Publisher's Summary

From New York Times best-selling author Laurelin Paige, book 1 in the Fixed Trilogy

Fixed on You is the first book in a trilogy but ends without a cliffhanger. Due to mature material, it is recommended for ages 17+.

Stalking and restraining orders are a thing of Alayna Wither's past. With her MBA newly in hand, she has her future figured out - move up at the nightclub she works at and stay away from any guy who might trigger her obsessive love disorder. A perfect plan. But what Alayna didn't figure on is Hudson Pierce, the new owner of the nightclub. He's smart, rich, and gorgeous - the kind of guy Alayna knows to stay away from if she wants to keep her past tendencies in check. Except, Hudson's fixed his sights on her. He wants her in his bed and makes no secret of it. Avoiding him isn't an option after he offers a business proposition she can't turn down and she's drawn further into his universe, unable to resist his gravitational pull.

When she learns Hudson has a dark history of his own, she realizes too late that she's fallen for the worst man she could possibly get involved with. Or maybe their less than ideal pasts give them an opportunity to heal each other and finally find the love their lives have been missing.

Good, but

Decent storyline, though similar to Fifty in some aspects. Need a better narrator. Her lead male and female voices were mixed up. The voices would go along ok, then the lead female voice would be used for the lead male voice. The narrator would realize the mistake, and switch mid-sentence. Quite bothersome.

Nothing wrong with a little crazy!

I can relate to Lanie a little bit. That moment of obsessing and stalking when there is a nagging feeling that something is wrong...which leads to bad decisions.... but Lanie was on another level and it worked for her. Now Hudson was all sorts of confused, how anyone can make a game out of pain and heartache is beyond me. Who knew 2 crazies can add up to sanity? Despite the 50 shades jabs, i think this was an enjoyable read worth my credit....and 1 more narrator added to my list when I go trolling for books!

Great story but need more!

The story and plot grabbed my attention, but there were a few thing preventing it from being a five star.

The relationship between Alayna and Hudson moved pretty quick. I almost didn't understand how they got to the sexual aspects before knowing anything about each other. It was more insta lust and the the "proposal".

I did like the back story of both of their "unhealthy" issues and that seemed to set them on similar levels. I liked how Paige walked me through Alayna's steps and how she continues to overcome.

The performance was ok. Often times Robins would confuse character voices which then confuses me of who was speaking. I hope that is not the case in the next book in the series.

Exciting, Complex Relationships

Laurelin Paige brings you in to her story and doesn't let you go. The craziness of the relationship between Alayna and Hudson is romantic until you begin to understand the sickness behind their connection. Their chemistry doesn't have a chance with the lies between them, or does it? The narrator does a good job of conveying the different personalities of the characters. However, sometimes I'm not sure who is talking. I will move on to volume 2 in this series just to see where this story goes.

Pretty good effort

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Probably not. It wasn't my favorite romance novel ever. But the narrator was pretty good.

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

I think the story was too long. It really didn't need to be three books. I have read very few book that should, in my humble opinion. Maybe the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Which scene was your favorite?

I think the scene where she rides the elevator actually had me cracking up in my car. I thought I would get into an accident.

Do you think Fixed on You needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

I think the story could have been wrapped up in one book, two max.

Any additional comments?

I think the story lacked something. I think a lot of romance stories these days lack big enough stakes. I hate to compare a book to another because they are different experiences. However, this book was not as good as the Crossfire series, but heads and tails better than fifty shades of grey.

What an Exquisite display of male Sex - Drooling !

Any additional comments?

Holy crap I LOVED this book! I am pretty sure I had a huge grin on my face for at least 5 minutes after reading this book. I may have even been clutching my iPhone to my chest so that I could hold on to Hudson and Alayna just a little bit longer. If I am being completely honest I sort of obsessed over Hudson and Alayna just a little bit, but only for like a day... I couldn't get them out of my head, and I have already come up with numerous different scenarios that I think could possibly take place for book 2. I don’t think I have been obsessed with a couple like this since…..well actually I think it was Tristan and Danika and that was only last week but still. This couple is one that is going to stay with me, right on up there with Gideon and Eva; Christian and Ana and James and Bianca...

My favorite part of the book that has stayed in my head... "But it wasn't just his incomparable beauty and exquisite display of male sex that had me burning between my legs and searching for the nearest exit. It was how he looked at me, in a way that no man had ever looked at me, a hungry possessiveness present in his stare as if he not only had undressed me in his mind, but had claimed me to be sated by no one ever again except him"... Gosh, i'm drooling all over the place !! :)

I so loved the Narration by Carly Robins, the voice she uses for Hudson is soooo Very Sexy, oh Yummy... I have already grabbed book two and three and can't wait for more Sexy time with this wonderful couple :)

Can't wait to read more!

