I was only going to the small town of Granite Falls to handle some family business. I was a timid virgin with a damaged heart when I arrived. What started as a date with a man who helped me when I had a flat tire quickly spiraled into something I never expected. Seven men who craved me. Seven men who wanted to take care of me, protect me, and provide me with everything I ever dreamed of. What I … I didn’t know at the time was that Granite Falls was filled with secrets and I was the key to unlocking them all.
Axe, the bad boy with a heart of gold.
Sheriff Jesse James, the peacekeeper who left my mouth watering when I first laid eyes on him.
Steve, his amazing brother — a small town mechanic with a smile that could melt my heart.
Major, an Army veteran who left everything in the desert, including a piece of his humanity.
Blue, the local bartender who could quench a whole lot more than just my thirst.
Luther, a preacher who put his faith in God, but lost his faith when his world fell apart.
Mayor Joe Danvers, a young politician trying to hold everything together.
Kelli’s Note: This is a steamy standalone novella with a HEA and no cheating! I’m a girl that likes wild and crazy romances, so that is exactly what you get from me. My heroes might be a little over-the-top with a touch of caveman and you’ll get some angst along the way, but I promise that the good parts will give you a plenty of reasons to read this all by yourself!

Small Town Seven intrigued me from the moment I read the blurb. Seven guys, who come from drastically different backgrounds all want to get involved with the same girl? I desperately wanted to know why.
The boys, Axe, a criminal (With a heart of gold? Can’t honestly say I saw this…). Sheriff Jesse James (God his name is annoying), his mechanic brother Steve, Major who is an army vet who works with Steve. Blue, the bartender. Luther a widowed preacher (His job made me very curious). And finally Mayor Joe Danvers, who is constantly called Mayor Danvers, and I honestly forgot his first name.
Our heroine Samantha, who is too stupid to live, comes to their tiny town to clear up some family stuff meets the guys and thinks they’re all pretty damn hot. When they propose their little plan to all live together and have sex and look after her, she’s hesitant because she’s a virgin, and what will people think?
Turns out, neither of those things matter.
*Spoiler*
Because a virgin can totally have sex with seven guys in one night (including anal) and be totally fine! Then do the same the next day! Gotta say that sounds so damn painful. And no one in the town cared, despite the fact that three of the guys are very prominent figures. Samantha is so cool with their ‘no love, just looking after you’ arrangement that she heads home to tell her dad, grab her stuff and then come back. While there, she gets so trashed that she knows she shouldn’t drive and does anyway, and of course she’s surprised when she’s caught and thrown in jail. None of that made sense, by the way, a lot of creative liberties seemed to be taken there. And then it was pretty much over, back with the guys and eating pie.
Now, aside from the plot, which was ridiculous, this was told in split POV. Everyone got a chapter. It pretty much alternated between Samantha and one of the men. But in the end, of the guys, only two got multiple chapters. Luther had two, and Axe had three. The rest had one each. So we never really got to know them or their motivations. And the only answer we got to why they wanted this arrangement, was that there were no young women in town. Which is ridiculous.
So if you’re wanting a book that is essentially porn, this is for you. But if you want some substance, and a romance that ends in an HEA (as advertised), don’t read this. Because there’s no happy ending, it’s an HFN ending at best, because there was no love, no romance, only sex. And that’s not a romance novel.

This book was hot. I laughed at the dynamics of it all. It was entertaining and the steamy scenes were real hot. The storyline in the book kept in captivated and The twist in the story gave it an edge. The characters were well developed. I was hooked.

This is one steaming story with an abundance of +18 scenes and even +21 scenes… There is, however, also a story line that is quite ok and the characters are also fun to read about. All in all quite a deliciously steamy story to read in an evening. I just hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

The good storyline and interesting characters kept my interest throughout the entire book! The book was enjoyable enough that I read it in one sitting!
This is my first read from this author. I thought this would be a ‘smut only’ kind of book. I love those books every once in awhile. This wasn’t really one of those books. But it also didn’t have much else. There isn’t much character development. I do think that opinion is definitely biased because my version of dirty smut books is VERY different from someone who is just starting off. I don’t have a problem with characters getting down and dirty two pages into the book. So this book is good but I’ve had a lot more in other books. I also didn’t like how the idea was proposed? It didn’t feel authentic and honestly I thought it was awkward. There are some spelling errors here and there too. I didn’t connect or really like any of the characters but I also don’t think it necessary or relevant. But, this book was hot and a quick fun read.
Overall: 2.5/5
