Guilty Pleasure: A Small-Town Second Chance Romance (Redemption Book 4) Kindle Edition
Redemption, Tennessee held nothing but painful memories that Lark Ashton had no desire to rehash. After the only man she’s ever loved crush her soul and spirit, and all her friends turned their backs on her, she swore to herself she’d never go back. But when her aunt calls, asking a favor she can’t possibly refuse, Lark finds herself public enemy number one . . . again.
Clay Morrison has spent seven years trying to convince himself he’s no longer in love with Lark Ashton. But when the woman he thinks betrayed him and his family returns, she brings with her a whole slew of feelings he’s worked hard to ignore. Now he can’t get the bane of his existence out of his head.
She’s in desperate need of a job. He can’t resist the chance to have her at his mercy.
And they’re both about to discover what happens when the most intense passion they've ever felt is with a person they hate.

About the author

Born and raised around Houston, Jessica is a self proclaimed caffeine addict, connoisseur of inexpensive wine, and the worst driver in the state of Texas. In addition to being all of these things, she’s first and foremost a wife and mom.
Growing up, she shared her mom and grandmother’s love of reading. But where they leaned toward murder mysteries, Jessica was obsessed with all things romance.
When she’s not nose deep in her next manuscript, or binging on sit-coms, you can usually find her with her kindle in hand.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2025I’ve been reading this series and I believe this one might be my favorite! Looking forward to seeing this great group of characters get their HEA’s! A fun and engaging read!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2021"I'm sure even Einstein did some pretty stupid (word redacted) when it came to matters of the heart."
GUILTY PLEASURE is book 4 in the "Redemption" series and it can absolutely be read as a stand-alone. While there are mentions of previous Redemption residents we've read about, their involvement in this story is minimal.
It pains me to say what I am about to say... I did not like the male protagonist in this story. Clay is a self serving, son of a gun who is selfish and vindictive and the female protagonist deserves better. Lark is surrounded by people who just walk all over her, treat her like she means nothing and (whoops, almost gave a bit away).
As with all of this author's books, the theme flows well through the story. There are some fantastic new characters introduced. The story is visually written and I was glad to read it.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2021I liked it but I’m sorry to say that half this book should have been filled with groveling. And I’m not just talking about Clay. The whole darn town turned on the poor innocent heroine. Lark was a great character but a bit on the doormat side. Clay…. What a wimpy mamas boy. I still don’t understand how a man who claims Lark is his soul mate can turn on her at the drop of a hat and believe some guy he hardly knows over her. Say it was his best friend…. Ok I could possibly see how MAYBE you would believe him but this Ronny guy was nobody to him. He just ended it. Sounded more like ole Clay just wanted to sow some wild oats with his ex (which by the way was his “soul mates” arch nemesis 🤮). I think I would have respected him much more if he had stood up to his mom and said he believed Lark, but that didn’t happen. Wasn’t until almost the very end that the whole truth came out. I was just over by that point. Good story but like I said….. where the heck was the grovel?!!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2021What do you say when each story you read in a series is great making the series simply awesome. So again this another awesome read I don't know who touched me more Shane and Jensen in "Bitter Sweet" or Clay and Lark , all of these characters and their story in this series are so very well written you feel that you are a part of their lives 😊 pulls you in from beginning to end and always leave you wanting more. And now I can't wait for Stone and Willow story please don't make us wait to long, oh! oh! and now you have to give us more of that hunk of a stud Pope 😇😇 and Aurora wouldn't that be a awesome read to strong alphas whew !! smokin hot😋😋! Anyway Author Well Done !!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2023The feels were real in this one, and I wasn't really prepared for them. I figured it would be angsty, but I think I have decided that I'm never really ready for angst, it just isn't' my thing. That's not to say this wasn't a good book, it was. And the narration of the audiobook only made it that much better. But I didn't love it as much as I have with previous books by this author. I really appreciate that karma stepped up to those who need to get smacked in face by her, as that doesn't always happen. The book as a whole was good enough that I'd keep reading the series.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2023I read this story through without cheating on it with another book. And I am a serial cheater. So that alone is pretty solid evidence that enjoyed it.
What I liked: good writing, good characters, an interesting story line, getting worked up over how the heroine was being treated…I am always a sucker for a mistreated, innocent heroine.
What I didn’t like: while we did get Justice, I really wanted more. Really sucked that most of the town were such jerks and she forgives them so easily in the end. Also, how is she suddenly moving out and leaving her Aunt alone? Did I miss something? Did she leave her aunt with the junk car?
- Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2024I enjoyed this book, and the author writes really well (she’s a favorite of mine), in my opinion, but I was disappointed that Rina’s behavior was just chalked up to being spoiled. Normally, when a person, no matter the age, has such a dramatic shift in personality, it indicates that something happened to that person. Yet not one person in the entire town thought it odd that the shy, nerdy bookworm (romance at that) all of a sudden started dressing skimpy, being wild, and sleeping with everyone? My first thought was, “something bad happened to that girl” (like rape or molestation). The whole time I was expecting the author to address it later in the story, yet, by the end, the reason was that she was just spoiled as a child. Seriously? Had her personality been more “compatible” with her change, or the change more “compatible” with her personality, then that reason might work. There are always those people who no one can really pinpoint where things went so wrong for them, but in this particular instance it’s weak. I’m not even going to address the fact that everyone believed Ronny Culpepper over Lark, except to say that was also a frustrating head scratcher.

5.0 out of 5 stars True love never dies.
In life and love things happen.
Lark and Clays story is one of resilience and love concurring all.
Their story makes me think soul mates do exist, great read, could not put it down.
- LBradReviewed in the United Kingdom on March 24, 2022
5.0 out of 5 stars fantastic
Another fab instalment in this series, although if I am being honest I would have liked to see Clay suffer a little more 😜 Clay and Lark were a great couple to read about. Loved the introduction of Aurora and Callum, and I can’t wait for their story, feels like it could be explosive 😂
Wish I lived in a town with as many hot guys as Redemption, Tennessee, I’d sit and people watch all day, and make all the leading ladies of this series my besties 😉
- jessieReviewed in Canada on May 9, 2021
4.0 out of 5 stars Not my thing.
It was a good story. Really well written. You can really feel the emotions. I personally couldn’t get over how abusive everything I was and how easily h forgave everybody. Like I respect just wanting to move on but seriously the town treated her like dirt and then to just forgive and forget immediately is just too much. For me at least. It’s still a good book and for the people that enjoy this kind for thing it’s good, so I didn’t wanna give it a bad review.
- Kerry PReviewed in Australia on July 2, 2023
4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome small town read
This was a surprise find! I have read other Jessica Prince books and she does tend to repeat alot of the dialogue and plots in them, however this book was thoroughly enjoyable. I loved the plot and the chemistry between Clay and Lark is crazy!
- Michelle DuncanReviewed in Canada on April 16, 2022
5.0 out of 5 stars so hot!
Yes!! This story was everything! It had some serious raw emotion, sexual tension, and spicy love scenes after a delicious slow burn that had me twitching for them to get together.
At times I wanted to jump through my screen and slap sense into the main characters. I love when an author can take me through so many thoughts and emotions on their characters and they story.
I loved all series favorites showing up and for the things to come for other characters in the Redemption series.
