Story
Anastasia Villiers has hit rock bottom. And that rock is named Espoir Island. Abandoned by her disgraced investment banker husband who liquidated all of their assets and fled the country, Anastasia is left with nothing - except for Fishscale House, a broken-down Queen Anne in the Michigan hometown she swore she’d left for good. If Ana quickly renovates and flips the dilapidated building, she can get back to Manhattan and salvage her life. The problem? The only person on the island with historical renovation cred is Ned Fitzroy - Ana’s first love.

Story
Last night was the most embarrassing night of my life. I was that girl. You know, the highly intoxicated chick celebrating her 30th with her two best friends - the ones who are happily married. And the more I drank, the more I wanted to do something reckless to celebrate. By reckless, I meant the sexy and alluring man dressed in a business suit standing near the bar.

Story
Jolie Louis is a smart girl. She knows that her best friend, Sage Poirier, is a bad idea. He's a walking, talking cliché. The Adonis quarterback with the bulging biceps and harem of fangirls trailing behind him on campus like a stench you can't get rid of. Sadly, that's also the reason she can't stay away from him. Well, that and the fact that they're roommates. Jolie is already straddling the line between friendship and more when Sage comes to her with an offer she cannot refuse.

Standing at 6'8" with steel grey eyes, he's a walking dream, but he's also a world-renowned a-hole. Who would have thought that one night, after dragging myself home after doing double shifts at the diner, I'd be jumped by three men...only to have Xavier come to my rescue.

The stories were all wrong—Hook was never the villain. For two centuries, all of the Darling women have disappeared on their 18th birthday. Sometimes they’re gone for only a day, some a week or a month. But they always return broken. Now, on the afternoon of my 18th birthday, my mother is running around the house making sure all the windows are barred and the doors locked. But it’s pointless. Because when night falls, he comes for me. And this time, the Never King and the Lost Boys aren’t willing to let me go.

Boring. Invisible. Pretty for a plus-size girl. Those were all the things I felt about myself, thanks to my chosen career as an accountant and society’s depiction of the perfect female. So, I booked a trip to Vegas for my birthday. In walked Soul Matthias, treating me and my body as anything but ordinary. Player. Bad boy. High-risk. That’s what baseball owners banked on to lowball my contract. I had to get my act together. Then, in strutted Alexa Livingston. A breath of fresh air, someone completely different. But what we had wasn’t real. It was just a marriage contract.

Another fun read. A bit heavier on the sex
I can count on Frost to create a fun adventure with great sex scenes, and this novelette doesn't disappoint in that regard. This one didn't get 5 stars from me only because I wasn't drawn to the characters and situation as quickly and as fully as I normally am in a Frost story, and necause I prefer her stories where the characters and and plot capture me fully before the sex comes in to ice the cake. Still, I enjoyed this, and think that I'll enjoy rereading it even more than the first read, now that I'll already know and love the characters. Tavia Gilbert was once again a good choice of reader.

Did I miss something?
Would you listen to Night’s Darkest Embrace again? Why?
No. I don't generally listen to books a second time.
Would you recommend Night’s Darkest Embrace to your friends? Why or why not?
If you are a Frost fan, this is worth the read.
What does Tavia Gilbert bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Tavia does an outstanding job in reading.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
I'm Fallen, and I can't get up
Any additional comments?
The worst thing about this book is that for at least half the book, I kept thinking that I missed something. I kept going back to the book description, to see if I accidentally got the second book in a series. But no, this is the first. The book reads as if you should know about Nocturna, and the protagonist's early ventures there. It isn't until the very last chapters that she explains what happened back when she was a teen, and then it isn't even that compelling. I had a few books in my playlist, and i kept going to other books and then coming back to this. Oy, not one of the best of Frost's books. I will say that it ended okay, and if there was a second book, there is a story worth building on.

For younger readers than me
While this novella did a decent enough job of providing a diversion, it was not as interesting as the authors more fully developed works. It would likely be better received by the teen & early 20's set than someone like me on the far side of 40.

Disappointed, even Tavia didn't make it better
This book wasn’t for you, but who do you think might enjoy it more?
Maybe junior high.
Would you ever listen to anything by Jeaniene Frost again?
Yes, because I love at least 6 or 7 of her books. Her Cat and Bones, and her dark prince books.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
She is one of my favorites, top 4. I just did not like her in this.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment, I expected more from Jeanine.

Pretty good story :)
3.5-4 stars
This is in a different world than the other books by Frost but it was an interesting one. The normal human world exists but there are also portals that lead to other worlds, some ruled by hybrid-demons (from pureblood/human matings) and some in which only pureblood demons (the offspring of Fallen angels) live. Pureblood demons feed on hybrid-demons that haven't reached 18 yet and are hated because of it. No other supernatural creatures were mentioned in this story so I don't know if any other types exist.
This was a pretty good story. Mara is a 22 year old Hybrid-demon (1/4 demon) and Raphael is a hybrid that rules a world, Nocturna, that is inhabited by hybrids and never has daylight. Mara and her cousin, Gloria, entered Nocturna as teens to party and it ended badly, with Gloria dead. Mara feels guilty and hasn't been able to let go of the idea of finding the person responsible.
There's an extremely strong attraction between Raphael and Mara but she doesn't trust it because Mara is suspicious of Raphael. TBH, Mara was kind of being an idiot because she assumed a lot and saw a lot of circumstantial evidence as conclusive proof of wrongdoing. It annoyed me a bit but it was workable and moved the story in the right direction. After some angst and such, things do get worked out in a way I liked and Raphael and Mara end the story together and headed for a HEA.
This was a pretty enjoyable story. Mara...well, she was obviously young and didn't completely use her brain. I actually think her assumption that Raphael must be a bad guy is because she was freaked by her feelings for him. I liked her very much once she got past those assumptions. Raphael..he was great and made it to my book-boyfriend list (I just wish we got more facetime with him). Overall, this was a pretty enjoyable and interesting story that I would recommend. :)
