I WANT IT THAT WAY on Goodreads
About I WANT IT THAT WAY:
Nadia Conrad has big dreams, and she’s determined to make them come true. But between maintaining her college scholarship and working at the local day care to support herself, dating’s the last thing on her mind. Then she moves into a new apartment and meets the taciturn yet irresistible guy in 1B….
Daniel Tyler has grown up too fast. Becoming a single dad at twenty turned his life upside down—and brought him heartache he can’t risk again. Now, as he raises his four-year-old son while balancing a full-time construction management job and night classes, the last thing he wants is noisy students living in the apartment upstairs. But one night, Nadia’s and Ty’s paths cross, and soon they can’t stay away from each other.
The timing is all wrong—but love happens when it happens. And you can’t know what you truly need until you stand to lose it.
"A tender, sweet, and sexy story about how life—and falling in love—can never be planned."
—Jennifer L. Armentrout, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wait for You

Excerpt:
“I think you might entertain me for a while,” I said, trying
for a flirty look.
The relief in his gaze told me I’d struck the right note. Yeah, your good friend Nadia just wants to
objectify you sexually. No scary emotions here. If he knew how I really felt, he’d probably break the
world speed record running away.
“Likewise.”
“I hate to make you feel used, but I should probably get
home. It’s late.”
He hugged me hard before helping me to my feet. “It’s a
tough life, but I’ll think of you while I’m shame-weeping. Where are your
clothes?”
“Bathroom.”
Ty fetched them quietly, and I shivered as I wriggled into
still-damp jeans. He made it really hard to finish getting dressed because he
kept trying to peek inside the shirt I was wearing, his shirt, and it was both
frustrating and sexy as hell. By the time I got my jacket and boots on, I was
ready to fool around some more. So I rose up on tiptoes, gave him a scorching
kiss and let myself out of his apartment to the gratifying sound of Ty cursing.
I probably radiated the just
fucked vibe, so thank God Max was the only person home, and he barely
glanced at me. Angus and Lauren would’ve given me the third degree, and I’d bet
Max would’ve paid more attention, had Lauren come home looking the same way. In
the bedroom, I confirmed it. Yep, sex
hair, swollen lips, wow, he marked my neck behind my ear.
A little shiver went through me.
I took a shower, imagining how it would be with Ty, all wet,
steamy nakedness, and then sex afterward in a warm bed. For us, those moments
were likely to be few and far between. As I stepped out of the tub, I realized
they’d be confined to the end of the month. Otherwise, any time we snatched
would feel sneaky and furtive. And maybe that would be hot under some
conditions, but trying not to get caught by a four-year-old was not one of
those scenarios. Plus, my turn-on was watching, not getting caught in the act.
I wrapped a towel around me and opened the bathroom door in
time to hear my phone buzzing away. Digging it out of my purse, I already had a
message from Ty. A pic, too. My
breath caught as I opened it. He wasn’t pervy enough to send me a close-up of
his junk, but I got one of his soapy chest, droplets of water on the phone when
he took it. Hot as hell. He must’ve taken
this in the shower.
