Five fervent starts! An intoxicating, ardent read that will keep you turning pages.
WOW! Hands down ladies! Because Ms Victoria Blue penned a tempting novel, a sexy addition to the misadventures series. I was dying (literally and figuratively) to read Misadventures at City Hall from the moment it was announced the release date for this title. Since I read Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend, I was captivated by the witty and flawless writing of this talented author. And this time she worked her mind around the political scene making it forbidden and very alluring. She created an intense and luscious novel that blew my mind and made me crave more and more. She opened a window and let us see the other side of the coin, we are able to see a new face of Skye Delaney, who was introduced in Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend as Oliver’s best friends. This character holds a very special spot because Skye is as career driven as me, I found myself pretty identified with her. The only thing that I’m missing is the hot temptation aka Kyle Armstrong, that man is fire personified, ladies! And he knows it!
Despite all the sexy and hot times, there is an intense romance blooming like a delicate peony. The storyline unfolds smoothly in between the political scene, clouds of corruption and ambitious goals. In my opinion this book is a sinful symphony for every working and successful woman out there in the world. It is more than a simple romance. It is a delicious masterpiece. I suffered when I finished reading it because I didn’t want it to end but at the same time I devoured it like a ravenous bookworm. Each chapter called me and the words inside lulled me into a romance coma! Because who can resist a sexy and devoted man like Kyle Armstrong and a reformed bad girl who is almost maniac for political success like Skye? Not this girl.
Skye and Kyle’s story is like a competitive chess game where both have too much to lose and too much to win. Skye, the ambitious queen. Kyle, the knight in shining armour ready to sacrifice himself to save his queen. Both are right for each other in a passionate and tempting way! Sparks fly when they are together. The level of heat between those two is scorching hot, it’s more than plain chemistry. It is fervent attraction. It is rough romance. Their relationship was doomed from the beginning because it evolved from a scandalous affair that was too intense and full of foreign and new feelings for both of them. Together will discover new sensations and their priorities will chance. What they think was a one-time-deal will turn into something impossible to deny.
Kyle, oh my lord ladies! he is the perfect man for Skye, he accepts her with all her ambitions and flaws. He sees the real woman behind the cold exterior and he shows her how especial she is. He, like a knight in shining armour would sacrifice everything to be blessed by the woman who has change everything. He is charming but also a little bit arrogant, scratch that, he is very cheeky. That’s one of the things that pulled the right strings with Skye. His arrogance infuriated her and attracted her at the same time, crazy right?
Those two are out the charts. The game of hunter and prey took another meaning with these two! The sexual tension is hot with capital letter H. Skye and Kyle are a powerful couple.
Misadventures at City Hall is a must read. It flows effortless. It holds the romance and the intensity that you can’t help but get lost in it. It is an intoxicating, ardent read that will keep you turning pages. Damn it! I can’t wait to read more misadventures written by Victoria Blue.
Intense and Witty. The chemistry is off the charts explosive! Marvelously Written!
I would give this book alot more than five stars if I could. Misadventures At City Hall by Victoria Blue is a standalone as are all Misadventures.
Skye Delaney was introduced in Misadventures of A Book Boyfriend however you dont need to read Book Boyfriend first to know what’s going on.
Skye is confident, sexy and very career driven. She doesn’t have time to worry about a man at this point in her life, however while having dinner with her bestie Laura, Kyle inserts himself into their get together and Skye is a little unnerved by his presence dispute her best efforts not to show it. Skye pretends to not remember this hot as sin man she went to school with.
Kyle is cocky, confident, and very career driven as well. He has eyes that you could get lost, if you stared to long and he drips with sex appeal. He wants Skye and he is not about to give up so easily no matter how hard she tries to push him away. Their chemistry is so explosive and dynamic and very undeniable. Skye has worked to hard to get were she is and she is not about to let this man get in the way of her job, but can she deny herself this euphoria she feels with Kyle? Kyle seems more than willing to risk all to be with Skye, but can she do the same?
