Drawn to him is a brilliant anthology of bitesized yummy reads!
I loved all of these books, some more than others, all told in dual povs and each gives you a good taste of the authors writing abilities if you haven't read their work before.
Each book roughly about 13/14 chapters inc Epilogue
1. Infatuation by Willow Winters
Young journalist Lila goes to an Alaskan island for an arranged interview by the magazine she works for with Alec Kulls one of the historic families on the island. The interview is on a subject of maintaining the island's traditions, its developments and change in times.
The beginning of the plot is mysterious, the place is mysterious and the man is mysterious and when Lila meets Alec she discovers their interview isn't by chance, he selected her with more than an interview in mind. This is an over the top insta love romance that I thought ended to abruptly with no definate hea.
2. The Billionaire's Beginning by M. Never
I loved this book,business man Ty falls for an ex business partners niece who has been in the forces. Simone has been burned in more ways than one and tries to run but there's no getting away from this determined Alpha.
"shes seduction wrapped in an enigmatic package. And if there's one thing I love its puzzles".
3. Doctor Dreamy by L.J. Shen
I love all things L.J Shen and Dr dreamy and his assistant didn't disappoint, its hot and steamy and a thermometer will be required.
4. Malfeasence by K. Webster
A Judge and a girl fleeing domestic violence. Malfeasance is an older man and younger woman read. Filled with hotness and good plot and second chances at love.
5. Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West
It's Jade West, I entered into this one thinking Blimey this is tame for jade but oh boy did it heat up. A young woman Emily who works as a library assistant and a famous model Kyle Jordan Prescott due to be actor. This is a second chance romance both characters had a thing in college and never let it go any further through insecurities both thinking they were out of each other league for different reasons. This is hot, hot hot!
6. Datenight by Isabella Starling
This was rape play, not my thing in a read but if you do like this sort of read it was sizzling hot.
7. Bad cop by A. Zavarelli"
A Zavarelli another of my fave authors. A second chance romance. I loved this one. Ginger returns to her home town after years away and the gangly teen she once loved is now sheriff and isn't to pleased about her return, she's the girl who got away she's the one who ruined him.
8. One Night By KL Kreig
Hot!!! A one night stand. Two people who can't move on from that night no one else compares, two people who used each other to forget their heartache, one is still wondering who the stranger was while the other knows exactly who she was, Bennett is Sable's brothers business partner and it's time to make a move.

{ARC Generously Provided by K. Webster}
If you didn't know this about me already, I am a HUGE fan of K. Webster. I was really lucky to win an arc of this anthology filled with some incredibly steamy novellas with guaranteed HEA’s! First off I want to give a moment’s praise to the beautiful cover!! WELL DONE! Now, I had only intended to read K. Webster’s story but then I saw the next one was by Jade West and her books have been blowing up my GR feeds for quite a while so I decided to read hers as well. I now understand why she has such a huge following!! I want to preface my reviews by stating these stories are for pure enjoyment. You aren’t going to read any Pulitzer prize winning material here but oh boy will these get your temperatures rising. You’re about to meet some sinfully seductive alphas who seem to have insatiable sexual appetites and excel in the art of dirty talk!!
”MALFEASANCE” by K. Webster
Malfeasance was an off the charts steamy May/December romance. The Hero is about thirty-one years older than the Heroine and yet the age difference was not in the least bit off putting. There was definitely a case of “insta-love” but let’s be honest, it’s the sexy times the couple has throughout this story that made it quite enjoyable.
Max is a fifty-two-year-old Judge, who has been a widower for several years. He’s remained celibate since his wife’s death. Taking care of his teenage daughters had been his main focus and the thought of getting romantically involved with another woman never crossed his mind until the night he ends up at a sex club with one of his buddies and lays eyes on a beautiful blonde waitress. There’s something familiar about her but he can’t place it and then it all clicks into place. He remembers that haunted look in her eyes when he spotted her in the back of his courtroom almost a year ago when he announced the “not guilty” verdict of her sadistic ex-boyfriend. Max knew at the time that this man deserved to be sent behind bars for the rest of his life and that the jury had chosen unwisely but there was nothing he could do. When he happens to come across the young damsel in distress in the back of the club at the hands of the psychotic ex, he quickly jumps into action and rescues her.
Dorian has spent the last year trying to get her life back on track. She’s been unsuccessful at keeping her whereabouts hidden from her ex and is more than relieved when the handsome Judge comes to her rescue. Max ends up taking her to his buddy's secluded cabin and while they spend the night there, they can feel an intense attraction igniting between them. Max battles with his conscience because of the huge age difference but Dorian is not in the least turned off by his age at all. Dorian thinks Max is one of the sexiest men she’s ever met.
Max ends up bringing Dorian to his place and helps her get a job as his intern. Things between the two heat up even more as they are practically spending every waking moment together. It doesn’t take very long before the two become physically intimate and once they give in to their desires it’s like the floodgates have opened and there isn’t a moment when they aren’t ripping off each other’s clothes and going at it.
The story had very little substance, but I did enjoy it a helluva lot!! There are very few times where I actually enjoy an “insta-love” romance but in this case, because I knew this was going to be a guilty pleasure read, I just allowed myself to appreciate the story for its pure entertainment value.
”FIFTH AVENUE BLUES” by Jade West
This was my first Jade West story. Oh, my!! This woman writes some of the filthiest smut I’ve ever read and damned if I didn’t enjoy it immensely. Kyle Prescott is a famous British actor who has major skills in the bedroom and one of the dirtiest sex talkers EVER!! Emily Foster is the shy and introverted Librarian who used to be classmates with Kyle back in High School. She had a huge crush on Kyle back then and they once shared a kiss at a party but she ran out on him thinking that he was drunk and would regret what happened once he sobered up. Emily had and still has very low self-esteem and couldn’t imagine someone like Kyle would ever have any interest in a girl who looked like her.
Now, years later, Kyle is back in town and he’s actually looking to spend some time with Emily. He has a shot at a big television series and needs her help running lines. Kyle is dyslexic and Emily was the only one who had successfully helped him in the past. When he asks her to help him again, Emily doesn’t hesitate to say yes and they soon wind up back in his hotel room. It only takes a matter of seconds before Kyle is unleashing his dirty talking skills on Emily and awakens a heated desire within her.
The sex is insanely dirty and H-O-T. Once they’ve had a taste of each other it seems neither of them can control their sexual appetites. A plethora of sex is to be had in this sexy, dirty, short story!! Oh, and there is one sugary sweet HEA as well!!
Another guilty pleasure read for this reviewer!!! I know I’ll be picking up another book by this author sometime soon!

