Lucky # Sevyn

Erotic Love Language

by BriAnn Danae

Acts of service.

That’s my love language. Especially when the effort matched their words. But, I’ve had the worst luck with men. While I wasn’t necessarily looking for a man, that all changed when an unexpected knock came to my door.

E’Lyjah Gates proved that there were still some real men out here. A man like him who didn’t have to be told what to do or how to make love to my body. He handled me with care, making me feel like I had really lucked up.

Acts of service are Sevyn’s love language and Elijah has no problem putting action behind his words to show her he was serious about makin’ her his lady. “Like a good neighbor, Elijah was there!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 My guy showed up and showed TF out. He let Sevyn know all of her wishes were his command. I am really enjoying this series. I love how supportive and down this group of friends are for each other. Nothing says I love you like encouraging one another’s foolishness. 🥰

Ya'll I don't know what BriAnn Danae is doing to my poor soul....these book are HOT!

Lucky # Sevyn is the third book in the Erotic Love Language series. I would definitely recommend reading the previous two books in the series before diving into this one. It follows Sevyn who is content creator and her neighbor Elyjah. It's clear that the two have chemistry, but have ultimately refrained from exploring anything beyond that until they exchange numbers. The two run into each other at a bar and the rest is history. These are quick, fun, and spicy reads. I'm really enjoying Danae as a writer and I can't wait to dive into the rest of the series.

Alexa Play Neighbors Know My Name!!!

First let me say I love this friend circle. They all support one another and encourage the right type of foolishness. 🤣 Whew if we all could have a neighbor like E’Lyjah! I like that he knew what he wanted but allowed Sevyn to set the appointment up that he gladly accepted. Neither one of them played no games and stood on business. I’m eager to continue this series. BriAnn I’m locked in! 😏

Lucky number Sevyn hit big when her next door neighbor E’lyjah comes sniffing behind her. They have always seen each other in passing but this particular time hits different when he’s invited into her home.

These two did not waste anytime making things official. He did not need to be told that Sevyn’s love language was acts of service. He so effortlessly put action behind his words and was ready to deliver the world to her on a silver platter. We stan a man that can walk it like he talk it!

This group of friends have really stolen my heart with the way they support each other and ride hard for each other. The group text chats are easily becoming my favorite part of the series. Now that Genai, Ember and Sevyn have found love I can’t wait to see who’s about to snatch up Kema and Mikki!

Lucky 7 indeed!

BriAnn did it again with another super cute and really nasty short! I love this! I hope Kema gets with the realtor guy!

Opposites Attract

Sevyn finally got her man and he just so happened to be her fine azz neighbor E'Lyjah. These two had seen each other in passing and it was clear that an underlying attraction was there. These two were each other's opposite with Sevyn being loud and sociable while E'Lyjah had a quiet chill demeanor. Oh let me not forget dominant 🤭 I appreciated his ability to lead with both words and actions. This short gave us a lot in a few pages.

SN: I always love the touches of KC in BriAnn's stories 🩵

3.75 ⭐️ Sevyn is next up in finding love by way of her neighbor E’Lijah. The banter between the two was funny & cute.

When the girls come together on these group messages I die because they are so funny! lol

4⭐️- Hmmm 🤔 maybe I’m an Acts of Service girl. I really enjoyed E’lyjah and Sevyn’s relationship 🙌🏼

[Toya Davis-Stokley · Rating 4 out of 5]

Awww Sevyn found her one! E'lyjah, her neighbor, had been checking her out for a minute. One chance meeting at a bar, changed everything! I loved how intentional they both were, no games, just get to the love part! Quick read but gave just what I needed. 👍👍👍

3/5 stars

This one was okayyyyy. It was much less spicy than the other two books and also kinda...fell flat for me. However, still a good lil novella to read if you want something quick and to the point! I felt like we didnt really get to know Sevyn nor E'Lyjah, so that is kinda my reasoning for the mid review lol. I still enjoyed this and do recommend! :)

Loved this one as well… this series definitely has a hold on me. Seven and E’Lyjah is everything… I love a man of action and of words. Definitely can’t wait for more of this series. I absolutely love the friendship circle

[Fatimah · Rating 4 out of 5]

I ate this book up!! Every word, every page! Briann Danae did it again, I can’t wait to continue to read these series & continue with the love languages & other books in her catalog.

[Katie ratherbereadinggg · Rating 4 out of 5]

4 stars a fun time

[adoseof.adri · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love reading about my favorite love language & this one was *chefs kiss*

[Debbie Green · Rating 4 out of 5]

❤️❤️

Elyjah and Sevyn living next door to each other turned out to be a lucky break! Elyjah getting Sevyn's deliveries by mistake was the perfect excuse for him to knock on her door. They ended up swapping phone numbers, and after hanging out at the bar together, it was clear they hit it off big time. They were both on the same page about what they wanted from each other, making this story a real good one to dive into!

[Monique · Rating 4 out of 5]

E’lyjah said….“Eventually, I’ma know you so well, every want or need you have will be mine to fulfill without question.” As an acts of service girl…this…this is it.👏🏾This is all we want lol. And that’s what E’lyjah did for Sevyn.

This is a quick, fun, & spicy read. I love this friend group! Plus the audio of this entire series so far has been such a good time. It’s a whole production (It’s always the sound effects for me lol🫣.)

“I’m letting you prepare for how I’m about to fuck up your life in the best way.”

As usual, BriAnn Danae doesn’t disappoint.

-girlhood x friendship
-funny, conversational banter
-thick bodied representation
-tall FMC(5’8) / taller MMC (6’0)
-cute neighbor down the hall narrative
-spicy

This wasn’t my favorite book from the series thus far. But, it was cute for what it was. I look forward to getting updates on Sevyn & E’Lyjah throughout the rest of the series.

[Nikkia Chante’ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great short read. I love this group of friends . They all support each other and ride for one another. The ladies group chat is always hilarious. Now we have Jarel, Kema, Mikkia and Tru (I think that was the last guys name) to find love.

Acts of Service

So, this one was a bit disappointing. Don't get it twisted, this was still a very fun read, however in comparison to the first two, this one had very little spice and as someone whose love language used to be acts of service, I feel like there were a lot of missed opportunities to incorporate MORE.

I needed this story to be a bit longer. With that said, I still liked the story and enjoy the interaction within the friend group and the status updates on our previous couples.

[Jeni Ford · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sevyn is looking for a man that is going to do for her and put her first with his actions and words matching. I love that she took her shot with E’lyjah and that from the beginning he played no games about her. Just by him simply taking out her garbage showed her right there that he was about that life.

[Alicia J. · Rating 3 out of 5]

EROTICA love languages piqued my interest. This one addresses acts of service. This one fell a little flat for me compared to the first two. I enjoyed the “love” connection and history of the first two compared to this one. Maybe because I couldn’t relate to Sevyn like I could with the first two.

[Mybookscafe · Rating 4 out of 5]

Sweet

Not as spicy as the other books but still good. I enjoyed the boldness of Sevyn. The group chat scenes were my favorite
