From USA Today best-selling author Vanessa Vale, a small-town billionaire romance with a hot-as-puck hockey hero and a wannabe romance writer.I’m looking for Mr. Right. Date after blind date, they’re all duds. None of them meet the requirements on my Man List.
Until Dex James.
My brain? It says he’s all kinds of wrong.
He’s young. In town on vacation. A lazy billionaire.
He’d only be a fling. A muse for the spicy book I’m writing. Nothing more.
My body? It’s telling me to jump that big piece of man candy. Check off guy-given O’s from the list with Mr. Right Now.
Which is right? Maybe neither. Maybe my heart has to decide because it turns out Dex is so much more than I ever imagined. Maybe Mr. Right Now could be Mr. Right after all.

Find out who wins in this steamy small town, reverse age gap game of love. With all the books in the On A Manhunt series, it’s open season on men.

Title: Loved this one!
Review: 📚𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐄𝐖📚Man Candyby: Vanessa Vale4⭐️The Man Hunt series is an absolute pleasure, you guys. I am loving reading through these books. They are quick, funny, witty, SPIIICY, and heartwarming!It was major love at first sight when Dex first met Lindy. Their chemistry was so yummy. Lindy gave me the same vibe as Winter from Reckless- she just needed someone to loosen her up a bit. And Dex was just the man for the job.I absolutely loved Dex. He wanted Lindy so much and did whatever he could to show her. And when it came time to it, he tried to give her happiness even if it didn’t include him. 😭 He was such a sweet (and dirty) hero. I was so happy to see Dex and Lindy’s family convince her that it was HER time to be happy.—𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝:🏒hidden identity🛏️only one bed👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏻reverse age gap🧔🏻possessive hero❤️“you’re mine”📱spicy facetime🌃drunken Vegas wedding✨𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 2 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘣𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘦!✨

Title: Full of passion, sweetness, acceptance and love
Review: I loved Dex and Lindy’s age gap, opposites attract, instalove romance. This is a heartwarming, funny and steamy romance full of relatable characters with mild angst. Lindy is an accountant by day and a secret romance novelist at night. Dex is a professional hockey player. Dex’s brother is dating Lindy’s sister. Dex knew Lindy was the one from the moment he met her but Lindy’s reasons for not dating Dex are never ending. The book starts with a wake up married in Vegas scene and then rolls us back to how Dex and Lindy got there. Knowing the end did not diminish the laughs, swoons, or joy in the journey which involves all the swoony swoons while also pulling at your heartstrings with all the emotions. I just loved the way Dex gently, lovingly, and beautifully helped Lindy come out of her self-imposed straight laced prison and begin to embrace a full life and all sides of herself. The story will give you all the feels - laughing, crying, swooning, cringing, teeth gritting, and cheering through sweet moments, steamy scenes, chuckles, supportive friends and family, painful pasts, and heart squeezing love. I am excited to read more of this series and the James’ brothers.

Title: Love This Story!
Review: If you're looking for a romance book that's sure to give you all the feels and make you laugh, then look no further, On A Manhunt series by Vanessa Vale. It introduces us to Dex James, aka "Man Candy," and his love interest Lindy Beckett, who is 35 years old.From the get-go, you can feel how drawn Dex is to Lindy, although he keeps his profession a secret to let her get to know him on a deeper level. He goes out of his way to show her how special she is without having any preconceived notions about him based on his profession. This makes for an interesting developing relationship, filled with plenty of all kinds of emotions - it certainly won't leave you bored!Lindy starts her story off with a "Perfect Man List" but eventually comes around and discovers that Dex is the one she has been waiting for all along. The chemistry between them is explosive and, if I'm honest, will make you desperate for your own Dexter James! Get ready to swoon as they take their time getting to know each other while giving readers stunning scenes.Do not hesitate to pick up this beautiful story that boasts five stars by yours truly - surely it'll stay with you after turning the last page!

Title: Still a guilty pleasure, but there were a lot of plot holes…
Review: The first book in this series was all insta-love goodness. And the second book delivered a lot of the same - except it was a little all over the place.📕 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸 𝗜𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Man Candy by Vanessa Vale📙 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀: On a Manhunt, a character series. Book 2.📗 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀: E-book on Kindle. Free on KU.📘 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗿𝗲: Contemporary romance📔 𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀: Billionaire, sports romance (hockey), opposites attract, reverse age gap.📖 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Dex took one look at Lindy and knew he was going to marry her. But she’s got her guard up, and their lives are very different. Regardless, he’s dead set on showing her he’s more than just Mr. Right Now.🌟 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄: Picking up these books is like actually buying the People magazine you lead through on the stands. It’s a guilty pleasure for sure… and you’re not taking it too seriously.Dex and Lindy were still super cute. I love insta-love, and Dex had a wedding ring picked out before their first kiss. It was so very swoony.But it was a bit all over the place. The story had some details that kept fluctuating - time apart, dates, that kind of stuff - and the hockey stuff felt forced. The conflict was also a little lame.But I’m still moving thru the series. It’s been a fun little ride and some light reads to get me out of a funk𝗥𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴: 3.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹: 3/5 🌶🌶🌶🆓️ on KU

Review: Two starts for the reverse age gap (we need more of that!) and fleshed out characters with different personalities. Sadly, the instalove didn’t work for me. It all happens too fast, like they get marry in two weeks? It was annoying and repetitive, esp since the first book was also instalove. It could also do with more editing.

Review: So steamy and dreamy. Fun premise. I liked the role reversal, older woman gets younger man. I enjoy your writing. Keep it up.

Review: Fantastic read and dex was a dream of a character. The age thing wasn’t relevant to me as he was a very mature character whilst at times Lindy acted younger. Anyway story is interlinked with each brother and I loved the strength and feels of family. Loved the catchup with maverick and Bridget. The dialogue and flow of the story was seamless and engaging and I read in one setting. Off to read the next, kudos to the author on a great series.

Review: This book was everything that I wanted it to be. After reading Man Hunt I was already intrigued by Lindy and Dex and knew their story would be one that I loved. This story has the guy falls first and harder trope that I don’t think I see enough of. Dex was head over heels for Lindy, she just took a bit longer to catch up. Plus in true @vanessa_vale_author style the spice was *chefs kiss*Rating: 5⭐️I can’t wait for book 3 to release!! I’ll have all my fingers and toes crossed that I can get an arc.

Review: If you like a man who is both swoony and has a dirty mouth, look no further than Dex.This book is about Lindy who had to grow up really fast. She's an accountant by day and a romance writer by night...except no one knows she writes books!Age gap...but flip it and reverse it! She is older than Dex, who is a professional hockey player. He falls in love with Lindy the first time he meets her and is determined to marry her.This is a cute instalove story with a dirty talking man and a woman who knows what she wants.I listened to this on audio and it is a single narrator but she does a fabulous job for both characters.
