Misadventures is a romantic series of spicy standalone novels, each written or co-written by some of the best names in romance. The stories are scandalous, refreshing, and, of course, incredibly sexy. They''re the perfect bedside read, a ''quick blush'' for the reader who loves a page-turning romance. Misadventures with a Professor Zandy Lynch never planned on going to grad school a virgin. So when her professor father finds her a job abroad as a research assistant the summer before she starts her master''s program, she sees her chance. She''s got one night in London to lose her V-card to a Mr. Darcy lookalike before she has to join some ancient professor in the country. Oliver Graeme is not looking forward to having some American co-ed hovering around while he''s trying to work, but he owes her father the favor, and besides, his office is an untidy mess of uncatalogued research. He needs the help. Still, he decides to take the edge off his frustration while visiting a colleague in London, and winds up having the sexiest, sweetest night of his life with a stranger, who vanishes in the morning without a trace... To Zandy''s shock when she arrives at Professor Graeme''s house a day later, the door isn''t opened by a fussy old scholar, but by the wild, passionate man she met in London. Cold and reserved by day, Oliver is ferociously greedy with her at night, and it''s not long before Zandy finds herself falling for both versions of him--the aloof professor and the generous, rough lover. The trouble is that summer only lasts so long, and Zandy already has a plane ticket waiting to take her home... Misadventures of a Curvy Girl For the first time in her life, Ireland Mills is happy with her body. No more fad diets, no more hiding from every camera in the room, no more low self-esteem. She''d rather be alone than with someone who''ll only love her if she''s skinny. Caleb Carpenter and Ben Weber are everything Ireland and the Kansas Chamber of Commerce dreamed of when conceptualizing the "Real Kansas" promotional campaign. They''re handsome, young, educated, and totally dedicated to their small prairie town. When Ireland''s Prius gets stuck on a Kansas dirt road and a massive storm rips through town, she''s left stranded with nowhere to turn but to Caleb and Ben. These two hunky country boys are impossible to ignore, but could they ever be interested in her as well? Caleb and Ben are more than interested...and they''re willing to share. After their first night together, they know this has to be more than a one-time thing. They need to make her theirs forever. But can they convince Ireland they love her, curves and all? Misadventures in Blue Senior Detective Cat Day has one hard and fast rule about dating: no cops. They live hard and die young--a truth she''s faced every day since her fiancé''s tragic death several years ago. But when rookie Jace Sutton shows up to work the same burglary investigation, she feels desire she hasn''t felt in years. Jace knows what he wants the minute Detective Day strolls onto his crime scene in heels and a pencil skirt tailored by God himself. He wants to thaw the legendary Ice Queen, and it only takes one hot, dirty night for Jace to realize he wants more. Much, much more. But more is the last thing Cat wants from any cop--especially a playboy rookie like Jace. As the burglary investigation heats up and he repeatedly puts himself in danger, Cat must ask herself if Jace will be as reckless with her heart as he is with his life… (mehr)

Okay so this was a collection of three standalone romance novels. And I don’t know the best way to review honestly. I decided that the easiest way for my brain was to do a small review of each individual story. I want to start by saying that sometimes I struggle with romance novels because of the insta-love/lust angle. However, if the story is good enough I am generally willing to set this aside. Overall, minus some obvious romance trope issues that drive me mad this collection was really good! I think they make for fun quick reads when you need a break!
Misadventures with a Professor for me I wasn’t able to set aside my dislike on this story because it was just so stereotypical: the virgin… the experienced dude who doesn’t know she’s a virgin but has a hidden kink. The fact that they both had terrible self esteem issues and struggled to communicate with each other for most of the story was a huge problem for me. I found myself struggling to set aside my ick for this one because the professor/student kink wasn’t even sexy; probably because he constantly referred to her as girl… Anyway. I think the story did a good job of building tension between the two of them and it had some spicy scenes… it didn’t have any banter and hardly any build up to the spicy moments. So much of the story became predicable tropes that I just cannot tolerate and it made me sad.
Misadventures with a Curvy Girl I was really excited for this one! It’s a MMF poly relationship and I couldn’t wait to see how it played out. I enjoyed Ireland, she was spunky and real, even if she was incredibly insecure about her weight. I think the three of them worked well together and it made for a nice dynamic. This story is definitely spicier than the first. My only regret with this one was that it was super long. I mean I felt like it could have wrapped itself up a few times pretty quickly and easily. I also would have enjoyed more banter and communication between all of the characters. I have to say though this one was a cute story which touched on some real and tough topics.
Misadventures in Blue I have to say this one was probably my favorite of the entire book. I loved that we switched it up and made it an older woman age gap! This one is definitely pretty spicy but one of the best things about this story is it had so much more going on than just the romance. We had characters dealing with their PTSD and we had an actual case that they were working to solve. I will admit that it follows some predictable patterns for romance stories. However I enjoyed the characters and the dynamic between both Jace and Cat. ( )
