Even though this is a short read it is a scorching hot read! But beware if you’re not into a MMF or MM loving then this is not the book for you. But those that are into that, prepare yourself for a heck of a ride!! Gio was Olivia’s first love and best friend. She saw a future with him but he thought leaving her was the best decision- well it wasn’t for either. When she runs into him in Italy and the feelings she had for him come back to life Gio realizes that this situation could be a win, win for him. There isn’t much drama and but like I said earlier, it’s a fast read and I felt we could have gotten a bit more meat on this story. Get ready for the heat Cathryn Fox brings us.
This was a short adult story. It was easy and fun to read. I liked how the author created the flow here, that did not seem forced.
The series are about group of girl friends, that for their twenty-fifth birthday draw a name, and that person plans a surprise vacation for them, and by surprise I mean surprise, because they do not know what they are going to get there, even their dresses are packed for them. All they get is a dossier, where they are going.
Hot. Damn.
I mean, hot damn, people. Now this is what I call erotica. While it's full of ridiculously hot smut (all of the smut!), there's still a romance at the heart of it. And for a quickie read that I devoured (while fidgeting uncomfortably because MY OVARIES!), it was very satisfying. It's like a decadent morsel of dessert. You don't need much to make it fulfilling because it's so rich and delicious. Do you know what I mean or do you KNOW WHAT I MEAN?!
This is one sizzling hot MFM romance that will hit the spot just right. I love the premise of this series, with girlfriends forming a pact to buy each other their dream trip on their 25th birthdays. First up? Olivia. Still not over her ex boyfriend that broke her heart, she finds herself at a beautiful vinery in the middle of Italy on her trip. But while the scenery is gorgeous, there's not a hot man in sight....until she sees one that rocks her world. The twist? Her ex boyfriend happens to be the son of the owners of the vinery she's staying at. He walked away from her because he thought his desires were too depraved for a good girl like Olivia. But what he doesn't know is that she craves exactly what he's been holding back on with her. And when they find out their desires happen to be shared? ALL OF THE OVARY EXPLOSIONS. My only quibble is that I would have loved for an epilogue to really tie everything together, but I guess you can't have it all
If you're looking for a smokin' hot MMF romance that you can devour in one afternoon, you're welcome. Just make sure you're not in public so as to avoid any...ummm....uncomfortable repercussions. Ovary survival not guaranteed.
Olivia is on her way towards a vacation from her life. Her close friends made a pact for each one to send another on a trip of a lifetime and have epic sex, when they turn twenty-five. She ends up in Italy-Tuscany to be exact and staying in a vineyard. All she sees is older people. Some trip of a lifetime. Just then she spots Gio. Her college love of her life. who left her. Heartbroken. What's the chance of this being his family's vineyard?? Her best friends couldn't know could they??
Gio left Olivia and moved back to Italy to protect her from himself. She was a minister's daughter, and he had darker needs. He's never gotten over her. When she shows up out of the blue in his vineyard, fate has dealt him a gift he will not squander. In order to take over the family business, he needs to marry. The vineyard is failing. How can he get Olivia to help him? Problem is, I can't touch her. I couldn't stop and she deserves nice. I can't always be nice....
And then there is Luca, Gio's best friend, and lover..... How can he fit into the mix?-if he even can..... Maybe the good girl is ready to be very naughty....
What an interesting scenario. I love the Dossier series! I first read book two, House Rules, and had to go back and read book one! Short, spicy reads that pack a lot of story on the pages! Gio and Olivia never stopped loving each other. It was lack of communication that drove them apart. Now that they are older, they have an idea what they want, and it's each other. Their chemistry was spiking from the pages and I felt their connection. I love second chance love stories and this is one of the better ones I have read. The interesting twist is the best friend and how he fit. I liked the addition and it seemed right within the story! This turned into one sizzling MFM read!!

This was an interesting ,short,fast paced and hot story.If you like MM, MMF, and super hot then this is exactly what you need!
