Watch

Watching #3

by Bethany James

I’m at a standstill.

If I push forward, I could destroy everything that Jack and I have built together. If I pull back, I could be left forever wondering what if.

I’m torn between Jack and Elle, the man I love and my friend who wants to become my lover.

I’m curious. It would be a lie to say I wasn’t.
He says no. My body says yes.

Could I risk it? Risk hurting and possibly losing him.

Just you watch.

Jeeeeeeeeeesus Christ! This serial: Watching, Watched & Watch, was so ridiculously freaking sexually intense that if your girlie parts weren't screaming for attention while you read it, you might wanna get yourself checked out ... just sayin.

I am SO fortunate to have been able to receive all three of these episodes at once. I have no idea how anyone read these with a pause. I jumped from one to the other straight thru without a single pause. They aren't lengthy, so I was able to do it in one sitting, but I can tell you right now that even if they were lengthy, I wouldn't have stopped!! #TRUTH

Watching: Volume 1
This is an introduction of sorts. Our heroine learns she is a voyeur with the help of our hero and his club. I can't say there's much more than frikkin hot sex going on in this episode, but it doesn't matter because more will come ...

Watched: Volume 2
This episode begins right where we left off ... But the tables get turned...The watchers now become the watched. And holy frikking shit it gets hotter!

Watch: Volume 3
The conclusion, if you will, of this incredible little piece of literary deliciousness was so perfect, that I'm finding it hard to tell you about it. Our heroine has a decision to make about her sexuality and needs and it could possible blow up in her face ... or not :) ~~ You're gonna have to read to find out!

I cannot stress enough the importance of knowing that these three stories do not stand on their own. Their episodes that when put together make up a scorching hot read. If you're looking for a quick, sexy, dirty and satisfying read ... look no more #TRUST

This was so awful. I can not think of anything positive about this book. I can't think of a single thing I enjoyed from this book or any book in this series. Its very very rare I leave a one star review, or even a fully negative reveiw. I usually try to find something, anything positive but I can not find one good thing about this entire series. These are by far the worst "books" I've ever read. Why is books in quotes you may ask. I'll tell you why. From the length of each book to the writing style, and the plot nothing in this was what I would consider something for a book. I wouldn't even say they deserve the title of short story. What this book/series is, is a glorified fanfiction off of wattpad just like I said in my last review. Honestly that might be an insult to wattpad story's. Even the middle school virgins writing these smutt fanfictions could do better than this garbage. This is worse than wattpad fanfictions and even the "good" or best reviewed storys on there are no good. I thought wattpad was were i would find the worst writing. Turns out a published author with many published books its where I find that who knew! Now you may be thinking, ok this girl clearly doesn't like this book but why? Well ill tell you like I said in the last two review the characters are terrible. Their interactions, Forced, unrealistic, and unimportant. The plot is absolute dog shit. First of all it was hard to follow, and not because it was to complicated. No it was because there was barely any. When there is some plot points its so short and glossed over that you immidatly forget it. There were multiple times that they would end a smutt scene ( which was poorly written and cringy as hell btw) and they would attempt to build a plot or comment on a plot point from earlier it would leave me confused. I would wonder if I missed this being built earlier in the book. Sometimes I was right they briefly brought it up between smutt scenes and moved on so quick that I just forgot. Other times it was just something that randomly popped up nothing leading up to it and/or no reasonable way it would happen with the given circumstances. Time passage in the book made no sense, it would just go from one point in time to like months later at random. When you actually look into the characters and how they "progress and change" throughout the series you realize they have stayed the exact same. There was no character development at all. Each character was one-dimensional had no depth almost no internal conflict they were just cookie cutter characters like I said in the first review. They felt like empty shells of the most stereotypical version of a character with that role. The love interest is like every other love interest you find in books there was nothing that set him apart from any other book boyfriend. If I had to describe that character I would describe him as "handsome and horny." Thats his whole character with just 2 words. Its the same for all the other characters too. This book was also far to short just like the rest of the series the combined total of all three books page numbers is 209 pgs. Thats a short book on its own, its definitely not enough for 2 books combined. If you hear anything good about this book I promise you that person is either lying or delusional. This a terrible series dont read it. Find something better. I promise you you can find something better written.

