5 stars isn't enough, Use Somebody deserves a 6, hell maybe even a 7!
Holy Shit. This was so good. I knew Amelia Oliver could write stories about incredibly hot motorcycle club members, and the women that steal their hearts, but I had no idea that she could write the hell out of new adult romance. Yes, I absolutely consider Use Somebody a hybrid new adult. Don't you worry, the good stuff we love about Plantain is still weaved into this story. The family aspect, the mostly lawful version of the motorcycle club, and the drama that comes along with living in a small town, but it is a love story revolving around young adults!
I think I say this every time I read a new book from this series, but Daisy is my absolute favorite. She was written so well, and was so easy to like. Yes she was flawed, and made mistakes. They were so relatable though.
Wyatt... sweet Jesus, I think I'm a little cock crazy for this one. His body is hot, his sex is hot, his mouth is inferno hot, and he is also a good guy to Daisy. It may take him a minute to figure his shit out, but what kind of story would this be if they were perfect from the jump?
I loved this couple together. I loved that the heroine and the hero needed to work on themselves and grow. I loved that they grew together. I loved that shit happens and they dealt with it. I loved that things weren't just peaches and cream. I also loved that at the end of the day these two trusted each other, and fell in love with each other. Nothing about this story felt rushed, or unbelievable. Amelia Oliver did a FLAWLESS job with these characters and making them multifaceted.
Each book she writes gets better and better, I can't wait to see what comes next!!

Wow!! Safe this for the hot duo!! Second generation is more kinky and more hotness. I really enjoyed the how the author matched these two together. They were born for each other. The plot thickens and blows your mind. The ending and epilogue was perfect!!!

Right. That's it. I'm moving to Plantain.
I get the logic behind the theory that as a series grows and develops, so do your feelings and attachments to its characters. But seriously? Fuck logic! What I'm feeling right now is more about the fact that Amelia Oliver is simply writing the shit outta this series!!
Use Somebody is absolutely an(other) epic romance read. It delivers exactly what we've come to love and expect in a Plantain Series book (novel or novella) - and then, it just keeps giving us more!
More family, more laughter and more love. More feeling, more drama and more depth. More heat, more passion, more heart and more... just MORE.
Daisy and Wyatt's story is smart, engaging, organic & something so special my words will never do it justice. They are the epitome of youthful desire & carnal experimentation, both of them looking for "something", neither expecting what they find. Certainly not expecting to find it in each other, but you simply can not imagine it being any other way.
During this read I laughed from my belly, I bawled like a baby and I overheated so many times I thought my inner thermostat was broken. I was pissed at out hero, I was pissed at our heroine, I was pissed at the world. My heart filled and broke for them both, but I held it together because of them too. Like Daisy said in the prologue - I was a mess - and I would not change a single moment of it.
So, I write this review knowing full well I will have a book-hangover of massive proportion & the only cure will be to go back to the gorgeous cover and start reading it all over again.

I love Daisy and Wyatt! This book is tied with Take on Me as far as my faves go. I really loved the progression of Daisy and Wyatt's relationship. Not only is their chemistry hot as hell but the way they freely explore their new "arrangement" is so honest and endearing at times that you can't help but root for them. Throw in a dash of suspense and this book keeps you on your toes from page one. Well done girl!
I love Plantain. I love Amelia Oliver and I highly recommend this series!

This book rocked my world. (1) I love books where the guy is pierced YOU KNOW WHERE. (2) I love books where the lady is also pierced in a similar fashion. (3) I love coming of age-type stories. (4) I love the wild, hot AF no-holds-barred sex scenes that have become a calling card for Ms. Oliver and her books. (5) I loved the dark sexual curiosity of both characters. And (6) anal (slow clap). I was not expecting the book to get any more intense than all that BUT IT DID. Awesome plot. You should read it. Highly recommend.

MY GOODNESS!! Daisy and Wyatt are all grown up! This was a great addition to the Plantain series. I love seeing the next generation grow up, mature and find love!
Like all books by Amelia Oliver, we don’t just read a romance novel, we feel and live it. We were there every step of the way as Daisy grows into her adventurous side with Wyatt!

Another fantastic read by Amelia Oliver. I LOVE her writing! From the first page to the last page I was thoroughly engaged with the story and I loved every minute of it. As a huge fan of the Plantain Series, this book was such a treat for me to read. Not only do we get a unique and fantastic coming of age love story with some very sexy and hot chemistry might I add, we also got to read about the kids of the couples that I fell in love with in previous books from the Plantain Series. It was so awesome to see Drag as a father! Loved this book and I recommend reading the entire Plantain Series!

Amelia never ceases to amaze me. Each book in this series only gets better and better. Her words, her story, [sigh] have me melting for each character and then some. I've said this once, I'll say it again...
TAKE ME TO PLANTAAAAAIIIINNNNN.

