Soft Sounds of Pleasure (Those Devilish De Marco Men Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 out of 5 stars 586 ratings

When Colton De Marco stumbles onto Lila Walker sunbathing in the nude, he can’t turn down the chance to make a decade of fantasies about the older woman come true.
Lila finds her younger mechanic a welcome distraction from her unpaid bills, her faraway son, and her too-close mother-in-law. Lila can handle their friends-with-benefits arrangement, but when Colton pressures her to attend his nephew’s baseball games, she knows the entire town will talk. After all, her husband’s only been dead nine months. What’s a lonely widow to do when Colton won’t take no for an answer?
Give the town something to talk about, of course.

~Erotic romance without the hassle of shaving your legs~

Although widowed after seventeen happy years of marriage, Eden believes that ‘married with babies’ needn’t be the ultimate happily-ever-after, but one among many choices. Her stories reflect this belief.

A graduate of Converse College, Eden chose to write erotica to make good on her threat to embarrass her adult children at least as much as they embarrassed her in their teenage years. She enjoys helping raise her four-year-old granddaughter and applying liquid eyeliner while driving a stick shift is her super power.

    Decided I'd write a quick review for this cavity-inducing sweet love story since there are so few and despite all the times the author made me squirt tears, I still enjoyed it. Be forewarned. You WILL need tissue at multiple points while reading this. If I cried, I'm willing to bet EVERYONE will cry reading this tale. I am SO not a girl when it comes to the mushy stuff, but this one even got to me.

    Starting out, I didn't think I'd care much for Colton & Lila's story. She was kind of annoying and a bit neurotic in Wildly Inappropriate, and he seemed waaaay too whipped for my taste. Still, I enjoyed WI so much I decided to go ahead and give the other 2 a try-plus that .99 price tag on this one ain't bad! SOOO worth even more. And now they make so much more sense as a couple.

    This story was well-written and LOL funny and sweet. You won't be able to NOT fall for Jonah. He just squeezes those heartstrings. Loved Lila also. SPUNNNNNKY. Colton even grew on me. You couldn't help falling for him too. He truly loved Lila. He couldn't help showing it. I was happy for their love.

    Can't forget about all the naughty parts, and there wasn't a shortage of those either. Colton & Lila sizzled off the pages. Even with all that cloying sweetness, the author worked in plenty of hot moments between them. BEWARE there is a LOT of semen-swallowing going on in this story. Like seriously an excessive amount. Made me think Lila had a fetish. Come to think of it, I believe she did. No judgment! But some may be put off.

    Anyway, this one's definitely worth a try. There are typos, as with all 3 books so far, but they aren't too distracting. A really good editor, though, and the first 2 in the series would be 5-star seamless in my book.

    Wildly Inappropriate is still my absolute favorite, hands down, now that I've read all 3 books. I do have a major weakness for D/s. Hopefully Ms. Connor will revisit that subj matter. She does creative kink so very well. ;)

    I Highly recommend Soft Sounds and Wildly Inappropriate

    Happy Reading

    4.5 stars on this one :)
    I happen to really like this author. I also happened to really like this story. I think the only point of contention in this story for me, was Lila seemed like an intelligent woman who was had not hidden in her house over the years she had been with her husband. Surely she understood the ways of the world. She was not blind to what was in front of her with Colton. She was intuitive in everything. I just felt like her obtuse reaction to their relationship was a little too much. I guess though, sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees. Once I got past that, I loved the story line and Colton was just amazing!!!
    I really just started reading Eden's books with her recent Cuda Confession's series so I am working backwards. I can't say enough good things about her writing.

    This is one smoking hott book! Eden Connor knows how to write the most amazing and varied sex scenes. The attraction between Colton and Lila is so thick it could be cut with a knife, but why would you want to? In spite of this, both of them have doubts about any long term possibilities for their relationship. Lila worries that her OLD age of 41 (sarcasm here) will eventually be a turn off for Colton who she thinks will want to move on to someone younger he can start a family with. Colton worries that Lila is out of his league and is only playing with him since he's a blue collar auto mechanic, but will eventually move on to someone more deserving of her. Throw in a 13 year old tweenager who recently lost his mother and is fully into bad attitude mode. Throw in some supporting and not-so-supporting brothers. Stir it up and you have alot of lust turning into love, alot of small-town heads turning and talking, and a few twists that keep it interesting.
    But this book also has a very serious side, dealing with grief and integrity and child rearing and struggling to get by. It not jut all fun and games.
    On a side note for me personally, I am a HUGE baseball fan, as is Lila. Colton, not so much and really doesn't understand the game beyond the basics. I completely loved the baseball scenes - laughing hysterically as Lila schooled the team over the objections of the incompetent coach while Colton sat there clueless. There was also a really awesome dream sequence toward the end of the book that was also tied in with baseball imagery that totally blew me away.
    But there is enough great stuff in this book that you don't need to be a baseball fan to enjoy. It had every component that I could have asked for, and then some. The following books in this series relay the stories of Colton's mechanic brothers. They are pretty cool guys and I will definitely be reading those too.

    Eden Connor has another home run! Loved this book and can't wait to read the following sagas of the De Marco men!
    29 year old Colton has had a thing for Lila Walker for !any years but she was more than a decade older and even worse, married!

    Then he finds her sunbathing nude on her private back deck and the knowledge that her invalid husband may be in the house goes out the window when he is caught watching her. Lila makes it clear she wants Colton and the two get busy on that deck! But this is aren't as Colton thought and life is about to change for everyone involved. This roller coaster ride was fun, entertaining and heart wrenching. Dealing with so many emotions from all of the characters was so engagingly wonderful. Eden didn't miss a detail. You feel like you've known those coaches, those brothers, those in-laws, this nosy neighbors.
    Perfect read any day of the month! And no cliff hangers, but I can't wait for more of the De Marco men's stories.

    I flove Eden Connor's characters. They are real, and down to earth. This story is no exception. Colton and his brothers own a garage and he's had a crush on Lila for as long as he can remember. Lila is finally free and Colton gets to make his move. Love the story, and I love the lessons from the book.
