Okay if you're a lover of steamy reads then I believe you will love this book. It has a little of everything. It was my first book by the author and definitely would love reading more of her stuff. It's a short read. Bianca and Aiden and both loveable character who knows how to sex right. A total panty wetter. Especially when Aiden's friends join the party. I wish I had a sexy neighbor like him move in next door. If you're looking for a yummy sexy read I highly recommend this book.

There is a line between erotica and something that belongs in the Penthouse Forum. I was not a fan of this book. The book was too short for character development.

I voluntarily reviewed an ARC provided by NetGalley and the publisher.

Oh my goodness, this is one scorcher of a story, Bianca and Aiden are neighbours and are both attracted to each other through an act of exhibitionism, Bianca starts the teasing and he is only too happy to reciprocate. Enjoyable.

My Thoughts: At its heart Show Off is a smut filled romance novel between a scarred architect and his neighbour, who happens to have a bit of a voyeurism kink. The novel is an very quick and engaging read that effortlessly balances plot with passion .


Sometimes with romance novels that feature a lot of erotic scenes, I find that they lack an emotional core. At no point in Show Off did I feel that story was sacrificed for the sexy scenes. Rather they worked together and fed into each other. There was enough content and character development present in the novel for me to feel connected and invested in Aidan and Bianca’s romance.

The characters were engaging as well, Bianca was a strong independent woman who at times was quite kooky and vulnerable. One memorable scene was her sudden urge for milkshakes 😛 In Show Off Bianca is often sexually in charge, she knows what she wants and isn’t afraid of her desires. However on the other hand she was sometimes emotionally vulnerable, she knows what she wants for her future but at times she questions her ability to find someone who will love and take her seriously.

Cue Aidan. Aidan comes off quite stoic and sometimes reserved, however when he interacts with Bianca he really came alive. The easy way in which he accepts all of Bianca was such a pleasure to read. The way he interacts with and meets Bianca’s grandmother had me smiling down into the book.

Show Off is not a book to be dismissed – it is a fun, emotional, and yes, sexy read ❤

Smut Level: Woah.

This book!

This book – woah!

If a book comes with a little extra blurby bit just to say how ‘scorching hot’ it is, then you should listen. Show Off is 100% scorching hot! As the blurb suggests there is a foursome, exhibitionism, and a huge helping of voyeurism. Oh and just casually a HEA between the two romantic leads.

If that doesn’t tell you how incredibly hot Show Off is, it is part of the incredibly cheeky ‘One Handed Reads‘ from Entangled Publishing. So you know, there’s that.

Please note: I received a copy of Show Off from NetGalley.

3.5 - 4 stars
I loved the characters, but their relationship started out different and kinda unusual, imo. I kinda wish there was more to the build up of the relationship.
Steamy, hot, sexy read. Erotica fans will love this blazing book.

Aiden lives a solitary life, because of his scars on the outside and the inside ... except for the odd hook-up. Bianca moves in next door to a muscular hunk and starts giving him nightly erotic shows. Can he be the one to give her all her dreams and a happily-ever-after.

This book was burning in my hands ... HOT HOT HOT! Ms. Cole sure knows how to write a erotic scene. I could just feel the electricity between Bianca and Aiden ... and the scene when Aiden's buddies joined them ... WOW! If you are looking for a quick read to get you hot and bothered, then this is it ... PERIOD!

Steamy, passion, sexy, panty melting.

Such a wickedly delicious book. Every word burned the pages of this short read. It was scorching hot and a bit dirty.

I’m not a big erotica read, but this one was a serious panty wetter. It was hot, entertaining, and a nice short read.

I loved the characters, and their relationship started out different than what I’m used to, but ended up how I wanted it to.

I loved it. Erotica fans will love this blazing book.

I’m a bit conflicted on how to review this book. It was exactly what it claimed to be... fast smutty reading. And it was super hot.. I definitely enjoyed that aspect of it. I couldn’t help but wonder though how much better this book would have been if it had been a full fleshed out novel. The premise of how Bianca and Aiden met was really unique and I would have loved to have seen all of that developing a little slower and see their relationship grow once together. It would have made for a fantastic unique book instead of one that will be unfortunately forgettable. Overall this book was good for what it was but could have been so much better.

4 Truth In Advertising Stars
* * * * Spoiler Free
Every once in a while I enjoy a little Bow Chicka Bow Bow to read. I like to mix it up, get my smexy on and then move on to the next read. Many authors have come up with own their ways of doing these types of erotic stories. Ember Cole is a new-to-me author and with this read, I think she has a real handle on this genre.

We have the perfect set up for an exhibitionist, voyeur, role-playing people.

One is a very liberated woman who knows what she likes and has no shame in taking it. She is a neighbor to a man who keeps to himself. He is strong and built but has a large long scar which covers part of his chest and goes up to the side of his face. It isn't easy to look at so he has become comfortable remaining in the shadows. Both of their homes have back decks which are angled so that each is able to look into each home through lots of sliding glass doors.

She starts the teasing first. He is caught like a deer in headlights and cannot look away. At first, he thinks he needs to stay still so she won't know he is able to see her but then she looks straight at him and it becomes game on.
The blurb gives you everything you need to decide if this is for you.

Entangled Publishing was right on the money when they developed this new division, One Handed Reads. I see they believe in Truth of Advertising, too.

Bianca has an exhibitionist kink and loves getting off while her hot neighbor, Aidan is watching. But soon just watching is not enough. And when they come together fireworks fly. Bianca is a bold yet vulnerable woman who knows what she wants, and Aidan is man enough to fulfill all her fantasies.
It is a quick hot erotic read that leaves you wanting more, and I hope Josh and Callum get their story soon.

Deliciously sexy with a smoldering hungry. The anticipation and drive these two have for each other and her wickedness is amazing.

Aidan is shocked to discover his new neighbour doesn’t seem to value her privacy, when it comes to her dates that is. At first he thinks its accidental but quickly realises she wants him to see what’s happening. This book is so hot I thought my kindle was going to burst into flames! Loved it. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I’m the kind of guy people avoid. Yeah, I’m harsh, but it’s the scar that runs from my chest to my face that isn’t doing me any favors. Doesn’t matter that it came at a huge price or that I’ve made something of myself since.Which is why, when a gorgeous woman moves in next door and isn’t at all intimidated by me, I feel like my luck is about to turn.
When I started reading I couldn't put it down. Ember Cole is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can't wait for the next book.

I wish that I were as sexually adventurous as Bianca. She knows what she needs and craves, she isn't a bit shy about asking for it. Aidan is smart enough to listen and obey. And make her obey.
