I admired Dawn's tenacity and determination. Her sister's case had gone cold but she was willing to put herself on the line to find her. Although this story had a dark feel to it, the author rewarded us with heavy doses of erotica to lighten its theme.

I'm not a fan of menage relationships. Ask anyone. Sorry, not sorry. I can appreciate a scene but when it gets to something deeper than that, my brain shuts off and I lose interest. That wasn't the case here. What's hotter than a gorgeous man who is totally into you and can satisfy you in ways no other man has? How about two identically gorgeous men?! I loved the dynamic between Dawn, Xander and Alex. From Alex we got the sweetheart with a tender touch and with Xander we were served a hot plate of Alpha male with a whole buffet of passion.

There was a tense undercurrent because of Angel's disappearance and when it all came to a head, many questions were answered and many were left unsolved. I'll be staying tuned because the biggest question is: what really happened to Angel?

Genre: Romantic Suspense
Type: Standalone book 1 of 3 from Club Nymph series
POV: First Person - Female



For the past year, Dawn Darcia dedicated herself to only one thing - to find her missing sister. Armed with her body, she became Violet, a stripper at the exclusive Club Nymph to find the missing connection in her quest.

What she found was not answer, but more questions to add to the puzzle. And it didn't helped when she caught the attention of the well known VIP members, the Vincent brothers who could possibly distract her from her mission.



The Vincent brothers were not just brothers, but twins - twice the distraction :p

“Eat my pussy like you’re starving,”


Violet knew what she wanted and she would do anything to get it.



Xander was the serious workaholic. He was darker and moodier, and he did everything with a purpose.



Alex was the cheeky fun loving twin. He never feared in being his true self. Naturally, he's my preferred twin lol!

Violet is a story of a woman on a personal mission to find the one she lost, and found a new purpose in life while at it. It's a trilogy, but book 1 can be read as a standalone.

My STELLAR


I must say this is a great storyteller, in front of you, on these pages...
and she's telling a story of the search for answers, finding and dealing with the hidden truths and even more deceitful lies that are shadowed then blinded by the glittery spotlight, where the most devious minds sit right next to you, breathe the same air as you.

Dawn is in that perilous search and she's thrown into a suspenful, eroticized world of spotlight and nightlife...in the midst of a stripclub, Dawn under the alias Violet will not only find the dreaded truth but she' ll also lose her heart...to the biggest doubled up temptation of two completely the same yet very different men.

I loved the pace in the storytelling, it's a go with the flow kinda thing and you are just engulped by it...you let the words lead you through it all.

The suspense factor is present at all times and it's really well developed towards the end, making you suspicious of everyone and no one...and then BAM...
it hits you right in the middle...and then you say..."dammit, I knew it, I bloody knew it!" Yeah, riiight! LOL

The story is interwoven with steamy eroticized scenes - from pole dancing sequences to the actual intercourse between the characters, and fucking yes, it's a MENAGE...
those scenes being highly intense and almost palpable...and vivid, *high five*, even though I somehow found the transition from attraction, carnal chemistry and sexual pull towards the "I love you" a bit sudden...but to tell you the truth I'd proclaim "my love" towards one of the "doubled up temptations" LOL and I'll leave it a secret...my own guilty pleasure!

*wink*

For a debut novel, this is highly recommendable read, if you want to indulge yourself with mistery, suspensful romance with scenes that will give you goosebumps and raise your pulse to the max...

Looking forward to the next installment...

I don’t know what I was expecting here but…

Jesus Fucking Christ.

Can that be my review? Because I have no idea how to express my thoughts on this book in actual intelligible words and sentences.



Quick, think of something you enjoy in your reads…

Do you like humour?

Do you like hot sex?

What about suspense?

Angst?

Tension?

A plot that keeps you guessing?

We all love a sexy and funny hero, right?

We also love the serious mysterious heroes too, right?

What about a strong heroine?

Can’t forget the secondary characters, they need to be on point too, right?

Have I asked about hot sex that will set your panties on fire yet?



Now take all of these elements and multiply your enjoyment of them by two and you may have an inkling on how enjoyable and exciting and intriguing and just absolutely fucking hot this book was.



