“Well, we’re in a romantic setting in an upscale restaurant, and I can’t stop thinking about how I want to kiss every inch of your body - right down to your silky, soaking slit.”


I’ve been on a roll with new authors this year and Willa Thorne is another to add to my list. I fell hook, line, and sinker for Mason Woodward. Even though he’s an arrogant jerk for part of the book, you know that’s not the real him. But it’s the guy he has become due to circumstances in his life. Like an overbearing and cruel father and a loveless childhood. They’ve all taken their toll on him and left him a shell of the man that he once was.

Jillian Pryor is sweet, beautiful and a bit naive. But aren’t we all at some point in our lives. I loved that she didn’t accept this new Mason. She knows that he really has a heart of gold and resolves to break through the walls he has built around his heart. She agrees to Mason’s plan to be his for three months, but she doesn’t know the motive behind it.


As she steadily chips away at the ice surrounding Mason’s heart, someone else has plans for Jillian. And that person will stop at nothing to remove her from Mason’s life.

I loved this book. I could not put it down. The sex scenes were scorching and I thoroughly enjoyed the suspense element to the storyline as well.

Lately I have been on a roll with reads from new authors to me. And Willa Thorne is another lovely addition!! This book had me clutching my pearls (if I wore pearls) and blushing like a virgin! I was a hot mess.

Mason Woodward is one smoking hot, dirty talking, kinky, tie me up yes please, ball of pure alpha male. My favorite type. He can also be a complete cocky jerk face. Who also has a past. A cheating ex girlfriend and one backstabbing ex best friend. What better way than to get revenge. Seduce the little sister of course!

And that would be Jillian Pryor. She’s shy, a little on the nerdy side, and just lost her job (which I found completely hysterical as to why she was fired) and broke. So after 5 years, she reaches out to her brothers ex best friend. Little does she know, she’s about to embark on a deal of a lifetime! Hey! She’s single and young. Go get you some girl!! And she does. Over and over and over. Mason does not disappoint. Neither does Willa Thorne in creating these scenes! Holy hot! I read sex. Lots of it. And it takes something special to have me feeling it all over!! Mr. Woodward is a very naughty man. Trust me. Just read it and you will understand. So during this “agreement”, feelings start to develop. Lines are blurred. And Mason is hiding his motives from Jillian. What will happen when she finds out?’ And what will happen after that ending!!! Good god I am so freaking happy that book 2 is out because I NEED TO KNOW!!!

Willa, I am so glad I picked this book up. Because once I did, I couldn’t put it down. Your writing and story had me sucked in right from the beginning! And you made me blush. That’s a hard thing to do!
You guys have to go 1-click His Pawn if you have not already. Mason Woodward will not disappoint.

Why did I wait this long to read this book?! His Pawn is deliciously sexy and emotional.

Jillian is a strong young woman who is down on her luck. In a moment of desperation, she reaches out to man from her past, her brother's former best friend, Mason. She only asks for a place to stay for the night, but ends up getting more than she ever imagined.

Mason is a hardened man. (I really wanted to punch him in the beginning.) Everyone in his life has betrayed him. He hasn't know compassion since before he had a falling out with his former best friend. When Jillian reaches out to him for help, old memories flood him, but Mason sees a way to get back at his former friend. Use his kid sister-- who isn't a dorky little teenager anymore.

Willa brings feels with His Pawn. Her detailed descriptions being the story to life -- evoking all of my emotions. And dear lord, this author can write a screen (and panty) melting scene. I was teary, elated and blushing throughout this delicious book.

Be sure to have Queen In Play (The Manhattan Tales Book 2) readily available. You will not want to wait between books. I sure couldn't! ;)

3.75 stars! Really enjoyed this book!

My only issue is that not much happened in terms of the falling Inlove stage... I wanted more romance and less sex sex sex. Lots of sex doesn't equate to love for me. I was wishing for more romantic scenes that allow the reader to follow Mason and Jill's journey to deeply love one another.

Mason starts off as a jerk with bad intentions, but then of course, Jill makes him change. And I love an asshole turned good :)

I am writing this review after reading all three books.

I enjoyed book 2, but felt like book 3 was useless. In the last 2 books, I feel as though it was all sex sex sex and one dramatic moment followed by sex sex.

This was particularly the case in the third book where I felt like it was completely unnecessary. The second was still suspenseful, and needed considering the cliffhanger of book one (oh and I kind of hoped that the next book would start from the cliffhanger, the fact that it didn't was anti-climatic). Anyways the second was needed for Mason's redemption and the suspense was good.

