Seven Minutes

by A. Rayne, Leigh Rhodes

What could possibly go wrong at a simple college party?
Tate Hope.
When Tate’s best friend Maddie drags her to a party, things don't go as she thought they would.
Not when Maddie added Tate’s name into a game of seven minutes in heaven.
Damon Carter.
Who knew his Angel would come waltzing right into his lap?
When Damon was dragged to yet another game night, he honestly didn’t think the night would hold his interest.
Well, that was until his little obsession made her way not only into the party, but also into his grasp. Game night just got a lot more interesting.

*this book has OW drama so if that's not your cup of tea, then you might not like this book.*

it’s all fun and games until the guy you’re hooking up with starts slicing your body with a knife so he can mark you then let’s his friends watch you two together and also let’s them come all over you 😟

Astaghfirullah🙏🏼

Not great, not terrible 😂 but it was a freebie and entertaining, so I'm not complaining

I liked the idea of this short read. Just that the drama llama with Becca was so mean girls type of drama, I'm too old for this. I didn't get his passive behavior. Just kick her, literally, since you're not fucking 16 year old to play these stupid games 🤯.

I liked that he instantly became obsessed and well, stalked her, to make sure she's safe, as in safe safe but also safe from other men *rolling eyes*.

I'm not sure why he waited so much time until he got with her. He didn't even know she would be at his party, so it was all by chance.

The spicy scene was hot, quick, and 🥵😂🤭.

I would read an extended version of this one. Or at least some proper epilogues 🥹. I wanted more.

Now, I need to see if Seb's book is out because damn, my curiosity is off the roof. 😨😨

What to expect
- quick and dirty read, once the spice hits
- no V; he was a player but stopped once he saw her
- college setup, small age gap (1 - 2 years, I think)
- he stalked her for the past 6 months until they finally hooked up
- HFN

"I watched her at school, watched her walk home every day as I kept my distance, making sure she got there safely. I know she’s probably seen me creeping close to her, but she hasn’t said anything. Not that I would ever expect the little Angel to confront me. I probably scare her more than anyone else. Well, maybe not Seb, but he’s a different breed of crazy."

--- YES! I need to see his breed of crazy 😂

well... this was certainly something. no rating and no thoughts. this novella simply exists and i decided to read it... that's it 😭

[Shannai · Rating 3 out of 5]

Unsure on how to rate, or feel about this because what the fuck have I just read? I’m here because I saw a TikTok on my fyp 🤷🏽‍♀️and it’s sitting on a cusp of 2.75/3 stars rating. I mean there’s no plot, straight spice, and I’m not mad about it. I didn’t really connect with the MCs, so can’t really comment on their dynamic/relationship. The other woman drama was, just there, a tad bit unnecessary imo. I will say that I was completely taken aback by the voyeurism scene, and again I’m not mad about it 😭😮‍💨 I’m intrigued by Damon’s friends, though.

Tropes

Boy obsessed
Stalker mmc
Kinks include; knife play, blood play, voyeurism and spitting

[Tea · Rating 3 out of 5]

- Fun, quick and smutty read
- Likable mc’s
- Bad/Popular boy x Good/Shy girl
- Slight stalking
- Unnecessary and ridiculous owd, which ruined the vibes for me (the mmc didn’t care for the other woman)


- Blood, spit, knife play, ass play, exhibitionism, voyerism, praise, degradation

3 stars

A quickie for those that like their books fast and spicy.

Omg!! Damon is the one for me.....his stalkerish vibes lol and the way he knew what he wanted....ahhhhh.... I'm melting here 🫠😍

When he said“What I have planned for Tate will need a lot more than seven minutes,”.....well damn I'd definitely break the rules to the game with him haha 🤣 anyways I'm done ranting.....or not. Oh my goodness that scene with all of them watching Tate with Damon that was 🥵🔥....

I enjoyed reading this just as much as Bloody Mary. It's short but leaves a big eek behind rayne is an instant read author for me. I love her writing.

