One Night #1
Games We Play
Jack is a faceless gamer known as The Joker. He makes a living playing video games and using his gravelly voice to bring people’s sexual fantasies to life.
When the top gaming site on the West Coast sends someone out to interview him, Quinlan walks into his apartment with her auburn curls and thick curves, and they’re instantly drawn to each other.
Quinlan has no idea of the monster that lurks beneath the surface of his calm demeanor.
Jack is quicksand, pulling her down into the dark underbelly of his desires.
To get out unscathed, she’ll need to give into the hunger she has always tried to deny.

It takes special talent to make a novella with a pet/dog kink so damn boring.

So more information has come out regarding this author and yeah. No. I don’t think I’ll be reading anything else by Dana Isaly. But if you want to, go ahead. But be aware that what you’re reading may have original source material elsewhere, even if it’s not in written form.
And some people who have sided with DI are saying that Eros’ trauma isn’t valid - fuck those people. If your goal was to alienate friends and readers, 👏🏻 hats off to you. It worked.
Jaclyn and E are the real victims here and morally and ethically what has been done is wrong. It may or may not hold up in a court but this author won’t be getting any more of my money. I’m sad I can’t get it back already.

i have recently found out that this author has plagiarised the works and ideas of voEROS (on tiktok) and other women in his community, and also used his childhood trauma in her book. therefore, i will not be reading and supporting any of her works anymore and i’ll be taking back my ratings for this book.
If you need proof, you can always look it up on his tiktok account or on patreon.

Games We Play was smoking hot and impressively kinky. A one-night stand between a gamer and a journalist conducting an interview; these two were deviantly perfect together…
How far is she going to let me take this?
Hidden behind his mask while he entices his fan base, Jack better known as the Joker is an enigma. On meeting his interviewer, he is blown away at how easily Quinlan can be led astray. The chemistry is instant, and their desires aligned. Neither will be parting ways anytime soon.
“I should be thanking you for the compliment. There’s nothing hotter than knowing I made you so satisfied you left a puddle on my sheets.”
My second read by this author and yet again she has blown my mind. Refreshingly edgy writing, morally questionable characters and creative sexy times that made me blush. Dana Isaly is the real deal when it comes to erotic romances and worth having on your radar. 🖤

I’m sick to my stomach knowing what I know now. This book makes me feel icky now, sexualizing others without their consent is disgusting. Profiting off it? Doing it for your own pleasure/gain? Horrific. Once again, I no longer support this author.
Do you own research but vo.EROS on instagram/tiktok has shared his story. My heart goes out to all those effected by this authors actions.

This was so much fun! I loved how he was a gamer and she was a reporter coming to do a story on him. Things get heated and they end up spending all night together. Their conversations were great (there was actually some depth to their conversations in such a short amount of pages) and I loved their chemistry! I do think it was weird that we got one random chapter from someone else's POV while they were at the club, and the ending seemed really rushed, but overall this was a really fun novella!

Now I like a good erotica story every now and then, but this one just didn't hit the spot like I had hoped. To be perfectly honest, it read like the script of a porn movie...but not a good one. The premise sounded so good and the cover was alluring, so of course I had to try it. Sadly it just didn't work for me.
Now I love BDSM and have read my fair share of it. But this one...was not it for me. The kink was all over the place. There's degradation kink, which has to be written really well for me to enjoy it, and it really wasn't pulled off well in this one for me. Jack kept referring to Quinlan as "dog" and well...yeah...no. There's spanking, some sirs and safe words thrown in, and a completely out of the place "daddy" that pops up once and that's it. Really, it kind of read all over the place. I don't expect a lot of plot in erotica, so that certainly didn't surprise me here. You get enough plot to set up the sex, which is fine by me. But the erotica just didn't click for me. There was some story that tried to be interwoven into it, but it didn't really fit. It should have been a longer novella for that. As it was, it just felt slapped in. The epilogue was just...strange. They literally go from o to 60 in less than 90 pages. I'm all for erotica and a HFN, so the epilogue just added a bit of cheese for me.
All in all, it was ok but certainly nothing I'd come back to or remember.

There have been evidence of this author plagiarizing the content from the original owner and as such I wouldn't be reading any books from her again (not that I planned on it since this book was fucking shit). Please put this author and her work in the nearest trashcan you can find.

Nah I'm not gonna waste my time with this book.
I am okay with the degradation kink but usage of the word dog? Dogs are such good creatures and I don't think it should be brought into your stupid kink, Joker.
Also, what is with the change in attitude? I can't stand the indecisiveness, do you like her or do you want to fuck her? I thought this was a book that focused on either one.
I wanted a light-hearted and quick smut read but this is just boring and a lot of eyerolls.

This is either going to really work for you, or really… not work for you. I’m definitely on the ‘not’ side. This book has been so hyped lately so when I saw it was available on audio I was here for it. Unfortunately, the whole story was just not my kind of read. I was expecting like, a darker Jessa Kane type of book, but it wasn’t that. I’m honestly not sure what this was. If it worked for you that’s awesome and I’m not here to tell anyone not to read it, but yeah… no. Not for me.
Side note about the audio: The narrator was fantastic but the actual quality of the audiobook wasn’t great, especially at the beginning.

"Now fucking crawl to me like the dog you are."
I think it's a pet k!nk or smth (so no k!nk shaming) but that's what happens when you play games instead of doing homework bro doesn't even know the basic masculine/feminine.. she has to act like a btch and he a dog 🥱🫴 (1 star deducted)
The reviews were like it's so damn good "spicy".. As a desi sorry to say but it was fine nothing special 🙄🤌
Also not the flashing 🤚 (1 star deducted for that scenario cuz why'd you make her go like that outside 😑)
But atleast the end was good 📉📈
Idk why I'm giving it 3 stars but it's ok I'm feeling generous today

Consider the curious cat dead.
Do you know what? I'm upping the rating coz I actually liked the writing somehow but the pet/degradation kink? I mean, it literally says in my bio that it's not my favourite.

Told mostly in single POV, 1st person, it’s the first installment in the "One Night" series and can be read as a standalone. This was my first read by this author and unfortunately, it didn’t work out for me. This is no character development and a good storyline. It couldn’t even entertain me. All in all, it was a disappointment, but I hope you enjoy it more than me!

Update: This author stole the narrator’s experience as a victim of SA and used it as a plot for her book.I’m disgusted.
MENTION OF SUICIDE ATTEMPT WITH BASICALLY NO CONTENT!
Other than that this was just smut with a bunch of role play and bdsm elements for sock factor and some unnecessary drama.
However the guy who narrated the audiobook has one of the hottest voices I’ve ever heard and he’s obviously really talented.You’re the real star of the show baby.

September 5, 2021So... I'm not a fan of this kink but I must admit the writing style sucked me in and I couldn't put it down! The writer mixed the sex scenes and didn't make it all about pet/master... But even with that, I imagined being her and going in a house to find that... picture me freaking out a little bit.
Now I can't wait to read Wes story and I might have fell in love with their little group.
