At sixteen, Hunter Nolan became my foster brother.
At twenty-three, he’s the only one I call family.
He’s been my protector since we aged out of the system, getting me jobs, convincing me to apply for school, covering my half of the rent when money falls through. He even plays impromptu bodyguard when staff is short at the club where I dance. But he’d never ask me to quit. Hunter has his own sinful job, after all.
The Eros app has taken the adult industry by storm, and Hunter is one of Eros’s top erotic models. Sex is a part of both our careers. It doesn’t become weird until Hunter’s boss, the ambitious and entrepreneurial Britain McCulley, sees me dancing and wants to hire me.
The money is too good to turn down, even if it means pairing with Hunter for the sexiest shoots Eros has ever produced.
Even if it means falling for the one guy completely off limits.
Iris Blaire is a firm believer in escapism and good coffee. She has lived in various cities along the west coast (best coast!) for almost all her life, and is currently situated in Portland. As a writer of many things, she returns to the universe of East Park when she feels like the world needs more inappropriate jokes, sweet love interests, and steamy scenes.
This is a sweet romantic comedy with strong characters and an entertaining story line. Tess and Hunter have a strong connection but it takes a bit of time for them to realize their true feelings for each other. Their chemistry is steamy and I enjoyed reading their story. It's well written and moves fluidly. I would recommend reading.

Shiver is the fourth book in the East Park series and focuses on two new characters, Hunter and Tess. The book is a friends to lovers, is it or is it not taboo, story of two foster siblings who are best friends and are tossed together to model at Eros. Aside from these two new characters, there are plenty of cameos from characters that you have come to love, including a gratuitous visit from Evan and Dallas. This fourth installment is heavier on story line and shorter on intense sex scenes, to be expected I suppose as you can't keep writing the same thing over and over. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with that as the story between the two main characters is well told.
My only question is: since the author has one a good job of interspersing the characters stories into each new book, why don't we see anything with Britain and her family. If you didn't read the previous book, you would have no clue from this one that she had a story of her own. It's odd since the first three books had an underlying tension regarding Britain and her family. To not mention them at all considering previous events seems odd. I certainly came into this one expecting to find out what happened, but there isn't even a paragraph dedicated to that.

Hunter and Ella have lived together best friends platonically for years, since leaving the same foster home where Hunter saved her from abuse at the hand of another foster sibling..Both are models for Eros, an online app which shoots Erotica. While they agree on strictly being platonic they obviously have deep love feelings for each other but each is afraid of losing that deep closeness if they cross the line. This book is FULL of angst and close calls which had me constantly screaming at my kindle!! It's well written and extremely entertaining, and yes very hot at times! HEA and opening for other romances and connections in this book, I can tell this is not the only romance happening behind the lens at Eros App. Seeing these too go from a platonic to honest feelings was a great adventure and I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did!

This story was awesome! The fourth book in the series focuses on Hunter, a hot model and Tess' best friend since they were in foster care at age 16. Hunter has always looked out for and defended Tess, but when her college grant is denied, Hunter suggests that Tess should model where he works. Big mistake! Seeing each other model naked with others starts out just plain awkward, but eventually they both have to come to grips with the feelings they have always had but held back for fear of losing each other. The build up and sexual tension between these two is intense and only gets hotter as the story continues! This whole series has been fantastic and I highly recommend every book!

Loved the book it was great, the story was well written and the characters were intriguing. Tess and Hunter they both were in the foster system together, they moved in together both go to school and Hunter is a model for Eros and Tessa is a go-go dancer while going to school. When Tessa works Hunter works behind the bar and when needed, he also believes that he needs to protect Tessa. Their chemistry is hot but they have not touched each other they believe their siblings, he looks after her when she has nightmares he holds her until she feels better and helps out when she does not have money to pay bills or school.

Iris Blaire is one of my new favourite authors! Shiver is the fourth East Park series I’ve read (over 2 days) and I can’t get enough of Britain and the gang. All the books I’ve read have been well rounded with very likable characters, and the story-lines always make sense and give just enough information without it dragging. Shiver has Hunter and Tess whose chemistry is off the charts and smoking hot enough to to tantalize and their steamy scenes are enough to get you wet! This series is definitely one of my faves and will be re-read over and over!

