Thank you to Forever for gifting me a review copy of Satisfaction Guaranteed by Karelia Stetz-Waters.

Well, this book was absolutely delightful. I love a good sunshine vs grump story and the two main characters in this book are infinitely loveable.

Cade Elgin is the consummate professional. She works non-stop and doesn’t have time for relationships or fun. When she inherits a sex toy store, and with it a bubbly, no-filter co-owner, she’s completely thrown for a loop.

Selena Mathis is trying her hardest to make the store, Satisfaction Guaranteed, a success but she’s impulsive and constantly feels like a screw-up. She’s taken an oath of celibacy in a bid to take control of at least one aspect of her life, but her buttoned-up new co-owner is making her feel things that have her wanting to throw that oath out the window.

The two of them have to find a way to work together and save the store (and solve the rest of the inherited finance issues) or Selena is going to be out of a job, and out of a home. Even though Cade is completely out of her element with the sex toy store, and the two of them don’t get off on the best foot, they gradually start to draw out the best in each other and it’s beautiful to watch each of them grow and support each other throughout the book.

If you enjoy authors like Casey McQuiston and Alexis Hall I’d definitely recommend you pick this one up…after all, Satisfaction Guaranteed. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist).

Synopsis:

When it comes to her career, Cade Elgin has it all figured out. Only “professional talk” has become her default mode, relationships are nonexistent, and don't even mention the word “orgasm.” All work and no play makes Cade a dull human. But when she inherits a sex toy store, Cade is caught between business and a store filled with every imaginable kind of pleasure—including her infuriatingly irresponsible and deliciously sexy new co-owner.

Selena Mathis learned the hard way that she can have too much of a good thing. Which is precisely why she's taken an oath of celibacy and is focusing on how to make Satisfaction Guaranteed a success. She won't mess this up. Not this time. But once again, Selena's emotions are getting in the way, and tempting her with a serious attraction to buttoned-up Cade.

But the shop isn't exactly vibe-ing, and Cade and Selena are on the verge of losing both their income and the possibility of love. Can they find a way to work together . . . before Satisfaction Guaranteed runs out of batteries?
