First Night Review:


Holy Cannoli!!! Clay Nichols!!!! Where in the world have you been hiding?!?!?!?! Oh, my God!!! He is absolutely going on my Dirty Talker list *Fans Self* 

First Night by Lauren Blakely was a scorching hot novella that will leave you wanting more of Julia and Clay. 

A bartender.
A lawyer.
One hot encounter.
A night neither of them can forget. 

Sensual, addictive and memorable are just a few words that come to mind when I think about this novella. 

This was my first time reading a book by Lauren Blakely and I loved it!!!! I can't wait to read all her other books! Her writing style is captivating and her characters are fun, passionate and unforgettable! This is really a short read (under 100 pages) and I devoured it! It's the perfect beginning to a deliciously addictive series! Trust me when I say that you NEED to meet these two intense and sexy characters. You won't be disappointed!

Sit back, relax, and prepare your fan because Mister Clay Nichols is one sexy beast! 

Rating:


I give, First Night, by Lauren Blakely 4.5 steamy, sexy, seductive stars!


Night After Night Review:


It only took me four chapters to get hooked on Lauren Blakely's writing! First Night was my first read by this fantastic author! When I read a book the connection I feel with the main characters is very important to me. It's what makes me FEEL the story. Well, let me tell you that I felt the connection with Julia and Clay from the very beginning of this sexy journey. 


Night After Night picks up exactly where First Night left off. Julia, a bartender from San Francisco, and Clay, a lawyer from New York created sparks when they met for the first time. What started off as a no strings attached night of passion, soon turned into an intense and passionate love affair. The more time they spend together, the more their feelings for each other get stronger. Julia is hiding behind a wall of lies. She won't get attached to a man until she is free from her past. A past that could cost her Clay's trust. If there is one thing that Clay hates, it's  liars. Will their relationship be strong enough to overcome all the obstacles that Julia's past is throwing their way?

First Night left me wanting more of these two intoxicating characters and I could not wait to see how they were going to ignite my kindle in Night After Night! Oh, boy did they set it on fire! Julia and Clay have such an intense chemistry! These two indulge in some pretty heavy dirty talking. Just thinking about Clay's dirty talking ways ... I get the tingles! We are talking Dirty Talker Royalty over here!! The steamy scenes in this book are full of HOTNESS!!! Oh, my squeeeee!!! *Fans self* 

Like I mentioned before, it took me no time at all to fall in love with both these characters. Julia is sexy, strong and confident. Clay is .... OMG! Where do I start with Clay? Hot Damn! He's all kinds of sexy! He is such an alpha male, but he has that sweet/tender side that melts my heart. The way he falls for Julia ... Swoon!!! He tells her exactly how he feels about her. He's such an honest person. Even if Julia is keeping secrets from Clay, you can see that she developed strong feelings for him. She wants to hold on to those moments she shared with him with all that she's got! 

I absolutely loved Night After Night. I am sooooooo happy that After this Night is available, and I can finally reunite with these two unforgettable characters! Fantastic work by Lauren Blakely!

Rating:


I give, Night After Night, 5 all-consuming, amazing, deliciously erotic stars! Eeeeeep!!! I'm ready for After this Night! ;)
