Cara has spent her entire life as the good girl – the straight-A, straight-laced, good girl – and she’s tired of it.
When her roommate Meredith invites her to a private party, one that will earn her fifteen hundred dollars just to attend, she discovers a hidden world where society’s rules hold no sway, where sex is readily available under the privilege of anonymity and safety, and a mysterious … mysterious man wants to bring her dark side out to play.
Will Cara run and ignore the thrill the party brings her, or will she dive in head first to discover what she’s really capable of?
Note: This story includes a nice dose of tall, dark, dominant, and handsome, several scenes of hot sex with multiple partners, and a heaping dash of BDSM to top it all off. Knowing all of that, will you accept The Invitation?
EXTRAS: This edition includes the exclusive short ‘Ben’s Day’ and a sneak peak at Jennifer Bene’s upcoming novel ‘Security Binds Her’! Enjoy!

Cara was the good girl, the one who got straight A’s and did the right thing. When she’s invited to a club, she’s given a chance to push beyond her boundaries of what’s safe and comfortable. Saif and the other Doms were oh so sexy, and they took Cara beyond her wildest expectations, and showing her about the carnal pleasures she never knew about. It was a sensual, erotic read, and I loved it!
Fast delicious sexy read. Cara was invited to a party with the stipulation that she wouldn’t have to do anything even though she would be paid. Wonderful character development found the strait-laced good girl becoming adventurous in this delightful read. Sexy Saif and Ben are yummy and help Cara come out of her shell. I would love to see more of Cara and Saif and of course, Ben. I received an ARC and voluntarily left an honest review.
I loved this quick but steamy read. A simple invitation has Cara going from quiet and mousy to sexy and trembling. I may have been trembling with her. I’m somewhat glad it was a shorter book because I did not want to put it down. I would love to see more of these characters.
This book was hot! Cara is taken to a party by her roommate. She is a nice girl, who somehow was never satisfied by her boyfriends . This party will open up another whole new world to her, where she meets Saif. He will show her what behind the locked doors of lust and hedonistic desires. A fantastic story which is like Alice going down the hole. I volunteered to honestly review this boo
Cara was a good girl and student. Her roommate invited her to a party. Cara went and was very surprised to see sex everywhere and out in the open but it opened something inside her. Saif noticed her and wants. He invites her back. She goes and a whole world is opened to her and she loves it. Saif helps her get adjusted but he wants more from her. Cara doesn’t seem to mind. I think the beginning of something more. The story as a whole was an awakening for Cara. Some steamy scenes. Enjoyed very much.
Ms Bene at her hot decadent best!
This is the story of a nerdy, bored, insecure girl and the men who help her (and themselves) along the way to discovering her naughty side. She ends up anything but bored, a deliciously naughty pool of hot,messy goo and wanting more.
Ms. Bene is at her usual hot, decadent best in this short. Or better, these two shorts.
How much sizzle and promise for more can you fit into two nights of partying ?
A quick steamy shot of erotic romance. This book was full of surprises and the chemistry was chart topping. I loved that the FMC was brave enough to explore her desires and she was rewarded accordingly. Fun, hot and totally engaging. I liked having a lighter book from a favorite author.
This is one hot book, I love it. I must say it peeked my interest like Cara. I love how Cara opened up , it was a beautiful sight and explosion things to come. I love Saif seeing the little girl as he would say in Cara. Now she is willing to play and find her true self. I must say that little jealous strike he has was probably what made Cara fall even more for him.
Will Cara pass her interview for the job of a lifetime
Jennifer is one of my top ten authors and The Interview did not disappoint! Cara is a determined college student but when her roommate mentions a high paying job with her company, she can’t turn it down. But when she meets Saif, one of the owners, who wants to show her more, will she take the next step? You have to read to find out and won’t want to put the book down until you turn the last steamy page.
What a way for an inexperienced women to be introduce to BDSM, by an Invitation. Just loved this story. The chemistry between Cara and Saif is explosive. Enjoy
How many of us feel like Cara, that they are always the good girl doing what is expected. To then have the opportunity and the courage to break out of that mold and go to a party where anything goes is remarkable but oh so satisfying. This is a sexy, hot quick read that I would love to see more of these characters and see what happens to them. The bonus story of Ben and Krista was also fun and very hot.
A brilliant novella of exploration. Cara’s not boring and she’s going to prove it in the most decadent manner. I loved Cara’s openness, embracing her sexuality, and where her journey takes her. The very mysterious Saif, and his friend Ben, just added so much to Cara’s discovery of what she liked, what she wanted, what she can be. Great, delicious read from beginning to end.
I received a copy of this book. My honest review is voluntarily provided.
The Invitation was a hot and steamy quick read. I didn’t know what to expect from this book as I went in blind not having read the synopsis or any reviews. I really wanted to read a book written by this author before meeting her at a book signing event in a couple of months and chose this one, and I am glad I did.
I would have loved to have more of this story. I would have loved to see if something developed between Saif and Cara. You never know, maybe we will see more from the AL boys in the future….. I do hope so.
Not quite so much of a romance, but still a red-hot and very well written read
The Invitation isn’t a romance in the traditional sense of the word, though it does hint at future love and definitely ends on a HFN note. It’s the story of a complete innocent who wanders into the world of erotic love and BDSM. I’m a huge fan of Ms Bene, I always know that whatever I am reading by her will be well written, have interesting characters and have enough steam to heat a small city. This is a fairly short read, having once been part of an anthology, though it came with an additional story that is related to The Invitation.
Cara, possibly against her better judgement, agrees to attend a party with her flatmate. A party where she doesn’t have to do anything if she doesn’t want to, but where opportunities will be abundant.
I really liked Cara despite her going from Ms Prim-and-Proper to Slutty-Sue within the blink of an eye. She was being offered many a naughty, secret fantasy on a plate by several very hot guys – what woman in her right mind would turn that down? It felt more like erotica with a smidgen of romance on the side. Thankfully it was very tasteful and nicely written, however you want to label it. All the encounters have a menage element, though not all involve sex with both men.
At the first party Cara feels totally out of her depth until she is ‘rescued’ by the incredibly sexy and very mysterious Saif, the hero. There is an instant connection between the two and Cara is completely enthralled by him. It was difficult to really know the full extent of Saif’s interest for most of the book, as it was written entirely from Cara’s perspective. Most of their interactions were at one of two parties and involved a lot of sexual activity rather than conversation, which is why I wouldn’t label this a romance.
There is a scene in the story that some might consider cheating. Whilst I didn’t quite label it as such I did struggle with the heroine (view spoiler).
The bonus content was a scene from Ben’s perspective (Ben is Saif’s friend and co-owner of the sex party business). One of the things I really liked was the extra insight it gave me into how much Saif was smitten by Cara. It’s a massively fun read, incredibly hot and very NSFW. If BDSM, menage and sex with multiple partners isn’t your thing, then don’t read this. However, if like me, these tick the right boxes for you then this is a very entertaining and steamy read.
Wow a party to be invited to. this story is a heart pounding book that is very steamy and will take you on amazing ride of a bored collage student that is asked by her roomate to come join. come to find out the sweet girl is invited to the wrong party. this story will have you falling in all the right places to feel the need for more.. the book will have you hooked tell the very end..
It is going to be a short review. This was one smoking hot story. Also loved the short extra story
