Here’s what you need to know about me — I’m well-off, well-hung and quick with a joke. Women like a guy who makes them laugh—and I don’t mean at the size of his d*ck. No, they want their funny with a side of huge… not to mention loyal. I’ve got all that plus a big bank account, thanks to my booming construction business. Yup. I know how to use all my tools.
Enter Natalie. Hot, sexy, smart, and my new assistant. Which makes her totally off limits... Hey, I’m a good guy. Really. I do my best to stay far away from the kind of temptation she brings to work.
Until one night in Vegas… Yeah, you’ve heard this one before. Bad news on the business front, drowning our sorrows in a few too many Harvey Wallbangers, and then I’m banging her. In my hotel room. In her hotel room. Behind the Titanic slot machine at the Flamingo (don’t ask). And before I can make her say “Oh God right there YES!” one more time, we’re both saying yes—the big yes—at a roadside chapel in front of a guy in press-on sideburns and a shiny gold leisure suit.
But it turns out what happened in Vegas didn’t stay in Vegas. And now, my dick doesn’t stay in my pants when she’s around. I try to resist. Honest. But the more we try to keep our hands to ourselves, the more we end up naked again, and the more time I want to spend with her fully clothed, too.
The question now is…do I take this woman to be my ex-wife?

Book Review: 4 stars
This is a spinoff of BIG ROCK & MISTER O, but it can also be read as a standalone. Of course, I would recommend you read the other two books first to get the full effect. *wink*
WELL HUNG revolves around Wyatt Hammer (Nick’s twin, from MISTER O) and Natalie Rhodes (Charlotte’s sister, from BIG ROCK). We got a glimpse of these two possibly being an item back in MISTER O. Lauren Blakely does a great job of dropping breadcrumbs of potential relationships for her follow up books. She makes you WANT to read about what will happen between those two characters. And she did just that with Wyatt and Nat.
For me, this was WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS meets CINDERELLA. Wyatt and Natalie “Nat” are employer and employee…you see where I’m taking this? Yes, the forbidden, off-limits, “no fraternization with my employee” kind of story. BUT…Lauren makes their story fun and entertaining! No surprise there…this is ROM COM after all. So Natalie works as Wyatt’s assistant for his construction business: WH Carpentry & Construction. She is the glue that holds his company together. Before her, he was a “sinking ship”…so to speak. His organizational skills were nonexistent and thanks to her, he is getting to jobs on time, scheduling new jobs, finishing jobs on time and most importantly, making a positive name for himself. “Now, half a year together, I can’t imagine WH Carpentry & Construction without her running the business side of the things. Her savvy frees me up to focus on what I’m good at—building, making, working.” –Wyatt. And to top it all off, she is hot as sin! But there’s no way he can go there. “Natalie Rhodes, temptation made flesh, the All-American black belt with a tongue of iron fire.” – Wyatt. One of his top rules is: DO NOT MIX BUSINESS AND PLEASURE. Speaking from past experience, he just doesn’t go there…anymore. “Last time I canoodled with someone I worked with my business could have tanked. That experience taught me a lesson I should have learned a long time ago—don’t mix business and pleasure.” –Wyatt. But when a job falls through and you’re in the city of sin with your sexy and fun assistant, what else are you going to do, but live it up, right?
She takes it and we shake. “Full Vegas experience.”
“One night. We’re going to fit it all in.”
“We’ll go all out.” She sweeps her arm grandly.
“Throw caution to the wind,” she says with a full mega-watt smile.
They do just that! But there’s one kink (and no I don’t mean that kind of kink…well maybe a little bit)…they go from boss and assistant to husband and wife. *EEK* Now, the real fun begins. After lusting over each other for half a year, in the one night they throw caution to the wind, they wind up hitched! In the hast to get their marriage annulled and to set things back the way they were, you guessed it, things do not go as planned….paperwork doesn’t get filed, they can’t keep their hands off of each other, old worries begin to surface, and so on and so on. “What was supposed to be fun and daring has turned into a helluva knot to untangle.” –Wyatt. Now Wyatt and Nat have to figure out a way successfully annul their “marriage” without jeopardize everything. “I want to keep working with her, and I want to be with her, and I want to erase our Vegas mistake and just move forward like a normal man and woman dating in Manhattan would do. But whenever we take a step, we meet a roadblock.” –Wyatt. Will Nat and Wyatt be able to untangle this mess they got themselves into? Or will this end terribly? Apparently, what happens in Vegas, doesn’t always stay in Vegas.
I thoroughly enjoyed Wyatt and Nat’s story. Lauren Blakely once again made a swoon-worthy lead male character and a kick-a** lead female. The story was realistic and well-paced. The playful banter between these two was comical and kept me chuckling throughout the whole book. I would recommend you “take a ride” and give this book a try. You’ll understand what I mean when you read it *wink*.
*Told from Wyatt’s POV and every once in a while we get Natalie’s text conversations from her POV.
