Summary
A collection of the three best-selling high-stakes stand-alones in the Extravagant series!
One Night Only
On the outside, I look innocent—blonde hair, bright smile, buttoned-up blouse.
But inside, I’m black lace and dirty dreams. And for the last year, I’ve been fighting my desires for the one man who’s totally off-limits—my bodyguard.
One Exquisite Touch
When the invitation arrived, it detailed the rules of the masquerade—no names, no identities.
I set one more—find a most wicked man for one night, the kind who'll bring me deliciously naughty pleasure.
Turns out, he's my rival, and he wants my business. And me.
My One Week Husband
He's my business partner, my good friend, and the man I've craved for years.
But I've resisted the sexy Brit. Then an opportunity comes along for us to snag the business deal of a lifetime.
The catch? We need to pretend we're married to pull off this high-stakes deal.

ONE NIGHT ONLY
I am loving the After Dark line by Lauren Blakely. This book is SO SERIOUSLY HOT!!! I loved both Callum and Ivy. They have chemistry that is off the charts! Ivy knows what she wants and Callum knows how to give it to her. But this book is more than just sexy, It has so much more going on. I really loved the steam and the love story too. Also, there is sort of two story lines going on near the end which has me jumping up and down. I won't say why but I will say I am beyond excited about where this book leads. Lauren is like super women, she can write an amazing, sweet & mature love story and also write a book as hot as this one. I might listen to it again right now, that is how much I loved this book!
The narration was perfection but that is no surprise. Joe Arden, Emma Wilder, Jacob Morgan and Teddy Hamilton, I mean does it get better than that!!!!
ONE EXQUISITE TOUCH
WOW this takes me back the to dirtier days of Lauren Blakely books and takes the award for hottest book yet!! I loved how open and unashamed these characters are about their kinks. Sage & Cole are competition at work but the chemistry between them is everything. I really enjoyed the work banter and I loved all the dirty talk and seriously sexy scenes. This book has a perfect balance of story and sex in my opinion. I'm a sucker for Manège so I knew this book would be for me. I also enjoyed the build up and sneak peeks into the next books in the After Dark books. I love a great Rom-Com but I need a little dark and dirty sometimes too and Lauren Blakely is giving me some of everything I need this year. Keep them coming!!!!
The narration was fun, Emma Wilder, Joe Arden, Shane East & Wesleigh Siobhan all did a good job.
MY ONE WEEKEND BOYFRIEND
Oh this was such a fun and steamy listen! Friends to Lovers is always fun because you get to really skip the getting to know you and go right to the getting to know the real you part. Daniel & Scarlett have hot chemistry from the beginning but add in the role playing and this was a very hot book. I felt like the pretending to be someone knew at each place along the way really added a fun and easy way for these two to try out all kinds of things before figuring out that they just need to be themselves. I loved that they are traveling to different places and meeting new people along the way. Perfect HEA with a fun treat at the end of the audiobook. I can't wait for The Virgin Rule Book, Nadia's story is going to be so much fun!
I loved the full cast and all the accents in this book. Shane and Vanessa were a lot of fun but when you add in Erin, Joe, Siiri, Victoria and James it just brings this book to a new level in my opinion.

Fire!!!
All I can say is this collection is H-O-T!!I’ve read and listened to each of them more than once and they get better each time! The narrators make these stories come to life on a whole new level!
One Night Only
Holy hotness!! Ivy and Callum set the pages on fire. Callum knows Ivy better than anyone and he wishes he knew her better, only he’s all business when it comes to protecting her. It’s his job after all. Callum is the star in all of Ivy’s secret fantasies. Get ready to watch what happens when a fantasy becomes a reality!
One Exquisite Touch
Sage and Cole’s story is beyond hot and sexy, just like Vegas! This enemies/competitors to lovers story is Lauren Blakely’s hottest one yet! These two may be off limits, but they make the perfect pair in business and in the bedroom. When both listening and reading, I found myself needing a fan and a cold glass of water, so be aware where you’re reading. Things may get too hot to handle!
My One Week Husband
My One Week Husband by Lauren Blakely is a friends to lovers romance that you will absolutely devour. We first met our leading man, Daniel, in One Exquisite Touch and I was ready for his story. I knew one day he’d find that one woman who was a game changer. Scarlett is a business partner with him and Cole. To help in the search for a new boutique hotel chain, they pretend to be newlyweds so they can really experience what these hotels have to offer. Lines are blurred when they both have true feelings. The past is painful for them both and has left them having a hard time with love. Daniels past was heartbreaking and Scarlett is just what he needs. This book was a sweet, sexy, and fun read that will ultimately put a smile on your face.

