You know how you always say someday I will?
Well, I’ve hit my someday.
Someday begins today.
Baylee Morgan is at a crossroads of her life. Leaving her marriage of ten years and the only life she’s ever known, she starts over in a penthouse ocean-front condo in Santa Monica, California. She soon finds herself immersed, albeit reluctantly, in the daunting and perilous world of dating as an almost thirty-something in Los Angeles, unsure of how to act, what to do, or whether that hot guy she meets in yoga class is straight.
Sebby Powers’ dream has always been to work in the film industry. At the age of thirty-five, he’s one of the youngest up-and-coming producers in Hollywood. His life is perfect. Perfect apartment. Perfect girlfriend. Perfect dog. Until a friendship with a beautiful woman with vibrant red hair and a similar taste in cheesy movies throws his perfect life into a tailspin.
The Other Side Of Someday is a fun, sexy story of looking for Mr. Right in a world full of Mr. Wrongs, when Mr. Right could be just next door.

Darra's Review:
I am a fan of TK Leigh and was definitely interested in this new Romantic Comedy genre she was leaping into. If you have not read her other books, get on it! You will not be disappointed.
True statement, I loath hearing about a cheater. This happens to Baylee. I ca't imagine being with someone for so long and the a-hole of a husband does that to her. She is moving on and I think that is what she needed to move on. Sure, it is hard to restart life in your 30's. Not expected. However what came to be in her new apartment is friends and a bit more than that. The dates, hilarious. Don't think I will forget what a mess it was for her,
She does meet a guy and you will instantly love. Such interesting conversations, kept my interest. Then surprise! It was Sebby. A guy she can't have but is so into him and he can't reciprocate the same feelings.
I did want to punch Sebby once the truth was out. However it was not completely his fault. Regardless, you will root for both of them to get together. I will leave the rest for you to read.
BTW-awesome friends.
Did I like the book? Yes, it was a light, fun read and do like this side of TK Leigh. I am looking forward to reading more from her. TK Leigh writes so each reader wants more. The story has ended, but the characters will stick with you. Her stories have substance and that is why TK Leigh is set a part from other writers.
I rate the book a 4.5.
Sunny's Review:
I was not sure if I was going to like this book. I ended up
really liking it. It was a fun read in that you got to watch a great friendship
grow. Baylee was an interesting character. Even though she is in her late
twenties she seems a lot younger. Very naive and once you see more of her past
you understand why. There were a lot of times that I wanted to just tell her to
stop talking. She was embarrassing herself and I was embarrassed for her. I
think that shows great writing since I was feeling so much. Sebby was a little
bit of a mystery to me. He was super nice and seemed like a really great guy. I
loved watching the banter with them. They became friends and there were a lot
of little things that made me just sigh. You could see the attraction right
away and as their friendship grew, so did their affection for each other.
I recommend you getting this book. Read it when you feel
like all hope is lost in romance and love. I am giving this book 4.5 stars out
of 5.
Excerpt
“Sebby?” I called out, hesitantly walking through the entryway and into the open living space.
“Holy shit!” I exclaimed when my eyes settled on him standing in front of his refrigerator. But that wasn’t what caught me completely off-guard. It was the fact that he was standing there, holding a towel in his hand, exposing himself in all his glory. I quickly spun around, my entire face turning a shade of red that would put my hair color to shame.
“Fuck!” he shouted. “Do you take the world’s quickest shower or something?!”
“Balls,” I muttered, keeping my eyes glued to a large print of a vintage DC-10 that was hanging on the entryway wall.
“What?” he countered, his voice turning light and amused. I could almost picture that sexy and adorable smile drawn on those kissable lips of his.
“There were balls. And stuff.”
He laughed harder than I had heard him laugh in the few weeks I had known him, the rumble echoing in the open space.
“I’ll never be able to look at you again without seeing your balls, Sebby. Just thought you should know that.” I drew a long breath, trying to settle my nerves. Seeing his mouth-watering body completely bare didn’t help matters any. “Here’s what I’m going to do. I’m going to go back to my apartment. I’m going to have a shot of whiskey. Or tequila. Or gin. Or whatever will make my blood pressure drop. And then I’m going to come back and we’ll try this again, okay?”
“I promise I’ll be dressed when you come back.”
“Why were you bare ass naked in your kitchen anyway? Did you want me to walk in on you like that? Trying to show off?”
“Do you think I have something to show off?”
“I… Well…” I shook it off. “I’m not answering that.”
“Okay then.”
“Okay.”
“Baylee…?”
“Yes?” I turned around as one often does when their name is called.
“Jesus!” His expression grew wide and he hastily attempted to hide himself.
“For fuck’s sake!” I spun back and faced the door once more. “Did you not think to cover yourself up after the first time I walked in and saw you naked? I’m still standing here. You know that bath towels serve some rather astonishing purposes these days, the most useful of which being something to wrap around your waist to keep your junk covered! I’m leaving and taking two shots of whiskey. Be back in five minutes.”