But the third just pissed me off. I felt like nothing happened till the 80% mark where it takes place within a couple of pages then back to sex.

I did enjoy this series, but I think this is a case where the author should've stopped earlier.

I absolutely enjoyed this read. What starts out as the perfect revenge quickly evolves into more. Mason is dominant and sexy. Jillian is down on her luck but reaches out to Mason which gives Mason the perfect opportunity against her brother for taking his ex. The sex is electric and Mason's resistance against his feelings for Jillian can make you roll your eyes but it's absolutely something we can all relate to. I definitely got into the story and was shocked by the ending. I kept trying to turn the page and continue the story. I'm definitely looking forward to the next part of the series.

I love finding new authors. When I read the blurb for this book, I knew straight away that I needed to read it. A book based on revenge against those that hurt you in the past is right up my alley. The amazing execution of this story drew me in and kept me turning page after page until the very last word.

Jillian is down and out of luck. She had just been fired from the job that kept her in accommodation and college. With no family around to help and no money to be able to help herself, she is desperate. It is from this utter desperation that she places a call to Mason, her brothers ex-best friend and a man that walked out of her life with no explanation after he feel out with her brother many years ago. He was there when she needed help in the past and she can only hope that some lingering feelings are still around in her time of need now.

Mason can’t believe it when he gets a plea for help from his ex-best friends little sister. For many years he has carried anger towards Travis after he slept with his girlfriend, ruining their friendship beyond repair. He has had nothing to do with Jillian in the years since the fallout but she presents the perfect opportunity to get revenge on Travis by using his sister.

When Mason proposes a contract of sorts with Jillian, Jillian thinks that she has found the solution to her many problems, and after all, it’s only 3 months. But she doesn’t know that Mason has plans to destroy her in his little game of revenge against her brother. What is not expected is how Jillian gets under Mason’s skin and little does he realise that the rules of the game have changed unexpectedly. But how is Jillian expected to come out unscathed when she doesn’t even realise that she is a player? Can Mason carry through and destroy the unsuspecting lives in his path to revenge? Or will it all change the longer he is involved with Jillian?

Jillian was an awesome character. There is something so endearing about a character that is willing to put her trust into someone without any pause. I am a sucker for an unrequited crush. I love when the character is finally able to experience what they had been pining for. I did feel sorry for her that she did not know how she was being used. But as she grew into her character she became more self assured.

I love a dirty talking, dominant, alpha male. Throw in a sexy British accent and you’ve got me. Mason delivered on so many levels. While his intentions started in one direction it was intriguing to live through his conflict once he realised that the rules had changed, and perhaps the shoe was now on the other foot and he was at Jillian’s mercy.

Man this was one hot read. There were scenes throughout this book that made me glad that I was reading this book in private. I am sure that my face was flushed several times. The explosiveness created by Ms Thorne was off the charts hot.

But even though there was a lot of intimate scenes in this book, the base storyline of revenge was not lost. It carried heavily throughout the book and kept me wanting to know what happens next. Be warned, there is a cliffhanger, but as I write this review, book 2 is currently available.

I don’t think that you will be disappointed in this book if you love alpha males, hot scenes and a strong story line. I recommend this to all readers of romance who like a side of smut. Books like this is why I love the Indie community - always gems to be found!

Ahhhh Willa! You slay me. That cliffy is killerrrrrr. Mason is the man I love to hate and hate that I love. And hated him I did. I had that something-terrible-is-going-to-happen-feeling in the pit of my stomach as the pages turned. This book made me nervous. If your’e looking for a caring and sweet Hero, Mason fails on every account. He’s selfish, egotistical, narcissistic and vengeful. Until Jill puts a crack in every piece of his armor.

Willa gives us just enough insight into the man that Mason used to be, back before his best friend (and Jill’s brother) slept with the woman he wanted to call his wife, to let us know that Mason is redeemable. Even though his relationship with Jill starts out as a plot for revenge against Travis for that unforgivable act, Mason quickly realizes that Jill is so much more to him than a pawn at his mercy. Lightness flows through her and he begins to suppress the demons that have haunted him all of his life.The sex is dominant and on fire. Even though Jill knows that their relationship is short-lived, she can’t help but feel the burn throughout her body every time she looks Mason’s way.

I struggled a bit with the writing in this book. The lack of contractions often made the story feel very formal – when there was no reason for formality. Additionally, the way certain scenes went from one to the other felt choppy. I loved the characters, but would have fallen at their feet if their dialogue and connection was a little easier. With a bit of editing, this could easily be a five star series.