Abby Gale knocked this one out of the park! I can hardly believe that this is a debut novel. The story is expertly weaved and perfectly paced and I was nailed to my seat from the very first word. It is beautifully descriptive and deliciously explicit. And you get not one, but two hot as all hell heroes! Together. Absolutely read this book!

Wow, what an enjoyable, suspenseful, smoking hot story that was??? After a mysterious disappearance and the police not able to do anything about it Dawn took the matters in her hands in order to learn what happened to her beloved Angel, so she starts working "undercover" as a pole dancer Violet. She tried to got in Angel's shoes and learn what was going in this club and who is behind her disappearance.

This story has so much mystery making you all the time trying to play the detective to figure out who is the guilty one here and who wants to hurt Violet...it was so motivating story it is impossible to get bored by this masterpiece combined with all the twists and the explicit sex scenes...well it was explosive (words are overrated sometimes)..



Another surprise in Dawn's life will be the Vincent brothers...and ohh boy how much i loved those two heroes, they were a complete package the one filled exactly the other one. Both sexy alphas Xander was the serious workaholic with the mystery/dominating/dark vibe and Alex was the flirtatious/playful boy with the bright vibe who constantly gave Dawn the hope and stating the good facts of the events.



I don't wanna spoil anything but trust me this first installment in the series is fantastic the author did an exquisite job there were some really blew-minding facts in this one ,i totally recommend it and can't wait to read the second one (i hope the heroine will be the one in the end of the book and this story will more dark!!!)

Suspenseful! Sexy! Passionate! Intimate! Lustful and Engaging!


Let's talk naughty stuff first!
I write naught stuff for a living and I have to admit...I was sitting forward, eye's locked to the screen at some the scenes in this book!

Did some one call for a smexshy sandwich!? Well! Orders up!

The Vincent Brothers are the yummy delicious bread and Violet is the tender, sweet n spicy - You want more and more of her in the middle!

Let's talk plot line.
Violet had no idea what she was getting herself into. She had the grit to stick through it all and had some amazing help! And her enemy was something she wouldn't have been able to handle!

Lets talk that ending
I was like What!? That's crazy! So yes this is a stand alone but be sure there's definitely more going on so I look forward to reading book 2!


I don't want to give any spoilers away. So if you're dying to know...you must get a copy. = D

Now...I'ma go work on my DP scenes... I't appears I have some competition from a lovely and talented author named Abby Gale.

Let’s begin saying that this gave me such a nice and thrilling

I mean come on!!! u just need to take a look to the book cover, and u won’t be able to deny that u r already intrigued by it!

Believe me when I tell you that just with reading the first pages of the book, u’d be already clue to it asking for more and more until your thirst for unravel all the misteries around Angel, Dawn and The Vincent Brothers…will be sated.



So Let’s see, we have


Violet is a girl so focus in finding her dissappered sister, so the only way she finds to attempt this is getting right where she was at the end…working in the club Nymph…which will also lead to her finding awesome and evil people and just as her real pleasures as well.







------------------------





So, remember those goosebumps u have when u meet a handsome an lickable man? Well imagine just how u might feel if that pleasure multiplies for the double and promises to make true any kind of dirty hot fantasy that u ever had?

Yeah!! I’d be gasping as well XD

So these guys jump in Violet’s life of the more unexpected way, and since the very beginning neither of them will be able to stay away from her for long.

Playing with her giving her rough & gentle as fun & fire, and so many other things that will help her to find her very own piece of heaven hot heaven, if that even exists =D , and that will also find themselves in this dangerous journey to find Angel.





If u are into suspense, action and adrenaline….u r gonna get mad trying to figure out what is everyone up to in this book.



And if u have a thing for going into detective mode while reading… then u will more than enjoy meeting and suspecting o every single character that will appear on the story.




And at the end? Wow!!! that end..will leave you like…



And then just:




------------------------------------------------------

No word
Just gonna head to do the review ASAP
This is the first book in a really long time I read in one GO, that would be more than enough for you to have assumptions of how this book was for me

PS.The rev might be a bit long hehe

“His eyes weren’t an escape. His gaze was a prison. Domineering, determined, lustful and possessive.”



