Indiscretion #1
Indiscretion: Volume One
F*ck and chuck. Pump and dump. Hit it and quit it. One night stand. Didn’t matter how I branded it—that’s all she'd wanted it to be. That much was clear when she left me with my pants down and my dick still out.
What she hadn’t counted on was fate intervening and our worlds colliding—again.
The day I showed back up in the life of Chloe Griffins, I knew I had to have her again. My body was hungry for another taste. Like an addict, I’d been craving another hit for months, and there she was—flesh and bone, tits and ass.
The fact that she worked for the competition should’ve been reason enough for me to leave her alone. I had a job to do that summer and f*cking Chloe wasn’t part of it. But I was like a man possessed.
I’d do whatever it took to have her again.
*** This is the first instalment in the Indiscretion serial. Volumes 1-3 are approximately 23K-25K in length, with the final fourth instalment being longer. The release schedule is as Volume 2: Aug 18th, Volume 3: Sept 1st, Volume 4: Sept 15th.

I was totally captivated by this book. SIZZLING HOT!
“Quite a mix of innocence and seduction, Chloe. Why do I have a feeling this might be a reflection of you as a whole.”
It was supposed to be a one-night stand.Two months later, they meet again. And between them it was a pretty nice the truth and dare game.
The chemistry between Max and Chloe was great. They were sexy and fun. This was lust and an incredibly hot sexual attraction.
Chloe doesn’t want to be with him because she doesn’t have time for relationship. It is not easy to be together when the chemistry is so strong.
I can't wait to see what happens next.

His warm breath on my neck sent a tingle of anticipation down my spine. I prayed to God I hadn’t just made a deal with the devil.
The chemistry between Max and Chloe was great. They were sexy and fun. This was lust and an incredibly hot sexual attraction.
I was drawn to him like a river to the ocean, and it didn’t seem like there was much I could do about it. Fate kept putting us in each other’s way, and in that moment, looking into his eyes and seeing all the passion and lust reflected back, I decided not to fight any longer.
Chloe doesn’t want to be with him because she doesn’t have time for relationship. It is not easy to be together when the chemistry is so strong.
As the silence stretched on, it felt like a third person was at the table with us—me, Max, and the sexual tension neither of us was acknowledging at the moment.
I can't wait to see what happens next.

Loved this! What a great start to this serial! Chloe is in New York for her friends bachelorette party and has a steamy hook-up with a super hot and sexy stranger she meets at a club. Imagine her surprise when she runs into her one night stand months later. Max is all kinds of sexy and I love how he goes after what he wants. He's hot, rich and mysterious. I love the connection between these characters. Of course, being a serial, this one ends in a cliffhanger and I can't wait for Volume 2 to see what's going to happen! Highly recommend!

My opinion and has some small spoilers, but not about the ending. Just what made me not connect to the characters.
Here are my thoughts.
I was excited to read this one but I am tired of the annoying BFF that pushes her friend to have sex with a stranger. (The friend can tell by the guy's looks that he is not a serial killer?!?!) I just did not feel the connection. I mean what was it about the Chloe that had Max so taken by her? Was she that beautiful?? What made her so beautiful??? I mean he barely spoke two sentences to her before she pushed herself down his cock. How did he know she was all "innocence and seduction"? She was at a bar attending a bachelorette party?!?! Written in dual POVs so you know what each character is thinking at all times.
It is probably all me and may work for you. Honestly. You should probably give it a try. I love when couples meet at bar, but this one had no connection for me before they went and did it minutes after meeting.
The heroine meets a stranger at a bar at her BFF's bachelorette party. She has sex with him and then leaves without telling him goodbye or anything only to see him 2 months later.

