About this ebook
“The endearing, often erotic story of two men finding love later in life will fill readers’ hearts.” —Publishers Weekly
Two single dads meet at the office, where it’s hate at first sight in this new series from acclaimed author Jayce Ellis.
Sending his daughter off to college is the proudest day of single dad JaQuan Reynolds’s life. Everything took a back seat to raising her—including his career. He has no idea what comes next, but his newfound freedom is quickly curtailed by a crash deadline at work and the uptight, hovering presence of consultant Matthew Donaldson. He’s surly and insufferably sexy, and Jaq’s ready to check him out and write him off—right up until a work assignment forces them together.
Every day. From now until Thanksgiving.
Work and fatherhood have been Matt’s whole world for years now, ever since his marriage ended. His eldest son is getting hitched over Thanksgiving weekend, and he’s not going to let a work deadline get in the way of celebrating with his family—not this time. The hours aren’t a problem, but the executive assistant on the project might be. Jaq’s sexy voice makes Matt yearn for things he let go of a long time ago.
Lust isn’t on the schedule, and neither is longing. But as the weeks go by, Matt and Jaq are forced to reevaluate their plans…and discover that even the most tight-knit of families can make room for one more.

I really enjoyed this one. Learned Behaviors is the third book I've read by Jayce Ellis and I'm really enjoying her writing. As an over 60, white female, I am sometimes challenged by the vernacular used in her books but I like that and think it's a good thing. I like that this story is about two older single fathers; there aren't enough romances featuring middle-aged and older couples. I loved the chemistry between Jaq and Matt, it sizzled! Dealing with their attraction for each other, and the potential complications it creates with each of their families and jobs, kept the story interesting and engaging. The secondary characters that Jaq made friends with were great and I hope we'll be seeing more of them in future books in this series. A review copy was provided by the publisher via NetGalley but this did not influence my opinion or rating of the book.