This anthology was filled with so much deliciousness, I never wanted it to end. There's 7 novellas to be found here, and while I didn't get all of them yet, I did read a good majority and I was so hooked!
Bad Cop by A. Zavarelli- 5 STARS
This novella was, hands down, my absolute favorite in the collection. This was my introduction to this incredibly talented author, and I immediately binged myself on her entire backlist. She managed to pack so much feeling into a short story that had amazing character development and an emotional second chance romance.
A wild child that hasn't had an easy life, the boy from the wrong side of the tracks whose heart she broke now turned town sheriff and all the untold truths lost in the years that since passed. This story was incredible. Ginger and Gray were amazing together.
--------------------
DR. DREAMY by LJ SHEN- 4 STARS
Can this woman write a hero that I don't completely salivate over? Hell no! And I hope she never does.
This wasn't as angst ridden as her usual. But it was super sexy, ridiculously fun, and with a good dose of her signature alphahole. The heroine was sassy and gave as good as she got. And lemme tell you, she got PLENTY. Pun intended.
--------------------
ONE NIGHT by KL Kreig- 4 STARS
I adore KL Kreig's words. This was a deliciously sexy romance of a chance meeting and what was supposed to be just one night turned into something much more. We get a sexy, intense alpha. We get a sassy, take charge and snarky heroine. Put them together and you get a whole lot of sizzle. I loved it.
--------------------
Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West- 3.5 STARS
So...um. Wow. If ever there was a really well written porn script, this story was it. Holy hell. I mean HOLY HELL. My ovaries were sweating, man. If dirty (and I seriously mean DIRTY) talking men are your thing, meet your catnip. We're talking of the gaping holes, facials, and butt sex variety. It was freaking hot. But honest to gawd, it made this pervert feel like a prude at times, and if that's not a feat, I dunno what is. I love the concept of the shy, awkward girl finally getting the man of her dreams that happens to be the popular boy that she had a crush on in high school now turned successful actor. It was dirty. SO DIRTY. ALL OF THE DIRTY. It was downright filthy. And I kinda sorta maybe liked it. I think. My ovaries are still recovering.
--------------------
INFATUATION by Willow Winters- 2 STARS
I'm not really sure how I felt about this one. This was my first book by this author, and I already know I'll be reading more because I enjoyed her writing style. This novella, however, just didn't do anything for me. It was a sexy insta-love romance and if that's what you're craving, it'll certainly hit the spot. I was missing a connecting to either of the characters and found the development lacking for my personal tastes, so I struggled with connecting to the story. It wasn't bad. Just wasn't my favorite in the anthology either.

“What it is is a delicious foreplay that’s about to materialize and blow your fucking mind. Maybe not tonight. Maybe not even this week. But I’m watching you, Miss Martin. All the time. You fucking want me, and you’re going to get your way. Sooner than you think.

4.5 Sexy Novella Stars
*Edited to add my review of The Billionaires Beginning*
Whoop whoop!! There's something for everyone in this anthology! From mysterious businessmen living in rural Alaska to dirty talking doctors who take what(who) they want. The stories range from mysterious and enigmatic to taboo and down right erotic. Seriously, you can't wrong with this amazing collection.
Infatuation (Willow Winters) - Journey into the wilds of Alaska with a columnist on the hunt for a great story. Stay for the sexy and enigmatic businessman! Willow Winters pens her most intriguing and enigmatic story to date in Infatuation. It certainly left me wanting more.
Bad Cop (Ashleigh Zavarelli) - This bad cop can cuff me anytime! I thoroughly enjoyed this second chance romance featuring a tough as nail female lead and the dirty talking cop who tames her wild ways.
Doctor Dreamy (L. J. Shen) - Wow! If my kid's pediatrician was this smoking hot, I'd be banned from the doctor's office! This fun and flirty story features a man who unapologetically takes what (who) he wants. Trust me, I wasn't mad at him for being OTT and bossy! Loved it!
Malfeasance (K. Webster) - I didn't read The Wild since it wasn't on my radar, but I did read Malfeasance and this smoking hot little novella is the tits! No one write older man / younger woman OTT/taboo love quite like K. Webster. I loved this so hard. This Judge can rule over me any day of the week!
Date Night (Isabella Starling) - I can't even articulate my thoughts on this one. Where are emojis when I need them?! This story was erotic, thrilling, and absolutely unexpected. It's my first read from Isabella, so I didn't know what to expect. I'm certainly intrigued and can't wait to read more from her soon.
The Billionaires Beginning (M. Never) - M. Never just made my list of authors to 1-click. From Southern Nights, to Moto, to this sexy little number, I've been very impressed. The Billionaires Beginning is intriguing, emotional, and so sexy. It's a 5 star read! Loved it.
I can't stress enough that there's something from everyone in this bundle. The books range from flirty to down right erotic. They're each well written and fit the novella mold very well. For the most part, the stories don't feel rushed at all. They are entertaining and engaging. Highly Recommended!