I am always cautious whenever the heroine is a dancer because I wanted to feel the passion, the feeling of being in love with the song and the emotions it stir within a person. Pole dancing on the other hand is on a different class. It is making love with the pole and being able to channel the passion through one's body.

I was just starting a few pages and the book got me already. Like I felt I was the one dancing, letting the song take me away and feeling liked I'm drugged in ecstasy. As mostly with my reads, I go in blind without reading the blurb and the only thing I know is that Violet is going to be a strip pole dancer.

It was a roller coaster ride of emotions, to be honest. The prologue made me high and pumped with adrenaline and then the succeeding chapters were like a slow cool down building to something intriguing, something that needed to be exposed. Mystery, intrigue, suspense, romance, and bout of well, my favorite. *wink*

I always love when there's a contrast with characters and how an author can make it work that each one would just complement the others. No beginning, no end. Just that there's three of them trying to work out a relationship.

Abby Gale, you did give me a wild ride. I cannot wait for more of what's to come!

Did I love this book?

It has a little bit of everything!

I loved Violet / Dawn from the beginning
[and not JUST because her name is Dawn].


You are on a roller coaster right from the beginning. It was full of excitement & suspense! I wanted to jump out and yell PLOT TWIST at every turn!


I loved the Twins! Polar opposites but together the perfect guy!
They were so hot, each in their own way!

& the scene where

The debut novel from Abby honestly blew me away!
I can't wait to see what she does next!

ARC provided in exchange for an honest review.

I want her. Any way I can.

Violet knows the club has something to do with Angel's disappearance and she's willing to sink herself into the world of stripping if it means finding answers. She doesn't plan on loving how she feels on stage or on meeting the handsome Vincent brothers that want to share her. As she begins to get to know the other club workers and piecing together Angel's old life she finds herself wanting her old life from two years back as well. Xander and Alex bring out the real her, the funny side, the trusting side, and the sexual side. Their opposite personalities support her in her quest, helping as the clues bring her closer to the truth. The clock is ticking though, on Angel's life and on Violet's heart.

"Too bad. You're eye-catching, Violet. And trust me, it may be a dangerous thing," he said to my ear.

Violet is definitely an erotic suspense if you're looking for the best of both worlds. The characters are all attractive, driven by their desires and each determined to get what they want, though for different reasons. I loved Violet's one track mind, normally that could drive me crazy, but it makes sense for the situation. As the novel progresses she really transformed as a character, weaving together her personal story and Angel's missing person's case. I really enjoyed watching her refocus on herself, finding that her previous couple years of life hadn't left time for her own growth. Then there's Xander and Alex, how yummy. The men are polar opposites, except for their looks, and they make for an interesting duo when it comes to the menage pairing. I really like how much their push and pull with Violet forced her to learn to rely on others. Now for the suspense plot line; it was so well developed and leaves you guessing at every turn. I totally played Whodunnit the entire time I was reading. The entire book flows so well, equal parts hot, smutty, tension-filled, and even a bit romantic.

I can also see that this problem takes pieces from your soul... Don't let it.

I was so incredibly impressed with Abby Gale's debut novel, Violet is the kind of book you don't put down. I honestly didn't want to work, because I knew more was coming. It left me guessing, eager for the answers that are troubling Violet and very eager for more moments with the handsome Vincent brothers. There were some spelling and grammatical errors, however I did not find them taking away from the story too often. I think another round of fixes would make this book a 5 star read, so don't let the minor errors get to you, they don't matter in the grand scheme of things. The book is first person POV and though I don't normally like it, I found myself really picturing the role of Violet as my own. This is definitely a perfect example of don't just assume you won't like something without trying it, because I was totally hooked on this sexy and suspenseful novel.

