First Night (Seductive Nights #0.5) by Lauren Blakely
An erotic novella from the New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author Lauren Blakely...
It was only supposed to be one night…
When the sinfully handsome man walks into her bar in San Francisco, Julia Bell simply wants a break from the troubles that keep chasing her. That escape comes in the form of sexy, confident and commanding Clay Nichols, who captivates her mind AND turns her inside out with pleasure. The attraction is electric and they share one scorchingly hot night together, but they also discover there is more than just off-the-charts chemistry; the connection between them runs deep. Clay never thought he’d return to New York with this woman still on his mind. But he can’t get her out of his system, and he needs more of her…He wants more than just the first night…
*This is a prequel novella to the erotic romance NIGHT AFTER NIGHT.*
5 out of 5 stars
I thought this was the perfect introduction to the Seductive Nights series. I love Clay and Julia's first meeting, it was flirty and fun! They have an instant connection and electric chemistry.
This was a well rounded novella that really gave me a good idea about who Julia and Clay are. There are brief hints about their past that make me extremely intrigued and I definitely want to know more.
If you’re going to jump into something, this is the way to do it because holy WOW Clay has a way with words (hello dirty talker!). He is confident and extremely sexy. I really liked Julia a lot, she’s a strong woman and I love her feistiness. They were so playful together, it was awesome! The hot and steamy sexy times in this story really packed a punch that’s for sure.
I love that we see characters from other books in this story (and almost every Lauren Blakely book if not all of them). The characters always intertwine so well and I get extra happy when I see a character I know.
I love how it ended, with closure but leaving you wanting more and I think it creates a nice transition into the first book, Night after Night. I’m definitely ready for more Clay and Julia!!!
