Quick, hot read….

Sensual. Hot. This author knows how to write erotica and this bite-sized read is bursting at the seams with heat! Danni, Blake and Evan are thrown together by accident and they take full advantage of the opportunity, and each other. There is no buildup, no courtship. Just acting on desire with no messing about. Well, actually it turns out to be quite a bit of messing about, actually. The sexy scenes are triple heated but if you are looking for more than superficial character development then this is not the read for you. But sometimes I’m not in the mood for an intricate back story or complex problem to solve. Instead, this offered exactly what I was looking for – straightforward characters who weren’t afraid to go after what they wanted. Turn up the fan to enjoy this quick, but hot read! ~3.5 stars

Oh my, was this ever a steamy read!

After deciding to do a bit of last minute construction at the office tower she’s been contracted to work on, Danni meets handsome rich boys Blake and Evan. It’s lust at first sight, and after being invited upstairs to their private penthouse for a drink and a dunk in the pool, readers are off to the races in this menage romance.

Right from start, Opal Carew builds up a hot, pornographic fantasy scene with her short denimed, midriff bared Danni on her way to crafting one sexy, explicit, no holds barred, liaison after another. The sex here is hot and full-throttle as the men share Danni in a variety of ways and positions, including some double-penetration and a too-brief scene of mutual masturbation by the men at Danni’s command.

DRILLED is an entertaining work of high-quality eroticism. Although the characters are a bit thin, they’re also not really the primary reason for reading this particular novella. But in terms of explicit, sexy steamy, adults-only content, Opal Carew delivers.

This is fun hot & steamy read. Its not big on character development or story line but that doesn't matter. Great book to lose yourself in for a bit after a stressful week.

Always love Opal Carew.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

I have chosen not to review this title or to feature it on the blog.

Thanks.

Well, this was something. Too short to really be anything that will stay with me, but fun while it lasted.

Small town romance that is filled with southern charm, and plenty of sass. I loved the humor in this one.

This is a very plot and sex drive book. But this is erotica so....😂. I would suggest reading it if you are into a strong, capable female and ployrelationship.

Drilled was a steamy menage a trios between three very sane adults. Opal Carew is an author that I enjoy reading from. Her books always keep me laughing. This book follows a female construction worker named Danni and two hot billionaire friends Ethan and Blake. This book was over the moon amazing for me. Why 4 stars instead of 5? The romance was just toooo quick for me. I would have enjoyed more hesitation from Danni instead of her just jumping head first into a three-way with the guys.

Danni was a strong woman. Blake was very demanding. Ethan was tender and loving. I absolutely loved them all together. Awesome ending as well.

Opal Carew always brings the heat and this book is no exception. The chemistry and heat between the three characters is off the chain! It is not just hot, it is SCORCHING! A sinfully dirty Read!

Drilled is erotica, not erotic romance, not romance, just erotica, pretty much just porn. It's hot and short, not much in the way of plot or story development, and a good way to spend a few.

Danni is a construction worker working overtime on a job when she meets two hot guys who invite her to have a drink with them after she's done. She doesn't realize at first they're the owners of the building, but once she does, it doesn't deter her, or them, from having a steamy little tryst in their pool. From there there's more sex, a little hurt feelings toward the end, then she's moving in with them, then it ends.

So if you're in the mood for a hot ménage, Drilled is the book for you. If you want romance, a plot, a developed storyline and developed characters, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Carew's newest title is nothing original--the characters are lackluster, the story bland, and the "kink" isn't even worthy of being called BDSM. Watching paint would be more exciting than reading this.

Drilled is a short standalone read with a familiar plot lines, disappointing stepdaughter and two hot billionaires. Danni needs a favor and Evan and Blake that hate to be used help her. A mother who lays on a guilt trip to her daughter to save her husband. The characters were good, the chemistry was flowing and overall it was a good read.
The relationship moves quickly to explore mild BDSM, surprisingly, as Danni just met these two and didn’t think of using any protection. Blake is a bit of a dominant where Evan is a sweet heart. Sadly, there's not much development. I would have liked a bit more development of the characters but with the story being so short, there just isn’t enough time for that.

Hotness. Loved this book. Must read. I'm an enjoyed of this author.

Danni meets Evan and Blake one night by chance and that will change the course of all of their lives. A steamy read that had me blushing in parts! Great for an escape read!

