Nyotaimori is the ancient Japanese tradition of eating sushi off a naked woman’s body.
REO In New York on a deadly mission, Reo works for the most dangerous gangster in Japan—the Dragon. Many call Reo, The Dragon’s Roar. The Executioner. The One-That-Buries-The-Bodies.
Usually Reo is all business. Nothing could ever distract him. Until he catches sight of an enchanting dancer. Now, he can’t get her off his mind.
LAYLA Layla’s focused on getting enough money to save her younger sister. Then, a handsome stranger named Reo rescues her from a situation at work. Although coming off as a perfect gentlemen, he radiates wicked heat and menace. And he has an interesting way for her to make a lot of money—let him eat sushi off her naked body.
It’s an intriguing and tempting proposition, but one Layla isn’t sure about. How naked would she really be? Would each bite expose more of herself to him? And would he have his chopsticks under control?
Kenya Wright wrote her first novel during her third year at UM Law school. She dropped out a month after the release and never looked back.
Words are power, and Kenya wants to be the greatest wizard that ever lived.
It's an audacity to inspire and teach the healing of love through arousal.
It's this crazy idea that love can not only help a reader escape, but the story can also teach the person about being human, while making them laugh, cry, and hot for more sex.
Reading this book was like watching a movie! Action, asuspense, and romantic! I enjoyed the characters and the sex was lit, steamy, and romantic. I would definitely let my man eat sushi off me!
Kenya Wright is on my very short 1-click list. She can write no wrong. :) I hope we get more of Reo and Layla. I especially need to know more about the Dragon.
I adore Ms. Wright's books and I am A HUGE FAN of her Lion and the Mouse series. I cannot get enough of it and this book has some ties to that series as well. Reo and Layla were perfect for each other. I loved every single word written! Bravo on another job well done Ms. Wright!!! 5 STUPENDOUS, AWESOME, TERRIFIC, AMAZING, and WONDERFUL Stars!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Every time I read a book by Kenya Wright I find myself on a journey thats full of drama, danger , lust, passion, torture and the beat dang sex ever! And Naked Sushi had all of it! Enter Reo, the Dragon's Roar, sent to do a job where not only did find his prey but he found his other half Layla. I loved how Ms. Wright seemed to be telling two stories at the same time. There's Reo & Layla and the development of trust, passion, desire, love, protection and dealing with personal sorrows. And then there's Reo, the Dragon's Roar, contuing his mission for the Dragon that combined both stories from the onset. This book was amazing from start to finish. I could not put it down. And what an ending! This book was all that and more! I'm not going to spoil it by giving details. But I will say this. If you haven't read this book, then you must add it to the top of your reading list. It's definitely worth reading!
You will fall absolutely in love with Reo and Layla. The moment they meet its apparent they are kindred spirits and this meeting was fate. Reo is currently on an assignment from his boss the Dragon. Know as the Dragons Roar he is who arrives when your fate is death. Very dedicated as well as exceptional at his job he has no time for women or relationships. Its all been a brief dalliance here and there until het meets Layla. Layla ensnared him at first glance. Layla dances in high roller rooms for exclusive adult parties when she meets Reo. Instant chemistry upon eye contact, and then to amp it up he saves her from a perverse murderer with a foot fetish. The moment they physically meet he asks her on a date, but also to eat sushi off her body. Taken aback whilst completely turned on as well she declines his offer. Reo being the man he is does not give up. As the story proceeds Reo and Layla find they have quite a bit in common, and that the attraction they have is also meant for more than just one night. The story of Reo, Layla, and of course sushi is steamy, dramatic, and everything else you could desire in a Lunchtime Chronicle!
I ate up every last bit of this story!! Kenya has a way of pulling you right into the story's setting and always has amazing characters. As soon as Reo is described walking into a room looking for his target I knew I'd need more Reo in my life!! Reo finds his target but also sets eyes on the beautiful, elegant Layla. Their instant connection made for a very spicy first encounter.
Reo handles his mission for the Yakuza yet makes time to get to know Layla. I love Layla is initially cautious, not giving in to Reo immediately. She allows Reo to romance her and introduce her to Nyotaimori. Reo can't resist his hunger for Layla when they finally have a moment alone and yessssss it was all worth the wait. Great, fun read but I wish I could have more of Reo and Layla's story.
OMG!!!! Kenya Wright did the damn thang! Reo and Layla are FIRE!!! This was a great read and Kenya only whetted my appetite for more. Reo is a man who knows what he wants and knows he's gonna get it. Even with all his bada$$ness, he sees that Layla needs someone to love and cherish her for once. She's always taking care of her family, but Reo sees (and absolutely NEEDS) that he should be taking care of her. Loving her. I really want more. I want to see how he balances his "career" with his Layla. LOVE THIS!!!!!
Damn, Damn, Damn, Damn.....in my Outkast voice!!! Ms. Kenya came correct with this latest edition of Lunchtime Chronicles. Season 4 has been lackluster until Posey Parks and now Kenya Wright. Layla and Reo story was on point, the sexual tension between the 2 and their interactions with one another. I loved their lunch scene and as always the element of the mafia/yakuza. I'm ready for some more from these two. An amazing book and you will not regret reading this book. Excellent job Kenya Wright.
