Resumen del Editor

I'm not supposed to want my ex-boyfriend's dad.

But after one scorching night last summer with a sexy, older man who instinctively knew how much I wanted to be called his “good girl," I can't stop thinking about him.

Of course, back then, I had no idea who Gideon was. Still, we both agreed that one night was our only night. Our lives were too complicated for anything more, no matter how much I craved it.

Then, our paths collide again at my ex’s fundraiser. That’s where I learn the truth about who Gideon really is.

I also learn that he’s forbidden with a capital F.

I know I should stay away from him, but this “good girl” is suddenly ready to go bad. Very, very bad.

We can’t have a future, so we agree to take it one wild night at a time.

Until an unexpected betrayal threatens to bring all our dark secrets into the light....

Loved this one

Gideon and Sydney would have never normally crossed paths, but on a fateful night with a terrible storm blowing through Maine they find each other in close quarters and sparks fly. One night is all they expected so when they cross paths months later and realize the connections they have to one another, it’s quite a shock.
This is much more than a one night fling with an older man and I love it!

Great Story

Great story low angst. Lili always tells a good story with just enough spice. I love how I wasn't able to predict the twists the story would take. I know it was a standalone but there were definitely side characters I'd love to see in the future.

Really good!

I really liked this one. It’s got a great storyline and the writing it’s excellent. The characters are diverse and they develop as the story progresses. The narration is excellent - as you would expect with these two (I’m a big Ryan West fan!)! I definitely recommend this one And I’m looking forward to the next book!

Messy beautiful love

I loved, loved Sydney and Gideon’s age-gap, forbidden, ONS, virgin, beautifully messy romance. This story had the perfect balance of humor, love, real life issues, and spicy spice with a generous amount of supportive friends, messy families, painful pasts, and unexpected curve balls. Sydney is a 24 year old virgin who’s a perfectionist and has spent her life trying to please her high powered father. Gideon is a 39 year old billionaire father with a 22 year old son. When Sydney and Gideon meet in Maine, they have an instant and intense attraction and chemistry which results in a steamy ONS. They part ways amicably planning to never see each other again. When they meet again in NYC, they discover Gideon’s son is Sydney ex-boyfriend (who she was not intimate with) and that’s just the beginning of their complications. Deciding to stay away from each other is harder than it should be but should they stay away or embrace what they could have? The journey to their HEA involved all the good baggage unpacking and angst inducing character growth. This complicated and heartwarming story was well written and included witty dialogue, three dimensional characters, and an engaging storyline.

Ryan West and Lili Valente did a phenomenal job narrating the story and characters into life with enough change of inflection, tone and cadence to voice multiple characters quite convincingly. I love listening to books narrated by the author.

One night stand is my favorite trope!

Loved this story! I always like a one night stand and then they run into each other again in some precarious situation. Nothing was drug out too long. Narrators were good . Love Ryan West.

Loved this one!!

I adored Gideon and Sydney! They had an immediate connection when they first met despite their age gap and it never diminished while they were apart. Nice amount of heat and not a major amount of drama. I did like that it wasn't for a long period of time as well.
Definitely a great read!
I listened to the audiobook as well and really loved Lili Valente and Ryan West's performances. Very well cast!

Emotional and Steamy Listen

I loved this story. Take Me I’m Yours was a steamy and emotional listen that was a lot of fun. Gideon and Sydney were a perfect match despite their age difference. Their attraction was instantaneous, but the bond that they developed was deep and everlasting.

I loved both of these characters. Their interactions were full of heart and flirty banter and the chemistry between them was off the charts. Both were passionate about each other and the things they cared deeply about. Despite the many obstacles in their way, they were able to strengthen the feelings between them and stay true to themselves. I loved their journey and how they handled every issue that was thrown at them.

Ryan West and Lili Valente were great as the narrators of this story. Both infused so much emotion and passion into their performances and really helped me get lost in the story. Take Me I’m Yours was an fun insta-love read that with great, well-developed characters that will have you rooting for their HEA.

Take this (audiobook), it's yours (if you want)!

Lili Valente surpassed any and all my expectations with Take Me, I'm Yours. I honestly feel like this is her best work to date. She's a whiz when it comes to her hilarious romantic comedies, but there's just something about this latest standalone of hers that has me smitten. It's swoony and witty and just hits me in the feels. The main characters, Sydney and Gideon, have a decade and a half age gap between them, but it never felt salacious. Add to that the surprising revelation of who Gideon actually is, and it was as if the odds were stacked against these two. So, does true love conquer all or are Sydney and Gideon headed for heartache?

From the get-go, this story had me, and there was simply no way that grip Sydney and Gideon had on my heart was going to slip. That's in large part due to Lili Valente's writing, which just felt so inspired from start to finish. I loved the element of the forbidden, more so the acknowledgment that as hot as things were between them physically, this was true love for both and how they were willing to fight for what they had as a couple. There were pleasant little surprises when it came to the direction the story took, and I'm always a fan of an author who manages to do that, especially in an admittedly crowded genre like romance. Valente also happens to be one of the narrators of this audiobook, and with Ryan West narrating alongside her, they've elevated Take Me, I'm Yours to eargasmic levels. Five-plus stars.
