From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kristen Proby comes a new story in her Fusion series… Chase MacKenzie is not the man for Maura Jenkins. A self-proclaimed life-long bachelor, and unapologetic about his distaste for monogamy, a woman would have to be a masochist to want to fall into Chase’s bed. And Maura is no masochist.Chase has one strict rule: no strings attached. Which is … strings attached. Which is fine with Maura because she doesn’t even really like Chase. He’s arrogant, cocky, and let’s not forget bossy. But when he aims that crooked grin at her, she goes weak in the knees. Not that she has any intentions of falling for his charms.
Definitely not.
Well, maybe just once…
Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you’ll enjoy each one as much as we do.

A quick and steamy novella with all the feels! Chase and Maura have more in common than they think, if only they could stop undressing each other long enough to actually have a conversation, lol. I enjoyed the banter between these two, especially the things they’d find to use as an excuse to see one another again. A great addition to the Fusion series and the audiobook was beautifully done with dual narrators, bringing the characters to life and inviting the reader to experience the story even more!

Well this was a sexy and fun enemies to lovers tale. I always love anything Kristen Proby writes and this was no different.
I thought No Reservations was a great addition to the Fusion Series. This is a novella so it will only take you a couple hour to devour this gem. It is a complete standalone and told in Dual POV. You don’t have to read the Fusion Series before enjoying this story. But I think it is a good idea to get the full experience of these characters. Plus you do see some of the Fusion characters in this story
In this book we follow the story of Chase and Maura. Chase is Mac’s brother (from Blush For You) and Maura is a friend of Kat’s (Kat is Mac’s wife and co-owner of Seduction) Kat has decided she is going to set up Maura….little does Maura know it is with her brother – in – law Chase. But what Kat doesn’t know is that they already know each other and to say they aren’t friendly is an understatement. I will say I loved their banter/bickering or as they said “foreplay” 😉 And the sexual chemistry these two had was OFF THE CHARTS!!! talk about kindle melting. I enjoyed getting to know these characters. They truly were meant for each other.
I also liked seeing Kat and Mac in this story. It was fun seeing them again.
I would recommend this story to everyone. It is a fun and sexy read that you won’t be able to put down. I loved that even though this is a novella and a fairly quick read, I didn’t feel like it was missing anything. We get just enough of everything for this story to feel complete. But don’t take my word for it….Read this book for yourself and see how great of a read this is!!!
I love every single book by Kristen Proby. Her characters are real and charasmatic! Maura and Chase have a love/hate relationship at first but soon realize their feelings for each other but both are scared for the future. It’s a brilliant and quick read, but so worth it!
Wow this was hot!!!
I really enjoyed this book. But I knew I would. It’s hard for me not to like this authors books. This story was great. I was dying to get more of Chase Mac’s bother. We got a lil of him in Kat and Mac’s book Blush For Me which was a brilliant book. So get more of Chase was exciting.
Maura is a great character. She’s very independent. She does have her family around her but she is happy with life. Maura is a teacher and really enjoys what She does. Her best friend Tommy means a lot to her. Tommy is great I really liked him. So does have some rules she tries to stick to in her life like she doesn’t date or do sleep overs but otherwise life is great. Until a certain man with sexy eyes gets under her skin.
Chase is really sexy I like him a lot. He knows what he wants it mite not be what every man wants but he owns it. Chase does have problems finding woman and he is known for it. He does date and he makes himself clear on these fact before hand. He just wants to enjoy life. He enjoys working with his brother doin Wine tours which has become sucessful. So Chase life as been pretty good to him. There as been a few ups and downs but he deals with it. But when he finally gets his hands on Maura things start to change. Whatever Maura does to him can’t get enough of her.
This book was so good. I just wish it was longer. I luv all the characters in this series you can’t help but luv them. It was great the way Chase and Maura met and how they got together. They made a perfect couple they were so suited. It just took them a while to work this out. But how they worked it out was hot and steamy. I really like these two together. I would highly recommend this book I couldn’t put it down once I started. It’s a short read with a great story and characters.
Steamy, but I just didn’t really connect with either character. Their banter was great. Lots of people will absolutely love this book, but I’m not one of them. This was hard for me to write because I loved the other books in this series and totally connected with them. Dual point of view. No cliffhanger.
This was a hot book. Don’t get me wrong; I’ve read all of Kristen Proby’s books, and they’re all hot, but this one was smoking! Lots of chemistry between Chase and Maura (I love those names!!), and the sex was spectacular! I’m not always a fan of novellas for the reason that so often the love is too instant, but with the chemistry and attraction that Maura and Chase had, it really didn’t feel so instantaneous.
I loved this book!
I love the Fusion series brought to you by no other, Kristen Proby! I knew Chase needed a story and I am so happy that it is here with the 1001 Dark Nights family!
Oh boy where do I start with all the sexiness floating through my head now that I just finished the book! I loved Chase and Maura. I mean who does not love a heroine that likes to love them and leave them, but still has class? She does it all and tries so hard to stay away from Chase.
I enjoyed this Novella and every sexy detail that we get with these characters. Kat and Max make an appearance and I was excited to revisit Fusion. If you are looking for a short and very hot Novella, No Reservations is you one stop shop! Chase is after my heart and I will be happy to keep him there!
Chase Mackenzie is a ladies man through and through, he doesn’t do relationships, feelings, or love… that is until he meets the one woman who is different from the rest, the one who makes him want to be a better man… a one woman kind of man.
The moment Maura Jenkins learns that Chase Mackenzie is her blind date she is ready to bail, she’s heard the stories about him and has no intentions of being the next. But then is a amazing chemistry brewing between them that neither expected, and neither is quite ready to walk away from… so they agree on a strings free night… but then one night turns to two!
No Reservations is a scintillating little tale that is certain to rock readers world and leave them highly satisfied! This was quite an enthralling read, I felt an immediate pull between the characters, their chemistry was very evident from their first meeting and continued to escalate throughout the pages… they had my tablet overheating!! I really love this series, with each new addition I am left in awe of Ms. Proby’s literary talents, her crafty story lines, and eccentric characters have taken me on some of my all time favorite literary escapes!! Highly recommend it’s sure to keep you completely captivated from start to finish!!
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this title.