The push and pull of this dynamic duo will have you feeling euphoric through and through! Just when you think a Misadventures can’t get any better Mrs. Blue proves there is no limit to the greatness! Marvelously Written! A book with all the feels! I recommend this book to all. An Absolute must read.
All the emotions and all of the angst. This is one for a lesson in setting aside animosity and preconceived notions to let life come at you the way it is supposed to. Skye has a set path. Kyle has other ideas. When these two collide it is everything you hope for. Firey tempers, flashing heat and a power struggle.
Could you give up a life long goal for a man? How about giving up the man for that goal?
This couple is so perfect together and it takes one to sacrifice for the other to see it.
I love Victoria’s work and this one is such a fabulous story! It was a kicker to see our friends from Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend again too.
This steamy book follows Skye and Kyle. You may remember Skye from Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend by Victoria. I was excited to continue her story and Victoria did not disappoint. 5 stars all the way!!!! (You do not need to read Misadventures of a Book Boyfriend to enjoy this story)
Victoria Blue
I absolutely loved this book. The relationship between Skye& Kyle is so spicy, sexy, romantic. They have a connection like no other. Victoria out done her self with this one. A must read for sure.
I loved this Misadventure!!! I was super pumped for Skye’s story because I loved her in Misadventures of a Book Boyfriend!!! This book sort of follows that story but can definitely be read as a stand-alone becuase Victoria does an excellent job summerizing the background events to help the reader understand who the supporting characters were, like Bailey and Oliver! I appreciated seeing that as a reader! Skye is fierce, witty, and driven and those characteristics make her a perfect for a man like Kyle Armstrong. His sarcastic, easy going, and dominating character seems the perfect match for Skye. Victoria couldn’t have made two characters I love more!! I loved the realness of the story and also the intimate scenes. Alot of times you’ll see authors set the scene but then leave out all the real conversation, movements, and experiences two people share while in the bedroom together; but not Victoria and this was probably my favorite thing about the book! The human and real elements are present throughout the entire story. There is enough chemistry and dominance in Skye and Kyle’s story to need a fire extinguisher handy. You’ll be pleasently surprised to learn that stools can be a really intriguing piece of furniture too!! From beginning to end I was hooked and didn’t want to put this book down. I am really excited and hopeful to see more Misadventures from Victoria!
I knew when I read Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend, Victoria Blue’s first Misadventures book that I had to know Skye’s story. And in City Hall, Victoria didn’t disappoint me. She brought the banter, the heat, and going for what you want even when you don’t know it at first. I loved Oliver but I think Kyle Armstrong is definitely giving him a run for the newest book boyfriend in my heart.
All’s fair in love and politics. Skye was first introduced in Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend and now she has her own story to tell. City Hall is in an upheaval as the staff and other personnel have been arrested for abusing their power and Skye now has an opportunity to move up in the ranks or take another path and run for a position on the City Counsel. Once her decision is made, she enlists the aid of Bailey, her best friend Oliver’s girlfriend, to help her. However, while putting her plans into action she comes across a blast from her past, named Kyle. Kyle is a sexy, dominant alpha male who gives 1000 percent to go after what he wants….and that is Skye. Can these two make a relationship work in this arena? I loved this storyline and the witty writing style. From the get go, the reader is wrapped up in the drama as it unfolds. I hope that Ms. Blue has plans to continue this story as these characters can go the distance and there is definitely more that they can fall into. It can be read as a standalone but I recommend reading Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend to give you the back story to what is unfolding at the beginning along with meeting Bailey and Oliver. I highly recommend picking up this book! I volunteered to read an advance copy and all opinions are my own.
This book was freaking amazing omg I loved it 🙂 it’s so hot and steamy ! And the sex parts are fucking hot af Kyle and Skye is freaking amazing !
This book rocked! I am a huge fan of the misadventures series and I love all of Victoria’s books. She did not disappoint. This is a fun read and I loved the characters. This book is hilarious and entertaining. I look forward to Victoria’s next book.