Regardless, manipulation and sparks fill the pages as Mason & Jill contemplate their next move in this sexy dark romance. This debut from Willa will have you tied in knots, begging for so much more. 3.75 stars!

I tried really hard to keep an open mind, and perhaps in the rest of the series Mason's behavior will be justified or explained. I'm not interested in the explanation and Jill isn't the kind of main character I can get behind. I really didn't enjoy this, simply not my cup of tea.

~~~~~~~~~~Dee's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~

Watching Mason embark on a journey to exact revenge on innocent Jillian is tense, exciting and hot. Yet while his plan falls into place, he struggles to hide his regret and shame at being so selfish and ruthless. He buries the warm feelings that seek to flow from his heart. Suddenly, his plans blow up in his face and all is lost. It has been frustrating and at the same time, interesting to observe how two hearts react to each other. How one stony heart melts and the other sweet, loving heart becomes overwhelmed with truth and turns to stone. At the peak of this mountain of emotions, there is an accident (or is it?) that leaves the reader gasping and begging for more.

~~~~~~~~~~Sharlene's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~

It is hard not to fall in love with Mason and Jillian. Even though Mason seems like a real SOB, he turns it around throughout the course of the story. Jillian is just a sweet college girl who gets sucked into Mason's lifestyle. Not that she minds and once Mason realizes that, everything starts to change for them. But will it be too late? I'm not sure how Jillian has as much patience with Mason as she does. I wanted to slap him around a few times in the story. But Jillian sees something in him and has the determination to try to pull it out of him.

The scenery is described fairly well and the sex scenes are hot. There aren't too many secondary characters in this story but the ones that do show up are pretty well developed. There are a few twists and turns in the story which is told in dual POV. I for one love dual POV. I feel it adds more to the story.

This is the first installment in the Manhattan Tales series and definitely cannot be read as a stand alone. There is a huge cliffhanger at the very end. Luckily, the second installment is already out. So if you one click His Pawn, make sure to one click Queen in Play as well.

~~~~~~~~~~Amanda's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~~

A great read that ends with a suspenseful cliffhanger. Mason is a billionaire who was betrayed by his best friend, Travis. Jillian is Travis' sister and has just lost her job and became homeless. She calls Mason for help. He decides to help her but he has an agenda of his own. His plan backfires because he falls in love with her. His father offers her money to disappear. She finds out what he planned and runs away to hide from him at a masquerade ball where she is pushed down the stairs. What is his original agenda? Does she accept the money? Who pushed her down the stairs and why?

~~~~~~~~~~Patricia's ★★★★★ Review~~~~~~~~~~

This book starts out about a man who is hell bent on revenge for something his friend did to him years ago. When Jillian calls Mason asking for help a plan forms in his head s about a way to get back at Travis. When Mason gets Jillian to agree to a contract that has to do with his plan he is so excited. Jillian is very unaware of what transpired between Mason and Travis years ago. When Mason's plan doesn't go as he expected and he starts to have feelings for Jillian he doesn't know what to do it is driving him a little crazy. Jillian has like and or loved Mason for years unbeknownst to him. Will her feelings get in the way of what is transpiring between her and Mason. This book does end in a cliffhanger that I won't get into you will just have to read the book. This book grabs you and makes you have feelings along with the characters at sometimes you just want to slap them or at least choke them for being so ignorant.

4-4.5 stars. I am always down for a good love-hate/revenge plot. Mason hasn't forgotten the betrayal of his former best friend, Travis, even though it's many years later. An opportunity presents itself to help out Travis' younger sister, Jillian, and from there, Mason decides how he will get back at Travis. I was a bit miffed by Mason's plan because he was basically an older brother figure to Jillian even though she had an unrequited crush on him. Still, she respected and admired him and he looked after her and protected her. However, knowing more about Mason's background, he does have some issues that cloud his better judgment, especially in the haze of retribution. Jillian is quite endearing, she isn't demanding but she's intelligent, caring and independent. She's a little insecure and she's very self-conscious, but she's not an idiot. Mason is very polished and formal, but also domineering and sexy. He works hard and always gets what he wants in the end, there's nothing he can't buy for the right price and he's able to persuade Jillian for what he believes is the right price. Unfortunately, he doesn't realize that Jillian may have a price on paper, but only because what she really wants can't be bought and Mason isn't willing to give that particular item, his heart. Still, just by Jillian being herself, it's hard not to get attached to her. I liked this story because things weren't what they seemed. Although Jillian is very authentic and Mason isn't entirely deceptive, there are still some other details that I think will be further clarified in the next book, plus I am eager to see Mason fight for who and what he believes in.