This is a great book to take on holidays or to read over the weekend as it gives you a little bit of everything. Drama, mystery, suspense, comedy, taboo and of course lots of heat!!!!
Although I didn't like some of the stories as much as others, they were all enjoyable.
Infatuation - Willow Winters 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
This was my first taste of Willow Winters writing and from the first page she had dragged me into the alaskan wilderness with her descriptive style.
Lila is sent to a small alaskan island to interview the mysterious Alec Kulls and find out the secrets of his successful family. I loved the setting of this one but I found the pace a little slow for a novella when I got really into it it was over. The heat once these two got together was intense.
I liked all the mystery surrounding the island with the old traditions and love potion, I think this would make a great full length book.
The Billionaire's Beginning - M.Never 3.5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Ty Winters is a cocky super rich businessman, nothing impresses him anymore and his bored until he spots a lady at the bar his at. It looks like she doesn't have a care in the world. I envy her. It seemed all a little to insta for me but then there's a twist when after a soul crushing kiss Ty finally asks her name turns out she is part of a rival family, think romeo and juliet.
Simone served in the military as a medic she surfs, she volunteers at hospitals and helps charities. She is an all round 'good girl'. Simone got burned while on active duty and believes no one will every love her because of her scars.
Dr. Dreamy - L.J. Shen 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Savannah is a ditsy 22yr old vegetarian hippy styled girl who gets a temp job at a paediatrician’s office. Her boss Dr. Rhys Matthews is cocky, very rude and amazingly good looking women flock to bring their kids to see 'Dr. Dreamy'.
I really liked this one it was funny, light, fast paced and HOT. I think it was the doctors dismissive attitude and Savanna's ditsy ways that made it enjoyable.
I learnt a new word in this one 'Carbie'.
Malfeasance - K. Webster 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Judge/Max Rowe is 51 and has been dragged out to a mates sex club by his friends. Max has been a widow for 12 years and his friends want him end his dry spell and finally get over the loss of his wife. When a shy little blonde asks for their drink order the judge recognises her from a case and felt compelled to speak with her.
Dorian is 22 and on the run from her abusive ex who ruined her life, Max helps her escape from the club when her ex shows up. From that point Max is determined to keep Dorian safe and help her start a new life.
I really liked this one, it had a darker vibe with Dorian's ex chasing her. The age gap was massive but it was super steamy!!
Fifth Avenue Blues - Jade West 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
After a failed relationship Emily moved back to her hometown and into her parents house. She takes a job at the local library and her life is now boring but safe until Kyle Jordan Prescott her high school crush comes strutting into the library. Unlike Emily Kyle has not been leading a boring life, he is a famous model and soon to be TV star.
Kyle has come back for Emily's help with something but also to finish something that they started a long time ago.
Well this one was a little OTT but also a dirty little treat. I have to say Kyle's type of 'kink' is not for me personally, doesn't make it any less hotter to read though.
Datenight - Isabella Starling 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Wow, now that's the way to start a novella!!! Sure did grab my attention straight away.
Cleo has a kink that not many others have, it's dark and taboo. She goes online to live out this side of herself but how will she handle it when it all gets real?
Flynn has the same taboo kink as Cleo only his is the dominant role, from the very first time he sees Cleo's profile on a website he knows she is perfect for him.
This was a little dark and twisted and I really liked it. This was my first time reading this author and it definitely won't be my last.

Although I didn't like some of the stories as much as others, they were all enjoyable.
Infatuation - Willow Winters 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
This was my first taste of Willow Winters writing and from the first page she had dragged me into the alaskan wilderness with her descriptive style.
Lila is sent to a small alaskan island to interview the mysterious Alec Kulls and find out the secrets of his successful family. I loved the setting of this one but I found the pace a little slow for a novella when I got really into it it was over. The heat once these two got together was intense.
I liked all the mystery surrounding the island with the old traditions and love potion, I think this would make a great full length book.
The Billionaire's Beginning - M.Never 3.5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Ty Winters is a cocky super rich businessman, nothing impresses him anymore and his bored until he spots a lady at the bar his at. It looks like she doesn't have a care in the world. I envy her. It seemed all a little to insta for me but then there's a twist when after a soul crushing kiss Ty finally asks her name turns out she is part of a rival family, think romeo and juliet.
Simone served in the military as a medic she surfs, she volunteers at hospitals and helps charities. She is an all round 'good girl'. Simone got burned while on active duty and believes no one will every love her because of her scars.

Great cover on this one. It's hard when you have a collection of stories to have a cover that represents the entirety of the collection, but this one works very well. It has great composition and title work as well.
This turned out to be a bit of a mixed bag for me. There were three that knocked it out of the park and a couple that missed the mark completely. The rest fell somewhere in between. That's to be expected though when you go into reading a collection of short stories by very different authors. 
Infatuation -- Willow Winters -- 4 StarsI enjoyed this one a lot. Excellent writing and the story felt very mysterious and atmospheric. The pace was good. The sex scene was hot. The characters were likable. Since the story is left rather open ended, I am going to assume this is going to be a full-length book or a series (perhaps it already is??). I really hope so because I definitely want to read more about these brothers and the town.
The Billanaire's Begininning -- M. Never -- 2 StarsThis one was just OK for me. I didn't connect with either character, and I found the fact that Simone kept alluding to her "secret" and not just straight up telling the hero annoying as hell since it was drug out basically to the end. Like I said, just OK.
Doctor Dreamy -- L.J. Shen -- 4 StarsOMG, this book was a RIOT. I loved it. It was funny as hell. Well written and paced. The sex scenes were smokin'. I ADORED the heroine. The hero was an ass. A dirty talking smokin' hot one, but a BIT too cocky for me to warm 100% up to him. That said, he did grow on me by the end. My only other niggle was that he was technically still married when they get together and had they been separated for awhile I would have been fine, but he only basically broke up with his wife four months earlier, so I found myself a little turned off by that. Overall though it was a great read.
Malfeasance -- K. Webster -- 5 StarsMy favorite novella so far. No surprise there as K is one of my favorite authors. This had everything I love in a book. Way older dirty talking hot as hell hero (52) and a likable and feisty younger heroine (22). It was pretty much insta everything and low drama. The sex scenes were smokin' and plentiful. It was well written and well paced, and the plot was pretty fleshed out for such a short little story. Loved it!
Fifth Avenue Blues -- Jade West -- 2 StarsEh, this one was just OK for me. It was dirty as f@ck no doubt about that, and normally I am ALL over crude sex talk, but the "sluts" and the "destroy her holes" just didn't work for me in this one. It was like the sex scenes didn't match up with the characters and the plot. I am also not much of a fan of famous heroes because they are almost always skanky manwhores and Kyle was no different and honestly, I didn't find him likable at all. I also wasn't a fan of the heroine who went from an awkward, insecure doormat to a pornstar slut in 3.5 seconds. So ya, a bit of a miss this one.
Datenight -- Isabella Starling -- 5 StarsWOWZA was this one HOT. I honestly don't have much to say about this other than I LOVED it. It was well written and paced. The plot was interesting. The characters were likable. The sex scenes smokin'. Just a super enjoyable story that hit the mark perfectly.
Bad Cop -- A. Zavarelli -- 3 StarsI'm in a bit of a quandary over this one. I liked it, and I didn't. I thought the hero was a major immature douche for most of the story. I generally always have issues with characters that act all butthurt over things that happened YEARS earlier when they were teenagers, and the hero was BIG on holding onto that butthurt. And the way he expressed that was beyond childish for a guy in his late 20's and a sheriff (IMO). On top of that most of the towns people were also a bunch of assholes as well. That said, I ADORED the heroine. Even if I think she should have told the whole lot of them (and the hero) to go f@ck themselves. There is no denying it is a very well written and paced story. And the one sex scene was hot. So yeah, another mixed bag with this one.
One Night -- K.L. Kreig -- 5 StarsAwww, I LOVED this one. So much so I really wish it had been longer. It was super sweet and sexy. Well written and well paced. Relatively low angst and drama. The plot was interesting and like I said I wish it had been a full-length book. There wasn't a ton of side characters, but I hope Will is going to get his own book. And both main characters were very likable. Two thumbs up from yours truly.

