Power Play by Emily Cade

Power Play is a short Novella, Emily Cade’s writing is good the story develops quite fast and if full of hot passion and desire. I enjoyed Emily’s writing style and even though this was a short novel it really did make you want to read more.

Natalie is a busy career woman and knows she wants to get married and have children one day, but she has fantasies she would love to be fulfilled first. She ends up calling 1Nightstand Agency to help her dreams come true. She meets Ian and Todd who are best friends and love to have a ménage.

So too keep some of this review from too many spoilers all I can say is if you’re looking for a fast, enjoyable read check out Power Play by Emily Cade.

I have rated it a 3.5 star rating, the writing is good and come on who doesn’t want to read about two strong, handsome hockey players.

An 18 erotic novella that contains elements of ménage (MFM) .

This is my second encounter with a book that was created for Decadent Publishing’s 1Night Stand series and utilizes the services of Madame Eve: a clever background for novellas that are meant to serve as a fantasy fulfillment for just one night.

As an erotic novella, this book works on all fronts. Character development is not in the foreground, although having two male characters and using “he” makes for a bit of a confusing read. The characters are not experiencing great development or personal growth in a short story, but the appearance of Ian and Todd as two rather cocksure hockey jocks contrasted nicely with the self-assured and determined Natalie. Even when she has her moments of hesitation, they quickly move in to allay her fears and nervousness and all fulfill their fantasies in one night of steamy pleasure.

The writer has constructed a story that is part fantasy satisfaction and part realistically described action all set within the parameters set by Madame Eve’s agency. The end leaves us all breathless and waiting to see if this one night will, in fact, be enough.

I received an eBook copy from author for honest review for Full Moon Bites tour. I was not compensated for this review, and all conclusions are my own responsibility.

Can a one night stand with two hunky hockey players satisfy one woman's deepest fantasy?

Attorney Natalie Fritz has been set up on a date by her best friend TJ, using Madam Eve's 1 Night Stand dating service. This is TJ's payback for Natalie signing her up with the same service, which had turned out well for her. Natalie figures since the service was successful for TJ, she would give it a shot too, but changes the date request from one man to two men to fulfill a long held fantasy.

Professional hockey players and teammates Ian Zelenewich and Todd Korbel like to engage in threesomes where they can team up to pleasure a lady, while also enjoy watching the other in the act. TJ's boyfriend Scott had told them about Madam Eve's services, so they signed up to give it a try, but they want to keep their identities a secret so it doesn't hurt their reputations or their hockey team, The Montreal Magic.

When Natalie, Ian and Todd meet up at a Montreal hotel, all of their requirements for an ideal date are met and a sizzling chemistry is in the air. Can a one night stand fulfill Natalie's fantasy and will it be enough, or can two hot hockey players convince her to go into overtime and play some more?

Power Play is a sassy little erotic novella that is a quick enjoyable read. Written in the third person narrative, author Emily Cale weaves a passionately sexy tale about a one night stand between a threesome (one woman / two men) that will leave the reader wanting more. I really enjoyed the author's style of writing, she gradually builds the story from Natalie's awkward meeting with the guys in the hotel room, to Ian and Todd easing Natalie's hesitation and inhibitions enough to enjoy a night which would include an intensely steamy threesome. With three fun characters; quirky dialogue and enticingly exciting sexual interactions; Power Play is one heck of a juicy and sensual story that will satisfy your imagination!

Power Play is the second book in the Hat Trick Trilogy, but can be read as a stand alone story.

I absolutely loved it! Once I started I couldn’t stop until I finished it. If I had any complaint it would be that the story was too short. I want more. I was sorry that it ended there and I am hoping for another installment to continue the adventure. Alexis is a character I would love to know more about and I would love to delve a little deeper into Morgan as well. Right from the beginning I could feel her emotions. I understood her feelings about her mother and her disappointment in the food choices at the party. I enjoyed her ducking into the kitchen to see if she could find something more appetizing and boy did she! Morgan seems like a fun and creative guy and my guess is that he would turn up the heat in all kinds of situations. This was definitely a story I will be reading again and I would love to suggest to Ms. Cale that she continue Alexis’ adventures.

Favorite Quote: Grabbing her hand, he sucked her finger until no trace of the whipped cream remained. As his tongue swirled over her skin, working its way into the crevices, her breath quickened.… (mais)