This was very different from the first two books. Firstly, the main characters are young 18 & 21 (I think) so its a whole different mindset. It's hard to explain but there wasn't a lot of story here it was more the sexual experimentation's between Daisy and Wyatt and eventually realizing that they loved each other and had for quite some time. My interest was peaked more in the last 2-3 chapters. It was good to still have interaction with the characters from the first two books though. There was the surprise at the end about Irys and Evan so I'm looking forward to reading the next book to find out how that happened.

As long as Amelia is writing it, I am reading it. That's all there is to it.
I was so excited to get a second gen story from the Plantain characters, and this one especially. I did not expect the story I got and man was I blown away. First off, the chemistry between Daisy and Wyatt was off the charts, the sexy scenes were SCORCHING and the complex tale that Amelia always weaves was so interesting and moved not just the story but the series along.
Well written, really engaging characters and such a sweet, sexy story.

Another amazing read by Amelia Oliver! I am Plantain obsessed and this book did not disappoint! Wyatt, Dornan and Maven's son is sexy, a dirty talker and just amazing! I loved him! I loved the way he was with Daisy. Daisy who is Drag and Skye's daughter, I loved her! She was sweet and the kind of girl I would want as my friend! Daisy and Wyatt had amazing chemistry and scorching sex scenes! I loved them together! They are perfect for each other! This is definitely a must read series!

Whew! I've become a huge fan of this series and all of the books have a pretty good heat level, but this one was off the charts smokin'! I'm always a little nervous about second generation books--like, will it be weird see these kids as adults doing adult things? Amelia Oliver had me forgetting that they were kids in previous books. I loved every dirty bit!

WOW! WOW! WOW!!!! I am a huge fan of Amelia and have been in love with Plantain and everyone in it since the first page of book one. We are now 4 books in and a novella to boot and there is just so much that is still going on. We got a sneak peak that there was going to be a Daisy and Wyatt at the end of the last book but I could not anticipate just how epic this was going to be. I probably say this about every book in the series but this is my absolute favorite, Amelia has never been shy with some sexy scenes but this one blows it all out the water. Daisy and Wyatt are legit #SexLifeGoals and had me sitting on the edge of the seat with drama and intrigue. As always there are twists and turns that you don't anticipate and drama that has you on edge but, I don't want to spoil this for you but I will say that you need your man or your B.O.B. on hand as well as some ice cream to help cool you down afterward.
I look forward to the next to novellas of this series and what Amelia will do after that.

A 5 STAR MUST READ MC SERIES!!!!!!
I have FINALLY gotten around to reading this series, and let me tell everyone, you HAVE to read it!!! OMG, I love it!! MC books are always one of my favorites, but this series took it to a whole other level! I'm also a huge music fanatic, and as you can guess from the titles of this entire series, music plays a big part in them and each one comes with an awesome playlist, so that definitely made me happy!
I will tell you a little secret, though...I had a friend suggest to me that I should read book 5, Free Bird (Sven and Missy's book, but also Owen, Shine, Jasper, Gwen, and Joseph's story) first, but ONLY part 1 and 2, and then go to beginning of series and read in order, including the novellas, which are 3.5, 4.5, and 5.5, then read part 3 of Free Bird when you get up to it! I am soooo glad I did this because although you don't have to, it definitely helped a lot to know the back story of the parents/grandparents and the MC so that you better understand everyone's relationships and how they all came to be a family!
With that said, this book is about Daisy (Nathan/Drag and Skye's daughter) and Wyatt (Dornan and Maven's son) and OMFG is it beyond scorching hot!!!! It's so different from the other books in this series, yet it fit perfectly and I never wanted it to end!! Daisy has had a crush on her bestie's brother for several years. When she turns 18 and thinks things will finally happen between them, he leaves town. But lord have mercy, when he returns and finally can't resist her any longer, an explosion of chemistry and hotness happens that blew me away and had me begging for more!! I freakin LOVE these two....their personalities, interactions with one another, the piercings (YASSSS), and everything else was just perfection!! Wyatt made me fall for him HARD and FAST!! From his strong, alpha attitude to his filthy, delicious mouth, he was everything!! This book is scorching hot so be ready!! :)
Can't say enough how much I love this series and how much you need all of these amazing people in your life!!!