Whoa!!!! What a collection of reads by these fantastic authors....
Delicious, some of them dark and dangerously thrilling, others exciting and action packed, and then some are mysteriously captivating...
I liked all the stories, some were close to my preference in style, tone and subject, but some were missing out on obtaining the right formula of the format rules of a novella (and I always say that is the hardest thing to fulfill in this format - making the content substantial in a limited format that simply excludes deeper characterisation and the plot itself) BUT having that in mind, I was absolutely pleasantly surprised by the very first story, so I'm gonna put the emphasis on that and the next two who came right after it, considering my preferences, the surprise factor and the thrill...( Infatuation by Willow Winters, Bad Cop by Ashleigh Zavarelli and Datenight by Isabella Starling)
1. Infatuation by Willow Winters
a young journalist Lila comes to an Alaska island for an arranged interview on a subject of maintaining the island's traditions and its prosper and development with the impact of the most influental family on the island - The Kulls.
Everything that surrounds her is covered in some mysterious haze, even before she's faced with the head of the family - Alec Kulls.
The physical attraction is undeniable and even though Lila is adamant to stay professional, the pull is so strong she barely has a common sense to stay focused on her task, inspite her initial decision to steer clear of men and relationships in general. Alec Kulls is a man she can't deny nor she wants to and he openly states the fact that he personally arranged this interview beforehand.
Lila is pulled into this mysterious haze even further as she gives in to the darkish pull of this mysterious tall, dark and handsome specimen. And she will nerver find out the real reason everything played out the way it has.
yeah, the story made me wanna find out more about Alec...hmmm, maybe Ms Winters can work smth with this idea...*wink*
2. The Billionaire's Beginning by M. Never
A seductive, modern day Romeo and Juliet tale in business rivalry
3. Doctor Dreamy by L.J. Shen
a forbidden steamy insta lust/romance between a hawt doctor, a domineering alpha and his young secretary
4. Malfeasence by K. Webster
a forbidden romance in a crime induced background, a older judge will do anything to protect ayounf woman of 22 from an abusive man to whose case he was involved with.
5. Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West
It's Jade West, people!!! Duh?! *wink*
6. Datenight by Isabella Starling
a taboo, dark fantasy turns into true love... Now this story was "it", i would also wish for it to be longer LOL
7. Bad cop by A. Zavarelli
A young woman comes back to her hometown for a new start after ten years and meets the ugly eyes and prejudice from the townies, but he is there also, now being a Sheriff, when he used to be her soulmate inspite the different backgrounds in status and wealth. She's trying to escape her bad relationship and he's trying to forget her, and yet that's the last thing he wants and needs to do.
Ashleigh Zavarelli, proved to me that she can equally deal with a full length novel's suspense and thrill and she deals with the same in a short format. I loved her novella Salacious abd this one is not ranking any lower. Bravo!
8. One night by K.L. Krieg
The title says it all. LOL
But no, seriously...it's hawt, raw and steamy as hell.
Loved it!

It was never just an interview.
One day she'll understand. Until then, I know she has feelings for me. And what I feel for her is real. Everything else be damned.

⭐⭐⭐⭐4 Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Whoah!! This was one little hot Anthology that had me fanning myself! Eight sexy stories that will have you panting for more? Yes please! Although I did enjoy some more than the others, this was still a great collection of some of the hottest stories I’ve ever read.
Malfeasance: K Webster
This author keeps bringing her A game in everything so it’s no surprise to me that she does in a short story as well. A well respected sexy older judge rescuing a young woman with an abusive past? I was reaching for the popcorn and wine because this was gooooooood!
Dr. Dreamy:L.J Shen
OK can someone please tell what this author drinks when she’s writing?!!! No one and I mean NO ONE, writes an a**hole quite like Leigh does and Dr. Dreamy was no exception. An explosive chemistry between a prominent pediatrician and the new assistant will have you wishing that this was a longer story. But Dr. Mathews wasn’t an easy guy at first and the things this man said will have your palms itching to smack him one minute, and have you losing your panties the next.
“Imagine how it’d feel when I titty-fuck you to oblivion when I go down on you when we sixty-nine in my McLaren. Ever been fucked in a one- point-five- million dollar car, Miss Martin?”
Do you see what I mean?! Someone just pregnant right there, I’m sure of it!
Infatuation: Willow Winters
I’m really praying that that this will turn into a full novel because I was hooked from the start! This was filled with a dark mystery of something more to come and I loved every minute of it. From the small town to the out of this world beliefs, Infatuation will leave you infatuated.
Fifth Avenue Blues: Jade West
I think we need to call the fire department because this was a five alarm, hot as hell, it makes no sense to even wear any panties,HOT!! A second chance romance with a sexy actor and an shy insecure librarian is what made this story feel different and relatable. I loved it and the epilogue was PERFECT!
Date Night: Isabela Starling
I have no words for this one. Hot doesn’t even begin to describe the amount of fire that was going through this book so I’m just gonna let this gif speak for me.
If you’re still wondering if you should read this Anthology, then you need to have your head examined. This is the perfect collection that will leave you more than satisfied with their stories.

