About this ebook

I need a fake date. She needs my late-night expertise. Now, if we can just keep our hands off each other...

As the premier best-man-for hire in all of Manhattan, I promise discretion, so when I need a plus one for a couple of “I dos,” I turn to my gorgeous, clever, witty best friend’s sister. She's my good friend, too, and I lust after her completely. I mean, I TRUST her completely.

After all, just look how she's kept her lips sealed about the hot, multi-O night we spent together. Yes, just look at those sexy lips.

In any case, we only fell off the wagon once, and it was months ago. I’m sure we can make it through these weddings without banging each other in the limo. 

Or can we?

INSTANT GRATIFICATION is a sexy, standalone romantic comedy!

Ratings and reviews

Lauren has done it again. Instant Gratification is a friends to lovers/best friend’s sister story. Truly is the sister of Malone, the hero from Satisfaction Guaranteed and Jason is his best friend. Truly and Jason have always keep it on the friends side of the relationship for several reasons with one of them being Malone. That is until they crossed that line from friends to more than friends. They decide to keep it simple and just stay friends and not let one night ruin their friendship. That is always easier said than done, feelings are now involved and when it is meant to be, you can’t stop it from happening. Watching them try to navigate around each other and not act on it was fun. The push and pull between Truly and Jason was great. The story was wonderfully written. It was nice catching up with old friends and making new ones. This book was funny, sexy, romantic and so swoon-worthy. You will not be disappointed in picking this up. Now I am off to listen to the audio because I need to hear Jason’s voice. I received an ARC of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is a story that will captivate you, it will draw you in and as always this very talented author will make you feel part of this elite group of family and friends that Instant Gratification is based around. This is the second book in the series and I think it can certainly be read as a stand-alone but I would recommend one clicking Instant Guarantee, you won’t be disappointed. Jason is Malone’s best friend and Truly is Malone’s sister so these two know each other but you know what they say about dating your best friends sister.... Jason has a very unusual job and at times he needs a plus one for his Best Man for hire and Truly seems the perfect choice after all she has been his friend for many years but what happens when friendship turns into more will Jason risk his friendship with Malone or will his feelings for Truly be worth more than friendship..... A wonderful story that’s full of amazing characters with plenty of witty banter this book has it all because let’s not forget the sizzling chemistry Jason and Truly share as well as the camaraderie shared between this group of friends. You will laugh, you will giggle and you will certainly swoon so please get your one click finger working and get this must read for all romantic comedy lovers.

This second book in Blakely's Always Satisfied series was so much fun! I am a huge fan of friends to lovers romance and I just never tire of these touching, witty, sweet and sexy stories. Jason is attracted to his best friend, Malone's twin sister, Truly. They too have alot in common, enjoying each others company when working out, snowboarding, or just hanging out. The sparks fly between them, and they were helpless to stop the one night of passion they gave into. Now they are determined to remain friends and not ruin their close relationship. But that is easier said than done, and they're not as covert with their feelings as they think they are. Their friends and family are so caring, supportive, funny, and patient, waiting for Jason and Truly to figure themselves out. I loved the wedding scenes with all the quirky clients, and also the many hilarious characters Jason and Truly created for themselves. Truly is a master mixologist, and her creative recipes and narratives were a fun addition to the story. This romcom has everything I crave in my stories. It has a fun and heartfelt story, real people who are interesting, and easy to care for, witty banter, loads of sexual tension, and smoking hot passion. I really enjoyed catching up with many of the friends and family in the Blakely world, while meeting new intriguing friends like Josh and Haven who will have their own story coming soon! If you are looking for a heartfelt, fun, and sexy romance you will find instant satisfaction with this book!
