Wow tough to write this review! This is the final :'( in a series of 5 amazing books. The ride you get taken on with Ciara and her wonderful man Nikolaj, the sexy god I'd love to meet!
I've totally fell in love with this writer who manages to put over a HOT and steamy love story burning your fingers on every page! but with a great storyline too! The roller coaster takes you up and down this couples amazing story, bringing out Ciara's past and Nikolaj's too, because we all know we all have things in our past lives we want to hide and never let out, Ciara has had some serious weirdos in her past and Nikolaj is no choir boy but together they set your heart on fire. Apart from book 5 each book leaves you on a cliff hanger and your like NO!! you can't leave me here....when's the next book out. And now I'm so sad the series is over I'm begging the author for more.....oh I could read about their lives each day. Nikolaj the man we all want in out lives but well he's Ciara's so we just have to live our lives through her :). He loves her, makes love with her and saves her from the crazies in her past.

Including in the last book my fav song of all time is just wow! Like she's reading my mind, Scarlett seems to be able to mind read.........maybe that's her talent too but please Scarlett more books, I'm just so ready for the next series.....oh and for those who say why produce a series and not just one book...it's called anticipation....the wait, the wondering, where's the author taking me next is all part of this totally amazing read.

All this questions can be answer by you reading how The Seduction Factor Series ends. The outcome to this wild story will leave you pleased. I love how this two very strong yet passionate characters will face every crazy obstacle they can to obtain what they want.

I recommend this series, you will not be disappoint it.

I KNEW IT!!! he got what he deserved. spoiled prick. Glad they fixed that problem. great ending to a great story.

[Kathy Wideman · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the 5th and final book in this series and they must be read in order. Jakob has lead Ciara to believe that Nikolaj is the father of Marna’s baby and that he knew and is keeping that fact from her. Ciara doesn’t want to believe Jakob but he says that he has DNA proof and that Nikolaj’s name is listed as the father on the baby’s birth certificate. It’s not hard to believe when he says he has proof so she leaves. How could Nikolaj keep this from her she is destroyed. She immediately finds a taxi and flies to her mother and her father. She knows she can’t go back to New York that is the first place he will look plus he has keys to her place. She is crushed by what she believes and hasn’t answered any of his calls or texts. Her mother and father think that she needs to her what Nikolaj has to say but she doesn’t want to. Then six weeks pass and its Christmas time. How will Ciara make it through all these holidays with a broken heart? She receives a letter delivered by courier. When she reads it she is stunned. There is a birth certificate and DNA proof and Nikolaj says he is waiting outside for her to open the door. She is beyond excited and invites him in. She wants to fall back into his arms but first she needs answers. Nikolaj tells her everything that has been revealed. She is taken back by the lengths Jakob was willing to go to just because he jealous. Nikolaj wants another chance with Ciara and she is more than happy to give it to him. What does the future hold for Ciara and Nikolaj? Will they get their happily ever after? I loved this series so much and this book was a great ending to it. Nikolaj went through so much to get to the bottom the trouble his brother caused. I feel for Nikolaj’s family as well, it really only take on bad apple to cause trouble for everyone. I would love to read more about all the characters in this series. Scarlett Avery has been added to my list of favorite authors. I look forward to reading more books by her. She writes a story that pulls you in and makes you want to keep reading. The characters and wonderful and make you feel for them and what they are going through.
I was given this book in return for an honest review.

[Amie Morgado- We Stole Your Book Boyfriend · Rating 5 out of 5]

WOW what an action , drama , heartbreaking last part to this story !! I was on the fence with my rating , a couple of things made me really mad but total redemption by the end and the let's just say OMG what a Christmas !!