This was really really good.

Great start of a new series and even greater because is her debut novel. Ms. Thorne you know how to bring the hotness out of these pages.







What will happen when you want revenge that you are willing to do anything for it? That's Mason and Jillian story. How far will Mason go for his revenge? and will it be worth at the end? Will Jillian find it in herself to forgave him, once she knows the truth?







His Pawn got betrayal, a little mystery, twist you wont seen coming, sexy hot scenes and charismatic-real characters that surely promise and excellent series.







Outstanding opening to a series, can't wait for May 30 for book 2. Ends in a Cliffhanger!!!

OMG!!!

This book is off-the-charts smoldering!!! I loved every minute of it! I could not put it down until I was done and it left me wanting more... I cannot wait for the next book!

Mason is a standoffish, sexy as h**l alpha male that doesn't take 'no' for an answer. His upbringing by his dictatorial father has made him lose faith in trusting people. It didn't help that he caught his best friend in bed with his fiancee five year earlier. Mason and Travis were best friends since high school. Travis was (and still is) very protective of his baby sister, Jillian, who is 10 years his junior. A situation presents itself where Jillian calls Mason, five years after the fallout, to ask for his help. Mason hatches a plan to seduce Jillian then send her back to her brother broken-hearted. All Mason can think about is revenge. He's become a ruthless business man who always gets what he wants. Little does Mason realize that Jillian gets him and he develops feelings for her. But all does not end well... You'll have to read the book to find out what happens next. ;)

I'm not a chess player, but I'd be Mason's pawn any day!

I was blown away. His Pawn is such an amazing book! Willa Thorne made me fall in love with the characters and their stories. I was so sucked in that I couldn't put the book down until it was finished. The emotions were so real, I couldn't stop the tears from falling.

Mason and Jillian were two amazing characters and I could easily relate to their feelings. Jillian who is sweet and innocent and Mason who is guarded, hard and won't let anybody near him. They made me fall in love with them instantly. His Pawn became one of my favourite books ever. Willa Thorne is really an amazing author and I can't wait to read the sequel Queen in Play.

Their story is so sexy and hot. Mason is smoking hot and talks dirty. His Pawn is a hot, sexy, panties-melting, emotional read. I really loved this book and can't wait for more from Willa Thorne.

His Pawn
By Willa Thorne

I don't feel 5 stars is enough for how much I loved this book. It had some very fsog moments by not in a bad way. It was a quick read but does have a major cliffhanger. Good news though, book 2 is out!

Jill becomes homeless and alone in NYC after being fired from her job due to a vibrator incident. Her mom and brother have moved to Ohio and her friends from school are away on vacation between semesters.
She decides to call Mason.
Mason is her brothers ex best friend who had a plan for revenge in mind when he agrees to help Jill.
The sex scenes are Hot and the Characters are easy to like. Book 1 leaves you wanting so much more!!

"She was a means to an end, Nothing. More"!
Mason Woodward - totally captivating, sexy as sin, and a man with an agenda! Years ago he was betrayed by his best friend. Now, years later, it's his turn for revenge..... or so he thinks.
Jillian Pryor is down on her luck. Being alone in the city, she has no one to turn to except her brothers ex best friend, whom she had a crush on before he left. However, she has no idea what's she's in store for or how much she'll like it! Although, some things are not always what they seem....

Oh my god, what can I say about this book. Mason is so hot but such an ass, I just wanted to tell Jillian to run as far away from him as she can. And then you get his inner monologue and he's so confused and sexy as hell. Is he redeemable, I certainly want him to be. For his sake and for Jillians. She's so sweet and down to earth you can't help but love her. Willa has started an awesome series here and I can't wait for more.

Holy hell of all things hot! This book is one seductively steamy and Sexy read!
I love the whole story line, and the twists throughout. The book is very well written from both Mason & Jilly's POV! I devoured it in a matter of hours.
Mason is one hell of a ultra fit alpha! And soooo dirty.. Like send shivers through you dirty!
Yes it does end on a bit of a cliffhanger but it's just so good it's worth it!