Violet is a stand-alone sexy contemporary menage (MFM) romance. Dawn Darcia is on the hunt for her missing sister. She’ll stop at nothing to find information and gather clues. Her investigation leads her to Club Nymph. Violet becomes an exotic dancer at the club in order to investigate its employees. She immediately gains the attention of the sinfully handsome Vincent twins. But who can she trust? Will she find her sister before it’s too late?
What I liked about this book: Absolutely gorgeous cover. Yes, I like visually stimulating covers.
Dawn – the heroine is brave, sexy, and feisty. I love her spunk.
The storyline is interesting and intriguing.
Sexy twins and steamy bedroom scenes. Yep…nough said.
This book has it all: Romance, suspense, and great main characters.
My issues with this book: Lack of editing. I’m an English major so certain errors jump out at me. I’m not overly critical of minor issues because we’re all fallible, but there were missing words and a few poorly constructed sentences.
More background information on the twins would have been nice too.
Overall, this was an enjoyable read, but it could have been so much better. With proper editing and a few minor tweaks, this could have been a 5 Star Read.

I rate it: 4 Double Sexy Stars

Where do I begin? Holy smokes this book was intense from the beginning right to the very end and I loved every second. Dawn aka Violet is searching for her sister Angel and has started working at a club where her sister last worked to try and find clues. She meets the twins and hot damn what I wouldn't do to be introduced to these brothers. This book has everything you could want in a story, sexiness? Yes, suspense oh yeah, and even mystery. I couldn't believe some of the events that took place, I was gasping saying "no freakin way!" at times. I cannot wait to hear Angel's story. Absolutely LOVED this story. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.

OH-MY-GOD!!!!!!!!!

Jesus! I love this book! I think I read it in record time!

I'm a little bit sorry that practically from the very beginning when Dawn got into the club, it was clear who was behind Angel's disappearance.
But that definitely doesn't change my mind about this book.

And I have some inner feeling the story of Angel will be much more interesting. Can't wait to read it.

well I am not a massive fan of a ménage story & would normally not read it, but I am so glad stepped out of my comfort zone with this !
This was a story of Dawn looking for a her missing sister Angel, which lead her to getting a job at club Nymph.
it had quite a few twists & turns along the way.
and the hot intense relationship between Dawn, Xander & Alex, was just simply brilliant,
this book kept my attention all the way through, and did keep me guessing till the end !
the only downside I would say it the ending, it just felt a little rushed, but apart from that a brilliant read :) and it was Free ! xx

Dawn Darcia is desperate enough to find her missing sister Angel to become Violet a pole dance at Club Nymph, the last place anyone saw Angel alive. Dawn is convinced that someone at the club knows what happened to her sister. But deep down Dawn/Violet is enjoying the part she is playing as a stripper being free to express herself. She is drawn to the women at the club & fits in with them & believes they cannot have had anything to do with Angel’s disappearance. But she has reservations about the male employees, feeling uncomfortable around many of them. While working at the elite club, Violet finds herself involved with the Vincent twins, two of the VIP clients. Dawn grows to trust these men & she tells them the truth about who she is & what she is doing at the club. The twins help her with her quest to find Angel & a strong relationship evolves between the three of them. Will Dawn find Angel? Will Angel be alive? Will Dawn find love with the Vincent twins or is it just a fling?

I truly enjoyed this story, the mystery & the love triangle. My one problem & huge pet-peeve is when books are published that haven’t been properly edited. This books needs a lot of work. I’m torn because I want to rate the story itself highly but the effort poorly so I choose the middle to compromise. This book is intended for mature readers & contains lots of sexual scenes.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Read Copy of this book.

*Sexy, Twins, Mystery, Dancer *
This book will have you sitting on the edge of your seat. You don't want to miss out on this hot book.

Dawn is on a mission to find her missing sister Angel. The local police have closed the case. Deep down Dawn knows her sister is still alive and out there somewhere. Angel's last where abouts was at Club Nymph. Dawn becomes a dancer there to see if she can find out any information. Dawn's stage name is Violet.  Violet is pulled to serve drinks in the VIP section. Her eyes lock with a man whose body screams sex/power.

Xander Vincet is a VIP member at Club Nymph and is drawn to Violet like a moth to a flame. Alex Vincent is Xander's twin brother and is the calm, cool, down to earth guy. Xander is stern, strick and powerful. The Vincet brother's  offer Violet a job modeling.

Things get HOT between Violet and the Vincet brother's. Later she finally finds a clue about Angel and has a breakdown. She fills in the brother's and they will stop at nothing to help find Angel.

