    About this ebook

    He's every fantasy she's ever had...

    Betsy Mouton knows that easy doesn't last forever. She's working her butt off to launch the Last Call Café so her family can leave the New Orleans bar business—and its heartaches—behind forever. That is, until the hottest one-night-stand of her life shows up next door, twice as uncompromising and two million times hotter, offering to buy the bar and send the Moutons to Easy Street.

    Hotelier Quinton James has never forgotten the unbelievably hot night he and Betsy shared. Never forgotten how beautifully she submitted to him, or how he found the only peace he's ever known in her arms. Now that Betsy is the only thing standing in the way of his new hotel, she's the one in control. But there's more at stake than her café or laying their past to rest—Quin wants a future. With her. All he has to do is convince her...one sensual command at a time.

    Each book in the Hot Nights series is STANDALONE:
    * Into the Fire
    * Seducing the Playboy
    * Make Me, Take Me

    Amanda Usen

    Amanda Usen has spent most of her life immersed in story—and butter, sugar, flour, and eggs. After graduating from college, she fortified her English BA with a degree from the Culinary Institute of America, figuring a professional chef would never be a starving writer. Amanda loves chocolate, yoga, and carbs in all forms. When she isn't writing or cooking, she can usually be found reading or hanging out with her small menagerie of cats, ducks, and mostly-grown children.

      Awesome read! Wonderfully descriptive writing makes the city of New Orleans come alive on the pages. There's plenty of hot sexy times but there is also a great romance in this book making it a great one.

      Betsey Mouton doesn't believe in happily ever after and never wants to depend on a man. Quinton James is a confident man except when it comes to relationships. He figures any one he loves will leave so why bother. After a very hot steamy night neither can forget it seems fate has thrown them together.

      I highly recommend this one.
    • 5/5
      A great story! Well written with excellent descriptions, this novel keeps the reader interested and wanting more. Lots of steamy sex scenes and push-pull between Quin and Betsey. I loved the New Orleans setting. And, by the end of the book, I couldn't help but love Quin.ARC provided by Entangled Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
