Another sinfully sexy book from Ember Cole! I loved Bekka in the first book. Her crazyness was something else and I so wanted to see with whom she’ll end up. Adam is the perfect match for her!

She finds herself stuck in an elevator and her claustrophobia is surfacing. Adam comes to save the day and keep her company until it’s fixed. What neither of them anticipated was the instant attraction between them. From the time their eyes meet the air is oozing with sexual attraction!

What I really liked about this book is that it’s not only hot scenes. We get to see the tender and vulnerable side of the characters. Bekka may come out as crazy, superficial and confident but deep down she’s like every other woman with her insecurities and overthinking. Adam has a tender loving side, a side that Bekka sees from the start and that scares her.

It was so good to see them both overcoming their issues and realizing that they are better together than apart. This may be a novella, however the book gave me what I wanted to see and left me wishing for more!!!

This was a fast paced and addictive read!

Overall, I felt it lacking in development a bit sometimes and I guess that’s maybe because I was expecting more pages? The story was over before I was expecting it to haha! That’s why I gave it 3 stars. It was really fun, sexy and addictive but it won’t be a book that’ll stay with me for long because there wasn’t a really in-depth story line you know? Just a perfectly fun, sexy and romantic story to read in between!

Bekka was one hell of a fun main character. I loved her feistiness and her little outburst. Her yelling in that elevator, cursing to the heavens brought a huge smile to my face haha. And there were many moments after that, in which she made me smile. She's just wonderful!

And Adam was such a sexy sweetheart. I love love love those male characters who are sexy AF but have a vulnerable side as well. He was so lovable! But I do think the characters lacked some depth as in; I missed more background story to them. I definitely wish there were more pages added to the story but alas.

The romance itself starts off as insta-lust and the chemistry between Adam and Bekka is so well written down I think! It was so palpable and hot and... I was just so frigging hooked from beginning till end. The banter between these two, the chemistry between them and the sexy times are just to die for!

I can’t wait to read more by this author because the talent for writing addictive romance reads is definitely present!

Super steamy quick read with very likeable characters. I haven't read the first book in the series but that didn't stop me enjoying this book.

This story sucked me in from the very first page, okay the cover had me first, but the book does the cover justice. I’m ready to pick up the next book “unlawful Entry” as anything like this book and “Stiff Discipine” I know it’s going to be fabulous. Absolute recommend this book

I keep thinking I'm in for a sexy read but I am always surprised by the raunchy ride Ms Cole takes me on. Hang on to your Kindles ladies, this one is a scorcher.

I have chosen not to finish or review this title. The blurb was interesting, however the execution of the story made me unable to like either character and it caused the story to not work at all for me.

As always, I appreciate the opportunity to read and review.

The title sure did live up the story. Private Prick was good and I liked most of the storyline. Good writing.

This was a quick read that was over much too soon. I kept waiting for some big secret from Adam. But it is what it is. The story has fun dialogue and lots of sexy times between Adam and Bekka. After a bad breakup, Bekka finds herself stuck in an elevator. When Adam comes to her rescue she pretty much jumps his bones. After that it a battle of insecurities and a quick resolution. Quick trip to love and happiness.

Kinda flighty redhead gets stuck in her building’s elevator and promptly loses it, though due more to men problems than claustrophobia. Then the super drops through the trap door and first frightens her, then satisfies her. A lot of stories would end there, but not when the “crazy chick” can screw with the guy some more.
I really wish this main character wasn’t so erratic, if not completely batcrap (her own word), but at least the writing is keeping me here, being snarky sarcastic in the most brilliant way.
In the end I did like it, though I don’t think I would’ve been as forgiving as he. I wish there’d been a better reason for the hiccup in their budding romance, though.

Dang this book was hotttttt! Bekka and Adam’s chemistry was absolutely incredible! Bekka was unsure about taking things beyond a hookup due to failed relationships but Adam wanted more and I just loved him! Adam was so sweet and hot! When Bekka got over her fears and went after her man I was totally cheering her on lol! This was a hot read and I definitely recommend!

While not typically a fan of insta-lust, Private Prick is an erotic journey between two passionate personalities. While some readers may have a problem with the speed at which the couple’s relationship progresses, the author did a marvelous job at stuffing a complete story into a short novella. The reader has a clear image of the characters and their personalities and they story itself feels complete from beginning to end despite the majority of it taking place in the elevator.