Read Violet to find out just how HOT Violet and the Vincet brother's are and if Angel is found. Looking forward to the next book.

Wowser, what an absolutely fantastic, hot, suspenseful debut novel by Abby Gale.

From the very first page I was hooked, the sensuality was crawling of the page in the opening scene & I knew this was a read I wouldn't be able to put down. I was disappointed.

Dawn is searching for Angel, she has that feeling deep down she is alive & contrary to the police giving up the search for her, she has spent the last 2 years preparing, focusing on the one place that may hold the answers - Club Nymph. In order the find the answers that she knows in her soul the Club holds, Dawn must become Violet - a pole dancer who exudes sexuality & sensuality

Violet is erotic, captivating & siren while dancing, easily loosing herself to the moves, the freedom & the feeling of power she has over herself & her audience. She can 'feel' the darkness,in the Club, the evil scares her, all she can hope is that she is strong enough to face it head on & find the answers that have consumed her over the past 2 years.

Club Nymph however also unleashes the old Dawn, it awakens the passion & sexual desires she has kept hidden. As soon as she meets the Vincent Brothers she is captivated by their beauty, their presence, the way they can control her body & mind. The thought of them both ignite her soul & she knows that she needs them both.

I hate spoilers, so at this point all I am going to say damn ladies, you are going to fall hard for the Vincent boys. Xander & Alex are absofreakinlutely divine in every way. Hot as sin, they will undoubtedly melt your panties, leave you breathless & wishing that you were Dawn just for a Day ( yeah who am i kidding - at least a year lol ) Dominant, passionate, strong, powerful, loving, caring, possessive - these boys have it all & then some.

Abby managed to bring to life all of the characters beautifully, not just the main ones. The suspense & darkness was perfectly entwined with the sex & passion. Truly a superb debut & I cant wait for more. A massive 5 star recommendation from me

What can I say about this book...well what would you do to find your missing sister? You get a job at the club she disappeared from. Violet has been searching for her missing sister and since the cops have closed the case because there is no evidence of Angel's whereabouts. Violet gets the job as a pole dancer at Club Nymph and now how to go about asking questions of the employees without giving herself away? Along the way she has caught the eye of the Vincent Brothers (Xander and Alex) and there is definitely an attraction to both, why because they're twins. Violet has also caught the interest of the person responsible for Angel's disappearance, violet is now the obsession. With the attraction Violet has for the brothers she gives in and let's herself go and be her old self before Angel went missing.

Abby you did a great job writing this one can't wait for #2. Everything flowed and using the characters POV in first person is my favorite kind of writing.

Violet by Abby Gale

This book really surprised me I didn’t know what to expect when I started reading it has a little bit of everything in it
This is the Authors Debut book and I tell you I can’t wait to read the rest of this series it had me from page one.

I really Liked Violet from the start she is such a feisty women and is determined to find out what happened to *Angel* who is Angel? you will have to read to find out.

Violet Goes searching for Answer to Try and find out what happened or find Angel she ends up taking a job in a club called Club Nymph because that is where the Trail ends for Angel so this is where Dawn/Violet search begins.

This story is full of Mystery and it keeps you guessing and who is guilty and who isn’t. and through the book you get a POV from an unknown and they want to have Violet and do what to her?

A few Twists I really didn’t see coming.

I loved The Twin Brothers the Vincent brother’s holy hotness.

Xander is the dark and the moodier Twin whereas Alex is laid back and more sweet of the Two….
I really enjoyed the secondary characters.

This is a 3-part series but book 1 can be read as a standalone. I can’t wait for the next books in this series.

Dawn has given up the past year to look for her missing sister Angel. She became Violet a stripper at the exclusive Club Nymph the last place Angel was seen. There she caught the attention of twin brothers Xander and Alex. Violet is a mind blowing super hot mystery full of suspense, humor, angst and hot hot sex! There's an element of danger woven into the story that has you on the edge of your seat. This story excited me because it was different than any book I've read before. There were so many twists and turns in this story and just when you think you've got it figured out something happens that will blow you away. I can't wait to read Angel's story. I highly recommend Violet to everyone looking for a great book to read. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

The first book in a three part series of standalones, Violet is Dawns story. When her search to find Angel leads her to Club Nymph, dawn (under the name Violet) soon lands a job there. Hoping to find more clues, Violet isn't looking for a man. Or two men. Not knowing who to trust, Violet finally admits she needs help.
I really enjoyed this book. The characters are all likeable, its hot, full of twists and it kept me guessing as to what would happen next. Loved the brothers. Dark, broody Xander and laid back, sweet and funny Alex....everything a woman wants in two sexy packages.
Will definitely be reading the next book in the series.