So face to face with Luke and now we see who he really is and get C's story about her past with him. Wow I can see why she was so devastated and heartbroken but I am so glad he showed his true colors because now she is totally free to love N and knowing what a jacka$$ Luke is makes life easy !! Of course seeing him does take a toll on C and because of that she has some great back up for the event and between Bryce and her new client Luke won't get anywhere near C. Problem with that is when Bryce steps in to help her out their interactions may be seen by the wrong person and we all know what happens when you jump to conclusions. With things hot and heavy for N and C we have all the friend and family intros going on. C travels home with N and takes part in a few major events for his dad and their family business. Too bad N's brother Jake has concocted a plan to ruin him and poor C is used as the bait. Here is my issue and possible spoiler sorry..... OMG after all the things they have been through , the time they spent , the way N has cared for her and the strength of their feelings WTF is her problem. For real , not handled very well and then to top it off I hate the span of time that goes by , OH NO WAY the dreaded 6 weeks later....UGGHHHHHH thankfully after those 6 weeks we were able to get back to where they were and even better things. Once again AMAZING romantic plans and super hot dirty talk and steamy sex knocks this finale piece of the story out of the park ! I enjoyed N and C's journey and am a serious fan of Scarletts !!

The Seduction Factor Book 5 - Sinful Desires is wonderfully written. The author does an excellent job of building the characters and plot from book to book. Ciara and Nikolaj have had a whirlwind relationship and they have both fallen in love with each other. Ciara runs into her ex-fiance Luke the night befofe the galla that she did the lighting for and her heart drops because he dumped her four weeks before they were to be wed. Ciera running into him and how she will be able to handle it is her greatest fear. Luke shows his true colors and makes Ciara realize that she is lucky he broke off their wedding but he is so mean that her sister insists that her husband Bryce attend the opening galla with her to protect her from Luke. Nikolaj shows up to surprise Ciara and jumps to the wrong conclusion. Nikolaj is still facing issues with his older brother and boy does he rock Ciara and Nikolaj boat. There are some more hurtles to overcome for the wonderful couple and the author really takes you on a rollercoast. There is some pretty hot, heavy and sinful sex scenes and she leaves you wanting more and more. The story is so wonderful that you feel every bump in the road and keep hoping they can work it out. Will they? Well, you will have to read this exciting edition to the series to find out. I just have to say this is ment to be the last book in the series but I hope the author changes her mind and takes us all on the journey the two lovers face.

[Tammy Hamilton Green · Rating 5 out of 5]

Two chefs, a deluxe kitchen, the recipe for something exquisitely hot and delicious? Nothing like the heat of a kitchen to fan the flames of a once broiling love affair? Ehh? Nope,that's not what's going on when #5 in this series kicks off. Roast her former lover on a spit - yea, that's more like it. Stick the apple in that pigs southern bred mouth and let's roast this silver-tongued charmer.

Seven years have past and while we know how Ciara hardened her heart to deal with his betrayal leading up to the alter, we didn't experience the hurt she felt, until her anger manifested itself in the kitchen that day with Luke. She needed that though, the long cry in Walter's arms was just the recipe to get over the burn. Ciara had finally let go.

Timing couldn't have been worse or perhaps better, depending on how you look at it. Risky public sex, naughty Parisian g-strings, and a visit to the dark side are just a few of the spices to be experienced.

All that spice must be balanced with a blend of heartache though and Ciara and Nikolaj's relationship will be put to the test when dear brother Jakob stirs the pot.

Scarlett brings it once again in what I think is the best in the series. I knew back when Ciara was introduced that evening deep throating the royal jewels, her story would be one for the books, but Scarlett well, she cooks up more kinkery and romance than I could ever have imagined.

[Gloria Herrera for As You Wish Reviews · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ciara is used to being independent. In love and in business she is her own master. She regrets the few times she has actually remained in a so called "relationship" with a man. It never works out!
She is the owner of her own growing interior lighting designs company. She is successful and needs to remain in control of her emotions.

This is her premise until she meets Nikolaj. He is that man we all dream about... super rich, educated, successful, hard working, great sense of humor and for the cherry on top, he is gorgeous with a body like a Greek God! The man can be compared to Everready Bunny! His vitality can only be surpassed by the entire nine inches of him that has never disappointed a woman!