This is one Hot series with great emotional growth and love. Standalone with no Cliffhangers. Tess and Hunter have been family for 7 years now, foster siblings. Tess has trouble connecting with men when it comes to more than just sex. Hunter is always there to catch her when she falls. Hunter can't imagine his life without her but he has the opportunity to get a paid internship in another state. Will they finally confess their love before he leaves? Working together it the club and Eros makes the attraction come on stronger. Loved it. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
My first trip to EAST PARK and I'm hooked. Hunter and the entire crew are a force. I could smell the simmering pot of two people who shouldn't cross the line but it seems that all forces want them together.
I was in sensory overload. It's hot, sweet and did I mention hot within these pages. Each character add their charms to make an impressive story. I will go back and visit EAST PARK because I want to know each of their stories. I received an ARC for an honest and voluntarily review.
Shiver was my first read by Iris Blaire and it blew my mind. It grabbed me at page one and would not let go. Hunter and Tess are roommates that share a bond that goes beyond friendship. But they have never crossed that line. They met in foster care when Tess was sixteen and their bond was cemented. Hunter has always protected Tess and he always will. But feelings become intense and complicated when she begins working with Hunter at Eros. I will definitely be reading the previous books in the East Park series!
This is Book 4 in the East Park Series by this author. It is an off limits romance between Tess and her foster brother, Hunter. These two likeable souls and the unique plot make for an enjoyable read. It is a romantic ride with a good dose of drama, steam, engaging secondary characters, and a happy ending. It is a great addition to the series. It can be read as a standalone but you enhance your reading pleasure if you read the other books in the series.

This is the story of and Hunter. He was her foster brother when she was sixteen and he’s been watching out for her ever since. When Britain sees Tess dancing at the club, Britain offers her a job with Eros. Tess will be paired with Hunter for some sexy photo shoots for the app. Will this be weird or will they go to the next level? I enjoyed this romance.

'Shiver' is the 4th book in the East Park series. This book follows two new characters Hunter and Ella The chemistry between the two are off the charts. It's a wonderful read of a young woman and man who've fallen love since childhood, but didn't want to cross the line of true friendship. Modeling together for Eros makes them reevaluate their relationship. Good addition to the series

Loved Hunter and Tess!! You could sense their bond and loyalty from the get go! They trusted each other, even if there were plenty bumps along the way, if you don't like plenty of sexy scenes then this perhaps might not be your book otherwise i definitely recommend reading. Can't wait to go in and read more from Iris

Tess and Hunter are in love with each other but are totally clueless about the way they feel for each other. Until they begin to model together and now there is no way they can deny their feelings. The chemistry between these two is sizzling hot. I look forward to reading more books by this author.

Part of a unique series that has two lost souls in need of one another in a world that could ruin others. A sexy yet soulful dive into their relationship that shows how one thing or person can make all the difference. Hooked on this group and am kind of excited that I missed out on the first two.

This the forth book in the series and just as good as the previous ones. Hunter and Ella have known each from back to the foster care days and been best friends. I had fun with this couples relationship going from platonic to one of love.

This is the second book I’ve read by this author. I enjoyed this book just as much as the last one. I liked the plot which was interesting. I loved the characters and their interactions which were steamy. I enjoyed reading this book.
I liked this. It has a different feel in some ways than the other novels. Perhaps less melodrama and more character focus. There are a few other characters id like to see get stories in the future though.
I love this series.I love the chemistry between the characters and the storyline. The book is well written and easy to read. I can wait for the rest of the series.
It you've read the other books in the series this follows Britain as she still is photographing models for the storybook format. There is a cameo with Evan and Dallas but the book focuses on two new characters. No spoilers but I feel head over heels for them. A just read if you're a fan of the other books. I was so excited to see this book that I devoured it in one sitting. Now to go back and book mark some of my favorite scenes.