Drawn to Him
truly is a collection of amazing novellas that are full of feels, angst, sex and good times! I’m a huge fan of anthologies but they’re not all winners. Sometimes you’ll find exceptional stories mixed in with ones that are a bit subpar. That was definitely NOT the case here. Each and every story was incredible on its own and together they made for one heck of an enjoyable time. Not only did I get to read some fantastic stories by several of the authors I love, but with this anthology I even discovered a new one.
Although I enjoyed each story in this collection, a few of them really stood out to me. Malfeasance by K. Webster tells the story of a Judge stepping up to protect a woman with no defences. The story lacked real substance but I enjoyed it just the same. There’s a significant age difference, but that just made the couple even hotter. And it was easy to ignore it amidst the drama of the plot and the intense chemistry between the characters. Doctor Dreamy by L.J. Shen was fun and steamy, raunchy and romantic in the most unromantic of ways. Savannah, who was also the narrator, cracked me up with her inner musings. Add to that the hot banter and every interaction she had with the incredibly sexy Dr. Matthews and I was left feeling desperate for this short story to magically turn into a full-length novel. Bad Cop by A. Zavarellli read more like a novel than a novella and made it feel like an added bonus. One Night Stand by K.L Kreig was the story of a one-night stand turning into forever and told with the same eloquence this author has shown in her full-length work.
Willow Winters, M. Never and Isabella Starling also shined with their contributions. Equal parts sexy and angsty, they delivered in ways that were unique to them. No less amazing than what I expected. What I’m extremely grateful for was my first read from Jade West. Her work has shown up in my newsfeed endlessly and I’ve added quite a few of her books to my TBR but just haven’t gotten the chance to read them. I thoroughly enjoyed having this experience. She is so dirty and I love it!
Seriously, this anthology has a story for everyone. If you’re a fan of romance and happily ever afters, then Drawn to Him is a must-have for your collection.

December 21, 2017Malfeasance K Webster - 3 stars
There are three stories that describe the HEA of Rowe family (two daughters and their father):
1. Ex-Rated Attraction about Olivia Rowe (daughter) and much older Miles Reynolds.
Olivia used to date Miles’ son, until she found out that he was cheating.
She was attracted to Miles, so she slept with him and she never regretted it. The book is hot. But honestly, the fact that Miles kept repeating that he was a villain, was getting in my nerves.
The only villain in the story was his son who first cheated his boyfriend with Olivia and then cheated Olivia with his boyfriend. Confusing? It is a messy story.
2. Crybaby about Sophia Rowe (daughter) and much older Drew Hamilton.
Chronologically the story takes place after Ex-Rated Attraction, but it was published before it. This is one of these books by K. Webster that I don’t know how to rate them. The writing is brilliant, but I still have problems with the girl’s age.
I would probably not have read it, if I knew that Sophia is under age. I mean I know that some 17 years old girls like older guys, but I still do not like it. I remember my best friend in highschool never dated anyone less than 30. Me on the other hand when I was 17, I thought that any guy over 22-23 is ancient.
Anyway, the story is heartbreaking, but Drew got in my nerves as well like his best friend Miles. How can you be an experienced physical therapist and not realizing that maybe there is something really wrong with your patient that has nothing to do with her accident? And how can you treat like that a really f@cked up 17 years old girl? What a jerk!
3. Malfeasance from Drawn to Him: A Romance Collection about Judge Max Rowe who is a bit over 50 and much younger Dorian.
I think that was my favorite from Rowe family. Max was a sweetheart, very supportive, patient, a genuine nice guy. He tried to raise alone his two daughters after his wife died by cancer and he was so lonely until he found love again. Dorian was running away by her violent ex and Judge Max and his friends help her to get rid of him. Super sweet and sexy story. The events happen during the same timeframe as the events by Crybaby.
Rowe family has HEAs with babies, weddings and happiness.

August 15, 2017A collection of 7 talented authors and yours truly featuring quick, steamy reads that will get your heart fluttering!
September 20, 2017
This is a great book to take on holidays or to read over the weekend as it gives you a little bit of everything. Drama, mystery, suspense, comedy, taboo and of course lots of heat!!!!
Although I didn't like some of the stories as much as others, they were all enjoyable.
Infatuation - Willow Winters 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
This was my first taste of Willow Winters writing and from the first page she had dragged me into the Alaskan wilderness with her descriptive style.
Lila is sent to a small Alaskan island to interview the mysterious Alec Kulls and find out the secrets of his successful family. I loved the setting of this one but I found the pace a little slow for a novella when I got really into it it was over. The heat once these two got together was intense.
I liked all the mystery surrounding the island with the old traditions and love potion, I think this would make a great full length book.
The Billionaire's Beginning - M.Never 3.5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Ty Winters is a cocky super rich businessman, nothing impresses him anymore and his bored until he spots a lady at the bar his at. It looks like she doesn't have a care in the world. I envy her. It seemed all a little to insta for me but then there's a twist when after a soul crushing kiss Ty finally asks her name turns out she is part of a rival family, think Romeo and Juliet.
Simone served in the military as a medic she surfs, she volunteers at hospitals and helps charities. She is an all round 'good girl'. Simone got burned while on active duty and believes no one will every love her because of her scars.
Dr. Dreamy - L.J. Shen 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Savannah is a ditsy 22yr old vegetarian hippy styled girl who gets a temp job at a paediatrician’s office. Her boss Dr. Rhys Matthews is cocky, very rude and amazingly good looking women flock to bring their kids to see 'Dr. Dreamy'.
I really liked this one it was funny, light, fast paced and HOT. I think it was the doctors dismissive attitude and Savanna's ditsy ways that made it enjoyable.
I learnt a new word in this one 'Carbie'.
Malfeasance - K. Webster 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Judge/Max Rowe is 51 and has been dragged out to a mates sex club by his friends. Max has been a widow for 12 years and his friends want him end his dry spell and finally get over the loss of his wife. When a shy little blonde asks for their drink order the judge recognises her from a case and felt compelled to speak with her.
Dorian is 22 and on the run from her abusive ex who ruined her life, Max helps her escape from the club when her ex shows up. From that point Max is determined to keep Dorian safe and help her start a new life.
I really liked this one, it had a darker vibe with Dorian's ex chasing her. The age gap was massive but it was super steamy!!
Fifth Avenue Blues - Jade West 4 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
After a failed relationship Emily moved back to her hometown and into her parents house. She takes a job at the local library and her life is now boring but safe until Kyle Jordan Prescott her high school crush comes strutting into the library. Unlike Emily Kyle has not been leading a boring life, he is a famous model and soon to be TV star.
Kyle has come back for Emily's help with something but also to finish something that they started a long time ago.
Well this one was a little OTT but also a dirty little treat. I have to say Kyle's type of 'kink' is not for me personally, doesn't make it any less hotter to read though.
Datenight - Isabella Starling 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
Wow, now that's the way to start a novella!!! Sure did grab my attention straight away.
Cleo has a kink that not many others have, it's dark and taboo. She goes online to live out this side of herself but how will she handle it when it all gets real?
Flynn has the same taboo kink as Cleo only his is the dominant role, from the very first time he sees Cleo's profile on a website he knows she is perfect for him.
This was a little dark and twisted and I really liked it. This was my first time reading this author and it definitely won't be my last.
Although I didn't like some of the stories as much as others, they were all enjoyable.

