winemakerssister's review against another edition

I think I need to take a break from Lauren Blakely books. They're pretty, delicious froth - just like the top of a fancy cappuccino - with absolutely no substance. Good for the right moment, but not so good back-to-back (or within the same week).
Sadly, I think this book of hers is frothier than most. It seems to have been developed from two different ideas, neither of which was strong enough on its own. 1) heroine who can't achieve orgasms when with a man, 2) 'untouchable' daughter of his boss/business partner. Number 1 has certainly been done before and number 2 is a non-issue. All I kept thinking was, 'you're a grownup. Tell him you want to date his daughter.' Sheesh.
The fun part of the audiobook was listening to Jason Clarke singing! (And a few lines from Andi Arndt.)
Hogwarts Sorting Hat? That's tough when the characters aren't well developed. They're pretty and earnest and perfect... but all Blakely characters are like that. I'm going to put them both in Hufflepuff because they're not particularly brave, smart, or ambitious.
Themes: 2nd chances, Manhattan, veterinarian, animal rescue, family

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! It was fun, swoon worthy, and the characters were so well developed.
This second chance, insta-attraction, the one who got away romantic comedy was just what I’ve come to expect from Lauren Blakely!
Sloane and Malone were perfect for each other! They had intense chemistry and I loved every moment of their push and pull as they tried to deny their feelings for each other.
Rating: 5/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Malone is a vet who met Sloane years ago and immediately hit it off with her. Then he found out that she was the daughter of his business partner and off limits. Fast-forward 7 years, and Malone's business partner has them working in the same office. They can no longer deny their attraction. But once they finally consummate their relationship, Malone learns that Sloane has a secret. Malone is determined to give her satisfaction guaranteed in one week. But the clock is ticking, since Sloane is still off-limits. Too bad that they've fallen for each other...

This was an absolutely fun-filled read with a dash of angst and some major feels. It also made me a wee bit sad because the cover of the book has a cat that looks somewhat like my cat that passed away last week plus there were quite a few cats in the story, so yeah, I was definitely missing my Boom. But Malone and Sloane's story brought a smile to my face, thanks to the lighthearted feel and the wit and banter these two had going along with all that friendly flirting and sexual tension between them. There's a sole source of conflict that's stopping these two from truly being together and it's the same one that stopped them short seven years ago: Sloane's dad, aka Malone's business partner. But that conflict was set aside for the greater good by Dr. Goodman, who was, indeed, a good man (and veterinarian AND singer!) because every girl needs to be satisfied, if you know what I mean. Wink, wink. Satisfaction Guaranteed was a reminder of sorts that plans can change, especially when our priorities do and you don't always necessarily have to sacrifice one thing for another. You can, indeed, have it all. Five stars. ♥

Lauren Blakely never fails to make me laugh out loud and swoon throughout her stories. This one was no different. It was so sweet and tugged at my heart strings and it was so much fun. I enjoyed every minute of reading this story and I can't wait for more from her.

A good little story of workplace romance!
mlamprecht9's review against another edition
Was already on the fence about completing this, weird story line, but MMC declaring that vibrator would "replace us" meaning men someday was ridiculous. MFC not being able to orgasm just during sex and acting like this was the worst fate when other ways works was ridiculous considering that it true for most women

Awwww, another lovely contemporary romance by Lauren Blakely, and of course I'm going to devour the entire series.
I love the audio versions of her books, with such amazing narrators, too.

Audible Escape. DNF @ 15% (1 hour). Yikes. Apparently I'm not a Jason Clarke fan... there's nothing particularly wrong with his narration, his voice just doesn't "work" for me. (I'm not rating this, just notes for myself.)
Cute story, will try to pick up the ebook at some other point.

Lauren Blakely knows how to write the perfect man. Dr. Malone Goodman is practically perfect in every way and I devoured Satisfaction Guaranteed in just one sitting.
Satisfaction Guaranteed is dirty and perfect in the best ways possible. Blakely hit this one out of the ballpark!
Lauren Blakely serves up Satisfaction Guaranteed with her ever present charm and humor.
"It's not a huge deal that you revealed you stalk him. And hey, he keeps tabs on you too. You're just a couple of stalkers."
Between all the schmexy time and adorable animals, since both Malone and Sloane work with animals, you will also love the wit and banter between everyone that comes and goes throughout their daily lives. Lauren Blakely really does deliver it all.
And did I mention how steamy this book is? Hold on to your panties, because you might need to change a few. Whew!!
"I'll get you purring. It's a one hundred percent satisfaction guaranteed promise."
Dr. Goodman and Sloane Elizabeth have aced Chemistry 101, they are absolutely electric.
They find themselves working together after Sloane's father brings her business, an animal rescue, in to work side by side with their already thriving veterinarian business. Malone has thought about Sloane for years, but was told by his business partner at his time of hire that his daughter was off limits. Malone liked his job and therefore stayed away, but the attraction has always been there. Now, it's years later and they are working in close quarters, the sexual tension is palpable and soon neither can stay away.
Seven years of waiting...I'll just say...it's combustible.
