Laid Over

Rate this book
In a very uncharacteristic attempt at a little revenge, a little vindication, Lily splurges on a first-class plane ticket… using her soon-to-be-ex-husband’s credit card. If he insists that she travel to him, when he’s the one who gave up, the one who cheated, then the least he can do is pay for her to fly in comfort.
But Lily soon learns, the bigger seats and ample leg room aren’t the only things that are better beyond that classing curtain. The company’s more than worth every extra cent.
****
Trevor Kinkade always flies first-class… on his private jet. But the one time he finds himself aboard a commercial flight, he also finds Lily.
Not that he had to look very hard; she’s sitting right beside him.
****
They’re nothing alike, from two very different worlds, except for one huge, perhaps serendipitous, similarity — they’re in the same place, where neither have ever been before, at the same time — because of two, perfectly aligned off-chances.
Or, could it be the chance for both of them to find what they’ve always wanted?

**** Originally featured, in part, in Pick Your Pleasure, this is Laid Over- Lily and Trevor’s story- in its entirety, with refurbished scenes, new scenes, and of course… its HEA.****

**** Not your usual S.E. Hall book… hot, fun, and an over-the-top “what if” to sweeten your dreams! Just enjoy!!!****

Unfortunately I was expecting a little more than a 45-minute read -- and that includes the break I took. Definitely fast on the draw -- from the word GO! Insta-love - check. No flight in sight -- but definitely laid!

Witty and funny -- a little too simplified and the "dove" made me want to gag at times. I hated all the little funky pet names. Sometimes I can push myself to break the barriers and join Lalaland -- but not here. Too over-the-top and very little depth or storyline. A big waste on a great book cover.

Really Enjoyed

I really enjoyed this book! I liked both Lily and Trevor a lot. Lily was such a sweetheart and a breath of fresh air and Trevor was a definite mystery. That is why I took off one star because I needed to know more about him. What was his job, why was he against relationships, how old was he? Just general stuff like that. Even though I didn’t have a full picture of him I still loved how he was with Lily, he was captivated and devoted to her from the start. It was very endearing. I also wish the epilogue was longer but that is because I am a sucker for them. This story is completely 100% safe!

We got a glimpse of Lily and Trevor's story in Pick Your Passion and Pick Your Pleasure. Now we get their full story. And it is AMAZING! Can't wait to see what SE Hall has for us readers next, because her writing only gets better no matter how long or in this case short her storys/books are.

So I keep saying I don’t like insta-love, but this is the third book in a row that I’ve read that had insta-love. I’M OBSESSED!!!! I loved every minute of this short story! I devoured it so quickly and I really want to read it again. I loved Lily and how strong and determined she was! And then Trevor really blew me away, I love how he picked up on what kind of woman Lily really was from the beginning. I would LOVE to see more of them!!

A Sweet & Enjoyable Romance! Great Story & Listen🎧

Laid Over
By: S.E. Hall
Narrated by: Diana Lyon, Jack Rider

I enjoyed this fabulously delightful instant love romance novella, the story drew me in right from the start and captivated my attention the entire time. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with. Lily Meyer’s soon to be ex-husband is trying to take everything from her, her day in court is happening tomorrow and she booked a first class fight to get there. But mechanical problems grounds the plane and her plan to get there on time. Frantic to come up with another solution, and she gets help from the gorgeous man who left her speechless when she first laid eyes on him, Trevor Kincade. I adored these two characters, Lily is sweet and there is a goodness about her, Trevor comes off as powerful and there is a mystery about him. Trevor gets her to court on time and he gets all protective, too. This novella sized book packed a whole lot of story and I loved how everything played out, I would have loved even more if the story was longer. It is a beautifully plotted story with the perfect balance of drama, charm, heartfelt emotions and a wonderful romance. S.E. Hall, thank you for this sweet story and emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧 And for the wonderful narration, Diana Lyon and Jack Rider did a fabulous job bringing these characters and their story to life. They do that with a complete understanding of the characters they are portraying, giving each a voice that fit the character’s persona perfectly, sounding believable and just as I pictured the characters to sound.You could hear how much heart they put into their work as they captured the character’s emotions and projected them into their performance. These talented and versatile voice artists are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this great listen.

Laid Over
By: S.E. Hall
Narrated by: Diana Lyon, Jack Rider

On her way to her day in court, Lily finds herself in a tough spot as her flight is delayed. She has to make it on time to try and prevent her soon-to-be ex from taking everything from her. Trevor is sitting next to her. This gorgeous man is taken with her and is going to do what he can to help her out. What Lily gets though is much more than a good settlement. This insta-love quick listen is easy and fun. Trevor is quite the man, coming to her aid and knowing exactly what she needs. He is incredibly patient and his protectiveness is impossible to not love. Lily proves just how resilient she is. I would love to get a full story of these two, but SE Hall definitely packs a lot into this "quickie"!

To tell us this story, we have Diana Lyon and Jack Rider. Both are new to me, and I enjoyed both of their voices. Lyon is wonderful, finds the essence of Lily and brings it full force in her performance. Definitely hurt, and angry with her ex, but the attraction to Trevor is giving her confidence, all heard in the inflections. Rider is our warm, protective Trevor. He swoops in and fills our heart with the nuances he uses in his voice. I enjoyed their narration and will be watching for more from them.

SE Hall packs a significant punch with her novella Laid Over! Having gotten a glimpse of Lily and Trevor in Pick Your Passion and Pick Your Passion, Hall listened to her readers requests for more of Lily and Trevor fulling delivering with Laid Over.