Review for Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West:
Dear God! This novella sucked me in! Jade West could write a book about pencils and I would read it!
What a fast paced, spicy and sweet story. Kyle and Emily! What a pair!!!
What happens when the guy you were in love with in school comes back to your hometown? Only now, he is a famous actor and you are the nerdy librarian.
What does Kyle really want when he shows up at Emily 's work? Read to find out!!!!
Make sure to turn the AC on full blast while you read this. It was HOT! So good, I wish it was longer!!!
*I will be reading more from this anthology soon! So many favorite authors in this one! Eeek!*

Bad Cop by A. Zavarelli
Fantastic read. I was not expecting things and I'm True A. Zavarelli fashion, she turns has you blind, not knowing what's coming until it hits you. This book was sexy and moving at the same time. Terrific book.
Infatuation by Willow Winters
I need more of this! Plain and simple. I loved every moment of this novella and am like a junkie craving more of this story. Who doesn't love an alpha sexy wealthy man who wants to keep you as his forever?

ARC provided in exchange for an honest review
Infatuation - Willow Winters - 5 Stars
"But I dream of him. Of climbing through the forest and standing at the edge."
I really loved Infatuation, it set the bar high for the collection with fantastic, descriptive writing. It was mysterious and sexy, with two characters I'd really like to get to know more about. It's short, it's intriguing, and it ends in a really unique, open ended way. I want more.
The Billionaire's Beginning - M. Never - 4 Stars
"The simple touch is enough to generate more heat than an inferno though. Our attraction burns bright."
I didn't expect to like this one, I went into it with low expectations, because I really dislike any books with the word billionaire or millionaire in it. Then I met the characters and the sweet, over-the-top infatuation of Ty and I was hooked. It featured a really positive message, a topic not often discussed in books, and a romantic, fast-paced storyline I really enjoyed.
Doctor Dreamy - L.J. Shen - 4 Stars
"'The pessimism around here is intoxicating,' I breathe out."
I didn't see this one coming from L.J. Shen, but boy did I enjoy it. The heroine is sassy, she's got attitude for days, and she definitely needs that when dealing with the doctor. Doctor Rhys Matthews is a jerk, but Savannah seems fit for the job. Not only is it hilarious, but it's hot as hell too. They have a push and pull between them, the boss-employee role is one way, but their connection is something else. It was entertaining, it was smutty, and it was a really enjoyable read.
Malfeasance - K. Webster - 5 Stars
"Virile.
Strong.
Sexy.
Addictive."
K. Webster never fails to hit it out of the park. Handsome, older man and a young woman who needs just a little bit of rescuing. Malfeasance was packed with action, insta-love, and insatiable sexual appetites. I can't even say more, just that I really liked it, a lot!
Fifth Avenue Blues - Jade West - 3 Stars
"'Make it worth my while,' she says. 'Please.'"
I have to hand it to Jade West, she managed to fit what she does best into the very short Fifth Avenue Blues just perfectly. It's dirty and sexy, but personally it missed the boat for me. I was expecting more sweet, sexy insta-love stories, but I suppose I should've known better. I really liked the female lead, but Kyle wasn't my favorite.
Datenight - Isabella Starling - 3 Stars
My rating comes down to personal preference for the type of romance I read; I would not have selected this on my own, however I cannot deny that it was well written, engaging, and had excellent character development.
Bad Cop - A. Zavarelli - 4 Stars
It took me a while to get into Bad Cop, but then things got interesting and I was so wrapped up in the story I had to read it without stopping. It's an incredibly fleshed out story for how short it is, with the characters having known each other in the past. I could see the town, the characters, and every past and present event that led to Justice and Ginger finally finding each other.
One Night - K.L. Kreig - 5 Stars
Seductive and sexy, One Night is a perfect short from K.L. Kreig. It was everything I expect from her writing, with a chance meeting, a sexy one-night, and the delicious promise of something more. The hero is an alpha, the heroine is full of life and snark, and the chemistry between them is explosive.

My rating comes down to personal preference for the type of romance I read; I would not have selected this on my own, however I cannot deny that it was well written, engaging, and had excellent character development.
Bad Cop - A. Zavarelli - 4 Stars
It took me a while to get into Bad Cop, but then things got interesting and I was so wrapped up in the story I had to read it without stopping. It's an incredibly fleshed out story for how short it is, with the characters having known each other in the past. I could see the town, the characters, and every past and present event that led to Justice and Ginger finally finding each other.
One Night - K.L. Kreig - 5 Stars
Seductive and sexy, One Night is a perfect short from K.L. Kreig. It was everything I expect from her writing, with a chance meeting, a sexy one-night, and the delicious promise of something more. The hero is an alpha, the heroine is full of life and snark, and the chemistry between them is explosive.