I'm sad to see this series end! Though the romance was completely cheesy and an insta-love type, sometimes it was sweet and I couldn't help devour it! And the super, steamy love scenes sure did help keep my eyes glued to my kindles screen!

Oh boy, another hot read from Ms. James! Truly panting melting material! I just couldn't get enough! And I'm excited to hear she's working on a full length novel, oh it's going to be good! I can already tell!

Overall Ms. James has become one of my favorite erotic authors! She sure knows how to get you in the mood with her sensual scenes!

“Do you like to watch?” He whispers this question into my ear as he tugs my thong to the side.

I don't answer him, but stay there in the shadows, and watch the couple in the VIP room. I can't look away. Watching them is turning me on more than anything ever has before.

Do I like to watch?

Yes…

“It was incredible, watching the way their four bodies moved together. The potent scent of sex is heavy in the air around us.”

5 watch me stars!! This book explodes with hotness and it’s so delicious!!!

Jack and Celia are at a crossroads with their friends Elle and Drew after the letter Elle sent saying she wants to sleep with Celia. Celia is torn, she wants to be with Elle but she doesn’t want to disappoint Jack. With the holidays coming up Jack uses that time to sweep Celia away to his parents, where he can get her mind off Elle’s proposition. While away, Jack takes Celia to an exclusive sex club where things get a little steamier than she had anticipated…..and now that she’s had a taste, will she want more?

I loved this ending. I’m not sure if this is the last we’ll see of Jack and Celia but if it is, I loved the way it ended. This book was so beyond sexy, I was hooked the whole time. I don’t think I ever put my kindle down while I read.

This was my first book by Bethany James and I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this story ,but I have to tell you this author can really write a hot and extra steamy story .This is Celia and Jack's story ,at first we fine Celia trying to make a decision , but she's afraid if she pushes to hard it could threaten her relationship with Jack. And she doesn't want to lose him ,but she wants to see where this salacious invite for Elle leads ,because she has to know or she could always be curious. Will Jack be able to trust Celia not let things get out of hand if their involved with another couple .Jack wants to make sure that she's makes the encounter about him,and he doesn't want her to disconnect with the situation . Jack teaches Celia the proper way to blend her wants of watching and her concerns of being with another woman okay. Boy I have to tell you this is a super hot and very steamy story and that you better have a fan set up by your chair to keep you from boiling over and melting away . I hate to see this story end. I could go on and tell you more about this great story ,but that would spoil it for you. I highly recommend that you read this story ,because you won't be disappointed I wasn't.

Hot damn. This novella was freaking sexually intense and if it doesn't get your lady bits screaming for attention - you might be dead. Seriously. Because the final installment in the Watching series, Watch, was filled with page after page of naughty and erotic goodness. Wooziers.

In the two previous volumes, Jack and Celia have surrendered to almost all of their fantasies together but there is one more tempting Celia. However, her newly found fascination with being with another woman might be the one thing that proves to be too much for this adventurous couple.

Their story unfolds at a fast pace and I was very curious how the situation would resolve itself. Would they say the hell with it and go for broke or would they play it safe?!?

I really liked how it all played out - the author finds a clever answer for the problem and I thought it was awesome how Jack fulfilled Celia dreams and desires while maintaining his own boundaries. It left me feeling completely intoxicated on Jack and Celia's love and lust for one another.

I devoured Watch - it was over the top entertaining. I loved Jack and Celia's romance and thought it a fun journey start to finish for this couple. The Watching series is crazy good - definitely check it out today!!

[Rachel · Rating 5 out of 5]

Damn, this series has been so freaking hot. I mean like panty drenching, thigh clenching, find your significant other as soon as you finish reading!!! Oh wait...that's what I did anyways. LOL

We've watched Elle and Drew in book one. In book two Jack and Celia consented to letting Drew and Elle watch them. That didn't go over so well. Jack really didn't care for it, and he really only went with it because Celia wanted to. What comes next? I would say ménage...maybe a foursome...maybe even an orgy...although I would think only three or four since it's really mostly Jack and Celia, and then Drew and Elle. Surprise...we get to meet Jack's family in Arizona...and Jack has a surprise for Celia. And damn...is it a sexy surprise...Bliss.

