Second Chances.
Commitment.

Janae hasn’t dated anyone since her last boyfriend in High School and hasn’t had any desire to either. She manages the bar at the hottest co-ed revue in Las Vegas and the last person she expects to walk in, is now standing at her bar with her boss.

Kai leaves his life on the road to settle back home. He doesn’t expect to see his ex-girlfriend, the one woman that no one can compare to in his new place of employment. The one woman who left him without a real explanation, who broke his heart.

Janae and Kai try again to give their romance a second chance, but Kai’s best friend comes to visit and it’s unclear if he has ulterior motives. Will secrets be revealed and if so, will it tear Kai and Janae apart?

Oh my goodness!!! I absolutely love Tapped by Tarrah Anders! I loved Janae in the other books in this series, and I love her and Kai in Tapped. This entire series has been great! If you want a sexy, hot and entertaining read, this is it.

Kai and Janaes second chance love story was epic! The finale of the night moves series doesn’t disappoint! I’m (in general) not the worlds biggest fan of second chance romances, but when your favorite lady puts the words down you read them!

Loved every page of this- the dancing, choreography, the sensuality and (I mean duh) a little ménage isn’t bad either! The staff at the essentials is as solid (and growing) as ever, and our favorite bartender is getting hers.

A steamy read, that also packs a punch to the heart <3 definite fab of this installment and the entire series!!

To Vegas we all shall go ;)

TAPPED is book 3 in the "Night Moves" series and can absolutely be read and enjoyed as a stand-alone.

A quick read that brings a lot to the table. The characters are uncomplicated and we have a good idea what their agenda is right from the beginning. There is humor (the explanation between "erotic dancer" and "stripper" had me chuckling) and awwww moments too. I like that this book is written with ZERO judgement and without the typical stereotypes that surround the industry.

There is a new character introduced that I want to know more about and I hope he gets his story told next. This is one of those series that could go on for a while because we are always "meeting" new friends and there is some building of their story as we go along. It is also fun to visit the characters we were introduced to in previous books.

This was an easy one-sitting read that I recommend.

Tapped is the third book in The Night Moves Series by Tarrah Anders. It is a very sexy, sweet, fun, and fairly light-hearted second chance at love story- that had me hooked right from the beginning.
Janae gets a shock when her one time boyfriend turns up at her workplace, as a fellow employee. Kai has come back home and certainly never expected to lay eye’s on the one woman who broke his heart.
Will the sparks between these two ignite the love they once shared? What happens when secrets are revealed?
This was such a quick, easy and enjoyable read. Janae and Kai’s chemistry was quite HOT, and sizzled off the pages. I loved the funny banter and quips, it made for some funny reading. There were also details that made me ‘feel’ for Janae- things I won’t get into here, because I don’t want to spoil it for you. I loved catching up with the characters from the previous books- they are all such wonderful individuals- a real stellar cast!
I always enjoy Ms. Anders stories and this book is no exception. This is definitely one of my favourite reads of hers and was a great addition to the series! Another great read from this superb author. I can’t wait to see what she does next.

Thank you, Ms. Anders!

Tapped is Book 3 in its series by Tarrah Anders. I am quickly becoming a huge fan! I unknowingly read a book previously, and am working my way backwards now. This story is placed in Las Vegas. Jenae tends bar at The Essentials and Kai is a Male Dancer hired on at The Essentials. Janae and Kai dated 10 years prior. They met seetheir Junior year in school and dated for 2 years. She broke up with him because he knew exactly what he wanted in life, and it was scary because she wasn't sure what she wanted, except that it was different than what he wanted. His first night at the Essentials is their first time seeing each other since their breakup. Very soon after they start working together they pick up where they left off. Kai is the only boy/man Janae has ever loved and Vice Versa. This story is without a doubt for mature audiences. I loved almost everything about this book. Melissa, Janae's sister lives in New Orleans with her mom. Right off the hop she is my Favorite Character. She's funny and Chipper and I wish there was more of her in this book!That is literally my only complaint! 5 out of 5 stars!

Tapped is the 3rd book in The Night Moves series and had me captivated for the entire performance. Kai and Janae’s story is one of second chances, rectifying the past and realizing that some things were meant to be. Their book is hot, steamy and will have your heart pounding to the beat. As your pulse races from the sexiness their story creates and from the angsty moments that their pasts cause, Tapped will have you on the edge of your seat. A second chance romance that will wraps itself around your heart, make you laugh and have you crossing your fingers that these two will make it to the final call.