Hot damn, Private Reserve is down and dirty and hot! Olivia is on a friend sponsored birthday vacation in Italy at a beautiful vineyard when she stumbles upon two hot men, one named Lucas and one wearing a hat hiding his face, having hot, dirty, dominating sex. Olivia is jealous because she wants to inspire that kind of heat in a man and for him to take her like that, she wants to be dominated and used and for him to set her dormant desires on fire. A short time later her ex, the one who broke her heart two years earlier when he broke up with her, sees her at the vineyard (his family's vineyard) and proposes marriage on the spot, causing Olivia to choke on the grape she had just thrown into her mouth.
When Gio comes to her rescue and dislodges the grape stuck in her throat that's cutting off her oxygen, dread spreads through her heart. She's never gotten over the man who shredded her heart, and she regrets letting her friends convince her that this vacation where she's not to come home until she's had "legendary sex-delicious, salacious, rough and dirty, 'bang me against the wall and leave me bruised' sex." was a good idea. But, as Gio explains why he needs her to marry him (so he can take control of the vineyard and modernize it), she thinks perhaps she can do it, after all, she'll get something out of this fake marriage - her dream job, then she can be the one to leave Gio after he takes control of his vineyard.
Of course, that's not what happens, as the feelings Olivia has always had for Gio are still there, and Gio's own dark desires come out to play when he realizes just how naughty his new, fake, wife is, that she's not the sweet, innocent pastor's daughter he had thought she was while they were together two years earlier. When Gio realizes he can have both halves of his soul, Olivia and Luca, his best friend and lover, a hot scene plays out and Olivia gets more than she had ever bargained for when she set out on her 25th birthday vacation.
If you like MM, MMF, or even just dirty, dominating kind of sex, I highly suggest you check out Private Reserve. It may be short, and lacking a lot of backstory and things like deep feelings, but it's seriously hot and all three characters are likable and interesting, especially Luca.
A group of women who make a pact to ensure each one of them has a night of sin. This story is the beginning of what promises to be a fantastic series. A M/M to M/F to MMF book that sizzles in a vineyard in Italy. Who knew traveling could be so exciting?
This was one of the hottest novels I have ever read! I absolutely loved the hero and the heroine and will read more from this author in the future.
I would like to thank NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of this novel!
4.5 Scorching stars~
YEP! Hot, fast scorching hot read.
Although short this book packs a lot into a little space .
A second chance type of book with MM, BDSM, MMF and it leave nothing left to want for.
The author has a way with the naughty words and if you have an open mind this is a book you won't want to miss.
Private Reserve is a new fast and steamy novel is what I hope will be a new series that is a part of the Scorched genre in the Entangled Publishing. It’s a short story about second chances but with intense sizzling hot storyline! It may not be for everyone because it may have some uncomfortable topics and just isn’t everyone’s taste. There’s BDSM, M/M, M/F, and M/M/F scenes. This novel is the perfect sexy quick standalone story. I would give it 4 stars!
Cathryn Fox can write serious smut like nobody's business. And I say that with the highest of compliments and regards. This was epically HOT people ... like ridic SCORCHING! And .... it has a really sweet second chance story too! SERIOUSLY!
Go forth and enjoy (you're gonna need extra panties)!!

If you are looking for a hot, steamy, sexy book that has m/m romance, m/f/m romance, menage, BDSM, and some very epic sex, you've come to the right book. Private Reserve is the first book I've read from Cathryn Fox and it definitely won't be my last.
Cathryn Fox puts a little bit of everything in Private Reserve in such a short book. It was packed with heat immediately, when the female character, Olivia is off to experience her epic sex due to her sponsor who has sent her to Italy to find it. She never realized she was going to come across other lovers having epic sex near her villa she's staying at. She is more than determined to find her own epic sex and it may come from someone she never thought she come across again. I don't want to get into much of the story because I will end up giving too much away and I definitely don't want to do that.
I enjoyed every bit of Private Reserve's storyline, especially when second chance lovers get back together and more. I was actually aching for more at the end, especially how Cathryn left the characters. I will warn you, the scenes will beyond HOT. :)
I give this book 4.5 stars and look forward to reading much more from Cathryn Fox in the very near future. If you are fan of Cathryn Fox or even a new fan of Cathryn Fox, like me, I highly recommend reading this book.