Well written and fun of blazing hot scenes, Scarlett Avery proves once again her mastery of the erotica genre. This is more than some sexy encounters. We have a plot line that will draw you in and will keep you on the edge of your seat. Ciara is about to undergo a journey discovering more about herself and learn about the family secrets she never had a clue about. Has her life been a lie?

I want more!

Book 5 in the seduction Factor will blow your mind, just as you think nothing else could stop these two, you are hit with a brick and for the first time my heartbroke.

Ciara and Nikolaj have had a whirl wind affair finally both have confessed their love for each other and then his the twisted hateful jealous bother Jakob through a huge bomb that will have Ciara running and regretting ever giving her heart again.

Nikolaj is lost and he know Jakob has plotted destroy what happiness he and Ciara have because he heads him with vengeance.

You will feel for both these lovers and hope that Ciara will open her heart once the truth comes out.

This book was just as hot and sexy as the others and you temperature still sore out of control.

I loved this whole series and was happy to see the end only to find Ms Avery will be releasing book 6 which now has me waiting with bated breath to finally see a happy ending or will Ms Avery continue to tease us with a new twist.

I gave this book a 5 star, in fact this whole series deserves a 10 plus. With every book you are left wanting more and I for one want to see more of this hot sexy Dane with the British accent.

[Keatyn's Mommy · Rating 5 out of 5]

Holy Hell that was Heavenly!!

We've followed Ciara and Nikolaj thru FIVE serials. I never thought we'd get to read this!! As part of a small group of women that stalk Ms Avery I can honestly say she stirs up emotions that have to PM'ing the author telling her you love her or hate her depending on the part you're reading!!

I've followed Ciara from her sister's series Unbearable Passion thru the five books that sum up her life with Nikolaj the self made billionaire playboy that can have anyone he wants but wants Ciara the one woman that doesn't want or need a man other than for a sexy romp in the sheets. They use the other sex for exactly that Sex! Until she walks into that bar in Toronto. All's fair in Love and War.

Ciara and Nikoaj fight their feelings for each other, they fight to overcome crazy people that pop up like a father she never knew about, an old flame, a child... But they have an HEA. Don't forget to sign up for her fan page and get be secret chapters!!!

Love to hate you Scarlett Avery!! Mwahhhh

Ps. Need a honeymoon book full of dirty sex!!

[Sarah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ciara and Nikolaj’s story wraps up in this fifth part of The Seduction Factor. What a sizzling journey it’s been! Sadly as many obstacles as they’ve overcome, they’re not quite done yet.

Ciara finally gets to meet Nikolaj’s family and she fits right in, with the exception of Jakob who has caused lots of drama from the beginning and doesn’t let up now. He purposely interferes with their relationship putting doubt in the relationship challenged, Ciara’s head all the while trying to steal control of the family business.

The sexiness gets taken up another notch. I mean when Ciara has French panties that are “more like a g-string with a clitoral pendant”…I had to google this one because it left me curious. Talk about eye-brow raising.

As expected the jet setting pair gets their HEA and it’s in a sweeping romantic gesture. Nikolaj leaves us swooning to the very end.

This is truly a brilliant finish to this series. It will have you gasping in many places and crying in others. As usual it is so erotic it will make you blush in its descriptive sexy scenes. That Nikolaj and Ciara are setting fire to the pages.

There is lots of suspense and excitement throughout the story and ex boyfriends and girlfriends cause disruptions to a masterfully told and wonderful love story. Who will win in this tangled web of deceit???

The characters - good and bad - are really well described and emotionally, you will feel hatred and love in abundance as you follow the tale. Who will win in the games being played?? Ah well - you have to read the book for yourself. You will not be sorry you followed the whole series and you will want to read it again as it just gets you like that. Intriguing, super-sexy, gripping and beautifully written - Scarlett Avery does not pull her punches. Five stars plus for me.

