Product Information

sometime this month.” “Sounds good. I’m really happy for you, Claire.” “Thanks.” My stomach fluttered. “I’m happy, too.” Sometimes being with someone from your past is like going home again. No matter how long it's been, you don't forget the way.” Man Candy was a bit of a different story. It is usually the woman in the story who knows how she feels and the man who is unwilling, reluctant, or afraid to commit. In this case, Jaime is the one who is not willing to believe in love and commitment. Quinn, on the other hand, is pretty sure that she is the one for him…he just needs to talk her into it.

I DID HAVE CHOCOLATE SYRUP. But Theo got even more excited about the tube of crescent rolls I had in the fridge. “Oh my God, I have the biggest craving YOU LOVE LISTS? Wow, we have a lot in common! Other than the fact that you are much younger and better looking and speak seven languages, I'd say we were separated at birth.. The story is over and I’m still swooning. Man Candy is sugar and spice. A bonbon of book bliss. The best guilty pleasure, Man Candy is an entertaining and enthralling escape that embedded me deeply into this book. This tale is as tender and touching as it is sexy and sassy. A sweet, sexy, and seductive story that stole my panties along with my heart, Man Candy is a must-read masterpiece of pure pleasure and is Melanie Harlow’s most sensational story yet. I fell in love with my Man Candy and want to devour it just a bit longer as the taste is simply delicious. Man Candy could’ve easily been a mediocre read for me but thankfully Melanie Harlow excels at this type of story. The funny, the hot and the feels are all woven together in a way you just can’t help but be entertained by. Jaime and her constant need to keep Quinn at a distance emotionally should’ve rubbed me the wrong way almost immediately. Instead, her character’s written in such a way that you get why she does what she does and I found myself rooting for her to figure things out once she realized her feelings for Quinn ran deeper than a hot hookup.I BROUGHT up a hand towel I’d found in the hall closet downstairs and wet with warm water. “Don’t move,” I told her. She stayed on her stomach, her arms folded beneath her chin, while I gently cleaned her up. “Thank you.” It was insane that she was thanking me. “Believe me, it’s my pleasure.” When I was finished, I kissed her shoulder. “There. All clean.” She smiled at me over one shoulder. “For now, anyway. Here, give me that.” Sitting up, she took the wet towel from me. “I’ll put it in the laundry.” Going over to her closet, she slipped into a fluffy floor-length white robe with her initials embroidered on the chest. I laughed as I tugged on my jeans. “That thing is huge.” “I know, I love it. It’s like being inside a cloud.” She snuggled inside it. “It was a gift from my friend Margot.” “The one who lives on the farm?” She’d told me about her two closest girlfriends last night. I’d never had friendships like that. I was close to Aaron, but that was different—our bond was in blood, and we’d been born to it. The bond between friends was different. You chose each other. “Yes. And the one getting married in February.”

I actually cried. I can't tell you when because it will spoil the story but to feel the pain in their voices, it gave me goose bumps and brought tears to my eyes. Breathtaking!!! I wanted him to have me in a way no one else ever had. I wanted to share myself in a way I never had.” weeks, spending almost every night together at my house. He was there when I received the notice in the mail that I’d been accepted at the July art fair, and didn’t even tease me about how much I cried with relief and joy. He just held me and said over and over again how proud he was. How this was only the beginning. I believed him. Most importantly, I LOVED that it was the female who pushed for a FWB arrangement because she doesn't believe in love or happy ever afters. This whole book was like a giant role reversal from the norm in romances and I loved it even more because of that. There's even a scene where she demands that Quinn "finish" upon command during an intimate moment. It was very brief but I couldn't help but raise a fist in the air and think, "It's about damn time!" I related SO much to Jaime. I hate to cuddle too!!!

ARE YOU A HARLOT YET? To stay up to date on all things Harlow, get exclusive access to ARCs and giveaways, and be part of a fun, positive, sexy and drama-free zone, become a Harlot! And Alex Owens! He is an amazing brother. He wasn't as present in the story as Jaime and Quinn were, but when he was, he gave sage advice to his little sister. Had I not made it clear that I don’t want a boyfriend, but I do want sex? What kind of guy turns down an offer like that?” Man Candy was fresh, sexy, sweet, raw and deliciously addicting. Melanie Harlow has redefined the best friend’s little sister romance trope as she put in her fun twist as she made the heroine, Jaime a non-believer in love. Usually in most books, it is the other way around but Ms. Harlow allowed readers to see and feel the raw emotional pull of a young 17 year old girl who believed in love to now a 27 year old girl who doesn’t believe in happily ever afters and soul mates.

Jaime has her life all worked out... she does not need this hot model/ old crush/family friend living below in her world. She does marketing and knows all the ways branding and manipulation play in sales and this love fantasy everyone believes in. She has learned all her lessons and has enacted her special rules for hookups/dating. She lays it all out with each fella and if they seem to become attached to her, she cuts them loose before they can do it to her.

I love Quinn! He is an amazing book boyfriend—sweet, thoughtful, funny, good looking, and amazing in bed. He's loyal to his family and everyone he cares about. He never pushes Jaime, and he understands her enough to know what she needs. He knows when to be in charge and knows when to give way. I love this man. Jaime is a strong, independent woman who tends to keep men at arm's length to protect herself. Having experienced heartache and betrayal herself, she learned not to believe in love. Her parents' relationship wasn't one to be admired, too. I’d also like to give a shout out to Ms. Harlow for giving us Jaime’s brother and his fiancé. It was refreshing to read about a gay couple in a way that didn’t turn them into silly caricatures. I loved Quinn even more once I saw his love and support for his bestie. Let’s talk about Quinn for a minute. Charming, sarcastic and hot as f**k Quinn! Yes, the sexytimes between Quinn and Jaime were scorching, but what endeared me to his character above all else was his ability to read Jaime and give her what she needed while at the same time pushing her to accept more from him, relationship rules be damned. His pushing and her refusing to budge provided the levity the story needed.