Wow! Three amazing stories all together!
One Night Only is another sexy addition to the Lauren Blakely After Dark books. Lauren's books always bring the sexy and fun, and these book are no different. They just give us more of the sexy. Ivy is a CEO who's trying to revamp her hotel and make it the next big thing. Callum is her bodyguard. He's supposed to be off limits, but she can't help the way she's fallen for him in the last year. Callum's job is to protect Ivy. Watch over her and never let anything happen to her. He can't do that if he's physically involved with her, so he doesn't let her get that close. Until one night when he sees desire in her eyes. Desire for something he knows he can give her. But he has to touch her first. Experience just him and Ivy. Then he needs to walk away and do his job. Ivy can't stop thinking about the one night she shared with Callum. She wants more, but she knows it probably won't happen. Callum finally realizes he can't stay away from her and he wants to give her the fantasy she's dying for. Him, her and his best friend, Stone. He's a sexy rockstar who would love nothing more than to help out his best friend. Just one night. The three of them together to give Ivy what she craves. This story is so hot! But it's more than just steamy and sexy. Ivy's job is demanding and she has to learn that she can have both the high powered job and be submissive to her man. Callum has to realize her can still keep the woman he wants safe, while he gives in to his feelings. One night of forbidden passion just fuels the connection between Ivy and Callum. Overall I loved it! It's a short, fast read full of heat and heart. I can't wait for Stone's story!
Audio: I feel like I say this a lot, but Joe and Emma did some of the best narration they have ever done. And Jacob really brought his A game (I smiled through his entire chapters.). I couldn’t get enough of this story or this narration. Lauren and these three narrators are a match made in heaven!
One Exquisite Touch is book one in The Extravagant series by the incredibly talented Lauren Blakely. This series is starting off with a bang. It's hot, sexy, a little sweet, emotional and did I say sexy? Sage is looking for something extra. More. She's not even sure what she wants until she meets him at a masquerade ball. The sexy masked stranger makes her body hum and her heart race. She wants to see him again and hold him to his promises, but she doesn't expect him to walk into her office a few days later. She's shocked that her new competition is the man who played her body. Cole Donovan. Owner of the new hotel on the Strip. Her rival. This can't he happening. How is she supposed to stop wanting him? She wants more. She needs more. Is it possible to fulfill your fantasies with your rival? Cole would recognize his stranger anywhere but he can't believe his luck when she turns out to be Sage Carmichael. A woman who he'll be fighting to win business in Vegas. He won't be deterred that easily thought. Rival or not, Sage is everything he's ever wanted in a woman and he's not going to be able to stay away from her. Oh my Lord! Cole is so off the charts sexy with his dark eyes, commanding presence, love of books and thoughtful ways. He's smart, handsome, caring and hot. Sage is beautiful, smart, dedicated and has been waiting for a man like Cole. Together they are on fire! In the bedroom and in business, they are the perfect match. I’m loving all the secondary characters and can't wait for their stories!
Audio: Not only is the book Lauren's sexiest yet, these narrators blew my mind with the hotness! Emma sounds the best I've ever heard and she takes Lauren's sexy words and gives them life with her confidence and sexiness. Joe and Shane are off the charts sexy as always, but they stepped it up for this one. If that's even possible!
Wesleigh is a new to me narrator and I enjoyed her voice.
My One Week Husband is Lauren Blakely's newest friends to lovers romance and it was so fantastic! She tells this story with her words as Scarlett and Daniel go on a journey through France as they discover each other and the beauty around them. Business partners can be lovers. Friends can be lovers. Sometimes you find the one in the person you were always hoping would be yours. I fell in love with Scarlett and Daniel, the places they visited, the people they met and the things they shared. Daniel has a painful past that he never shares with anyone. When he finds himself on a trip with his business partner, Scarlett, while they pretend to be married for one week, he realizes he wants to open up to her. Scarlett never imagined what happened to Daniel. Now that she knows his past, she understands him more. After spending time with him traveling around, being together in and out of bed, she knows she wants more. Can a one week fake relationship turn into the real thing? I love Daniel and Scarlett! They have so much heart and soul and they just get each other. It was beautiful to watch them fall for each other. They left me wanting to visit Monet's kitchen, listen to the violin and fall in love.
Audio: This audiobook is everything! Vanessa and Shane have never sounded better and add in the full cast, and it was perfection. The violin music literally made me cry and I loved every minute of it!