This was my first read by this author, and I truly enjoyed it. It’s the first in the series and is about Violet, a stripper who works at Club Nymph. One night she meets the Vincent brothers, Xander and Alex. Sparks fly between the three of them. Violet is looking for her sister Angel, who disappeared. Will the Vincent brothers help her? Will she find her sister? I loved this story and the way the writer describes her characters, it’s as if you can really envision them. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series!

Dawn's sister is missing. In order to find her she immerses herself in a dark seedy world to do whatever it takes to find her. In the meantime she deals with a few hurdles, changes, danger, intrigue and mind blowing sex. Well sex sells in this business either the show or the actual thing. She's no prude but this is more than she ever imagined and every girls dream. . . well maybe just the naughty ones.

This isn't like the other books I have read by this author. Violet is dark with possible triggers for some, hot scenes, intrigue and ugliness. A great story with strong kick butte characters.

Angel, Violet's sister, disappeared and Violet aka Dawn decides to do her own investigation, because the police after 2 years of investigation classified the case as a "cold case". So she begins working as a stripper at the exclusive night club where her sister worked before disappearing. There are a lot of suspects, the suspense was great and the end was kinda shocking.

While working in the club she falls in love with the twin brothers Xander and Alex Vincent, who were VIP members of the club.
All her life she had this fantasy of being with twins and it's like a dream comes true for her. The brothers are identical twins, sexy and rich but the total opposite of each other. While Xander is a businessman dark, moody and dominant, Alex is a photographer, sweet and romantic. So they're the perfect combination of what she wants in a relationship.

I enjoyed the love story, but what didn't make me give a higher rating, is that sometimes the dynamics of their story felt rushed. It was all too quick how the heroine only after one night spent with the twins told them her secret and all about herself. The twins were like a mystery, beside Alex and Xander's jobs, not much was revealed about them for most of the book. She moved living with them 2 days after and they were acting all so in love so soon. I would have liked to see their love and connection develop. The sex was steamy hot though.

On the other hand the thriller/suspense part was developed really good. And I really enjoyed it!!

Book 1 is a stand alone. Book 2 isn't yet out and will be about Angel, and I can't wait to read her story...because the final chapter of book 1 reveals a dark secret about her and her kidnapper, I didn't see that one coming. That was a really interesting angle of the story.

I happen to stumble across Abby Gale in a reader group I joined and asked for Arc’s to read of her Club Nymph books. I’m an avid reader and for some reason these books just called to me...! I think this was one of the BEST DECISION I’VE ever made! I usually don’t read books by authors I’m not familiar with, unless it’s by an author I know and have read there books or if someone recommends them to me and I check out the reviews. (Also the price) I really enjoyed this book and I didn’t know what to expect when I went in blind to start reading it.

I was thinking it was going to be your typical BDSM book about Doms and subs... but it’s the complete opposite of that. It had me hooked from the first page and I couldn’t put it down. It was just enough to keep you wondering what was going to happen next and the banter between the characters were hot. There was secrets, suspense, angst, love, lust, sex and lots of humor! This book had me in my feels. I loved it.

Angel is missing and Violet is trying to find her. Violet starts working at the club that Angel use to work at and while dancing she meets the twins Xander and Alex. (SWOON) twins right? I mean come on now? Both with blue eyes and dark hair? (She had me at the blue eyes! I’m a sucker for those) While Xander was the dominant, serious and cut throat twin, Alex was the loving, caring, sweet twin. Complete opposites with two different personalities but brothers none the less... that had each other’s back and loved Violet enough to help her. Everything was just enough and made you understand what was happening in the book.

I’d recommend this book and Now on to Angel!