I just feel all mushy inside. I love Reo and Layla's story. It was like love at first sight. Reo came to New York on a mission but once he layed eyes on Layla it was like he had a brain fart for a minute. He knew he had to handle Footman but he would stop at nothing to have Layla. Reo is a beast but he's a real sweetheart when it comes to Layla. All he wants is to love and protect her. I hope this isn't the last of these two but with him being the Dragon's Roar I doubt it.💛💛
Layla and Reo. I honestly don’t have words for how good this is for how brief this is. This much steam in so short a time has my head spinning. These two are so hot together!!! I needed this to be longer! The closer I got to the end the more desperate I became. Wow, the care that Reo takes with Layla is everything I love about Kenya’s writing! That instant chemistry between these characters puts this story at the top of the Lunchtime Chronicles for me, so far. Buy it and read it!
Reo knew that Layla was his soulmate when he first laid eyes on her. It was the first time he ever had a reaction to a woman as strong as he did with Layla. But there was someone that had an eye on her too. Someone who was thoroughly evil and Reo was not having it. Kayla was completely creeped out by the creepy man. Her reaction to how Reo took care of Mr. Creepy gave him the excuse that he needed to get Kayla right where he wanted her, with him
I enjoyed reading this short story. There was intrigue with the Nayotaimori tradition. Even the story behind how Mr. Footman became Mr. Creepy. I also enjoyed the history behind the Tale of the Red String as well. Reo's red string connected straight to Layla's heart.
Whew! I love Lunchtime Chronicles as they are fast, flirty, fun reads that are FIRE! And this book did not disappoint!!! Reo meets Layla and of course has to have her and whew that insistent Alpha had all the moves!! Great read and can’t wait for the next in the series!!!
I love how this connected to previous books. It's always nice to hear from old friends.
Naked sushi was hot af. But also it's was dark and gritty and I ate it all the way up. Reo and Layla had that instant connection I've been living for these days.
This was a fantastic read... different type of storyline..great characters... fetishes....I was floored that dude enjoyed feet...his escape had me ...that red string though...
Naked Sushi who knew it would be deliciously sexy? Throw in some family addiction and a dangerous man with an extreme foot fetish (he collects feet), some Japanese folklore and here we are satisfied and sated. Great short story, I so enjoyed it
I loved loved loved Reo and Layla story. It was love at first sight and who knew it would be erotic having sushi eaten off your body. Kenya did the darn thing with this one. Now let me see if I can find me a Reo.
It seems to be the theme for this installment in this series to make the most unlike situations into Instalove. It never really works for me until the end. This one was no different. Highly improbable but really entertaining.
Love Naked Sushi the footman is crazy and Reo saved Layla from him I love how Reo was treating Layla helped her with her sister and romanced her. The book is 5 Stars
Kenya, this book was fye fye! I loved Layla and Reo. As always very well written with a great storyline. Can’t wait to see these two more in the future.
Must read! ASAP. Definitely worth the wait! There's so much I loved about this short story! 1. It packed a ton of information. Kenya's an amazing storyteller! 2. It was extremely sexy. 3. I fell in love with Reo! Nothing like a man that knows what he wants. 4. Everyone needs a sidekick like Ali. 5. Even though it was quick read, I could completely understand how Layla fell for Reo. He didn't give us a Choice!
This was a quick short exciting read, I liked the characters Reo,Layla,and Ali The story line was very good and education, I liked the way this story tried into the other book characters.... 🙂 Nice
This is the best of the series so far in my opinion! All have been enjoyable, but this one is the best one yet!!!! I can’t wait for the next one ! Two thumbs up!!!
Naked Sushi was a great read. Reo took one look at Layla and was like I got to have her. And when Reo was eating sushi off of Layla was piping hot!! It was interesting learning about Nyotaimori. And I'm curious about Reo's boss. I loved the book it was definitely entertaining and a page turner.
The relationship started with him saying her and continued to sushi. That's a winning combination. Reo instantly opened his world for her as his red band bonded him to Layla forever. Her pride kept her integrity intact, but that was the extent of her self care, until he swooped in and showed her her worth. The sensuality, was topped only by the deep understanding he had for her struggles, and the work he did to touch her body and her heart.
This book was amazing!!! From the first page to the last I was pulled in. The action, drama, and sex was perfection. The level of detail and research is one of the reasons I love Kenya Wright’s books and she did not disappoint this time. I loved, loved, loved this book and I hope we see this couple again!!!
I am absolutely blown away by this book. Kenya Wright delivered another intense, heart-pounding, compelling, addictive story. Naked Sushi is unique, fast-paced, emotionally arousing and oh so wicked HOT. Reo and Layla are worlds apart but have similar life experiences- no parents and siblings with addiction issues. I was unprepared for all the action and graphic goodness in this story. OMG, the intense, heart-racing connection between the couple in the shower.
Damn KW! How do you continue to create these bad ass alpha men, who should be frightening, but women can't stay away from? 😂 I didn't know what to make of this read in the beginning, other than Footman creeping me the hell out! Then it gets interesting when we meet Layla, and Reo swoops in to save the day! Reo is immediately smitten with Layla, and has big plans for her. But, Layla is dealing with a big family issue. Trying to save someone, who doesn't want to be saved. Reo was always right on time with the assist, when Layla needed him. Whew! The torture that Reo put Footman through was savage! Reo and Layla had a connection and chemistry so 🔥, that it singed my pages! I loved that a man so powerful allowed himself to be soft and vulnerable with his woman. Ali was adorable with his quirky self, and was always right in step with what Reo needed. The reference to the mosquito was cute, and makes me want more of those stories as well! I hope we hear more from these two, as I need more! Great job! 👍👍👍
