Synopsis:
Mari meets Luca on an adult website. She’s still smarting from a divorce and only looking to explore her desires. They create wish lists of their sexual fantasies and agree to work through them together. No strings, no attachments, nothing but pleasure, and Mari anticipates their first meeting with impatience. But through a miscommunication involving a private text message and Mari’s nosy brother, Luca ends up at her 30th birthday party, before their planned rendezvous. Much to her surprise, they seem to connect better than she expected, and in ways she hadn’t expected. He’s strong, commanding, but also gentle and respectful and he makes her ache in ways she never thought possible.
But when Luca later expresses a desire for something more than just casual sex, Mari's impulse is to run the other way. After all, her failed marriage is evidence that she really shouldn’t go much deeper. Can Luca convince Mari otherwise? Can he help her see that he's her ultimate birthday wish come true?
Birthday Wishes is Book 1 in The List Series is intended for an adult audience only and contains mature themes, including graphic and explicit sex.

What do you wish for for your birthday? Clothes? Money? Concert tickets?
Newly divorced, very disheartened and not to mention horny, for her 30th birthday Mari has given herself the ultimate wish list.
She has met a man, Luca, online, and they have agreed on a no holds barred, no sttrings attached, casual sex relationship, and have both created a list of things they want to do to each other.
She gets sidetracked on the way to their first rendezvous, to a surprise party her family and friends are holding for her. Inadvertantly, after intercepting a text message from Luca, Mari's brother invites him to the party. And this happens....
Well, not exactly that, but when she sees him at her party, Mari is floored. He is much more gorgeous, much sexier than she ever thought possible, and the sexual attraction between the two is palpable.
But how is she going to explain him to her mother?
Mari is gunshy after her failed marriage, and this is why this arrangement is perfect for her. But what will she do when Luca tells her he wants more?
Luca is just damn hot... and he knows what to do with his toys - ben wah balls anyone???
Mari and Luca just sizzle up the pages - I just wish there were more of them! Birthday Wishes is a short, fast paced, sexy and fun read and I know we don't have long to wait for more, but at the end I was all "oh. it's over already?"
If you need something quick to read inbetween your full length novels, make sure you give Birthday Wishes a read!