I'm not letting the cat out of the bag, let me just say this was phenomenally hot. I see so much of myself in Celia...unfortunately (in the bedroom, ok and out of it) my husband is nothing like Jack. My husband is the epitome of a vanilla shake...no sprinkles, no twist...nothing. PLAIN OL VANILLA. Alas, I love the big ol jerk, so I make do...that's what Bethany James and her Watching series is for.

5 just as sexy as the rest of them stars!

[Bethany · Rating 4 out of 5]

Just like Watching and Watched, these short stories are packed full of steamy scenes and the growing love between Jack & Celia.
I loved the journey that Jack & Celia had as a couple. Knowing what they want and don't want for each other as well as discovering these "wants" together was entertaining and hot as hell.

I loved watching them. Admit it...you like to watch too.

Freaking loved the ending!! After the way book 2 ended I so needed to know what Celia was going to choose.. Did she want to be with another woman? Would she betray Jack if she decided to? Ahh I want ot say so much but without giving away what all is in this book I cant. All i will say is this is a short read series and it is absolutely HOT!! I mean scorching, need a fire extinguisher for the kindle and a few spare pairs of panties...

Received advanced copy for an honest review

I loved reading more about Jack and Celia and seeing what they were up to now. Although things played out the way they did they played out the best way for this couple. I fell in love with this series from the very beginning and I enjoyed seeing what all was happening with these two, there was never a dull moment. Drew and Elle are a wonderful addition to Jack and Celia and I love seeing all of them interact.

[Debbie · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the conclusion of Jack and Celia's love story. It's picks up with Celia having a decision to make that could potentially destroy the relationship she has with Jack.

I'll say that I was happy with the direction this story went. Jack is such a wonderful guy and he deeply loves and cares for Celia. Celia appeared to have matured a great deal in this volume and she was much more likeable.

Quick, sexy series.

[Naughty Book Blog · Rating 4 out of 5]

The story didn't take me to the places I expected it to go, but I found it worked better than the route I thought it would take and it left me quite satisfied. Each book in this series was a quick and dirty fix. Intriguing, passionate and sensual. After reading this series, you might just find you have some voyeur fantasies of your own!

[Kym · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is definitely one of the hottest series I've ever read. These are short book filled with steam, dirty talking & off the charts chemistry. Loved Jack & Celia together. I hope there are more books in this fantastic series. Loved the writing & look forward to reading more stories from this author.

Super hot ending

Super hot ending to a super hot series. Celia and Jack have a very intense relationship. Jack and his alpha tendencies do not disappoint. Dirty, sexy and hot hot hot!

[Karen · Rating 5 out of 5]

I liked this book the best of the three. I am sorry to see this series done. Maybe we will get some more of them....hint hint hint.. These are short novella type books and as long as you love sex and sexual really sexual books you will love them. Jack and Celia are an awesome couple.

I eagerly awaited the 3rd Instalment Watch from Bethany James and could not put it down. Volume 3 takes Jack and Celia to a whole new Sexy and Hot Level

Just a hot sexy read. Plot - not so much. Well, maybe a little but not much.

4 Stars

I enjoyed the series. All three books were consistent in the quality and my interest. I would have liked to see more non-physical relationship development between the MCs.

[Bobbie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Must Read! Love this hot series!

[Stacey · Rating 3 out of 5]

Wish I hadn't have jumped in with both feet and bought the entire series - there's no storyline, just a lot of (repetitive) sex.

[Laura · Rating 3 out of 5]

No real plot to this story. I honestly thought Drew and Elle would have had more interaction with Jack and Celia. I did like that Celia was able to meet Jack's family, and how they adored her. I do wish there had been resolution with Celia's dad though.

Same as with the other two books, if you're looking for heavy steam with little story, then this is the novella series for you.

[Jaycie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Cannot put this book down! I want to read so much more. There is so much passion between the two of them that they can share with others… or others share their passion to them.