A Blast From the Past, Janae and Kai are high school lovers who disconnect for 10 years and get back together. Janae and kai show us that sometimes a second chance is worth taking. I seriously love the couple. They are everything most people wish they had. Reading tapped will keep you engrossed this book is definitely a page turner and will keep you wanting more. I thought The ending of this book was the perfect way to end this book Although I would love to learn more about Slater :).This was my first book I have read by Tarrah Anders and I plan on reading more books by this Author.

I was given an advanced readers copy of this book and have decided to leave. Damn Tarrah you killed it with this one. I loved it from start to finish. And the little surpises you added in were so not expected but damn good and entertaining. I freaken loved kai and Janae. It's amazing to see a second chance happen. Life doesn't always give them to you. But when they do you take advantage of it.

This is the first book I have read from this author and wow I was blown away. I love a good second chance but this talented author exceeded all my expectations. This is the third book in The Night Moves series. You can read this book as a stand-alone but there are previous characters in this story as well. I read this book as a stand alone and now I want to start from the beginning. The storyline hooked me right from the start. It only took me a few hours to devour this incredible book.

Janae absolutely loves her life. She has a great job and her bosses are like family. Janae is a bar manager at one of the hottest bars in Los Vegas. She doesn’t have time to date and she hasn’t been in a relationship since him. Janae was heartbroken when she had to say goodbye to her high school boyfriend but it had to be done. She is in complete shock when he comes into her bar. Janae is told that Kia is going to be one of the dancers at night. She still has feelings for him but does he feel the same way? After getting to know eachother again they decide to give their relationship another shot. Will Janae and Kia move on from the past or is their past going to try to break them again?

I absolutely loved this book. The storyline has it all romance, humor, and forgiveness. You will fall in love with these characters right from the beginning. Janae is a firecracker. She says what is on her mind and she doesn’t care what you think of her. Kia is a handsome man with a heart of gold. He loves what he does and he is not ashamed. The way he treats Janae will make your heart melt. These characters have some steamy scenes that will make your temperature rise. This talented author will have you at the edge of your seat until the end. The ending was perfect and it made me have all of the feels. I can’t wait to read this series from the beginning to get to know the other characters.

Janae and Kai gave us a little of everything: a second chance at first (and only) love, humor, definite heat, chemistry, and a glimpse at how young love can mature into something much more intense and real if the people involved are open to trying again. Kai was definitely not your standard Magic Mike kinda guy, which I absolutely loved. He was smart, mature, and went after the woman he loved and wanted back without any hesitation. Janae was a little harder to love, but that’s mainly because I felt so bad for her self-imposed misery, thanks mainly to her upbringing and fears of being left behind or, even worse, of tethering someone to her who truly wanted to be free. Once that was understood, I felt for Janae so much and was so glad to see her willing to go all-in with Kai in a truly adult relationship. I only regret the situation with Slater. It was written very well and I felt that the emotions of all three were genuinely captured, but I wish he’d been honest from the get-go about his mission. I did, however, like how it was all resolved: no muss, no fuss, no real drama. And that epilogue? GOLD. I adored the family that this club was and loved how everyone was in on the plan to give Janae and Kai their HEA.

Tarrah Anders is one of those authors that I can totally connect with. I love her style of writing, her characters, and the way she puts her heart and soul into creating a captivating read that will blow you away every single time.

There is no denying the chemistry between Janae and Kai and I couldn't read the pages fast enough as I got deeper and deeper into their relationship. When you know two characters deserve to be together, you just hope that the spark is still there. Kai is such a dream, and what an amazing career he's had! Janae, on the other hand, has that shell that needs to be cracked, the wall that she's put up around her. I can't blame her, but if there's anyone who can get through to her, it's certainly Kai.

Anders put the magic on the pages and made the words shine. Tapped was everything I hoped it would be, plus more. Seriously, you can't go wrong with this story. Add in that Vegas, the setting for the story, is one of my favorite places to visit, made it even more of a delight because some of the places the author mentioned I'd actually been there before. There were lots of heartfelt moments and oh the steam! Let's not forget that part.

Great read from an author that has become one of my favorites!

For the record I have no interest to go to a real life male strip show, but will I keep reading this series by Tarrah Anders based on male performers dancing exotically? Heck yea! All day long! I truly love the standalone connectivity of the series because you can pick them up separately but you’ll want to read them all once you start.

Tapped is no different. Janae and Kai, once a thing way back in the day have a chance to try again to figure out if they are meant to be. The chemistry is palpable and the read is sexy as heck. I loved the familiarity that lended to their connection and the teasing nature because of their history. Tapped is a great escape type read, a way to lose yourself for a few hours in the company of these characters.

