A dangerous infatuation with a rough and ready man…
Erin Coffey has been a nurse for years, but nothing’s prepared her for the physical and emotional demands of her new position. Needing to move closer to her dysfunctional family, she takes a dangerous job at Larkhaven Psychiatric Hospital, where she quickly learns that she needs protection—and she meets the strong, over-confident coworker who’s more than willing to provide it.
Kelly Robak is the type of guy that Erin has sworn she’d never get involved with. She’s seen firsthand, via her mess of a sister, what chaos guys like him can bring into a woman’s life. But she finds herself drawn to him anyway, even when he shows up at her door, not eager to take no for an answer.
What Erin finds even more shocking than Kelly’s indecent proposal is how much she enjoys submitting to his every command. But he can’t play the tough guy indefinitely. If they want to have more than just an affair, both will have to open up and reveal what they truly need.

"Right now, though, the world spun on Kelly's c~ ck. The sun rose and set around it, and I wanted it like I'd never known I could want anything."After Hours is the second book I have read by Cara McKenna. She does an excellent job of capturing real characters -genuine and tangible people with self-reflection and a non-perfect past. Though very much erotic tales, they also portray inner growth and the impact of the impending relationship. I very much enjoyed Kelly's and Erin's journey in After Hours and hope you will to.
Hero: Kelly Robak/38 years/orderly/dark brown hair, shaved/pale grey eyes
Heroine: Erin Coffey/27 years/certified LPN-recent graduate/brown hair/blue eyes
Erin Coffey had grown up fast, due to a neglectful mother, from age ten she had taken on the role of raising her sister. She had spent the last six years caring for her grandmother while attending school part-time to become a certified LPN. After her grandmother passed away and she graduated she decided to take a job at Larkhaven, a facility for people with various stages of mental illness. Story opens up with her arrival at Larkhaven. There she meets Kelly who works as an orderly. They have an instant attraction to each other and so their story begins.
Kelly Robak was an amazing hero. If I were to describe him in three words it would be: genuine, reliable and in control. Just like Erin, Kelly has risen from a difficult childhood. In the story you will learn more of his upbringing and why he ended up at Larkhaven; Glimpses into the enigma of Kelly:
"I watched him go, a tower of lean muscle and scar tissue camouflaging more secrets than I'd realized."
His way of dealing has been to be in control and dominant in his sexual relationships. He was very much in touch with himself and made no apologies:
"I spend forty to fifty hours a week at everybody's beck and call. When I'm off, I want what I want, the way I want it."
But he had a sense of humor about it as well:
"He smiled back. "I'm not awake enough to be a bossy d~ ck yet."
And sex with Kelly did not disappoint, Erin nor me:
"He was the best lover I'd ever had. So far ahead of the competition, I couldn't even recall their names or faces."
***
"My mouth could deny my interest in Kelly all day long, but my p~ ssy didn't lie. He felt like more than a single person. Two hands, a hard body, a mean voice. A one-man orgy. I'd leave here limping, just as he'd promised."
Just like Erin I was mesmerized by Kelly's moody pale grey eyes. These quotes are in tribute thereof:
"His irises were pale with a dark ring, gray like his self-designed uniform..."
"...his eyes looked different outside. Nearly blue, like a thick, antique glass bottle."
"I studied his eyes. They were nearly a color today, a frozen lake reflecting a clear blue..."
"His eyes looked pale green this afternoon, the color of corroded copper."
"Behind narrowed lids his eyes were ice, and they followed my every motion
"His mood-ring eyes were neutral gray, summer clouds that threatened no rain."
A very enjoyable read; Different storyline, excellent character development and a hero to remember. My only gripe would be that after reading a full length book the ending was a bit rushed and I would have liked an epilogue - fast forward a few years. Ms. McKenna please!

After Hours InterMix edition by Cara McKenna Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
“What else do women find so troublesome about you?”
Kelly shrugged. “Just general bossy a$$holery.”
