Levels, Levels, Levels wow there are a LOT of Levels to this story and I LOVED each and every one of them. Once I started reading this book I just couldn't put it down. Jaime has a way with her writing that draws you right in from the very first page and Levels was no different than any other of Jaime's books.
Katrina is a normal housewife who is married to Justin. Justin is working through SOCM courses. While completing this courses he has been neglecting his family mainly his wife. After Katrina received some life changing news she realizes that things with Justin needs to change or their marriage may end in divorce.
Will Katrina and Justin's new flirty neighbors Klaus and Hayley be able to help save them save their marriage? My lips are sealed.
I know that there is a DISCLAIMER placed on this series but please don't let that stop you from reading. I was a little leery but it turned out to not an issue at all.
So if you're looking for a quick HOT read then pick up Levels.

Holy smokes! I'm not sure where to begin or how to even word it. Not a book to read at work, that's for sure. I can say, if I found my husband doing what Justin was doing, I wouldn't question why his sex drive is nonexistent anymore. Hayley and Klaus are my kind of neighbors. They are an open as a book and sexy beyond your imagination kind of couple.

I need more!! Jaime did an amazing job with this book and I can't wait to read the next book in this series!! You will not be able to stop once you start reading and let me tell you this book is HOT!!

WOW...
First swinger read for me. We all wonder what a swinger life is like. How does it work? What kind of rules do the couples have?
Katrina and Justin were in the brink of separation. Their new neighbors saved them from that. I personally wonder how a swinger marriage is like. How do they not consider it cheating? What kind of rules do they come up with?
Just like a BDSM, swingers are every where they just don't advertise it.
Justin an ARMY soldier works long hours, he's tired, he works long hours. Sex is the last thing on his mind when he gets home.
Katrina a housewife, all she wants is her husband's attention, to feel loved, wanted. I mean all us military wives feel that way. I totally get how she feels.
All they needed to do was think outside of the box. A little hesitant at first, however seeing each other with another person is how they connected again.
In the beginning I wanted to throat punch Justin. I get he he works hard. All he wants to do is come home, eat and relax. However when your spouse needs your support you should be there, not at work.
I was happy to see that both Katrina and Justin agreed to try to be swingers. I think it might benefit them.
I can't wait to see how this plays out for them.

Levels....taken to many in this story. A great story that packed a lot in to a short amount of pages and chapters. Strong characters with very real issues in marriage and life. Parenthood, work, health, school.
This was some new territory that I really loved! HOT, HOT, HOT!!
Going clubbing has had a new meaning.
I cannot wait for more stories in this series and see where it goes.
The openness of the story pulls you in and gives you a nice ride

Wow! What a fantastic little short story that packed a lot of punch....and heat! Did I mention it was hot! Husband is overworked, always tired. Wife doesn't feel like husband appreciates or finds her attractive anymore. I'm sure it's a story I'm sure a lot of women can relate too. New hot, sexy neighbors move in next door and sparks fly. It felt like an R rated version of Desperate Housewives! Lol. Very curious what kind of trouble Klaus gets himself into in book 2.

It was amazing. It's a short quick read that will hook you from the beginning all the way until you finish. And then after you finish it will leave you wanting more. Another amazing job by Author Jaime Whitley she has always knows how to hook you and make you want more. I loved everything about this book. And can't wait get more. All of the characters was amazing.

I loved this book! It's so nice when an author goes out of their Comfort zone that's exactly what Jaime did. Such an amazing read but I wouldn't expect anything less from this author. ❤️❤️

Hotness Rating 5 out of 5
Holy Hotness! This book was amazing! I can not say enough about a short story that has it all. So often you feel rushed and kind of out of the loop when it comes to a book with less than 100 or so pages. This is definitely not the case with Levels. The characters pack such an emotional punch there were times I found myself tearing up. And don't even get me started on the sizzling scenes that this book provides.
In this first installment of the Swingtown series by Jaime Whitley we get an introduction to so many awesome characters. The main storyline revolves around the struggling couple Katrina and Justin. Justin is in medic training and it's taking so much of his attention away from their family. Katrina is dealing with possible medical issues and needs her husband more than ever. All she wants is to feel desired and important, again. She's almost to the point of giving up when their new neighbors move in.
Klaus and Hayley are new to the area. They are the owners of the new BDSM club Infinity. Inviting their neighbors to the club was a risk, but it just seemed like a good idea at the time. The relationship that forms between this foursome is hot! I love Klaus and Hayley. Their love for one another literally flies off the page. And the heat they generate is smoking!!!
I love how this book highlights how an alternative lifestyle can actually save a marriage when rules are set and followed. It was interesting to read how an open marriage actually made Katrina and Justin feel closer to one another than they had in years.
I can not wait to delve more into this community and this series.

