As her daughter’s wedding draws near, Jamie Cooper-Howe knows it’ll take everything she’s got to put up with her ex-husband and his new trophy wife for the weekend. But just as the weekend starts off, best man Mark Bentley shows up. The gorgeous, younger man is definitely interested and makes no bones about it. His pursuit is as relentless as it is flattering. Can Jamie let loose enough to enjoy a weekend fling?

Mark Bentley is surprised and delighted when he meets the mother of the bride. A weekend with this sexy woman is just what he needs to make this trip home truly worthwhile. So how will this love ‘em and leave ‘em ladies man react when he realizes he may just want something more than what Jamie is willing to give?

Although May-December romances are often trite and boring, Impulsive Pleasures most definitely isn’t! Jamie is a woman still bearing the scars from her divorce and only with Mark’s attention does she truly begin to move past that pain. Although she repeatedly tells herself they have no true relationship, it’s evident fairly early on that one could develop between them. Mark, while younger than Jamie, seems mature enough to handle a woman in her prime. I loved that Jamie finally begins to see herself as a strong, vibrant, beautiful woman again through Mark’s eyes. In addition, I enjoyed how she was finally able to show her ex exactly what he threw away for his younger wife and at the same time remain classy and true to herself.
