Appeal
Ava Rose spends her days impressing her bosses as a first year associate for a Las Vegas law firm.
She spends her nights hostessing at the Fever gentleman’s club downtown. Her two worlds give her very different rushes and she’s never had any reason to fear that they may collide.
That is, until she battles Christopher Cole in the courtroom. Christopher Cole is a shark of a lawyer who is used to getting what he wants.
Now, he wants Ava…
The attraction is instant and mutual, and Ava finds herself feeling the kind of lust she’d never imagined feeling before. A little digging leads Christopher to Ava’s moonlight career at Fever and, rather than turn her in to her bosses, he offers her a job at his own firm. But is Ava really going to take the easy route to advance her career? Is Christopher worth giving up her integrity?

This book should come with a warning; Seriously cold shower will be required on completion of this book. If it is a hot and steamy quick read you are after then this is the book for you. Just like the title this book has appeal and I mean some serious appeal. Christopher is a hot alpha lawyer who has sex appeal oozing from his pores and Ava gives him the impression that she is a little innocent flower but has Christopher met his match in the courtroom. The attraction between these two is instant and off the charts. Hazel Jacobs has done a fantastic job with this novella and has written some of the best sex scenes in a book that I have read to date. So if you are looking for a read that will have your kindle sizzling and your heart racing make sure you one click this book. I can't rate this book with stars as it just doesn't seem enough, so I am giving it five very HOT flames. If my review hasn't convinced you yet to read this book then just look at the cover, because those eyes will have you in a second. Ladies if you have ever thought about hopping on a motorbike but just weren't sure, then a scene in this book will have you ready to pull on your leathers and sit back and enjoy the ride.

"There's nothing like the feeling of a powerful woman draping herself over me."
Oh yeah this book is really hot. It's packed with hot passions, either in courtroom and gentleman’s club.
I love the power play between Ava and Christopher. They're totally perfect match for each other. None showing weakness, they're so determined to claim each other, to get what they want from each other. I really love their banters.
From the beginning, this book got me wondering who will win in the end or will they meet halfway and compromise.
I got the angst, the hotness, the hot stuff, and the love.
Yup I really enjoying and love this book. It leaves me wanting more.
If you love short, dirty and sexy novella...You must read this one.

I DO NOT OBJECT to Christopher Cole!
5 HUGE BISTRO STARS!
Ava and Christopher -
2 lawyers:
1 first year associate
1 Co-Partner to his own firm
Together = Off The Charts HOT!
They are as wise as they are sensual. The chemistry between this couple begins right away and out of the clear blue when poor Ava is left to defend her client alone against the "Big Bad Christopher Cole", an older charismatic man who has a winning streak in the court room and apparently in the bedroom too.
When these two characters come together for the first time, there is a very intriguing mystery of who is the dominating individual because they both are very strong willed. It brings me to one of the big reasons why I also adored this book - I love a strong minded heroine and Ava is just that ALTHOUGH - her best quality is she gives and takes - but you'll have to read all about this to see how yummy this story is.
"I’m not some little flower who wilts when her man takes an interest in someone else. I run this club. This is my domain. And it’s about time I reminded him of that."
And finally, the fact that this is a quick read - a story like this would be challenging if it were not written correctly. (IMO) You could completely crossover boundaries that shouldn't be crossed if the story isn't quite there yet. Hazel Jacobs gives you the beginning to a great thought out story and inserted a meaty, juicy plot and then a satisfying conclusion. There was no unrealistic storylines consisting of things that would never happen. It's well written from beginning to end.
Loved It! Read It!
This author has now knocked me off my socks 5 times in a row!

This was my first book by Hazel Jacobs and I loved it!! The short novella was sweet and sexy.
I love Ava's character, she's a strong independent woman. That knows exactly what she wants and does not hesitate to go for it.
During the day Ava works at a law firm as an attorney, and at night she enjoys running a gentlemen's club. Both total opposites, but finds satisfaction in both in different ways.
When Ava meets Christopher Cole the attorney she would go head to head in a case she was thrown into at the last minute. She can't help feel an intense attraction towards him.
His presence is intoxicating and his dark hungry eyes made her want to submit to his every command.
The chemistry between Ava and Christopher was instant and extremely hot!!
Things start heating up when Christopher finds out Ava also works at Fever The gentleman's club.
Ava never intended for both her worlds to collide.
I consumed Appeal in one sitting and when it was over I wanted more of Christopher and Ava. You will definitely fall in love with this two.
If you like an assertive man who also rides a Harley and knows how to satisfy a woman this is definitely the book to read. I recommend adding Appeal to your TBR shelf. AN ABSOLUTE MUST READ!!