In Laid Over, Hall finally dishes up the steamy romance between Lily and Trevor. One serendipitous meeting on an airplane is all it took for wealthy Trevor Kinkade to become entranced with soon to be divorced Lily. These two are nothing alike, practically living in separate worlds, however their craving need of each other binds them unlike anything they ever expected.

Although this is a short one from Hall, she still manages to deliver everything you've came to know, love and expect from her writing. It's funny, witty, sexy, steamy and over the top realistically to help you be whisked away on this romantic adventure. If you are looking for something fun, whimsical in a way and a new HEA, then make sure you one click this one by SE Hall now.

Short read - lots of flowery language...

Lily Myers boards a plane a little flustered, and when the deep voiced seat mate for the flight turns to talk to her she becomes even more flustered. They talk and soon Trevor Kincade becomes her travel companion, wanting to help the beautiful Lily on her quest to reach her final destination. But Lily is burdened by life and the issues she’s facing and can’t accept that a complete stranger would go out of his way to help her. Trevor can’t find reason why he’s set to help this dove, but he knows she’s pure hearted and he wants more. And when it’s all over he takes her away and shows her what it is to be loved and cherished.

Anyway this was a short read... two people whose worlds collide and they become intertwined on a journey to freedom and new beginnings. This wasn’t what I was expecting 🤷🏽‍♀️

Trevor Kinkade is enamored with Lily the first time he saw her. He thought she was sweet, funny. He never laughed so much with a woman before. Most women pretend to be the perfect person.
This was her first time flying on a plane. she decided to fly first class by using her cheating husband's credit card. Sitting next her her was this handsome hunk of a man.
Lily is sweet, naive, trusting. Mechanical problems with the plane, caused a layover. She needed to get to her destination the next morning.
Trevor wants to know her better, he decides to help her and arranged to drive there.
Diane Lyon and Jack Rider are new narrators for me. They were very good.
I enjoyed listening to this delightful story. It is fun, uplifting, enjoyable.

Laid Over by SE Hall was a great, happy read from beginning to end. Lily has been used and cheated on by her soon to be ex husband. Her final court date to finalize her divorce is the next day. Good thing she bought herself a seat in first class for her flight. Her life changes as she knows it as soon as she meets Trevor.

He is the one thing that can change how her future will be. He does so many nice things for her in the first 24 hours of knowing her, she doesn’t understand why. I thought this book was very well written and the characters were great. I think I’m inlove with Trevor. Every woman should be able to find someone like him to come in and save the day.

Eek! SE Hall has only gone and hit it outta the park again! This is a short almost insta-love read and may not be her usual style but I loved it just as much! This lady has sure proved she can write anything, as if we ever had any doubt! Lily and Trevor had such immense chemistry that was completely palpable through the pages and I loved the banter between them. Trevor has such a way with words! This novella really was perfect for them. It was fun and flirty and I thoroughly enjoyed every second reading it. Perfect if you’re in need of a quickie ;)

Wonderful quick read.

I like this story. It's an Insta lust, alpha man story. Lily is tangled up in her own affairs, that she couldn't walk and chew gum at the same time. Her day has been horrendous, and she hasn't even border the plane yet.
Of course, she grew seated next to a gorgeous guy, and seemingly makes a fool of herself. Icing on the cake if said day. Thankfully, all of that changes because of some mechanical issues with the plane. And thus, the story begins.
The story is so great. You really should read it!

It's been awhile since I've read/listened to a book by S.E. Hall and I'd forgotten how she writes witty banter and puts characters in unique situations. The book is a fun quick read with a very straitlaced heroine about to lose everything in a divorce and a billionaire with an instant attraction to the chaos that is Lily. Trevor offers to take her out of her comfort zone and help her restart after her devastating loss. This novella is filled with sexual tension, humor, and great characters. Definitely recommend to anyone who needs a fast, fun read.

An amazing fun, quick steamy read. Hall never fails to bring me a story that I can't help but get hooked on and this one grabbed me from the start.
We finally get the full story of Trevor and Lily after meeting them in Pick You Passion and Pick You Pleasure, and I loved every second of it!
While it is a quick read Laid Over is fun, witty, and all kinds of steamy. Everything I have come to expect from Hall. Pick this one up now! You will not be sorry!

Quick, fun and steamy! I loved this short read and I can't even begin to tell you how much. I laughed so much and I swooned and I fell just as instantly as the characters. I so want to read more from them. I loved the banter between them and I loved the quick wit of both of them. I can't wait to see what S.E. will come up with next!

This is a short story but it packs an insta-love punch. The chemistry between Lilly and Trevor was undeniable! I loved how strong Lilly was even while going threw such a crappy situation and I loved how Trevor swooped in to be her knight in shining armor. It was perfect!

I generally love anything by this author. However, this was not my favorite of her books. It felt rushed and lacked the normal character development. It still doesn't change that I adore this author.

Short and Sweet

I definitely would have liked more of this story. Trevor and Lilly have a great chemistry and I loved Lilly's sassy banter. It just didn't seem like the whole story was told.

Short and sweet

Short and sweet never were so fully realize! I so wish that after the court hearing there were another hundred pages. Not to fear, our darling author did not leave us hanging. We definitely got closure. It’s just so well done, I wanted more....more of him....

I usually love S.E. Hall’s books but I just couldn’t get into this one as much. It was sexy and had an HEA but the plot and character development just felt off and the story never drew me in. It was a quick read though if you want instant gratification!

Short-ish story about a soon to be divorced woman who needs to make a court date and her flight is delayed. An handsome, wealthy, overly loquacious stranger decides to help her.

This is complete fantasy.
