Unputdownable! I absolutely loved everything about this book and am so happy it is only the first in a series and there are many more to come. Ms. Ward’s unlimited imagination and incredible world-building compare to Tolkien and R.R. Martin. I imagine reading one of her stories invokes a similar feeling of wonder as it must have for people watching The Wizard Of Oz and experiencing technicolor for the first time.
I appreciate a strong female lead that isn’t whiny or too stupid to live and Layla Price fit the bill even though she was definitely entitled to whine and complain given the hand life had dealt her. I don’t want to give too much away as this is a book that must be experienced, but it has everything you could want in a great fantasy: secrets and lies, conspiracies, secret societies, alternate dimensions, danger, intrigue, dragons, shapeshifters, magic…need I go on?
Though this book is the first in a series it does not end in a cliffhanger, per se, but enough questions are left unanswered for book 2 to follow. I, for one, cannot wait! At this point I’m rooting for Dusk (Adrian knows what he did wrong) and I’m excited to see how Layla proceeds in the next installment with regard to her newfound power and the shocking truths she discovered at the end of book one.
This whole series is great!
The author spins a fantastical tale and brings you into an incredible new world. It didn’t hurt that a chunk of this story takes place in France near Versailles. I love a book with substance!
A must read…..the whole series! AAAAA+++++
Addicting
I can’t wait for the next book
Great book
The characters were built well and made the story more interesting. The 2 worlds were interesting how they merge at the hotel. Keeps you guessing who the heroine is going to pick. Read if you like dragons!
Nothing us what it seems. Kept reading to find out morw. Finished the book and bought the next one!
I love the caritures in this book. The store kept me turning the pages, it was hard to put down. I will read the sequels and look in to other books written by her. Like her style of writing.
Well worth your time…I couldn’t put the book down!
I loved this book. So much so that I am reading the entire series. Characters are well thought out and realistic. Sort of “Harry Potter” for adults. A new world to learn and conquer!!
Ava Ward was a new author choice for me and she did not disappoint! She paints a very vivid picture while she tells her story. I love the main characters and can’t wait to see how the various relationships form! Layla, the main female character, demonstrates relatable personality traits which helps the readers connect to her story. I have a feeling this series is about to HEAT UP!! Truly can’t wait to read what happens next
Oh where to start……Well I loved this whole series, I could not put it down.
The whole concept of the Red Letter Hotels is fantastic and unique. A hotel that caters to any needs of the elite supernatural community and that the courtesans are one of the higher ranking employees was a nice touch.
I think the world development of the series as a whole was particularly amazing. In the series it takes you to many places and each one is well developed that you can see it in your minds eye.
I did want to smack Adrian when I found out he tricked her and originally had not the greatest intentions. I absolutely loved that the author did not just have Layla forgive him just because of this mystical bond that he had to work for her and actually open up to win her love. Yes the bond was there pushing and pulling them together but it was not the sole thing to their relationship.
I did enjoy that each book focused on 1 of Layla’s men more so than the others so there was great details and background into each. And it was a great twist that her bff that she almost killed turned out to be a dragon…But that he did not end up as one of her final mates. I thought that was awesome. It was a twist I did not see coming.
All in all amazing series and would recommend over and over.
I fully enjoyed this book and all the characters in it. I wasn’t able to stop reading this until it ended.
My mind is blown by this breathtaking fantasy world that the author has created. Everything is what we see but also more. And that more is awesome. The heroine is a strong and beautiful character. There are lots of side characters that I keep wanting as well. Can’t wait to see how this story all plays out. This story has me from the very beginning. I am so excited for this series!
There is a young woman, who has got a PhD in International Relations and lives in Seattle. She applied for a position at the UN in Paris and didn’t get us, so she is still working as a bartender at a Restaurant in-town. On her night off there is an Art Exhibit that she has been wanting to go to. It has things from Morocco which is where her deceased grandmother lived and worked as a singer.
So she goes to this Art Exhibit where nothing is for sale, but she is enthralled by a wrist cuff bracelet and just kepps standing there and really enjoying it. Then a drop dead gorgeous guy walks in and also looks at the bracelet. He asked the lady who works there how much it is an she says it is not for sale. He takes a business card out writes a $ amount on the back and asks her to call the owner to see if he would sell it for this. She comes back and says yes he will and takes it out of the case. He then puts it on Lydia and said it was meant to be hers that it should bind with her. Obviously he is a billionaire. He asks her out to dinner and they go to the redtursnt she works at. He asks her to tell him something about her and she talks about her PhD in International Relations but hasn’t been able to find a job. He gives he a business card in cream with a big Red R with a crown around it and says you would be perfect for my exclusive hotel in Paris. She would be a perfect Hotel Concierge.
Lots of things happen before she finally agrees and when she gets there it is a very fancy upscale hotel but in a parallel universe. She makes several friends there and is falling in love with her boss, but he is not around much and won’t answer a bunch of questions she has.
I don’t want to say anything else even if it wouldn’t be a spoiler, it is so good you MUST READ it for yourself. Ava Ward did a great job. I will be getting the next one soon.
This is a great story with great characters. This story has great suspense. I didn’t want to put it down.
Ava Ward has given us so much more than just a steamy, raunchy, sexy novel in this her first book in the series, she has given us an opportunity to share the experience of the Red Letter Hotel where decadence, debauchery and anything with a sexual innuendo is allowed to happen with no holds barred. Layla Price had no idea what she was, she knew she was intelligent with a PHD to her name however she also knew that she was jobless and down on her luck when a stranger enters her life so mysteriously and changes this forever. Daring her to let go of all she knew and to plunge into a new job, a new life supposedly in Europe and become the woman she had always been destined to be. A thrilling ride from start to finish with beautiful characters who take us into an exciting fantasy world where the elite holiday side by side in peace and tolerance for one another with sex being the pivot around which the days and nights blend one into the next! I must admit to being hooked into this rich people’s world and am dying to get my hands on the next book in the series!!
Well written book with a great storyline that flows smoothly. The characters are well written and believable.