This novella is not for the fainthearted. It’s very steamy. Like extremely steamy. If you prefer sex on the sweeter side of the spectrum, this might not be your cup of tea! The sex here is definitely a bit more ‘porn lit’ than ‘romance lit’. Given that it’s a novella, I think my primary issue with the book is that it was just too short. The book didn’t give the characters much time for development. It felt very forced at first because there was no development between them. It was hard for me to imagine that things developed as they did given how little there is about them as individuals. They just came to feel more cardboard than I’d like to have seen. It’s a really quick read … and very, very HOT. I just wish there were a bit more depth to the characters and the story which would have made this one feel more cohesive.

ARC - I voluntarily offered to review this book with no obligations and my opinions are honest!
Danni was just trying to finish loose ends
She did not know that she would meet 2 sexy alpha males. Hubba! Hubba!
One thing leads to another + all three of them ended up doing the horizontal tango.
Blake + Evan could not believe their luck
She was sexy, sassy, funny, and all of the above.
Soon enough, they wanted more that just a quickie.
They wanted a relationship.
This was a quick hot sexy read.

M/F/M Novella Romance

Danni is her own woman. Despite what her stepfather would like, she has stuck to her own guns and kept doing what she loves – construction. It helps her feel close to her dad, who passed away. Even though she doesn't have a great mom and her stepdad is skeezy and mean, she has forged ahead.

When she goes in on the weekend to ensure that the work is done correctly, she runs in to Blake and Evan. They are two sexy business men who just happen to own the business that she's helping to construct.

Blake and Evan work hard. They also like to take pleasure in the same woman. While you don't know very much about them, you do know that they both like Danni.

This is a very quick, steamy read. It is not very developed, but then again, it's too short to really get into anything. The chemistry is okay, but the scenes are very hot.

Cute, sassy afternoon read with lots of smexy times. There are a lot of familiar plot lines, disappointing stepdaughter (that would be Danni) and the hot to trot billionaires (Blake and Evan), girl needs a favor, billionaires that hate to be used, and a mother who lays on a guilt trip to her poor daughter to save her husband.

For a short story, it works. If it had been 100 pages longer I fear it would have gotten repetitious, but in this length, the chemistry between Blake, Danni, and Evan jumps off the page. I'd say it leaves you wanting more but anything more would be too hot to handle...

This is a quick read with a potential sequel in the making.

This novella starts with an old school porn set up (business men surprised by a sweaty, scantily clad construction worker) and quickly moves on to a second, equally familiar Pretty Woman/Pygmalion storyline. The tropes are a little tired but this is erotica with a touch of storyline. The sex is hot and the m/f/m ménage scenes are steamy and pretty creative.

Construction worker Danni is actually a pretty interesting character. Her family drama doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, but I enjoyed her as the billionaire pair’s ‘bit of rough.’ Readers who enjoy a Pretty Woman story will like the scenes where the men take her for a designer makeover.

Blake and Evan are the usual attractive and attentive romance fiction billionaires. There is a tiny bit of m/m play in this story, but the author makes it clear that these are straight guys humouring Danni. I’m always a bit dubious about the straight guys who want a long-term m/f/m relationship, but Blake and Evan are sexy and I did enjoy their sexual adventures with Danni.

The actual storyline left me a little bewildered but I don’t think anyone is going to read this for a storyline. There are some fun moments and some very sexy scenes in this story.

This book is pure escapism with some hot and steamy scenes, but a with slightly odd story wrapped around it.

It undoubtedly features a level of insta-lust that works, but three-way insta-love that seems a little excessive, even for someone who believes in love at first sight.

I enjoyed the turn around in that the construction worker was female, but she was doing it by choice, not because she was without means. Her back story was a little odd, and her relationships with her stepfather and mother were rather strange. But her encounters with Blake and Evan were erotic, if unlikely!

As I say, pure fantasy, and sometimes that is all you need!

This was a quick read. I read it in one sitting when I couldn't sleep one night. It was hot and thoroughly enjoyable, making you wish you could be in Danni's shoes!

*3 Stars*

There's not really too much to say about this one. Theres not really any getting to know the characters too deeply which I don't mind, but I prefer to connect with them. Things move quickly in this book. Its fast paced, HOT and overall just a quick read.

I did like that the main character is a female tradie and there were a few personality glimpses of the characters, but overall its fast paced and about the relationship between Danni and Evan and Blake.

This was an OK read for me. If you love a hot, dirty insta love story, you will love this read. I like a little bit more character development and back story, but Danni, Evan and Blake were hot in the sack! The scenes were steamy and there was a M/F/M insta-love connection. It was an OK read for me.