Reviewed on Behalf of Give Me Books

Yay! We finally get the conclusion of Ciara & Nikolaj’s story and in true Scarlett Avery fashion, it is HOT! “He treats me like I’m a princess and fucks me like I’m a queen, what more can a girl ask for?” Umm, I think that is more than enough! :)

In this installment, we watch as Ciara & Nikolaj continue to make their relationship work while living apart. Since Nicolaj is a billionaire, they don’t have to be apart for long, but their reunions are always sizzling! “I’m not an addict, but you’re my cocaine, Nikolaj.” The Yours Eye Only Club scene – holy hell!!

I loved that we got to see Ciara meet Nik’s family and was so happy to see her fit right in. Of course, his brother caused lots of unnecessary drama. But since they were meant to be together, they were able to work through it, even if it did take forever! I certainly hope we get to see a wedding in the future. (4 stars)

ARC given in exchange for an honest review

I loved it. I was so excited for this book because I wanted to see how Nikolaj & Ciara story ends. It was so worth the wait. This book kept me on me hooked and I couldn't put it down till I was finished. The chemistry is even hotter in this book and man will it leave you hot.

Ciara runs into someone from her past that she has done everything possible to avoid for over 7 years. She finally realizes what everyone was saying and the one person she wants can't make it to the gala. Nikolaj surprises Ciara and shows up to the gala only to walk away. After a misunderstanding the two let everything come out and see where they go.

This book will not leave you hanging. This has a HEA and you'll want to know what happens especially if you've been reading the series. I have to say, I loved how the story ends. Great job to the author on another amazing book.

[Babel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another rollercoaster of high emotion and big, romantic, extravagant gestures. The perfect ending for a serial that deals with second chances at love, luxury, delicious cuisine, and raw, primal eroticism.

There are lots of juicy things to enjoy in this last installment. From deliciously naughty passion to journeys into the kinky side of a European capital, Nikolaj and Ciara indulge in their newly found love for each other. I really relished their wild behaviour as they deepen their feelings with lots of heated declarations, extravagant gifts and insanely hot steamy times.

With a melodramatic writing style, this author delivers an utterly romantic finale to this serial so full of family secrets, an incredibly hot Danish billionaire, expensive gifts and all the naughty bedroom time you can wish for!

A wedding to come!,

Faced with the man who broke her heart, Ciara is forced to come to terms with what really happened at that tine and with what us really going on now. Time put perspective and clarity in place for her. Nikolaj and Ciara are forced to face their rears and denials and admit exactly how much they really do love one another. True emotions come bubbling out. Jakob shows himself to be the scum he is , and creates another family scandal, but big dad finds out about it and plays it off. Ciara and Nikolaj tend to spend more time together and enjoy each other, fall deeper in love together with a proposal as an ending. Steam, healthy dose of sex thrown in there for weekend plans? When will the wedding happen? Where? Don't make me wait too long!,,,,,,,, !,!!?!

[Denise Palma · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is my review for the whole series...I read the Unbearable series and I liked it a lot however I really loved this series. I felt Ciara had more character than her sister Sophie and Nikolaj let me tell you to be ready to change your panties often or don't wear any LOL!! I really love a man with an accent especially an English one, even though he is Danish I kept imagining that he sounded like Jason Statham. I loved that these were short and steamy ending almost always on a cliffhanger that made me glad that I had all of the books so I could immediately start the next book. The ending to this series was so good. If I read right, there will be a sixth book for this series?? I will be keeping my eye out for that one and I will also be adding Nikolaj to my list of book BF. :)) Now I will starting your Billionaires Indulgence series keep them coming Scarlett!!