As book four in the Plantain Series I feel like Daisy and Wyatt's book is so completely different to the rest of the series! That doesn't mean it wasn't the same standard of writing. I loved Daisy so much, seeing her growth from the beginning was amazing. Her growth sexually and the confidence she had was honestly inspirational! Wyatt was just so hot and just good and kind. The relationship and bond they had together was so special and strong.
Wyatt is going through a very hard time when the book starts. His grandfather has past away and he can't seem to focus on school etc. His feelings for Daisy are growing strong each day and he can't hide it anymore.
Daisy has always found Wyatt attractive but he is her best friends brother and close family friend, she would be disappointing everyone. When things get heated one night between them two they cross the line and there is no going back.
This book was so sexually charged and just down right dirty! I loved it though. Wyatt and Daisy were in to some kinky stuff and the dirty talk... WOW!!!! It was soooo hot. The ending was great, I loved the action, it got my adrenaline pumping. I did think the book was a little too long for my liking but other than that I highly enjoyed it.

OMG!! AO keeps getting better and better!! I Need more of this series asap!! ( like today please) I just can't get enough honestly I was a little sheepish about this book at first with it being a 2nd generation book but I was completely blown away Daisy and Wyatt mmmmm... This book I seriously can't even.. The other books in this series where so so so good but Use Somebody completely blew me away.. I love how all the books come together honestly AO did such a fantastic job with details !( Usually with 2nd generation books I'm lost like who's who but not with this series) Ok anyways Wyatt and Daisy ( who's parents we meet in book 1&2 ) have sizzling chemistry Use Somebody has some major ups and downs there is a force working against these two are they strong enough to survive together or will their love be torn apart? Everything will be tested! A must read yes like go ahead and get this series NOW this is one I need in paperback and not just on my kindle it's that GOOD!!

Ok so I always thought Dornan and Drag were the hottest. But wow Wyatt and Daisy are freaken explosive together I can't get over how hot these two are together. I swear some of these scenes are just so damn sexy you have fan yourself. And Wyatt omg this man has grown up into a sexy Male beast. I can't get enough of him. I think this book happens to be my favourite in this series along with Dornan and drag.
January 15, 2018
WOW WOW WOW. This book is hot and exciting and through the eyes of two young adults experimenting. I love how each book this author writes is totally different from the last. When you end one and start the next you don't know what bro going to get and that is an awesome thing! Even though its a series and they are all connected this author does a great job and separating each character. Daisy is spunky and free and Wyatt well let just say Wyatt is hot!! The two of them together....hot!

This is by far my favorite book in the series!!! This book had me fidgeting the whole time, it was sooo hot.
I mean Wyatt...come on, that boy will be starring in all of my dreams from now on.
I love how Daisy and Wyatt let go of their inhibitions with each other, no shame and no judgement. The chemistry is off the charts in this book. Their love was raw and real.

I have become somewhat Plantain Obsessed from this series and book four does nothing to lessen this, if anything Daisy and Wyatt's story just amplifies it. Their story is one of self discovery, young love and dealing with loss and change. If you like your books scorching hot then this book will burn you to the core. As these two characters discover their sexual needs and the feelings they have for each other your emotions will be chaotic. You will experience their highs and their lows, you will fight the frustration that they will throw at you as they each fight the war between their hearts and their minds. This book will definitely have you craving for more Plantain.

Each book in this series gets hotter and more intense. Daisy and Wyatt are a pair that can never get their fill of the things they enjoy and I'm perfectly content with reading about it. Daisy begins to discover she has a slightly different taste sexually then her friends do and more power to her for continuing on her own path with her desires. Wyatt is the perfect blend of naughty and nice, I would have no problem at all venturing with his naughty side. This story is filled with off the charts sexiness but there's so much more then that as well. The turn their story took had me in complete shock and on the verge of tears due to the events taking place. Their story is one that will stay with me, these two are my new favorite duo. Amelia Oliver has topped herself once again. I cannot wait to see what's to come next in The Plantain Series. You need to grab this book and fall in love with these characters as I have, you will not be disappointed. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.

How could this not be 5 effing stars with it being the offspring of Dornan, Maven, Drag and Skye?
Wyatt and Daisy have palpable chemistry in this coming of age story that have had us waiting since Drag and Skye's story.
Wyatt is at a loss of what to do after he suffers a loss.
Daisy is learning who she is while struggling with how to help Wyatt overcome that loss.
Together the two must learn to listen to their hearts while exploring their sexuality. They have to learn to explore the boundaries of their friendship while experiencing the depths of their sexual desires. They must learn to understand that their wants, needs, and desires are for each other.
When Wyatt's past comes back to hurt Daisy, they must learn that their family will accept them but will it be too late?

I really wanted to love this book to death and give it a 5. Star rating but I just couldn't. These books have either been a hit or a miss for me and that's unfortunate since this one was definitely a miss. I loved Daisy and Wyatt, I loved that Wyatt had feelings for Daisy all his life as they grew up together, what I didn't like was all the sex. I get it, they were exploring their sexuality and that's great but I do not need to read page after page if it. The story could have been so much more, but the sex just killed it for me.

I absolutely love the men in this series