I received an ARC and was super excited to get so many novella length stories from so many of my favorite authors!
I will admit some of them weren't exactly what I usually read but found myself liking them all the same.
A. Zavarelli is an amazing author and she contributes a story so unlike her mafia style series. She writes about a small town cop and once popular, now outsider, hair dresser. I love a good hate to lovers story and this did not disappoint.
She burned him bad when they were younger so at first when we were reading from his pov, I hated her. But it's worth sticking it out for the explanation.
I would definitely recommend each of these stories!

4.5 STARS for Malfeasance by K.Webster-
Absolutely loved it, what a hot, fast paced books. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
3 STARS for Bad Cop by A.Zavarelli-
Was a little disappointed with this one, wasn't a fan of the H, and it definitely needed an epilogue.

5 stars for Malfeasance by K. Webster
I really enjoyed a book it is short but so much in such a short book if you like older, hot, male then this book is for you I loved Max! K knows how to write these short taboo stories that have you hooked from the start. The story had me turning the pages to find out what will happen so much hotness between Max and Dorian (fans self) ha ha. As the story goes on you do seem to forget the age between them a short sweet with some drama. Erotic story and I loved it.
I will leave a review for each book as I read them.

5 ☆ Malfeasance by K. Webster -
Author, K. Webster had me at the momemt Judge Rowe tugged on his tie. Ladies, that was like the second sentence! I was immediately drawn to his demeanor and vibe the oozed from the pages. This was an incredible short read that had me hopping from the couch to find a more quiet place to read. One sitting is all it took to read this contribution. Malfeasance was full of heat, passion and epic portions of desire. Older, hot, authoritative male and younger female romance taken to a new height and gloriously executed with a great finishing touch. No doubt, I highly recommend it!
5 ☆ Doctor Dreamy by L.J. Shen -
Dr. Rhys Matthews may seem cold, but he is nothing shy of hot to the touch! Author, L.J. Shen brought her characters to justice and gripped me by the hair (um, heart) and planted quite the vision in this dreamy, heartthrob read. The story flowed with a building anticipation and was completed with a satisfying epilogue. I will indeed confirm again, yes (insert a half dozen exclamation marks).. I highly recommend this multi-author romance read.
5 ☆ Bad Cop by A. Zavarelli -
Justice Gray grew from "burger boy" into a smuldering, ex-military town Sheriff. Everything was going good until "she" came back. A. Zavarelli did an impeccable job with this story of hers. She added heat, suspense and one heck of a plot. From beginning to end, I sat there reading in awe at how this story finessed me to my very core. LOVED it!
5 ☆ One Night by K.L. Kreig -
One night is all it took to lure two into a magical night. A few years later, it all comes to light and K.L. Kreig did a stunning job releasing a story that enthralled me as a reader. Beautifully rendered and carried out!
A great read, but would have loved to have read a snipit of a closure to One Night. I recommend One Night as it was a "butterflies in the belly," seductive quick read. I definitely wanted more than one night with this gem!
4 ☆ Infatuation by Willow Winters -
Alec Kulls is a species in itself - alpha and dominant, but also lovestruck and beautiful. Lila is totally relatable. Shy and a hopeless love/romantic. I wanted nothing, but the best for her. The author did a great job luring me into her world and wanting to be a part of her story, to know and feel her characters. I did just that. Great story and felt like I wanted to be there, firsthand. I wish there was more, an epilogue or some sort of conclusion and resolve to the plot. What Willow Winters did bring was a beautiful story, though.
4 ☆ The Billionaire's Beginning by M. Never-
Compared to the friction casted between Romeo and Juliet, The Billionaire's Beginning was as gallant. Brief story of lover's and coupled with a brilliant military backstory made M. Never's contribution a wonderful addition. It made me anticipate an outcome and thrive on the author's words. I enjoyed the unveiling of truth and insecurities as this read made me feel the love through the pages.
4.5 ☆ Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West -
Fifth Avenue Blues had different elements to the story thay made it a great quick read. I was surprised at how much heat was emitting fron this story. Author, Jade West did not shy or hold back which is a blessing in itself with her writing. You can't read this on the subway or with any potential over the shoulder peeper's unless you're into that sort of thing. (wink wink) This is a perfect "wine & cozy" night in kind of read that will surely pink your cheeks as you read this sedictive yet second chase contribution. Not the standard second chance, Fifth Avenue Blues is in a category of its own.
4.5 ☆ Datenight by Isabella Starling -
Datenight is a dark novella that is nothing shy of SEXY! Just.. WOW! Be advised that there may be some triggers in this contribution and proceed with caution. Now, if you do not have triggers.... get to reading because the author does a fantastic job making naughty things sound so deliciously good.
I have deeply enjoyed being submerged in this romance collaboration. It is fun, naughty and filled with hot alpha males written by several talented authors that cleary know how to suck in their readers.
I highly recommend Drawn to Him to fellow readers. This was an amazing mix of authors and they have each impressed me with their individual stories! I was DRAWN ro HIM... all 8!
After reading all contributions in Drawn to Him, my accumulative rating is 4.625 Stars. I am rounding that to a solid 5 Stars due to the fact that I could not quit this book and each novella got to me in it's own way - simply owning me into a bookish dimension that I yearned to delve into with no desire to come out of.
8 authors - 8 stories - 8 book boyfriends you won't forget!

This was a great collection of some sexy quick little stories with a lot of my favorite authors. My favorite was M. Never The Billionaires Beginning, which was a great twist on a classic. Isabella Starling Date Night, it was just as dark as her full length novels and wasn't lacking in anything. I also couldn't get enough of LJ Shens Doctor Dreamy, after reading that I want a new doctor lol.