Kyle and Skye sure do heat up the pages, this is a wonderful, sweet and sexy read and a must read. Ms. Blue hits it out of the park again with another adventure in the Misadventures series. This story will suck you in and keep you on your toes.
How do you sum up Kyle and Skye? Sexy, spicy and hot! Wow! Misadventures at City Hall is a must read. It sucks you in right from the start and you cannot put it down. I loved it!
What a great adventure we took with this story. Skye and Kyle know how to keep us on edge. I love their banter, oh my their banter just made me laugh. I love that she is a tough cookie, she doesn’t let anyone walk over her. I love how she resisted and resisted but when the tension gets to be too much, what’s a girl to do…send one little text!
Amazing job by Victoria Blue in keeping us glued to the pages, sizzling chemistry between the characters and a great story!
This book was just great! I love the Misadventures series and this one did not disappoint!
Saylor has always known what she wants. Politics! She has a long-range goal and she is working her way to it . . . until Kyle wants into her life. He’s handsome, sexy and in the way of her goals. You know what they, politics makes strange bedfellows.
I enjoyed the story, the banter and the ending!
If you know anything about the Misadventure series, you know the stories are quick, witty, insightful, hot and fun. Victoria Blue does not disappoint with Misadventures at City Hall.
Skye and Kyle may have shared a class in college, but being friends was not a part of that story. Flash forward to today and little did she expect him to sweep back into her surroundings especially when her world is falling apart at each corner. But of course he did. And the sparks are undeniable, even if the circumstances do not warrant them.
This story made me wonder, do people really know when they meet” the one”? Are people really strong enough to show their dedication and commitment to others without question? And most importantly, why do paparazzi exist…LOL
Fun story with a great ending. Nicely done Victoria Blue!
Misadventures at City Hall stars Skye Delaney, the best friend of Oliver from Book Boyfriend. You do not need to read Misadventures with a Book Boyfriend to read City Hall but you will have a better understanding of the characters if you do.
Skye’s behavior and attitude in Book Boyfriend made her not a favorite of mine and left me feeling annoyed. However, this book, her story really redeemed her for me. Skye has always planned to run for city manager but when a scandal opens up a seat on the City Council, she decides to take the chance and run. Skye is determined, driven, sarcastic and sassy which made me love her.
Just as she decides to run, in comes sexy, confident, egotistical Kyle. She wants nothing to do with him but he pushes for her to give him a chance. Well, more like convinces her with his charm. As much as Skye says no, she also feels pulled in by him.
Skye worries and starts to wonder whether being with Kyle will ruin her chances at City Hall and being taken seriously, especially when it’s announced Kyle is running for the same seat.
I am not a big fan of politics and at first, felt a little worried about it but Victoria did an amazing job with Skye’s story. Without going too deep, she brings up the reality of sexism that sadly affects many women in politics and how their personal lives are often used to clash with their professional lives. This affects Skye as she worked hard to get to where she is and having to choose between her dreams and a shot at love puts her in a difficult spot that shouldn’t be a problem in the first place.
Great writing, great story, steaming hot, and I give it 5 stars!
*ARC provided for an honest review*
This was such a fun and sexy book! one of my favorites out of the Misadventures series!
I love how each book in the misadventures series is different but some of the characters pop in from previous books. It gives a connection and elevates the book to another level. I enjoyed the plot and writing I couldn’t put this book down. You definitely need to add this book to your TBR you won’t be disappointed.
So it took a while to realize that this book is a continuation of Book Boyfriend. It was awesomely wonderful to revisit Oliver, Bailey and Skye. This story is about Skye and Kyle. I loved how Victoria Blue was able to captivate the ups and downs of office romance and mix it with careers. The best part was they were hot and sexy. I absolutely loved it and recommend it.
Skye and Kyle have awesome chemistry even though she hates to admit it because he was an arrogant guy in College. Once they kiss, the sparks fly. These two have a rocky start and she wants the relationship kept in the dark because she is running for office and doesn’t want her reputation ruined. I thought it ended a bit abruptly but the story was great.