This super hot quick read will be one I look forward to re-reading again and again. The premise behind the Dossier series is a group of friends are to so something on their bucket list for their twenty-fifth birthday. One friend is in charge of the birthday persons dossier which will ensure that their deepest desire is fulfilled. Whomever setup Olivia's dossier was one hundred percent correct in sending her to this particular place to fill her desire of a wild and crazy night of sex.
Gio breaks up with Olivia thinking it was the right thing to do, he is convinced that he is to dark for a ministers daughter...boy is he wrong! Gio is everything that Olivia is looking for but neither of them know if. Two years have past since they had broken up and they still think of the other with fondness and longing so when Olivia is vacationing at his family's winery in Italy neither are prepared for what is about to happen.
Luca....Luca....Luca, boy talk about HOT! Two gorgeous men and one lucky woman make this an extremely hot read. This is a great start to the series, I cannot wait to see who's dossier is up next.
This is a smoking hot romance by Cathryn Fox!
Olivia and Gio broke up over a year ago and since then neither of them is really happy. Olivia's friends send her on a much needed vacation to Italy, but Olivia is even finding the vacation lacking.
Finding out Olivia is staying at his family owned winery makes Gio realize just how much he still wants her in his life. Will he finally be able to tell her the truth about himself and will Olivia be able to accept it?
Private Reserve is wicked hot. I would have liked a little bit more closure for the ending since that was really abupt. But the storyline flowed. The chemistry between the characters was great. There is so much that was left on the table and that bothers me.
Note, I did receive this book from Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.
4 1/2 STARS!
A super sexy novella filled with a heated reunion story! Must be okay with M/M & menage to enjoy!
Olivia Fraser was the best thing that ever happened to Gio Rossi, but he had to walk away from her. His dark passion would have ruined the minister's daughter for sure! He's never forgotten her, and when he shockingly sees her visiting his family's Italian vineyard, he believe his prayers have all been answered. Will Olivia agree to forgive Gio ... and maybe help him get gain control of the vineyard before it's too late?
Scorching Hot! This was one Yummy, Scorching, Hot read by Cathryn Fox and why I love her so much. She sure knows how to bring the heat! This is a sexy, fast read that'll leave you panting and completely captivated. The chemistry is combustible and your fingers will feet the burn with every flip of the page. Oh did I smolder and swoon! She once again outdid herself in an unputdoownable, pulse pounding and pleasurable penned piece of perfection! Weaving her magic into wondrous words that make you melt for more, more, more. Please More! Buy this now! Loved it! Highly Recommended!
I voluntarily requested an arc through the publisher and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
'Private Reserve ' by Cathryn Fox is the story of Olivia and Gio. This is a Novella with around 90 pages or so. This is a short and hot read that gives a second chance at love. Olivia is still dealing with a sore heart after Gio up and left her. But she is on a Birthday Trip given to her by her friend in a birthday pack they made with each other to give each a exciting 25th birthday adventure where they are to have 'epic sex'. But Olivia ends up meeting Gio where she is staying...and finds that his family owes Villa she is staying at. Gio is hiding a secret that he doesn't think Olivia would understand or want to be a part of. In addition, he thinks she won't understand his feelings for Luca. Can these two work things out? Can they get past this deal they made and more forward to something stronger and more permanent.

Another great read by Ms. Fox! Although it was a short and quick read it was still consuming with hot scenes! Olivia sent on a trip for her birthday by her group of friends ends up at her ex boyfriends winery without her knowledge. Gio left Olivia in Seattle because he was scared he would hurt her with his needs in the bedroom. Olivia wanted certain things in the bedroom and was scared to voice her desire's, there lack of communcation was there main problem, they both wanted the same things out of relationships and neither knew it. When Olivia helps Gio out to save the winery things are discovered and secerts and truth's revealed. Hated it was so short but still done beautifully. Honest review in exchange for ARC.