A great collection of novellas from some of the best authors in romance right now. I read K Webster's story Malfeasance and absolutely loved it. Judge was so alpha, and such a protector. SWOON, as per usual.
I also read M. Never's story, The Billionaires Beginning, and really enjoyed it. It was short, but packed with emotion and heat. Anyone who read her book Trinity will enjoy the characters in this story.
All in all... if you like instaLOVE or instaLUST, then I would highly recommend checking this anthology out!

Rating for the anthology overall
4 Stars
Normally I wouldn't review an anthology but this one had my interest as there's a few authors in there I love and I can be a sucker for an insta love book if it's written well. This collection certainly didn't disappoint and a couple of the stories I would love to see in full length novels or even in a series. All the stories are extremely well written and have a beginning and an end. If you like insta love and steamy passion then I urge you to one click this collection of hotness.
Infatuation by Willow Winters
4 Stars
I found this story fascinating more than anything. At first I thought it was too detailed but then as the story goes on and the twists start appearing you see that the detail was needed. Alec and Lila are mysterious but lovable characters and I really need to know more of their story. Overall a very enjoyable and very mysterious read and I hope we see more of this one.
A Billionaires Beginning by M Never
4.5 Stars
I loved this little story it was filled with sizzling chemistry between the two characters. Ty and Simone have that instant connection that draws them to each other but Simone is reluctant and won't act on it because of a secret she hides. Then there is the fact their families hate each other so they have lots of barriers to overcome. Ty is relentless though and he will fight to the death for the woman that has consumed his mind. Their story left me feeling inspired that true love will conquer all.
Doctor Dreamy by LJ Shen
4 Stars
Dr Rhys Matthews aka Dr Dreamy arrives at his clinic to find his secretary has already left and the temp Savannah Martin has more than made herself at home. They instantly have an attraction to each other but there's difficult circumstances to overcome as specially as his soon to be Ex wife works as a partner in the clinic. The attraction between these 2 is hot and so is the doctors filthy mouth. There's a couple of secrets he's with holding though and so it twists the story around and makes the story more angsty. A definite must read and it will leave you wanting more.
Malfeasance by K. Webster
5 Stars
Awwww I so wanted more of Max and Dorian. It's not often we find a good story with an older male lead. Although Dorian is a lot younger they were just perfect for each other. I know many will question the age gap in this one but tbh in my opinion love conquers all no matter what the circumstances. I'm not going to rehash the story in this so all you need to know is that it has some dark subject matter, it's angsty, it's sweet and it's extremely hot in places and I hope you loved it as much as I did.
Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West
4 Stars
I have no idea what to say about this tale except from if you like fast paced, extremely dirty and a hot alpha male loving the boring librarian then your going to love this one! Emily and Kyle are full of surprises and have total split personalities between every day life and in the bedroom. It's enough to leave you panting for more.
Datenight by Isabella Starling
3.5 Stars
I'm not sure how I feel about this one, there was something missing. I love dark reads but I kinda felt that this one was a little off for me. The third character in the plot line I didn't feel was needed and he abruptly disappeared without a fight or more of an explanation. However take my own personal feelings away and you have a story that dark read lovers will love.
Bad Cop by A Zavarelli
4 Stars
This book is set in a sleepy town where the 2 main characters return to at separate times years after they first left. Ginger left on not so good terms so when she returns to open her new salon the town gossips are feeding the rumour mill. Justice returned to the town 2 years earlier after serving in the military and is now the towns sheriff. They both had a thing going back in their school days but Ginger treated him like dirt in front of her friends back then and he could never understand why. So when Gingers salon starts being vandalised and her mobile home broken into, will Justice help Ginger and be able to keep his feelings at bay? This was a sweet small town story that the majority of readers will love. It has a few twists thrown in that will keep the reader entertained. The only thing missing for me was more of an epilogue and explanation of the aftermath.
One Night by KL Kreig
5 Stars
This by far has to be my favourite of the collection. Bennett Montgomery is all sorts of alpha hot. He could have any woman he wants but he isn't to scared to claim back the woman who left him mesmerised after a one night stand a few years earlier. Saine Campbell is a strong willed woman. Years earlier a one night stand at her cousins wedding saved her but she sneaked away in the middle of the night and it's a regret that's haunted her because no other man compares. So when she finally realises her new boss is that man it's game on. Can these two save each other again?
I loved this story! It had the feel good factor to it and had me pining for more of these characters. It was off the charts with the characters chemistry which in turn made the atmosphere insanely steamy hot when they were together. I really need more of their story and that of the side characters so I'm hoping KL Kreig turns this into a full length series.

So....I. Can't. Even.... I was blessed with this ARC in exchange for an honest review & truly was DYING to read this as it has almost allllllllll my favs in ONE FREAKING BOOK! Seriously Willow Winters, L.J. Shen, A. Zav, and K. Webster? Ah-mazing, beautiful, talented, women who take me on fantastical journeys and often break me -I'm talking SHATTER me with their tales, only to put me back together by the end. Then add in M. Never, Jade West, Isabella Starling, and KL Kreig? What in the actual....my mind couldn't handle all the awesomeness that this compilation was.
This kicks off with Willow's story-Infatuation. I am obsessed with her as a reader (totally devoured all she has written) but this story? Next. Level. When an author steps outside her norm? Wonderful things pour out like liquid gold. This gem takes place in Alaska, and was so well described it felt like I was in the bracing winds of the North as I read...this story...so beautiful and haunting...best start to a novel ev-ah! I will also touch specifically on LJ's story -Doctor Dreamy. She is the maestro for quirky sassy strong women, hilarious banter, and hoooooooot bad boys. I am also a LJ junkie having read all she has now, and waiting for my next fix;) But working in the field, I generally do not read hospital romance ever, lol. But it's LJ so I dived in & it did NOT disappoint. She took a hot doc and made him EVERYTHING! And Savannah, "I'm shamelessly snorting him like he is 20gms of Colombian cocaine." Loved this character!
All of these stories were so different, each one complimenting the next, each one like an amazing gift to unwrap! If I could give this 1,000 stars-it would be done! This is my new dream team, and *fingers crossed* they will write more collections in the future!
