Although Ran laughs off the mix-up, Lacey and Rick can’t stop thinking about the unexpected encounter, and they can’t escape the scorching flashbacks it’s aroused.

The Review:
The Best Mistake by Kate Watterson is a satisfying short story that is wonderfully steamy. A case of mistaken identity provides Lacey Billings and her boyfriend Ran the opportunity to live out a fantasy with unanticipated results.
The Best Mistake is a charming romance with marvelously developed characters. Lacey, Ran and Rick are likable and three dimensional. Their shared history provides enough of a back story to make the plot believable. The sex scenes are passionate and sexy but not overly graphic or what I would consider to be erotic.
The Best Mistake is a wonderfully unconventional romance with a surprising amount of depth. Kate Watterson takes the story in an unexpected but delightful direction. If you like books with a little extra spice, then you are sure to enjoy The Best Mistake.