Drama, Drama, DRAMA! Did I mention that this the last installment has drama? OMG we have the past coming into to ruin her and yeah by past I mean LUKE! We have Nikolaj's brother trying to ruin him and using Ciara as to make it happen and then we have misunderstandings and broken hearts galore! Phew can these two catch a break? But hey that is what we signed up for when we started the amazing ride that is The Seduction Factor Series. Nikolaj and Ciara are the couple that heated things up from the beginning and they don't let us down as we get to the end of their story. Amazing from dirty talking beginning to hawt and naughty ending!

I know this was supposed to be the finale but Scarlett has the ability to continue if she chooses and that just makes me so happy! Wtg Scarlett you've done well! Thank you

What an ending to a great addictive series.

I had a love/hate relationship,with this book. I hated Jakob, oh man, he was
a manipulative one, but Nikolaj wow what a sweetheart.

My heart broke for Ciara, I wanted to punch Jakob and I wanted to console
Nikolaj.

An amazing read, could not put it down.

Even with being #5 of a series, I was impressed with how the storyline
flowed, I loved the emotion and the moments I wanted to jump into the book
and knock Jakob out. I want to hug Nikolaj and have a few glasses of
champagne with Ciara.

Great book, loved it.

[Patti · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wow, just Wow! I absolutely love the story of Nikolaj and Ciara. From the very beginning, this story grabs you and keeps you coming back for more. Their intense sexual attraction is amazing but you can also feel the love these two characters have for one another.

We finally get to learn what is behind Jakob's actions. Nikolaj's older brother is a scumbag with a capital S.

Scarlett Avery knows how to write erotic romance. Simply Amazing!!! I'm only sad that we have to say goodbye to Nikolaj and Ciara.......or do we? Hopefully we can get more of this beautiful couple.

[Fee (Ebook Addicts) · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was a brilliant end to this series. I have enjoyed watching Ciara and Nikolaj come together, see Ciara drop her barriers and let love in and deal with cliffhangers galore.

This book gives a HEA and it is well deserved, after everything they have been through together - what with Jacob, Nikolad's older brother threatening their relationship and seeing them be apart for 6 weeks.

Nikolaj gives her, her space then hits her with the information to win her back.

The ending was just right for them, and Ms Avery is slowly becoming a favourite of mine after this series.

5 stars

[Jennifer's Reading · Rating 4 out of 5]

In this final installment, these two people have finally seemed to settle their pasts, slayed the dragons that were coming for them, and are moving forward. However, it just seems that they are going to have the happy ever after that they deserve.

Just when things look like they are going to be perfect, everything blows up and it really hits the fan. This time the drama could destroy everything. You HAVE to get this fifth and final book in the series and find out what is going to happen, and if these two people finally get the HEA that they deserve!

Oh my gosh .......So sexy... more please...

I loved everything about these books. Nikolaj didn't just capture Ciara's heart he has mine too. The British accent, his money, and overwhelming love for her. She learns that she can love and be loved. The fact that her shoes were what started it all breaks a girls heart. I must go buy more lingerie and heels.
Thank-you Scarlett Avery for touching my heart and making me hungry for more.
They need a wedding or rather 2, and oh my what a honeymoon.....

Scarlett you have such a way with your writing to keep me (and probably other readers) always wanting more. And you don't disappoint with book 5! I loved this book as much as the other 4. Ciara and Nickolaj are two of the best characters I have read about in a long time. Maybe one day we could get a bonus chapter or two letting us know a little bit more of their happily ever after.. Thanks for sharing your writing talent with us.

Oh my stars what another great book by Scarlett Avery. I really love this series it is a addicting series that you hook you since the first book in the series. Sinful Desires continues in The Seduction Series that continues with the love between Ciara and Nikolaj. The sparks continue to fly and leaving you breathless and wanting more. The sex scenes are hot and steamy. These books are diffently a keeper and to enjoy forever.

The book is so hot! Loved how Nikolaj traveled all over the world to reach Ciara. I loved the fact that when he almost fought with Bryce because of what he saw at the gala. His brother was being so cruel to him and Ciara that it hurt their relationship until Nikolaj grovels at her feet to seal their relationship.
