I listened to the audio version of this book. This was a pretty short, very hot book. I was going to say it was a friends to lovers trope, but Erica (Laney) and Jackson were already lovers. They had been for some time whenever one of them needed it. It was a strange relationship. It was made even stranger by the fact that Laney was dating someone else and he had just proposed even knowing Laney’s relationship with Jackson. He was apparently okay with the woman he was dating sleeping with someone else while he was also sleeping with her. If you can get past that, it’s simply a hot, hot story in which Laney and Jackson were great together
My favorite part of the book was the part where Jackson was looking downstream for their clothes wearing only socks and boots. It created quite a picture in my mind.
I was given a complimentary copy of this audiobook. All thoughts are my own.
Best friends since they were kids. Friends with benefits since high school. What will it take for Jackson & Erica to realize there’s more to their relationship than they think.
I am loving this series! This is the third book in the Wild Boys After Dark series, but each can be read as a standalone, but you will not want to, I promise. Once you read one of them, you are going to love it so much, you are going to want to read them all. In this one, a common phrase comes to mind, You don’t know what you have, until you are about to lose it. Jackson and Erica a.k.a. Laney, have been best friends, but it is also with benefits, since they were in high school, and that relationship is off the scale hot and steamy, but they are not just with each other. What happens when they might have to give up this relationship? It is a great story that puts you right there with them. I did not want to stop reading this book. Thank goodness there is a book 4 in this series.
This novella is a best friends to lovers to happily-ever-after. Jackson and Laney have been best friends and sometimes lovers for years. When Laney is asked for her hand in marriage by her current boyfriends it finally wakes these two up to what they really want. The past relationship with these two is already established so it is easy to see them falling into the permanent love with each other. This novella is quick, dirty, emotional and fun to read.
*I received this free book from the author and am leaving my honest opinion*

Jackson had a problem. Laney was his best friend. Laney was his occasional booty-call. Laney was his camping partner. Laney was about to be married. Or is she?
I enjoyed the story for the quick read that it was but wanted more of the story. Jackson was a male with male tendencies. He was also lying to himself. Laney was a woman that knew what she wanted but was willing to settle for something that would just be getting by. To be the best of friends they missed the mark on communication.
Of all the Wild Boys in this first part of the series, Jackson’s story was a let down. It was sexy and a bit hot, but for me I did not feel connected to Jackson or Laney. They were just a stop-gap filler.
Paul Woodson was on performance. He brought to life the story that was short and for me simple. He gave the story the extra.
Recommend as part of the Wild Boys After Dark series to stay up on each brother life.
I listened to this book. The narration was good. I was surprised at the length of the audiobook. It seemed to be over fairly quickly.
It was an OK read. I did like the premise. I liked both Jackson and Laney. I did think Laney was a little intense, but that seemed to be right up Jackson’s alley. They were a true match. I did like the way they seemed to know each other so well, and we’re so comfortable together.
This book felt like a rush through their relationship. I’m glad that there was not a ton of angst, and they moved through the difficult parts pretty quickly.
I do wish that Laney’s conversation with Brandon had been written in to the book. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall for that one. I also wish there had been more written about Brandon and Laney’s aging interaction. You only got to have a vague idea about Brandon from Laney’s perspective, not any actual engagement of them as a couple
It was an OK listen. A little over 3 hours. The first two books seemed to be longer with more detail.
This is Jackson and Laney (Erica)’s story. They have been best friends and friends with benefits since high school. They have dated other people and slept with other people while still sleeping with one another.
Erica’s boyfriend of nine months decides to purpose for her birthday and she decides she needs to think about and by thinking about it she goes to sleep with Jackson and goes camping with him.
I really loved these two. They had so much chemistry that it was laughable Laney was in a relationship with someone else.
I highly recommend this series.
I enjoyed this one and had it playing while driving which let me set the cruise and handle the traffic…Jackson and Laney have had a friends with benefits relationship for years and they rely on each other to be there for their special needs that only each other provide but when Laney receives a marriage proposal from her current boyfriend all bets are off. Will this be the catalyst to wake them up to what they really have? This was a good one!
The authors forward expresses the erotic nature of this series and it was point on with hotness in this installment. This was actually a very quick, hot & sexy read. I would say this was the hottest story of this series so far. Laney and Jackson were very sexy together. This couple had been friends with benefits since high school. It’s hard to believe they would be able to function in any capacity with no commitments to one another, and having flings with others all the time, but a proposal brought everything back to where it should have been. No inhibitions in this couple, for sure.
The ending was a bit abrupt to me, but that’s probably because we’ll hear more about them in upcoming books. The narrator was great again and I loved hearing his voice throughout the story. Perfect for Jackson’s character. So, another win for this author.
This third addition to the Wild Boys After Dark is a hot, friends to lovers romance. Jackson and Laney are close friends with smoking hot benefits, no strings and no relationships. But Laney does have a sweet man, Bryce, who she dates. When Bryce proposes before Laney leaves with Jackson on their annual camping trip, it changes everything. I really enjoyed Jackson and Laney’s reflection on their history while out in the wild. You can feel their strong connection, explosive chemistry, and their love making is so passionate. But the proposal hangs heavy over them both, and this crossroads could change everything.
I enjoyed Paul Woodson’s narration. His voice is smooth yet expressive, setting each scene beautifully, and bringing these characters to life, making this quick listen, totally captivating.
Jackson Wild and Erica Lane have been best friends forever. They have one rule; friends with benefits and free to see other people. They know each other by heart , every single inch of their body, every crevices of their minds but can they live like that forever ? Hot , Steamy , full on sex drive story that revolves around friendship , lust and love. Quick read that will melt your heart and panties !