I'm ruling that Appeal deserves more then 5 stars, I loved each and every second. Ava Rose has much more to her then meets the eye and it doesn't take the sexy alpha male Christopher Cole long to figure that out. The chemistry is nothing short of I'll have what she's having please, hot damn they're that good together. You wouldn't have to ask me twice to get on Christopher's bike, I'm adding that to my wish wish of things to try. Great read from the beginning till the very end. It's hot, sexy and a MUST READ! This is my unbiased and voluntary review.

Fast-Paced & Sexy
Not sure what I was expecting but I'm pleasantly surprised by this engrossing short story. It's a bit insta, probably to save time, but it's still a thoroughly enjoyable read. Christopher Cole is a successful attorney, a bad boy on a motorcycle, and a domineering alpha all the time. Ava Rose is a newly minted attorney with a potentially controversial second job and plenty of starch in her spine. Despite the gap in their ages and careers, they might be the perfect match.

Hazel Jacobs continues to impress me with her amazing storytelling. Appeal is a fiery and sexy novella about two lawyers, Ava and Christopher, who have an instant attraction as they battled it out in the courtroom. Although there is a huge age gap, their chemistry is undeniable. Christopher is the total alpha male who stops at nothing to get Ava working for his firm as well as into his bed. And as much as Ava doesn’t seem to have the confidence in the beginning, she becomes quite the match for him. This novella packed quite the romance, and that motorcycle scene—totally HOT!

Wowww
Omg please tell me Christopher and Ava get a full novel! I MEAN, IT CANT END THERE! It just can't! Oh my god I seriously couldn't get enough! It's hot, it's sexy and down right panty-dropping, I had to stop reading to calm myself down! I've always been a fan of Hazel Jacobs but she has taken it to a whole other level! I devoured this book and J can't wait to "hopefully" devoured more of these two!

I enjoyed this short story - It was sexy and fun, and I loved the characters. I wanted a bit more from it, but that’s the sign of a talented author. She gave just enough to make it a great read, but withheld a few points to make your imagination run. The ending felt rushed to me, however, it was meant to be a short story and not a full length novel.
Hazel is a talented author who has become a one-click for me. I look forward to reading more from her!

Hot and dominant!
Love this book! It was a sexy and fun read. Even though it was short it didn't leave you unsatisfied except for only wanting more of Ava and Chris. Their chemistry was hot! I love Chris dominant nature and Ava's feistiness. I can't wait to read more of Hazel James stories. This was my first and I was definitely not disappointed.

If you are looking for a quick read that is seriously hot this is the book for you! Once again another great book by Hazel Jacobs. A small snippet in the lives of hard arse lawyer Christopher and softly spoken Ava but don't let her fool you she has him pegged from the start. He may like to be in control but his little rose is no shrinking violet and will make Christopher realise that sometimes compromises have to be made. After reading this you will not be able to look at a motorbike the same way again.

I thank the author for providing a copy to voluntarily review.
Appeal is a short read. Short but sweet. And very hot.
I really liked the scenes where Ava takes the command. Where she tells Christopher what to do!
If you want something short and hot to read, then I highly recommend this book!

Appeal is a read that you don't want to miss! This was short with a whole lot-ta sexy! Two Lawyer's, Christopher and Ava who in the courtroom are just as hot for each other as they are in club Fever's room. Quick read with tons of dominance and sexy scenes.

This a great steamy novella about two lawyers, my only complaint is that I wish it was a bit longer I feel like there could me a bit more to their story.

Hazel Jacobs always delivers.
Ava Rose and Christopher Cole are sizzling in this novella. Although a quick read...You will not be left wanting.
Two lawyers. One prominent and well into his career. One just starting out and working a second job to supplement her income.
Her quick wit and brains help her in the courtroom. Her sex appeal and looks help her outside the courtroom against him. Did he ever really have a chance?
Another 5 steamy star read!

This was a hot, steamy quick read. I loved the immediate attraction between Christopher and Ava. Two strong, confident characters. Well written. Easy to picture the characters and scenes in my head, especially the HOT motorcycle scene.
This was my first read from this author. I was not disappointed and will definitely read more of her work in the future.