Read if you like:
Obsessive MMC
Knife Play
Fast Burn
Edging

ARC REVIEW:


Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️


Honestly I was a little skeptical starting out since it was a short story. I wasn’t sure if I’d actually be into it since it wasn’t much longer than most of the fanfiction I read. HOWEVER. This was SOOOOO spicy. AMAZING. There were times it went from 0 to 100 in the blink of an eye, but I found myself wanting to read more and more. I’m definitely upset it was so short. This could easily have been a series and I would’ve bought it without a second thought.

i’ve never wished for time travel more than i do rn. i wish i could go back in time and be the person i was before reading this

[Christina (stinarinareads) · Rating 2 out of 5]

i think that was a little longer than seven minutes...

[Frida · Rating 2 out of 5]

No way the author wrote this and went “yup this is the one”!! Like be so for real right now

[ari · Rating 3 out of 5]

3 stars for the smut and the smut only 😂

Overall, this was a quick and easy read. Though the smut was nothing new to me, the “friends” part (if you know, you know) was hot and entertaining in a good way.

I definitely got some “mean girl” vibes from the drama that occurred with Becca as some other reviews has mentioned. She was annoying but at least the FMC was somewhat tolerable and the MMC was hot and had a hot dirty talk.

Also, heads up, If you’re looking for genuine connection or chemistry, you’re looking in the wrong place lol.

IMMEDIATE dnf. what’s sexy abt a guy being openly misogynist?

[Lucile *:･ · Rating 4 out of 5]

Can I reread it already??? 😭😭😭

[Shernell Joseph · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's the shortest longest book I have ever read.

This was kind of boring. Nothing new happened. I'm kind of disappointed.I even skimmed read the end. However, there is one scene with his friends that got me blushing, so for that 3 stars.

[Venus ✮⋆˙ · Rating 1 out of 5]

1 ⭐️ My reasoning for reading this is “I got this for free so might as well just read it”, this felt like reading Wattpad again in a baaaad way, at least in Wattpad I know a twelve year old could have wrote that and that’s why it’s sucks, but unfortunately it’s not the case.

3.75⭐

It was a nice read, some scenes weren't really my cup of tea but nothing I couldn't handle (read the CW before reading, please and thank you).

I would actually enjoy a longer book for this couple, but let's reduce to the minimum the multiple guys scenes, please and and thank you, lol.

i’m never trusting a tiktok recommendation ever again.

[Crazy4bookscruz · Rating 4 out of 5]

WOW!! this was fun

I loved this wholly 🤯 It turned out way hotter and darker then I imagined but it was perfection.
I would die to read more about Tate and Damon plus a little watching action from his friends.
The writing isn’t bad but the story really made it amazing. Great short read. Definitely recommend.

As always and I will ALWAYS say it, CHECK TRIGGER AND CONTENT WARNINGS. Your mental health is important!


Now….let's start the game…Seven Minutes starts now… ⏱


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 (in my opinion)


🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶/5 (in my opinion)


We have another installment in the game night series by these lovely authors. And let me tell you, I LOVED THIS from start to finish. Oh and finish it does 😏. If you know you know.


We start with our MMC Damon, who is dark and brooding. He then notices our FMC Tate. Tate who is soft and shy. Damon's polar opposite and who Damon now has his eyes on. 


Tate is dragged to a party by her best friend Maddie. Tate's anxiety made me feel like I'm not alone in this aspect. I love mental health rep in books! And this was no different. 


As the party progresses, it's decided by Queen Bee in charge that everyone is going to play Seven Minutes. And when Tate refuses she has no idea what she's in for. 😏


Damon and Tate's chemistry is just wonderful and you can feel it coming off the pages. I absolutely love this series and can't wait for the next.

3.5 ⭐️

Andaba buscando algo fácil de leer por que entré en bloqueo, este fue un libro entretenido, eso sí, tiene varios capitulos con spicy y no tiene nada de plot o así, solo son dos personas que se gustan, tienen sus cosillas y se quedan juntos jajajaja

Me interesó saber más de Maddie, así que me voy a empezar esa historia

[Samantha · Rating 1 out of 5]

This novella felt like it was bright to a first draft class. Characters were flat, and fit into stereotypical boxes. I downloaded a couple others from the author after seeing them on social media as good quick reads to help hit your Goodreads goal, but I'd rather miss my goals than read more.
