Stay by Tia Louise

❤❤❤❤❤

Absolutely loved it! I can't say enough about this story, it has everything:

✔ Frenemies to Lovers

✔ Brooding Millionaire

✔ Single Mother

✔ Adorable Kid

✔ Asshole Ex

✔ Quirky Friends

✔ Humor

I've never read a story before that embodied it's title so well. I'll literally think of Stephen and Emmy whenever I hear the word "Stay" from now on.

I have to be honest, Emmy's son Eli is the one who stole the show. His innocence will win you over from the moment you meet him and you'll find yourself drawn to the story just for him alone.

Let's not forget about the fact that Emmy can't stand Stephen, which she's never afraid to say to his face, making for hysterically awkward moments.

There were moments where I just wanted to shake both of the main characters, so they could see what was right in front of them, but I suppose that's what makes the journey worthwhile.

I laughed, cried, then laughed some more. Read it and you can thank me later! The characters are ones you'll want to keep coming back for, even after you've finished reading.

Stephen Hastings is a control freak. He's arrogant. He's smart as a whip and sexy AF. He has too much money. He's bossy, and he's usually right. All I saw were his clear blue eyes, tight butt, and ripped torso. I gladly handed him my V-card that night, ten years ago. I was so stupid. I swore I'd never be that stupid again...

Emmy Barton works for a dry cleaner? Yes, that Emmy Barton - long, blonde hair, bright blue eyes, pretty smile... Sexy little body. Smart mouth. She was the only girl who interested me, but I was leaving to be an officer in the Navy.

Now I'm home, running my business. My life is perfectly ordered until I bump into her, divorced and struggling to make ends meet. I hate seeing her like this. I hate that she married Burt "The Dick" Dickerson. What an a--hole.

She says she hates me, but when we fight, it's all heat and lust. I won't leave her this way. She will let me help her and her son. She will stay... It's a thin line between love and hate, and this line is on fire.