*This book is for the mature audience*
The title is simple but oh so accurate. The cover is absolutely gorgeous and the blurb..well the blurb certainly is attention grabbing! This story has levels of relationships all over the place. We see friendships and what friends do and do not share about their marriages. We see family dynamics, couple tension, love and arguments. We see the possibilities of more levels to a friendship as this story progresses...and it progresses in a very steamy and entertaining way! It is a quick read, extremely well written, and left me wanting to read more by this author.
I read this book in one setting and was amazed by the character development in this story. I thought the dialogue between couples, friends, families were spot on and left me quite irritated with Justin! I mean quite a few times I was like seriously what is his problem!. . . Especially considering all the things Katrina was doing around the house, for the family and experiencing herself. I had never read a book about the swinger lifestyle so it was interesting to see the characters also show hesitancy, curiosity, and more as they venture into this journey. Their new neighbors, the way they dress, their house, etc. makes them sound like they would be fascinating to meet/see on TV. This is the first book in what I can only say is going to be a HOT series and from the first book I think many people will enjoy the characters and their story!

Wow....... Definitely not something I'm used to reading from this author by damn glad I did!! While I get that some people may not be approving of such a lifestyle, I'll admit that it was an eye opener!! Even being fiction, I feel like people could actually learn from this. Let's not forget though..... There... Is.... Hot.... Sex..... Expertly written in my opinion! This is actually a hard review to write because I really can't give any spoilers!! So, that being said, I can relate to what Katrina was feeling in this book. Which in my opinion makes this book my top read. I felt connected to her as a reader and I'm certain other readers will feel the same. But, I also felt the same with Justin. Working to the bone and having what HE perceives as a slightly unappreciative wife. But, I felt his annoyance. I'm loving that this book took the turn I didn't expect it to. It's a story of fulfillment and doing whatever is necessary to ensure a happy marriage! Kudos to the author.... You've successfully hooked me !

Katrina is a housewife who has a ordinary life but she's in the prime of her sex life. Her hubby is busy training and studying to be a medic in the service. He's just not on the same wave length as Katrina. She's about had it with his distance and indifference. What's a girl to do? Does she leave or stay? Katrina gets some scary news and decides life is to short to compromise. Next door a sexy fun couple moves in and Katrina's life is about to change. This is when the steam factor goes up 100%. Wow the swinger life is so hot. This new lifestyle may just save thier marriage. Jaime Whitley does a great job showing the frustrations of a bored housewife who has had enough of her humdrum life. She wants to explore the steamer side of life. Can Swingging save them? Or are they setting themselves up for failure? I'm so excited to see what happens next.

I must admit, I had reservations trying this series, I am not one who likes to read cheating for the most part. This isnt really like that at all .... Turns out I knew nothing about consensual sharing so to speak ... I really loved this book.
The story was written well, which is really what reels me in. If it was written trashy, i'd probably hate the concept but it wasnt and this author, as she has with her other books, has reeled me in and kept me there wanting more.
The characters are written well and mesh together well and i can connected with them. Klaus makes me smile. I cant help it. I think I may have a little book boyfriend crush. This is the first book in a series I really cant wait to get more of. Im really looking forward to more !!
Jaime Whitley has never disappointed me. I love her writing
I absolutely recommend this book !!

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
HOLY FREAKING HOTNESS!!! This is an over 18 book that's for sure. Read it at home either when with your partner near or when your alone cause this book is HOT!!! The first part of the book is powerful with Justin and Katrina. The things going on with Kat Jaime did a wonderful job telling the story. Then they meet the neighbors and let me tell you they are NOT your ordinary neighbors by any means. THIS STORY IS STEAMY and I WANT MORE!! Just the way Jaime tells the story I don't know how you couldn't want more but then again not every book is for everyone. This is one like I said may NOT be for everyone. I so can't wait to read book 2.. SMOKIN'

I have to say I really enjoyed this book. It was a great short sexy read, and the characters were totally relatable. I don't know if I could have been as open minded as Katrina was when everything unfolded, but I could understand her frustrations from the beginning. I don't want to say too much more and give anything away, but if you're looking for something quick and different this is def. for you. Jamie knows how to turn up the heat, and she didn't fail to deliver here. I can't wait for the next one.
October 31, 2015
I'm really, really curious where this series will go. Katrina and Justin have a stale marriage where their sex life is almost non-existent. Justin is worn out and doesn't seem excited or that interested in his wife anymore. New neighbors move in next door and they seem to insert some excitement into their lives. I definitely want to see what happens next and couldn't stop turning the pages.
December 29, 2015
Let me just say Wow...the cover for this book is gorgeous...in bought it at rebels and readers as soon as i saw it..... made a beeline for her table.... this book left me wanting more.... I need more Katrina and Justin...... I need more levels...... please tell me there are more books coming for the swingtown series?????
January 13, 2016
Levels had a very different theme from others books that I have read. I enjoyed it. The story was very easy to get into and it was short, but left me very interested in finding out what would happen next for them in book two.
November 21, 2015
I pretty much read this one in a day. It was that good. It has levels of sexuality and jumps in it quickly. It reads smoothly, not forced. Jaime writes it well and I really enjoyed reading it. Thanks Jaime.
November 30, 2015
Levels is a short read but packs a lot in. Including a steamy sex scene and what good communication can accomplish, if both people are willing to listen and compromise. Jaime did an amazing job of showing the many different levels of a marriage and how one decision can change everything.