“Ah. Well, nice that you’re self-aware, I suppose.”
“I’m real my-way-or-the-highway. Got no patience when things don’t go how I want them to.”
I thought this book was enjoyable, it didn’t knock my socks off and it didn’t cause any unnecessary angst or really strong emotions but it was a nice, easy read all the same. I’ve read a few other books by this author and one of the things I’ve liked about all of them is that they feel very real life and are totally believable. The characters seem like real people with real issues, real reservations in real life situations. I like that, it helps me connect to the characters and care about them.
Right off the bat I could relate to Erin as she started her new job at the psychiatric ward, her fears and worries over being there and what might happen to her were exactly the same reactions I would have. I liked how despite being so afraid she fought to not let the fear get the best of her, and aside from an incident on her first day, I think she was pretty successful at it. It was an interesting dynamic between her and Kelly because she was always the one in control and protecting those she cares about. She was the one everyone relied on, she’s always tried not to rely on anyone (and particularly not a man). Whereas Kelly’s needs were pretty straightforward “I just want to feel needed by somebody who deserves whatever I got to offer.” He knew what he was good at and making a woman feel protected and helping to do things that she couldn’t do herself were two things that he knew he was good at and he just wanted the opportunity to do those things for someone. Because of Erin’s independent nature she struggled with admitting she needed Kelly and accepting what he was offering her. This power struggle, for lack of a better term, is the source of most of the drama in this book, but like I said earlier it wasn’t over the top and it was entirely believable.
I liked Kelly a lot. He was no nonsense and while he was definitely an alpha male and made it clear exactly what he wanted he didn’t come across as a huge jerk (maybe just a slight jerk sometimes). It was clear he cared and not just about this thing he felt between him and Erin, but despite the fact that he could appear cold or intimidating at work he clearly cared about the people whose safety he was charged with. I liked and appreciated how upfront he was with Erin and told her straight up what he was looking for and he didn’t play any games. He was bossy and wanted what he wanted but he was always honest about it and you knew just where you stood and if you didn’t all you had to do was ask and he’d tell you. Very uncomplicated! His bluntness was sometimes amusing, because he was very aware of how he was so he sometimes made light of it and I found myself smiling or laughing at some of the things he’d say.
The book moved along at a good pace and the progression of their relationship felt natural and I thought the ending was very sweet, however it felt like they had only just begun by the time the book ended and I wished there were more. At least an epilogue rather than having to make up a HEA in my head. But I knew going into the book that there wouldn’t be one, it seems like this author’s formula to not include one. I guess she likes to leave it up to the reader to comes up with where they see the couple ending up! In any event, if you’re looking for a quick, (pretty) light, definitely steamy read with just a touch of drama but a whole lot of real life feel then this might be just what you’re looking for!
No, no no no no! Srsly no. You don't get to give this four stars ONLY, becuz this damn thing actually has characters, real characters that are flawed and now all "hot and ripped and wearing a suit with golden hair and blue eyes". This guy is kinda scary (Ok, so maybe I like Henry Rollins a little too much) but NO. Side charcters where they work, sisters to deal with, real storyline. It's good. Way better than most garbage out there. Thank you Cara for knowing how to actually write. Thanks.
This is a story about about attractive working class people. No billionaires. No red rooms. H and h have both had tough childhoods yet rise above it to become good people living normal lives though still carrying some emotional baggage. Very erotic yet true to life and well-written. Nothing I'd consider bdsm but there is a mild spanking scene. I was sorry to have the story end wishing there was a second book that continues Erin and Kelly's story.
"Right now, though, the world spun on Kelly's c~ ck. The sun rose and set around it, and I wanted it like I'd never known I could want anything."
After Hours is the second book I have read by Cara McKenna. She does an excellent job of capturing real characters -genuine and tangible people with self-reflection and a non-perfect past. Though very much erotic tales, they also portray inner growth and the impact of the impending relationship. I very much enjoyed Kelly's and Erin's journey in After Hours and hope you will to.
