ABOUT SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS:
A sexy, suspenseful new romance novel from Lauren Blakely, author of the New York Times Bestselling Seductive Nights series…. She was the one who got away… Ten years ago, Brent Nichols let the love of his life slip through his fingers. It’s his greatest regret, especially since she’s all but disappeared. But when the gorgeous and captivating woman walks into his life unexpectedly, he’s determined to win her back. Whatever it takes, he won’t make the same mistake twice.
Easier said than done… Shannon Paige has hardened her heart to the man she was once engaged to be married to. After the way he left, and after the hell she’s been through with her checkered family, there’s no way she’s letting him into her life again. The problem is, the second she sees him, he’s more handsome and charming than before. And she’s torn between wanting to fight with him and wanting to sleep with him - maybe both. Soon they fall into each other’s arms, consumed with a desire that burns through the years. But if these two fiery lovers are going to have a real second chance at this kind of intense, passionate, bone-deep love, he’ll have to give her his whole heart, and she’ll have to give up all the secrets from her messy past. And that messy past is about to spill over into her carefully constructed present… SWEET SINFUL NIGHTS is book one in SINFUL NIGHTS, a four-book series. Each book will follow a new couple.
REVIEW:
I was very excited when I read the blurb for Sweet Sinful Nights, seeing that it was Brent Nichol's book. I LOVED Brent when I was introduced to him while reading Clay and Julia's book in the Seductive Nights Series.
Once I started Sweet Sinful Nights, I could not put the book down. I absolutely LOVED it. Brent is an easy going guy. Laid back, very loving, very nurturing and extremely funny. He only had one flaw. He wasn't willing to compromise and that lost him the love of his life... Shannon Paige.
Both Brent and Shannon were offered a job opportunity. Shannon, doing as most woman engaged to be married, considered her fiance's opinion before accepting the position. Brent, on the other hand, was offered a job that he couldn't refuse and accepted it on the spot, without conferring with Shannon. This then set into play the domino effect. Every action has a consequence. Brent's actions cost him everything.
While I fell in love with both Shannon and Brent, I hated seeing their misfortunes. My heart hurt for Shannon, as her heart shattered into a million pieces when Brent walked away from her. It wasn't easy for Brent either. They were both in love with each other. Sometimes decisions are made hastily, and they aren't well thought out. We all make decisions and say things that we wish we could change.
So when the opportunity arises and their paths cross ten years later, will the sparks still be there? Have either of their feelings changed for each other? Can Shannon forgive Brent for walking away from her all those years ago? Can Shannon trust Brent again? Will Brent finally put Shannon first?
An ARC was provided in exchange of an honest review.
EXCERPT:
“My friend Ally showed me a video she saw on Facebook," Shannon began. "It’s this clip of a girl who grinds on her boyfriend in public while his hand is under her skirt, and they don’t even try to hide that he’s fingering her and getting her off.”
“I like getting you off,” Brent said with a naughty glint in his brown eyes.
“You cannot resist segueing back to dirty talk when I’m telling you a story.”
“I’m so sorry,” he said, placing his palms together. “The story was about a guy making a girl come. Forgive me for thinking about making you come. It’s only my favorite thing in the entire world to do.”
She shot him a tell me more look.
“It’s a hobby I once practiced a few times a day,” he added. “One I’m very interested in taking up again.”
A ribbon of warmth spread through her chest, both from the suggestion of one of her favorite activities, too, but also from the way he was so quick on his toes, so fast with a joke. The man had always made her laugh.
“Anyway, back to the video. So the funny part is they had no clue they’d been caught on camera, even though they were totally obvious. They thought they were being quiet and sneaky when he was trying to make her come.”
“I could make you come quietly,” he said with an easy shrug of his shoulder. “I can make you come loudly, too. I can make you come in pretty much any way.”
She scoffed. Not because it was untrue, but because he was so damn sure of himself. “Confident much?”
“Yeah, I am. I have the track record to prove it. You’re pretty much the only class I aced in college.”
She laughed, looking down at her lap. He was too much sometimes. “Straight As, Brent?”
“Hell no. Higher. I earned A-pluses across the board in your pleasure.”
She rolled her eyes. “You’re relentless.”
He leaned forward across the table, flashing her that cocky grin she’d loved so much. “When it comes to delivering multiple orgasms for you, yes. Relentless is precisely what I am.”