OMG! I loved this one!! Kai is sexy, smart, passionate, and solid. Janae is strong, independent, sassy, and a bit skittish but not a wishy-washy petty person. It's a second chance romance, a bit kinky, and all against the backdrop of glittering Las Vegas. I admit I have a weakness for stories set here. I loved Jacks' & Mal's stories, and they of course make appearances along with their loves. Humor, passion, tenderness. Two characters secure in themselves. I ADORED this!! I received a review copy. I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

Swoon-worthy second chance romance!!

Absolutely loved the story of Kai and Janae! Loved her badass attitude wrapped around her warm center and Kai - what can you say about a romantic guy that can dance!?!!? The fact that they got their second chance after a high school romance and seemingly picked up right where they left off - but with much more heat!! Another great story by Tarrah!

I love how the author writes with creativeness and has the ability to make me feel as if I am part of the book. This is a story of second chances and starting over. Janae and Kai had a relationship when they were younger and now fate may give them a second chance. But when secrets are revealed will it hurt their relationship and turn them against each other? These two are well developed and strong. Will hearts mend or will they break all over again? I highly recommend this book.

Loved this story. Kai was passionate and sexy with Janae being confident and a spitfire. These characters and story were great. They had me laughing, swooning and wishing u could be part of their circle. It was a hot combo of Magic Mike and the Thunder from Down Under. Definitely recommended if you want a story with hot men and women and a well deserved HEA.

This story was amazing. I wasn't sure what to expect when you have a stripper, er, exotic dancer and a bartender. This story is beautifully written. The imagery was so vivid. I could just picture all of the story. They both never stopped loving each other all these years. YEAH for second chances.
Definitely grab this book. There is grey sweatpants, half dressed men and very hot dancing. It should keep you warm on a cold night.

Janae and Kai’s story is a beautiful second chance romance. Ten years ago Janae broke Kai’s heart when she broke up with him without warning. He goes on to travel and follow a career that he loves while Janae makes her place in Vegas. When fate brings them back together Kai is determined to have his second chance and while Janae is afraid she’s willing to take the risk for Kai. This is a true love / fate knocking them on their butt story and I thought it was wonderful!

Highly recommended!

I really love this novella. We are back to Club Essentials, also the setting for Stripped and The Night Manager, that being said, Tapped can be read as a stand alone. Kai is our H and Janae is our h. This is a second chance romance in the sense that they dated 10 years before and now their paths cross again. This is steamy and sexy and Kai is amazing and swoony putting Janae first, always.

This was a fun and fast second chance romance with a bar, which I love! Our H and h were obviously meant to be and I feel like their time apart allowed them to grow enough to be together. This also has some super hot scenes that were fun to read! All in all a great fun read!

Tapped (The Night Moves Book 3)
By: Tarrah Anders
5 out of 5 stars

The story Tapped (The Night Moves Book 3) by Tarrah Anders is a contemporary romance book. It is a story that I loved reading. One of the main reasons are the characters of Janae and Kai. These two have a past which left Kai with a broken heart. Now they find themselves back together at the same place of employment. They both still have feelings for each other. There is still an attraction and chemistry between them. Some might call it fate. These two have a second chance at romance. Motives are unclear when a very good friend of Kai’s comes to visit. Why is he there and what will the effects of his visit be? Will they be split apart, or will they find their HEA? Read this book to find out. I loved reading about the interactions/dialogue between Janae, Kai, and the other additional characters in the story. Janae and Kai work at an establishment where there they are made to feel like family. You can feel the protective nature and the comradery. This story does include steamy scenes that make the temperature in the room rise. I grew to care about Janae and Kai with each chapter that I read, and I wanted them to find happiness. This is a romance book that will pull you in from the very start and I didn’t want to put it down until I had finished the final chapter. A story you don’t want to miss out on reading.

Tapped is the 3rd book in the Night Moves series by Tarrah Anders. It follows on from ‘Stripped’ and ‘The Night Manager’. I had previously read, and enjoyed, The Night Manager without realising that it was part of a series. So now that I’ve read, and enjoyed, Tapped, I’ve now bought the first book Stripped. Each book is a full complete story and can be read as a stand-alone, however characters from the previous books return and you get an update on them. Having read, and loved, 2 of the book in this series, I’d definitely recommend it to others.
In Tapped we have the story of Janae and Kai who were high school sweethearts, only for Janae to end their relationship out of the blue. 10 years on and Janae is the bar manager at The Essentials club. Janae has not moved on and no guy can live up to Kai, so imagine her shock when Kai turns up as the new erotic dancer at the club. It just so happens that Kai has never got over Janae and no woman has ever lived up to her.
This is a sweet heart-warming second chance love story. I totally loved both characters. This book has so much to offer the reader. It has angst, humour, and Kai has some seriously sexy moves (both as a dancer at the club and in the bedroom). Boy does he give a damn good lap dance!! Be prepared to have your heart racing at several points in this book.

