Scary Hot by KD Robichaux is the story of Z and Kayan is part of the ‘Happy Ever Alpha’ series.
Their story parallels Wes and July in the book ‘Until July’ by Aurora Rose Reynolds but this is easily a standalone book. This follows the ‘Happy Ever Alpha’ series theme of instant love and attraction with that ‘Boom’ feel.
Enjoyed their story.
I’ve never read this author before, and because it was a crossover with ARR Until series, I definitely wanted to read this. I had so been waiting to get my hands on the story of Z and Kayan ever since I read about them in Until July, Kayan, being July’s best friend and vet office manager, and Z, Wes’ best friend and MC brother. There book was all I could’ve hoped for. It was sweet, and hot, a just a really good story.
I was beyond excited to see this couple get their story; I fell in love with the glimpses we got of them in Until July.
Kudos to the author for the timeline falling perfectly in line with Until July and bringing to life a couple I fell in love with. Z is utterly amazing and I loved how he wasn’t afraid to show how much he loved her. Kayan was funny and really enjoyed how she let out her submissive side when needed.
Scary Hot by K.D. Robichaux is part of the Until Series and is also book #6 in the Club Alias series. I have not read any previous books in this series and was fine reading this one. The book, Until July, by Aurora Rose Reynolds features Wes and July. This book is about both of their best friends, Z and Kayan. The timeline of both books runs simultaneously. You don’t need to have read Until July to be able to enjoy this.
July and Kayan have been best friends since childhood. Kayan had parents that were worried only about how high the social ladder they could climb. But behind closed doors, they had no room for their daughter. But her friendship with July got her through. They vowed early on that they wanted to take care of animals for a living. So July became a veterinarian and Kayan was her business partner and office manager. They were also prone to get in to trouble together, such as the night that they were on a particular adventure where they ran into July’s boyfriend and his best friend, Z. That’s the first time Kayan ever saw him and she was instantly smitten.
“He looks at me like he wants to devour me, like I’m his prey.”
Z and Wes are in a motorcycle club and also work at their garage. Z has never been in love, has never even thought of a woman in any kind of long term way, until he met Kayan. It was instant and it was strong, this pull he felt to her. Now all he has to do is keep her safe long enough for them to explore this thing that is between them.
I enjoyed this. Z was all the things I love in a Hero, sexy, all alpha/jealous/possessive/growly. There was one thing in the beginning that I never figured out or missed the explanation to. Spoiler: Why was Z climbing in Kayan’s window? That whole first scene didn’t make much sense to me.
As Z and Kayan get closer, she finds in his family what she was missing in hers all her life. That close, loving bond. But hurts from her past still bring back insecurities that keep her from trusting him completely. Z is in this, though, and will do whatever it takes to make sure his woman knows how much she is loved.
I am so happy and excited that Kayla wrote about Kayan and Z!!! If anyone could do them as much justice besides the queen of the book they first come from Of Until July by Aurora Rose Reynolds it would be Kayla!!! And every since I first met these two I wanted more from them and I’m so glad I got it!!! And buddy did Kayla bring them. It was sexy,sweet,hot and kinky!!! I loved how she was able to mixed Aurora’s Until world with her Club Alias world!! It’s always nice to see old characters again. And if you haven’t met any from either series I would recommend you do both!!! These are two of my favorite authors and they know how to bring all of the elements together to make the perfect book or novella. And this is one perfect novella!! – By Tina
This is the first book that I have read by this author and I absolutely loved it!! Even though I haven’t read all of the series that this crossover is from, it did not affect my reading experience at all! I was fully immersed from the moment Z called Kayan ‘Kitten’, like I full on melted into a puddle of goo!! Lord that man *fans self! And Kayan?!! Loved her sassiness, her relationship with her bestie, where they would back each other no matter what, her internal and external chat with herself about ‘scary hot’ had me laughing out loud. But the connection between Z and Kayan, that gave me ALL THE FEELS!!
I need to catch up with both these series’ now!!
OH MY GOD!!! From the moment I met Z and Kayan in Until July I have always wanted to know their story, and K.D. Robichaux absolutely did them justice in “Scary Hot”!! ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Like the whole Until Series…once you get started with “Scary Hot” you will not be able to stop. I don’t want to giveaway any spoilers but I never thought in a million years that it was Kayan who shot Z and July had to patch him up!! Ahhhhh!!! I was completely blown away! Also, K.D. Robichaux…girl you have given Z the sexiest name Eleazar!! Yea baby yea!!!
“Scary Hot” is everything you didn’t know you were ready for but damn does this book deliver!! I wish I could give this book more stars because a mere 5 stars does not even compare to how brilliantly K.D. Robichaux writes these characters…it’s like she’s in Aurora’s head but with her own dirty spin!! Love it!!
FINALLY we get Kayan & Z’s story! I’ve been wanting this since Until July – as I’m sure many fans of the Until series have as well. ; ) K.D. does them justice, brings their story to life by weaving in scenes from Until July & showing us what was happening from Kayan & Z’s POV. Great job!!
I loved that the SCARY HOT biker was so super sweet & has a heart as big as Texas. I loved seeing Kayan’s spark & sassy nature soften for her big biker. We get the hot & steamy, too, of course! Great quick read with a full story, still! : )
This book is about July’s best friend Kayan and West’s friend Z. Their story was easy, quick and candy apple sweet. Z and Kayan are of the charts hot. Grab this one for a fast fluffy story.
Scary Hot by K.D. Robichaux is a spin-off book (Until July, Aurora Rose Reynolds) for the Happily Ever Alpha world that is in this read – main couple Kayan and Z.
I know I have been dying to read Z and Kayan’s story ever since being introduced to them in Until July. And after KD Robichaux wrote their steamy wicked story, I can say that I am satisfied with their story.
We get how they met, what went down during their meet and that insta-love BOOM that strikes those couples who fall head over feet when they meet their fated mates… This novella has a bit of action, some drama and intrigue, with a good bit of heat and passion along with that romance and feels to make this one of my top favs in the Happily Ever Alpha series. Z and Kayan’s story really is packed full of plot, characters and a good size Club Alias crossover. My only minor issue is I wish this was a full size novel, it was so good.
My Rating: 4.7 stars ******