A collection you don't wanna miss!!
One Night Only
Wow, I don't know where to start. This short story of Ivy and Callum really packs a smoking hot punch. While being sexy AF, there's still a great story there about a successful business woman and her bodyguard. The addition of Stone was just a bonus! The narrators performance was just outstanding. Emma, Joe and Jacob were perfectly cast as Ivy, Callum and Stone. Joe seriously brought me to tears in one scene and this is NOT a book to cause tears. It was all in how he performed the scene that was so emotional to me.
One Exquisite Touch
Sage is a strong businesswoman running her hotel with her sister Ivy. Cole and Daniel are the new guys in town running a rival hotel. After a chance meeting Sage, Cole and even Daniel open their eyes to new possibilities and feelings. It's so much more than just an amazingly sexy story. It shows strong characters dealing with their own emotional issues and hang ups as well as being able to let their hair down and become someone else for a while.
The narration really amped up the absolute hotness of this book. Emma is the standout with her performance as Sage. Truly outstanding. She is so good at playing these strong and confident types of women, plus her male voices are just as hot as the guys themselves.
Joe and Shane were perfectly cast as Cole and Daniel. Who else can make whispering as sexy as these two can? Between the guys and Emma, I have no idea how I survived this book. It's easily one of the hottest books I've listened to in a while.
I really enjoyed the epilogues. Eliza's made me cry it was so perfect. Daniel's made me want more Daniel.
The sneak peak for How to Get Lucky was awesome! I don't think Joe could be any more excited about his and Lauren's upcoming book! I am as excited as Joe is!
My One Week Husband
I fell in love with Daniel when he appeared in One Exquisite Touch. Immediately I thought, I have to know more about this guy and wanted so much for his story to be told. This book was absolutely everything I wished for and more. It was playful, fun, serious and when they come together, it was positively thermonuclear. I really enjoyed Daniel and Scarlett's playful banter and role-playing. In between all of the fun and sex were some seriously deep underlying things that both of them had dealt with for years affecting personal relationships. I loved every wonderful, sexy and emotional moment of this story.
The audiobook performanes by Vanessa Edwin and Shane East were just absolutely magical. These actors have an amazing chemistry and they're one of my favorite narrator duos. I also cannot leave out all of the side character narrations of Erin Mallon, Joe Arden and Vanessa Mei as well as the new to me narrators Siiri Scott and James Joseph.

Book three -ruined narration
This compilation of four stories overall was well enjoyed. The narration of book one, two and four was spot on, and really made the story come to life. However, book 3 narrators ruined the series for me. The narrators were off. They were not in line with the story, they were so bad that I couldn’t get past it and couldn’t finish book 3 moving onto book 4. The Dr wile lead is an accomplished businesswoman and such should have better pronunciation. I’m not sure how the editors were not bothered with the narration in book 3. All four stories have intertwining characters, but take my advice and skip book 3 in the audible version.

Not what I expected
Be aware that the performances are terrific but the storylines W-A-Y past hot! I enjoy the genre but this collection, especially the second book were over the line to uncomfortable. I should have read the negative reviews prior to using a credit, but will not make that mistake in the future.

I honestly felt dirty after listening to this
I LOVE a good romance and happily ever after s but this series honestly should be titled soft porn….I honestly would not finish it if I didn’t spend my credits on it….greatly disappointed in it
