Mistakes Were Made A Novel by Meryl Wilsner

 Book Excerpt:

"From the critically acclaimed author of Something to Talk About comes Meryl Wilsner's Mistakes Were Made, a short and sexy rom-com about a college senior who accidentally hooks up with her best friend's mom.

When Cassie Klein goes to an off-campus bar to escape her school's Family Weekend, she isn't looking for a hookup—it just happens. But, unfortunately, buying a drink for a stranger turns into what should be an uncomplicated, excellent one-night stand. But then the next morning rolls around, and her friend drags her along to meet her mom—the hot, older woman Cassie slept with.

Erin Bennett came to Family Weekend to get closer to her daughter, not have a one-night stand with a college senior. But, in her defense, she hadn't known Cassie was a student when they'd met. To make things worse, Erin's daughter brings Cassie to breakfast the following day. And despite Erin's better judgment—how could sleeping with your daughter's friend be anything but evil?—she and Cassie get along in the day just as well as they did last night.

What should have been a one-time fling quickly proves impossible to ignore, and soon Cassie and Erin are sneaking around. Worst of all, they start to realize they have something real. But is being honest about the love between them worth the cost?"

Review:
"Mistakes Were Made" by Meryl Wilsner

My Assessment:

Wow, what will happen when Cassie, 21, a college senior, hooks up with one of her best friends, Parker's mom, Erin, 38, who just happened to be a doctor, during a family weekend? Will this be something that will continue between Cassie and Erin after these two find out who was who, or will it 'escalates into something more than either of the two had planned?'

Be ready for a very spicy situation that will bring it all together 'sapphic age gap, family, taboo relationship, friendship, sexy scenes, love, happiness, and finally, a HEA.' There will be many points of view in this moving reading and secrets one will have to keep up in this LGBTQ read. And this story will give one plenty of thought long after the read. So, if this is your kind of read, pick up "Makes We Made" and see how this author brings it out to the reader.
