Hall Pass is one HOT little tamale! L. Loren wrote a great unique story with Ari and Dallas’ chemistry flaming hot, and her writing pulled me in to make me feel as though I was there inside the story. I loved it and am looking forward to reading more of her work!
Hall Pass completely took me by surprise. The story started out with an enjoyable, humorous premise and turned into so much more. And the chemistry between the MCs was palpable. A definite scorcher. A great read with lots of depth and characters you root for.
3.5 Stars This writer is a good storyteller. The premise of the story was very refreshing and interesting, though I didn't completely buy into some of the coincidences that happened. Overall, I was definitely entertained by this story.
This was my first loverotica book of 2018! Have you ever made a Hall Pass list? I don't have an official one, but we have definitely talked about it at a girls night (or two)! In this book you will meet Ari and Dallas- he is a famous celebrity and she is a PR rep. He happens to also be her Hall Pass! On a bizarre turn of events, she actually runs into him and gets asked on a date. Not even hesitating, she takes this chance of luck, and rolls with it. She has no idea that her life is about to completely change! I loved this book because it was super sexy, flirty, and dirty! I could tell that Ari was a force to be reckoned with- I love a strong female character and she definitely put off that vibe. Ari is one of those women I feel like I could be friends with in real life Some of the scenes had me dying with laughter actually picturing them in my head. I finished it one day so if you are looking for a light, fun read then this is definitely for you! I am giving this book 3 stars because it was a good book and would recommend others to read it too! It a fun and enjoyable story to read, especially if you love Hollywood drama! Any woman that can take care of herself and remain true to her character is also refreshing to read about- and we need to be reading more books like that!

Review: Hall Pass is the first book in ‘The Walk of Fame Series’ by author L. Loren. This is an enjoyable quick read, with a sweet and sexy storyline. In this story, Ari has been dating Gerald for roughly two years. Ari is not completely happy in their relationship and mentions the concept of a hall pass. They both have fun coming up with a list of names, but they were not taking the idea completely seriously. I mean, in reality, how often do we get the opportunity to meet a famous actor/model and actually get the chance to sleep with them. It is a nice dream, and I’m all for hoping!
Well, Gerald puts together a list of roughly 20 model/actresses, but Ari has only one person on her list. That is Dallas Monroe. Unexpectedly, Ari literally bumps into Dallas the very next day! So, when he asks her out to dinner, she agrees happily! What will Gerald say when he finds out Ari is going on a date with Dallas? Several surprising twists caught me off guard. A fun and sexy beach read!
This was fun to read. While I've never really thought about a hall pass, this ia a convo ive2had with friends of mine that wanted to have one. Ari and Dallas are a pair that steam of the pages. This was a interesting idea and the author told it well.
Ari meets, quite by accident, the movie star she has pined for and never thought she would meet after getting a “hall pass”from her current lover. This was a really fun story with palpable characters that made me feel like I was hanging out with the girls. It was as really fun read with just the right amount hot romance and witty, funny banter. Definitely check it out!
This book started with such a cute theme. Then it cut deep into the heart of Hollywood desires, secrets, and scandals. Like other L. Loren books, Hall Pass is not afraid to take on controversial subjects, and flawed and hurting heroes and heroines. She digs into the root of their pain and insecurities and heals them with love . My only complaint is that I wish it was longer to dig further into the darkness, but bravo for taking on the tough subjects.
Hall pass by L. Loren is the fast-paced hot and steamy love story of Dallas Monroe and Ari Nicole Couture. In this novel the author takes the reader into their whirlwind romance of erotic sex and drama.
Dallas Monroe is one of the biggest celebrities in Hollywood. An “A list” awarding winning actor at the top of his game, Dallas is the “it" man in Hollywood capable of having any woman he desires.
Ari, a PR Rep living in Atlanta is a fairly simple woman living an ordinary life. One night as Ari and her boyfriend Gerald watches television, they agree to grant each other a one time hall pass. Giving one another permission to have sex with any celebrity of their choice if fate should allow them to cross paths. However, little did they know, actor Dallas Monroe, the one name on Ari's list would soon appear in their hometown changing the course of each of their lives forever.
In this book L. Loren succeeds at bringing the concept of a hall pass to life. She did a fine job of moving the story along with excitement and drama. There was never a dull moment.
Although the voice of Dallas is a likable one, I must admit, I struggled with finding his character, along with some of the scenes in the book, believable. However, with that said, l still found the story entertaining. With some very unexpected twists and turns, there were a few suspenseful moments that kept me wondering what would happen next.
Very successful in capturing the passion between Dallas and Ari, the author is not shy in her descriptions as she vividly details each erotic moment.
Overall, l found this to be an exciting read that took me into the steamy and sometimes complex romance of two individuals brought together by an unexpected meeting and a hall pass.
