obvious from page one。 He was determined to have her no matter what thinking he could sleep with her once and the lust would go away。 Even as Mina hated him she couldn't deny how much she waned Malcolm。 Their trip to South America turned out to be more thrilling than they expected。 There were death defying hurdles and a smoking hot honeymoon。 I absolutely loved this book！ Highly recommend L。 A。 Pepper！ 。。。more
