My review:

Well of course I loved this book. Nothing makes me happier than meeting a wonderful author and reading such a fantastic debut. I don’t know how she did it but she DID! Nolan Lennox was like my little hero! The name, come on so cute, after a baseball legend.

Reason for the love #1 is that Nolan was bullied! So for fans of The Real Housewives of Orange County TAKE notice Alexis, Nolan was bullied. Maybe reading the book will bring some awareness to the fact that girls are bitches. Me, well yeah I have been known to be a bitch too. Although I never bullied anyone. She took so much and even when she was down she was able to come back. Girls are evil and when the football star is studying with the unknown, well that makes drama.

Reason for love #2 is her resilient attitude.  I don’t know how many times I was yelling Nolan you rock! Her family was the glue that held her together. Her Mom and Dad were hard workers and they instilled values. I am sure my kids could take this as a lesson learned. Nolan starts to questions her upbringing and that shows me what a great story it was! If and when an author makes you yell at the book or character, it means it was GREAT!

Reason #3 Buck! I loved this man! I think him being Reed’s Dad was the best character placement. What is not to love about him? He treated Nolan so good and was the parent that serves as a great example. The way that Buck was with Nolan and her parents proves he is awesome! I have spoilers and I wont ruin anything, but believe me Buck is primo!

Reason #4 Reed. OK So we get a great author that makes you yell at the book. Reed has good and bad. Without Reed and his upbringing, Nolan would not have come across as good. So for the swoon and the devil I loved Reed too.

Reason #5 Learning and discovery! Nolan learns that her track skills are awesome and even when she feels betrayed and cheated on she still runs for the team. She works so hard to get the little things she has and I adored that part too.

Reed Johnson is good and bad. When Nolan made him think about how “real” she was, you could tell he had a change of heart. I know he cared so much about her and that made him stick up for her, love her and accept her. Being a football star was all the Johnson family knows. Reed’s Dad was the first, then his brother, now him. He loved the game and put pressure on himself to achieve greatness.

Waiting on the Sidelines was so good. Seriously a bright spot with so much real life lessons I want everyone to read it. I can’t say spoilers but look out for Nolan and Sean. I felt like I needed both of them to be together even though I know she didn’t care. There is passion for learning, getting good grades, sports and the occasional bad rebellious teen drama.

Undressed (#1 The Manhattanites)

Milan’s notorious playboy, Massimo Tittoni, seems to have everything–Lamborghinis, exotic women, palaces throughout Europe and business success. Ramping up his fabric company to go global with a new apparel brand, he ruthlessly stops supplying fabrics to the American client who inspired the collection. But once they meet, what’s he willing to give to get her in his bed?

Upper East Side designer Lex Easton will be damned if she’ll let an Italian stud muffin knock her down. So what if she named her favorite vibrator after him. With Fashion Week approaching, she’ll do whatever it takes to secure the fabrics she needs to become the next Diane von Furstenburg– even sleep with her rival. But when she arrives in Europe the paparazzi chronicles her every move and she finds herself in a situation never imagined. Lex’s Louboutins stilettos are dug in deep to win this war. All’s fair in love and fashion!

Avery Aster’s super-glossy debut novel is loaded with passionate escapism, pitting American ambition against Italian tradition. Erotic romance fans who appreciate extended sex scenes, witty banter and glamour mustn’t miss Undressed.

Undressed (#1 The Manhattanites)

To start off this is a series, yes I read book 1 and practically drooled waiting for book 2. The disclaimer says they can be stand alone books. NO they can’t please dont cheat yourself they MUST read read starting with book 1. This is a great steamy romance read. It has harsh language and some pretty descriptive sex scenes. In other words hurry and read it! When you do please stop and think of your friends. PLEASE don’t cheat them out of it too. Recommend it on Goodreads and leave a review on Amazon too.

This is the kind of series that is already exploding with word of mouth. I am not calling it as  one of those “if you read **** you will love it” this really has no comparison. I would say if you love romance and erotic romance this is a treat for your eyes!

The story of Lex Easton and Milan’s notorious playboy, Massimo Tittoni is wondeful. It is filled with fashion and lovely Manhattan references. When we begin we are introduced to Lex Easton of Easton Essentials. She is a well known designer and her mom Birdie is the wife of now deceased legend Eddie Easton. He was someone I will compare to Steven Tyler. I hope that doesn’t come out wrong I would say Gene Simmons but he did not want to get married. Well ok Eddie is a rocker and a fucker, so there!

A little error in money handling and communication lands Lex going to Italy to confront Massimo in person. When she gets to the Isle of Gerasoli the descriptions are rich with flavor. Yummo!

She wont go back to the Upper East Side without her fabric. Now the story kicks into high gear! Her friends will no doubt play a large role in the future books. I loved Vive Farnworth the daughter of a Jagermeister type liquor who is a lush. Then Taddy Brill;  get glam, get Brill, inc. Blake the gay bff who is a stud muffin and then Birdie who is Lex’s mom. It is filled with paparazzi and fashion. A MUST read, beach read, shut the fuck up and read sort of book! 

All’s fair in love and fashion!

What was the inspiration for Undressed?
Are you ready for Ellora’s Cave NEW series The Manhattanites? This star-studded cast is most aroused (wink) to share their stories with you. The idea for Undressed arrived during New York Fashion Week. Avery attended a show and thought—what if the fashion designer’s unique fabric was to no avail days prior to catwalk? And what if her supplier ceased fulfillment, to knock her line off?
Avery can tell you what The Manhattanites series lead diva Taddy Brill would say, “Holy Shiiit!” What about the heroine in Undressed, our fashion designer?
Avery coupled those what-ifs with a royal saga. Right then, the world watched Prince William marry Catherine Middleton. I reflected on the devotion his great-great-uncle, Edward, Duke of Windsor, shared for his Duchess, Wallis Simpson and wondered—would you give up your lifestyle for a once-in-a-lifetime love? And poof, Avery’s characters Prince Massimo Tittoni and Alexandra “Lex” Easton leaped into Avery’s creative prowess and, with anticipation, into your hearts. After reading Undressed be sure to join Taddy Brill’s St. Barth holiday with her Big Daddy in Unscrupulous. Enjoy!