I am so giddy when I feel this way about the first of a book within a series. It just makes my heart happy knowing I am going to have lots to read in the future from a great author and get lost in a great love story. Passionate and sexy! I am totally into the characters and enjoy the length of this book. I usually read 20 hour books but having these shorter ones is really refreshing. Cannot wait to get the entire series after reading this one, now I won't hesitate!

Great trilogy! A must read for all romantics!

If you could sum up Fixed on You in three words, what would they be?

I Want Another! Meaning after the first book you need the second one and the third is a must.

What did you like best about this story?

There was always hot chemistry throughout the whole book.

What about Carly Robins’s performance did you like?

Carly Robins definitely did this series justice. She was the perfect narrator for the for characters in this book.

If you could take any character from Fixed on You out to dinner, who would it be and why?

I think I would a good sit down dinner with Jack. I feel he has a lot more insight than given credit for.

Any additional comments?

Don't stop here go ahead and get the next two. Most definitely worth the time and credit!

Not so Fixed

I downloaded this book because it had great reviews and the narrator was highly rated, however, I didn't like it. Honestly the story was too predictable and the narrator was just okay. If I had it to do over I wouldn't use a credit on this one. I won't be listening to the rest of the series.

Great story, horrible male narration!

The story was a great love story, however the narrator couldn't do a male voice without sounding like The creepy little creature from Lord of the Rings! Every time he called her precious I pictured shmeagle (sp???) or whatever the creatures name is hovering above his ring. Not that romantic! If they'd
had a male do the male narration it would have been 5 stars

Strangely unerotic. Waste of a credit.

Boring, uninspiring, ho hum.

The only thing that's unique is the main character has a stalking obsession. The gentleman, Hudson something-or-other is completely stereotypical.

Really, there's not a lot to say about the story. Rich mogul meets poor, struggling woman. Rich mogul makes an offer she can't refuse. Boring sex ensues, they fall in love in spite of both being love-shy.

It has nothing special. Stick with Crossfire. Even 50 shades is a better quality story, which says all that needs to be said. Don't bother. Don't waste the credit.

rich and sexy

loved this first instalment. the best bit is how they have both had destructive pasts and how they find a softness between the lines. I cannot wait to get the rest of the books in this series

Disappointing rubbish

Such a predicable load of nonsense, the tedioum of someones ordinary life holds NO interest to me, how this was published is beyond me, I despaires before the end, I had wasted enough hours of my life to continue
I'd like it removed completeky from my library so that I don't have to be reminded of the wasted purchase along with other novels from the same Author, all droll

Great storyline, characters and plenty of HEAT!

Alayna and Hudson have dark pasts that they both try to hide from each other. Alayna an obsessive love addict, needs to steer clear of Hudson, exactly the kind of man that could trigger her obsession but Hudson has other ideas. He wants her and what he wants, he gets.

I love that both the main characters are beautifully flawed. They are both trying to keep their pasts in the past but are so drawn to each other they can’t help but begin to fall. This book is chocked full of emotions. Hudson appears to be such a jerk but underneath it all he really does have the ability to care and cares deeply for Alayna. The book is set around a trendy new nightclub that Alayna works at and Hudson is the new owner of. It is full of life and vibrancy. There are more than a few heated moments between these two, in fact I was definitely fanning myself from time to time.

Carly Robins does a great job of giving us the paranoid Alayna. We really get a sense of what it’s like living with an obsessive disorder. She has a great range of emotions and voices in her performance. I really enjoyed this audiobook and have gone straight onto the next in the series.

Once again Laurelin doesn’t disappoint on any front. There is a great storyline, characters you want to get to know and champion, whose traits develop over the course of the book and heat that will melt your ear buds out of your ears or your screens right in front of your very eyes!!! This is book 1 in the trilogy but it doesn’t end in a cliffhanger. Although all 3 books are out so binge away baby!

First audible

this is the first time I have listened to an audible book and I binged the story. the narration was not bad either so I was able to keep up. I really enjoyed it

Titilsting and enjoyable, sexy, short story. Fun to read.

Story a bit far fetched but fun from start. I should be so lucky.
Enjoyable, I couldn't put it down till I got to the end, which was a bit of an anticlimax but also a bit of a surprise.
I loved it and want to read another Lorain Page book.

One of my favourite audiobooks of all time