First, I should preface this review with my confession that I may be a bit biased with Tarrah Anders. She just happens to be one of my top five fave contemporary romance authors. So it is automatic for me to one-click anything that she puts out, quite often before I even know what the book is going to be about. I don’t care, I know whatever adventure awaits within those pages will be a great one. Tapped is nothing short of great either.

Book three, and the conclusion, of The Night Moves series this still can be read as a complete standalone novel. You will want to go back and catch the rest of the gang’s stories though as they are equally fantastic! We get the story of Janae and Kai. Theirs is one full of second chances and new beginnings. Nothing really ever comes easy and that is what makes the novels glorious to get lost in. I especially enjoy how I felt as if I was vacationing in Las Vegas the entire time I was reading Tapped. All the lights, glitz and glam, and the sultry steam that goes with it was excluded in the writing so well. My only complaint with this was that it ended! I can’t wait to see what will come next from Tarrah Anders! Thanks so much for this amazing read!

Tapped by Tarrah Anders is definitely a 5 star read for me. I have read a few books by this author and have loved all of them.

Janae is about to get the shock of her life one night while she is working. Kai....her Kai from
10 years ago is standing in front of her. As soon as they see each other, the feelings are brought back.

Lao has never forgotten Janae. He has always measured people up to her and no one ever came
close. He was traveling on tour as a back up dancer but now he wants to find a place to stay in. He’s tired of different hotel rooms and sleeping on tour busses. He never thought when he applied for this job, he was going to find the one woman who owned his heart.

Kai and Janae start off as friends again but, Kai knew from the beginning, he wanted more. It took a lot of convincing but, Janae finally gave him a shot. Kai started as a rookie but quickly turned into one of the best erotic dancers at the club. Janae never watches the shows but now she finds herself watching him every time he comes out.

When one is Kai’s best friends come to visit, Janae finds herself in a crazy situation.

This was a great book and had lots of heat. I loved how Kai and Janae were able to have a second chance in life. I also loved the ending. AMAZING!!!

Tapped by Tarrah Anders
5 out of 5 stars
Wow this is my first read by Ms. Anders and I could not put it down it was hot hot hot… Tapped is written by Ms. Anders so I guess this is the third in this series so now I have to go back and read them. The characters are well written and get along so well with their different personalities and quirks.
Do you believe in second chances? How about new beginnings and commitment?

Janae and Kai where high school sweet-hearts and hasn’t seen him in over ten years. She hasn’t dated anyone since Kai and hasn’t had any desire to either. She manages the bar at the hottest co-ed revue in Las Vegas and the last person she expects to walk in, is now standing at her bar with her boss.
Kai leaves his life on the road to settle back home. He doesn’t expect to see his ex-girlfriend, the one woman that no one can compare to in his new place of employment. The one woman who left him without a real explanation, who broke his heart.
Kai and Janae give their romance a second chance, but Kai’s best friend from his road life comes to visit and it’s unclear if he has ulterior motives. Will Kai’s friend tear them apart or is their love solid?

Tapped (The Night Moves #3)
By Tarrah Anders
Rated 5 stars

I was very excited to read this book. I loved the first two and this one is no exception. It was enjoyable getting to meet Kai and how he reacted to seeing Janae for the first time. Janae tried to stay strong about her no relationship rule, but Kai was able to melt her defenses. I won’t say how he did it. But DANG! I loved it! So creative!

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Jacks/Cam and Mal/Beck again. They truly have amazing relationships and I love seeing what they are all up to. Plus their bantering is so cute!

This story flowed so nicely. The characters are interesting and full of life. I love reading this authors books. She has a way with her stories that draw me in and make me care about the characters. This can be read as a stand alone (why would you?) but if you want the “full-package” you need to read the first two In the series. They are just as good. I promise! This epilogue! OMG! So perfect! It gave me chills!!
I loved it!

5 Stars

I've lost track of how many of this authors books I have read, I absolutely love all that she writes and will continue reading everything she comes out with.

I loved this story, second chances are always a winner for me and I loved the little bit of drama that went with it..The ending was my favorite of all of her endings and I could close my eyes and actually feel like I was right there watching it all happen. I think I could have actually done without the character of Slater in this story, or most of his part anyway and it actually scared me a bit that this story was going to end a totally different way and I'm so thankful it did not.

Even though this story is #3 in the Night Moves Series it can absolutely be read as a stand alone but the other two were completely amazing so pick them up as well, you won't be sorry.

Can't wait to see what this author comes up with next, but rest assured I'll be one of the first in line for whatever that might be.

Loved It!!
