Louise Bay

A Week in New York

Briar's Reviews

A Week In New York is an addicting, romantic read that will sweep you off your feet.

This book was FANTABULOUS! Yes, fantastic and fabulous all in one! It was full of romance, some super sexy and erotic scenes, and kept me hooked to every single word on every single page. 

Anna is trying to get over a nasty break-up, and in walks Ethan - a super hot, super rich man who can fulfill her every desire. But, she has rules! She isn't going to go into another relationship, since the last one didn't go to well. Yet, something builds between them - something hot and desirable. A Week in New York follows these characters and their antics while Anna is in New York (hence, the title).

The book is mega hot - there's sexy, erotic scenes that will get your heart racing! It's not the dirtiest or most R rated I've read, but it's still really hot! The down and dirty time is written well and will get you heated! There's more sex than romance, but it is a nice fit between these two characters. Their chemistry makes this sort of relationship work well, but that's because Louise Bay is a fantastic writer. She develops their relationship really well within the constraints of one short novel. I honestly can't wait to see how this pair develops in the future installments. 

I also really enjoyed the references throughout this novel - they are romantic yet nerdy references that really added to the story. It makes it feel more real than it is.

My only con is - WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT ENDING?! A cliffhanger?! Louise Bay wants to kill me! I HAVE to keep reading this series after she had me fall in love with these characters and want to know what happens to Anna and Ethan! What a jerk she is! Being a good writer and making me want more!

I would highly recommend this sexy novel to anyone who loves romance and erotica. It's also a short read and highly addicting, so if you're looking for a simple novel to read in one sitting - you've found it!

Five out of five stars! Holy heck, that was hot!

I read this book from the anthology "A Love Thing".

Louise Bay 

Anna Kirby is sick of dating. She's tired of heartbreak. Despite being smart, sexy, and funny, she's a magnet for men who don't deserve her. A week's vacation in New York is the ultimate distraction from her most recent break-up, as well as a great place to meet a stranger and have some summer fun. But to protect her still-bruised heart, fun comes with rules. There will be no sharing stories, no swapping numbers, and no real names. Just one night of uncomplicated fun. Super-successful serial seducer Ethan Scott has some rules of his own. He doesn't date, he doesn't stay the night, and he doesn't make any promises. It should be a match made in heaven. But rules are made to be broken. A Week in New York is the first in a series of three novellas.
