Newly divorced and nearing forty, Meg runs an adult toy shop for the summer—and falls for her younger landlord. What starts as playful afternoons turns into something deeper in this flirty, steamy, neighbors-to-lovers romance.
Freshly divorced and nearing forty, Meg regrets making all the safe choices. When her best friend needs surgery, Meg puts her accounting career on hold to run her friend’s racy adult toy shop—but her vanilla life never prepared her for this!
At thirty-two, Zak leaves the tech world for his dad’s antique store, wanting time with him before dementia erases his father’s memories. He’s Meg’s landlord, but she becomes his confidante, distracting him from his troubles with her suggestive puns and amusing misadventures.
Flirty banter leads to test-driving toys together, but Meg knows they won’t last. Their age-gap puts them in different life-stages and she lives in Toronto. A few afternoons of delight can’t change her life. Can they?
Afternoon Delight is a stand-alone, slow-burn to steamy, neighbors-to-lovers, older woman/younger man romance. No cliffhangers, no cheating, just laughs, chemistry, and heart.
“Fresh, raw, and real, Afternoon Delight is everything I want in a modern contemporary romance. Dani Collins brings all the spice and all the feelings in equal measure, and I tore through this book. Meg and Zak worked their way into my heart. This is going on the re-read shelf!” — Zoe York, aka Ainsley Booth, New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author of Prime Minister and The Playing Game