The author should be commended for her ability to create such dynamic characters is such a few short pages while ramping up the heat. The leads have chemistry from their first scene together, with each following scene building upon it. Miss Cole has obvious talent with both development and satisfying sex scenes.

It's hard to give this "story" any more than 3 stars, because there really isn't much of a story. It's mostly sex scenes with a little bit of story thrown in. I guess it was enough for me to not like Bekka. She was a jerk to Adam. She was complaining about how she wanted a connection with someone, and wasn't finding it on Tinder (gasp! really?!). Adam was a nice guy, she used him for sex, and then threw him out of her apartment. Guess it's not really all the guys fault, huh? They end up with a HEA, but it's a pretty rushed ending.

I have to admit that I childishly picked this one because of its title, silly I know. It just made me giggle though and I wanted to read it. Fortunately, it is a nice, quick and fairly hot little read.

Bekka is stuck in the lift in her building and Adam the superintendent (which I think is a kind of caretaker or something) comes to keep her company while she waits to be rescued by the repairmen. He doesn't really know her, but has seen her around and fancied her from afar. Things very soon (and I really mean very soon) heat up between them.

Adam is keen to take things further, but Bekka has made it clear that she isn't interested in a relationship right now. She's only just broken up with her most recent boyfriend after finding out that he already had a fiance.

I quite liked this as a quick bit of escapism. It is quite a short read though, the ebook that I received was nearly half taken up with a couple of taster chapters from the last book and next book in the series. That doesn't matter though, if you're looking for a nice, quick romantic read, then this will probably tick all of your boxes.

I received a complimentary copy of this book through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Bella is having a very bad day. She finds herself stuck in her building's elevator on top of finding out her boyfriend has a fiancee. She calls her roommate who is dating their landlord and leaves a message when it goes to voicemail. After her yelling match, she is startled by something that has landed behind her in the elevator. Turns out it is a man who lands besides her. Turns out he is the super and the landlord's son, Adam. While they wait for the repairman, he distracts her in the most delectable way. Adam and Bella must navigate through their own prejudices and expectations in order to decide what the future holds for them.

Ember Cole's Adam makes you want to be stuck in the elevator with him. She paints a very sexy picture. Reading this story makes you want to grab your person and share moments with them or wish for your book boyfriend to appear in person. Either way, you will root for Bella and Adam and understand that instant attraction between them.

Bekka had just caught her boyfriend CJ when she had showed his photo to a friend and they had said that is Brittain's fiance and when confronted by Bekka he didn’t deny it. Bekka had met CJ on Tinder . Bekka’s roommate and best friend was Kymber. Bekka had bad taste in men she chose the same type over and over. Then Bekka gets stuck between floors on the elevator in her building and she is claustrophobic. Then the super of the building who is the owners son goes down the elevator shaft to the cage and to help Bekka calm down, his name is Adam and he has noticed Bekka around the complex before. Bekka began to tirade and Adam kisses her to shut her up. Adam used oral sex on Bekka to completely clear Bekka’s mind. Adam finds he really likes all he has seen and heard from Bekka and wants to get to know her. After getting out of the elevator Bekka and Adam have sex and he is one of the nicest guys Bekka had ever known yet he scares her when he asks her out to dinner and then he offers just to order a pizza in but Bekka basically kicks him out of her apartment yet he still has a pizza sent to her apartment. It was only suppose to be sex but now it was more. When Bekka talked to Kymber about it she said maybe it was only supposed to be rebound sex but when it was more she got scared , Bekka acted crazy and made Adam leave and then Bekka said maybe she was too crazy for Adam and Kymber told Adam should be able to decide that for himself. So Bekka decides to talk to Adam and goes to his apartment.
Excellent read. This was a fun short, easy, erotic read. I loved Bekka and Adam together. Maybe it was insta/lust at first bit it did grow from there. I read this in one setting. I didn’t want to put this down. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. There was a lot of sex in this book. I liked the pace and plot. I loved that Kymber and Bekka were so close and helped Bekka to figure out that she wanted to know Adam and urged her to go see Adam. I loved the characters and the ups and downs of this book and I highly recommend.