ARC for an honest review. I think there was some issues with my email so I didn't receive anything about when to post until 2 days after wasn't the fault of the author I just think Gmail went crazy. Anyways onto the review I enjoyed it Ari and Dallas were super hot and it was an amazing read I had fun reading this book. I think everyone will need to take a cold shower because some of the scenes between Ari and Dallas were hot hot hot.

I enjoyed this story so much, Ari and Dallas caught my attention. I liked how L.Loren described them in the very detailed way. These characters were so likeable and sexy, the flow is so well. That was easy to read. So I don't mind to check the series about Hollywood stars. I am on the way.
The one thing that confused me a little bit - I didn't see the identification of changing the povs. I would like to see the character's name in the povs. For example, Ari pov, Dallas pov. Then, it will be superb. Only this thing influenced on my rate. Pity.
Thank you for an amazing story! Looking forward to check others!
I thoroughly enjoyed this Romantic Adventure!! Just Deliciously Scrumptious. What an Awesome Storyteller, as if you’re right there with the characters. This Author gives the ultimate Visual experience.
I really enjoyed this book. Ari and Dallas start off their relationship in a very unconventional way but that doesn’t stop it from turning into more. Her boyfriend Gerald did her a favor by giving her that hall pass and I was so happy about what happened with their relationship. There were a few editing errors but not so many that it took away from the story
Wow!! This was my first book by this author and I am impressed. Ari and Dallas are the cutest couple ever. They both don’t have a problem with expressing how they feel and their attraction to each other is so pure and genuine. I finished this book in one day so that should tell you how good it is. I highly recommend this book.
So, Ari was so smart with her job but couldn’t think to read the food label 🥴🤔...umm Dallas and Ari started off totally wrong, but Gerald and Jess are even more messed up for sure! OMG to read what Dallas just made my heart go out to this character for sure! Happy to see their ending in great and I am looking forward to reading other books in this series to come!
Hall Pass is a non-stop read! D’Ari was the cutest couple. It was a rocky start but eventually knew they needed one another. Dallas is caring, lovable, sexy, strong, and down to earth. I loved him and felt his pain…..we are all human and men can show their emotions. Enjoyed and can’t wait for the next celebrity looking for love. Better not be with that damn Jess :)
Great Read! Dallas and Ari are truly meant to be. This story is filled with wintry, betrayal, drama and of course romance. Hall Pass is a great read for the holidays.
I have mad ❤ for the work created by L.Loren She is masterful with her creativity. You all need to pick up Hall Pass. I just loved this story. It was cute and funny. Just about every woman's fantasy came true for our leading lady in this story. So in this story Ari is in a long-term relationship with her boo who suggests they make a hallpass list or basically a one in a million shot list to sleep with a superstar/person of your dreams. You know thinking it would never happen. Well Ari actually gets this chance and this talented author made for a fantastic read detailing the drama that arises from the Hallpass of a lifetime. I absolutely enjoyed every minute of it. It was so creative, juicy, and humorous! Five 🌟 must read for sure!!!
This book was extremely fun to write. I love the glamour of Hollywood and the sexy men that rule it. It was a fantasy come true to walk in Ari's footsteps as she embarked on a sexy journey to claim Dallas' heart.
Dallas was voted the sexiest man in Hollywood, but he was so humble and down to earth that Ari couldn't help but fall for him. I hope as readers, you fall for him too. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more stand alone stories about Hollywood's elite in my Walk of Fame Series.
I was given this as an ARC for my honest review, and I'm so glad I was. L. Loren is new to me but she won't be for long. This story took a few turns I was not expecting.
Ari and Dallas set the pages on fire. Their chemistry is so hot. L. Loren wrote this so well I could feel the tension between them so strongly I felt like screaming at my screen.
I felt pity, happy, devastated, anger, disgust hopeful, strength, love, tenderness, and happy all over again.
The chemistry between Dallas and Ari is undeniable but Dallas' insecurities as a Hollywood sex symbol go deeper than first stated. I wish the author had prefaced that earlier on and allowed readers to unravel that mystery more organically rather than spring on readers near the end. The same goes for Ari's relationship with Gerald and Jess. That's a lot to drop in a nonchalant, oh-by-the-way scenario. Overall, the book was a good read but with so much potential.
First time reader. The story was cute and a good between dramatic book read. I like to call them pallet cleaners. I enjoyed both characters and their story. I found the story to be very tame.
I generally read steamy stories but this was an acceptable change.
Hope you enjoy Ari’s strength, her fierceness and how she loves as much as do. She is definitely someone I can relate to. I hope you enjoy Dallas. He is so kind, sweet and just wants to be happy and in love.
This book did give me the feels. They were just such a cute couple.
