Reserve
Enjoy more of the continuing Why Choose adventures of a once-shy librarian as she deepens advanced friendships and learns more about herself in the process.
Sheila’s dating history is nothing to write home about, so she gave up on dating entirely. Until she spent some private time with Derek at the library where she works, she thought she was destined for lonely nights and solo activities. Instead, that adventure set her on a road to new experiences wilder than her previous daydreams.
In “Reserve,” Sheila clings to her plans to avoid relationships while exploring her newfound desire, but Pete and Derek tempt her resolve. Pete introduces her to the fun of a non-date at a drive-in movie and an empty parking lot. In contrast, Derek taunts her with a remote control toy at a friend’s restaurant while offering more than she’s ready to accept.
The two men tease and titillate, and things get even hotter when they work together—separately—in an unexpected way to bring all her current fantasies to life.
“Reserve” is the third book in the Booked for Lust series, but each book can be read as a standalone erotic adventure.
Contains explicit sexual language.

Double FWB
I came into a continuing series midway. Not my preference, but I survived. 😉 I do think that I would've had a slightly better experience had I read the other two books first.
That aside, this one hot and detailed piece of erotica. I enjoyed the time Sheila spent with Pete and Derek, and I'm curious as to where this leads. I do love that they are aware of each other and even collaborate. So. Stinking. Hot!
As far as an introduction to a new-to-me author goes, this one was interesting and tantalizing. I suspect I'll be back for more. 🌶🌽

Holy shit. He might be able to make her come with just that sexy-as-fuck gravelly voice.

Reserve by Penny Heart is a fast paced, hot and steamy book full of spicy excitement and I really enjoyed it!🔥 I can't wait to read about what happens next😁
I personally would have enjoyed it more if it were a longer read though and if more detail were provided between the action.
This book can be read as a stand-alone or as part of a series, but in my opinion it would be best to start reading from book 1.
Don't forget to add this to your TBR list!

Shelia is back and the advanced friendship adventures has never been more explosive, more filthy, or more carnal.😈🔥😈🔥😈 This book went there and there was no holding back. Not for Shelia or the men that are in LUST with her.🌡️🎆🌡️🎆🌡️Fever!!! The Why Choose theme runs just as strongly as the previous book. This can be read as a standalone and Ms Heart does include previous recaps as book 3 continues.
Pete and Derek have returned, willing to take their connection with Shelia to bigger and greater heights and blazing temptations. It's intense!!! Rough and raw. You have no idea.😝😂🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋 But to be clear: this is consensual. Nobody is doing something that they don't want to do. I didn't know it was going to be this hardcore.🤯😵🙊😭
There's a plot and world building. Shelia still doesn't do relationships, she's still exploring and pushing her boundaries. But. I think she's lonely and wants connection, not just fun hookups. Her insecurities, fears, and doubts are still in the back of her mind. Maybe she wants more? Now we have flirty Alexander to add to the mix.👨🏻🍳 Alexander's Mama is hilarious!!haha I think someone is falling for Shelia. I won't spill the tea.🤐🤫😆 Uh-uh. That ending.👤🚘 The book cover is great. Happy reading.*•>§<•*❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
🤵👩🏫👨🏻💼Thank you to Ms Heart for an ARC. The opinions shared here are my own.👨🏻💼👩🏫🤵

I am thoroughly enjoying this series. Sheila is taking her $ex life into her own hands, literally. She wants to explore in and out of the bedroom, and she is found a couple of very handsome gentlemen to help her! One even buys her a toy.

Ms. Heart continues to give readers the spiciness we crave. Sheila is still having a good time. Derek and Pete make an appearance in this one. They actually connect and take Sheila to new heights. I love how supportive these men are to Sheila. That is one thing that this librarian in missing. All I can tell readers to do is enjoy this short spicy story. Sheila is finding herself and getting her grove back in the process. Ms. Heart knows how to bring the spicy. This series is just keeps getting hotter.

Booked with Lust follows Shelia during her sexual awakening of sorts. She is exploring without commitment. In this book, she is still friends with benefits with Pete and Derek, but now they are communicating and plotting all sorts of fun for Shelia. This is another short and spicy edition in the series. Can't wait to see more in the series.

Reserve is book #3 in this series. It brings even more spice to our little librarians life. I love her boldness. Trying new things, putting herself out there and taking what she needs for herself. Each of the books in this series are quick short bites. Easy and fast to read.

I loved this story. I did not want to put it down. SO MUCH SPICE and it was amazing. I was practically biting my knuckles and blushing while reading. I love the Sheila's progression throughout the book and series. I love how she is embracing her journey. I cant wait for the next book in the series. I definitely recommend!

Shelias journey is amazing. She's still on her no dating and having fun phase. And she has loads of it. The characters, world and storyline is great.
It's a must read series.