Jillian was trying to live independently while her family was away, but when she lost her job, she could only think of one person to ring and she hadn’t spoken to Mason in years.
When Jillian rang Mason saw the perfect opportunity to seek revenge on her brother, use her and let him know, Mason offers Jillian a contract for three months, be at his call for three months sexually and he will pay for everything she needs.
Jillian can’t believe it she crushed on Mason years ago and he is so much more than she could have dreamed of, Mason knows with what him and Jillian have he will want more than three months, and he’s not even thinking of revenge now.
Jillian realises as she battles with threats from his family, believing that her and Mason could be more than a contract, she remembers what they had before he stopped talking to her brother, but that all changes when she finds out what Mason never expected her to find out and nothing Mason says can change her mind – can’t wait for the next book.

Intense

This book is extremely sexual and contains light bondage and heavy domination. If this subject matter makes you uncomfortable then pass. Otherwise it is well written. I read all the books in the series before I rated it. The characters are wonderful and by the time the last page of the third book is finished you will agree. Secondary characters are great an I feel a new series commuting on with Jackson and Travis.

I will definitely be reading more from this author! The first book I received a free copy of for my honest opinion. But I bought the second two. That kinds says it all! 😂😂

Me gusto la premisa,el asunto es de que no me fije que era una trilogia esperaba un stand-alone.
Si hubiera sido un solo libro me hubiera gustado mas,como son 3 siento que el romance no me gusto,se enamoraron solo en base a su relacion sexual y pos eso no me convence
Si tenian lindos momentos juntos pero mucho antes de que empezara el libro(lo vimos mediante flashback)
Como dije es mas spicy que desarrollo so if you like that type of books you 'll like it
Porque era mas spicy me aburrio el libro y me decepciono,continuara la historia pero no hay ningun personaje que me llegue a encantar

DNF at 22%. I hate it when the hero sleeps with another woman while fantasizing about the heroine. I might've considered pushing through under different circumstances, but the writing didn't impress me and the hero is a pompous, arrogant asshole anyway:

Why Ms. Pryor, I was not aware you could be capable of such feelings for me. Who was I kidding? I merely had to look in their direction and women fell all over themselves around me.

So no great loss. I'm out.

I have finally broken my bad book reading curse with this amazing book! Thank you Willa for being an amazing writer.

From the beginning, we all know Jillian will get hurt by Mason’s actions. So as you read the book you’re waiting for the other shoe to drop. Mason is a hard character to hate. We know his intentions and what his game plan is, but I still love this man. He comes off as an alpha and a complete a**hole, but again, I can’t help but love him. He gets the perfect opportunity to get revenge on his ex-bff, Travis, and he takes it out on Jillian, Travis’ sister. Jillian is such a likeable character. She is sweet, humble, and a great person overall. Jillian has been in love with Mason since she was a teenager, so when Mason offers her a pleasurable deal she takes it – lucky lady!

One of the things I love about this book are the flashbacks from their younger years. We see how Travis and Mason meet and then we see their bond grows from friends to brothers, which makes it hard for me to believe Travis would betray Mason. Speaking of flashbacks, this was done perfectly. No confusions nor was it out of place. I also love how we know the secret. We’re not left in the dark, we’re actually in on the secret, which is so refreshing and rare to read about. The sex scenes are like woah! Probably one of the hottest scenes I ever read. I love reading the struggle Mason was having with his first intentions with Jillian. We see him fall hard for Jillian, but how can he not when Jill is amazing.

Of course the book ends with a cliffhanger, but luckily I have all 3 books.

4 Stars!

Okay, so I'm doing this backwards. I started with this author's most recent book that is a spinoff of this series and about two characters that are in these books. I became intrigued by her writing and found it very refreshing and sexy so I decided to backtrack a little, and let me tell you, I'm am so happy I did.

This book is the first book in "The Manhattan Tales", and it's about Mason and Jillian. These two have known each other for some time. Mason went school with Jillian's brother and they became best friends. Mason comes from a very wealthy and privileged family, however, he isn't close with them therefore spending more time with his best friend's family. At some point Mason and Jillian's brother, Travis fall out due to Travis sleeping with Mason's love of his life/girlfriend, and 6 years later, he seeks his revenge using Jillian.

Here's a prime example on why I love authors that write in dual POV when a character is as cold and disconnected as Mason is.. If I wasn't able to read his thoughts, I would've never have liked him but I did. He is a sexy, dominant alpha that has a hard shell around his heart that only Jillian seems to crack open. Jillian's is sweet, loving, persistent and naïve. I really liked her character and completely understood her soft moments and weakness for Mason.

This story is filled with sizzling chemistry and scorching hot sex as well as lies and deception. But there is a sweet steamy romance brewing underneath and I can't wait to read the next two books in this series.
