    OMG!!! Loved this book Roxy Sloane <3 Can't wait for book 2 :)

    'The Scene' is set in Miami the city of sin. This book is packed with hot sex, mystery, suspense, crime and danger. I couldn't put down my kindle till I finished...

    When Nikki is offered a job and a place to stay in Miami, she jumps at the chance. After her brother's death six months ago, she hasn't been able to settle. Not believing the circumstances and needing answers to what really happened....

    On her first day of her new job, working at a Luxury Resort she meets Xavier. A sexy billionaire that is stopping in one of the villas. She can't help but be attracted to him. He is way out of her league though.

    Her only mission is to get answers and solve the mystery of her brother's death. She can't get distracted...

    Will Nikki find out what happened to her brother?

    Can she get her answers without putting herself in danger?

    Can she resist Xavier?

    Ooooh that ending.

    But guess what? I am Miss Marple. I totally sussed it. Extra points for me.

    Xavier is smoking hot. I'm going to don a white server's outfit and deliver him an English breakfast muffin with raspberries on the side. I think he would appreciate that.

    Ok - I will level with you. This is a short novella. There can be no misconception. You will read it quickly. It will end before you expect and yes, the volumes together will be shamazing. Deal with it.

    Sex is sexy. There is intrigue. Speculate, guess, take a punt. See if you can beat my sleuthing skills. I have other theories that will no doubt be explored in part 2. Not sharing my theories yet or I might look like a right Charlie.

    And lobster. With butter sauce. A hint of garlic? Served with a cool crisp French white wine. Picpoul de pinet peut etre? You got me salivating and I will not be content until I get it.

    Miami - can I move there? Sexy men. Sexy girls. Yachts.

    If you know and read Roxy's books The Scene is as you would expect. It has her stamp!

    Final word, the appreciation between authors I love. Read the gubbins at the end and find a gem.

    Another serial from Roxy Sloane, In this, part 1, we see Nikki arriving in Miami to work on a hotel resort with her friend Heather. Nikki has another motive for working there though, she is determined to find answers as to what happened to her brother before his 'accidental death'.

    She immediately catches the eye of rich guest, Xavier who sets out to wine and dine her.

    It was OK, I found Xavier a bit cheesy with his pick up lines and I thought Nikki conveniently made friends very quickly with the right people who were involved in 'The Scene' that could help her find her answers.

    As expected, this ends on a cliffhanger. A very short read.

    Part one of 3, told in Nikki's POV.

    ARC gratefully received from the author in exchange for an honest review

    Reviewed in Canada on 7 March 2016
    Loved this book. This 3 part series keeps your interest right from the start. Loved the characters Xavier and Nikki. Nikki is heart broken over the death of her brother and feels she must investigate. while working at a hotel she meets an extremely handsome stranger which she can't resist. As time passes she starts to wonder if he had anything to do with her brothers death. Will Xavier actually be responsible for her brothers death or can she act on the strong feelings she is having for him?

    5.0 out of 5 stars a quick and delicious story that will make your temperature rise
    Reviewed in the United States on 15 July 2015
    Roxy is The Queen of Fast F@-ks and she shows us why she reigns supreme in The Scene. If you're new to the serial novella circuit, get in here and learn from the master.

    Overflowing with dirty talk, skinny dipping and decadence, The Scene is a quick and delicious story that will make your temperature rise.

    Would you like some suspense with your mind-blowing orgasms? Then you need to get in touch with The Scene and let Xavier work his magic fingers and tongue while traveling through the potential underbelly of a high class drug ring searching for the mystery of Nikki's brother's death.

    Nikki isn't prepared for the rush that was in store for her when she moved to Miami. While she's trying to find out what happened to her brother she's swept away by Xavier, a billionaire-type alleged playboy who has decided that she's the one he wants.

    I totally wasn't expecting that cliffhanger to happen in this book....so now I'm sort of at a loss as to how the story will turn. THIS IS A GOOD THING. I'm now ready for anything... please!

    Reviewed in the United States on 3 August 2015
    This is an intriguing and interesting story. Nicole/Nikki moves to Miami to try to find out what happened to her brother. He was killed in a car accident and she knows there has to be more to this story. She gets a job at this really nice and expensive resort. She moves in with a friend from her childhood. She does everything she can to find out the truth. At the resort, she meets Xavier. He's a guest at the resort and he's completely gorgeous. He's very interested in Nicole and tries to get her.

    Worth reading and looking forward to reading The Scene Part 2.