I just finished reading Indiscretion two hours ago. And wow.
Wow.
I don’t usually do this. As a matter of principle I don’t fangirl over novellas. I don’t squeal over books that left me hanging.
Or, I didn’t used to do that.
Honestly, though, what right does Miss Grace think she has leaving us hanging there? It was going so well. There were no words. And then poof.
TO BE CONTINUED.
Like how is a girl supposed to react after a cliffhanger like that? How? HOW?
Chloe’s best friend Jackie thinks she needs to loosen up and have fun with some boys. Chloe’s been hurt before, though, and does not wish to be hurt again. So after a “tête-à-tête” with Max in a bachelor party, she moves on with work and life.
Except, Max doesn’t. she’s consumed his thoughts and when a happy turn of events leads them to each other again, the chemistry is mind-blowing and everything just sizzles between these two.
Max is a bit closed off, but we do learn some stuff about his past. His father is a business tycoon and he comes from money, but I like fact that he doesn’t want to be known by his father’s identity. He wants to be his own person and I loved that about him. He was one of the few characters I’ve read that I actually liked the first time I read him. He left a lasting first impression.
Especially on Chloe.
The book is a part of a four volume series and I, for one, cannot WAIT to read about these two. I loved Max, Chloe is just the right amount of sass and sexiness and they’re amazing with each other.
Although the premise does state that they’re competitors, it didn’t feel like it in the book. But I’m going to wait to read Volume 2 before I really make a comment on that. Sadly, Max is not a dirty talker—yet—which was something I was kind of banking upon, but hey. He sang Britney Spears. I’m cool with anything a guy like that has to offer.
Indiscretion: Volume One oozes sexual tension and trust me on this: You’re not going to want to stop at Volume One. It ends at a cliff hanger but the book is just completely worth it :D

Okay you people!
So Angela (yes Angela the developmental editor of the book) practically shoved down this book into my diaphragm. Mmmm okay maybe not shoved, pep-rallied maybe?
But thank you Anj for doing it so and thanks Lis for graciously providing me a copy!
HOLY HELL MAX.
HOLY HELL MAX.
I read it in the office and that's probably the greatest mistake I have ever made because hello? Reading about Max Richfield in the freaking office is a BIG FUCK NO.
NO people, do not make the same mistake as I did because you need to read it alone in a cave or some place where you can beck and call someone to rescue you from the fires of Max. This book is sizzling hot!
Great start to a new novella series!
And now on to the next! ;)

Hot little taster of whats to come I hope.
Fast paced read a one night stand that will end up anything but.
They hit it off in a club banged it out and didnt realise how much alike they were, well not much talking went on, cloe sneeked away after the encounter leaving hotty Max but its a small world when fates involved.
Cloe is climbing her way up real estate & Max was the son of a property billionaire.
Short read that entices you onto the next book with its edgy hair raising cliff hanger.

I have been dying to read this book, stalking the author like a total fangirl for weeks to get my greedy little paws on this series. She finally had mercy on me and let me read Vol. 1 & 2. I couldn't put it down. I devoured them both within just a few hours and loved every single word. I absolutely love Chloe and Max and I can't wait to see what happens next!!

Very quick read. I liked it, nice characters and storyline so far, but we will have to wait and see how it all ends because it´s not over yet! 1st out of 4!! Why not just make it into a one book instead of 4 short books? This is so starting to piss me off!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!!
But I want to know how this turnes out, so off to the next one...

Review to come...
In the first line started laughing. Chloe is in her best friends bachelorette party, Jackie, who is giving her a bad time for not having fun and letting herself get carried away by the moment and see the what's arround her. Chloe believes that her prince charming doesn't exist, In her life she has lost people that she loved the most (for different reasons), so she believes that she'll never find the right man for her to spend the rest of her life with, as Jackie found hers.
When looking around the bar she sees a pair of blue eyes that leave her fixed to them, not to mention his body is to die for, but Chloe finds that the owner of these eyes is a lot of sand for her truck. With the help of the drink and the insistence of her friend, Chloe ends up opening more and tries to enjoy the night.
"I could see from here—this guy was smokin’. And not like a ‘let’s cook some marshmallows over the fire’ kind of smokin’. He was three-alarm blaze, call-in-the-water-bombers smokin’."
When going out of the bathroom she notices that there are urinals, in the ladies room that's no necessary, in her drunken state she didn't even notice what signal was at the door. Chloe goes to the door but it opens and she takes it in her face, she feels hands arround her, making her stay put, that's when she looks up and see the pair of blue eyes.
Max always gets everything he wants, and he wanted Chloe since he'd seen her in the other side of the bar. He ask her to take a drink, she says yes and they are out to have a drink in a VIP room which leads to one night stand. She does not believe that was able to have sex with a stranger in a bar, so she asks permission to go cool off and ultimately leave it alone and go home.
Two months later, Chloe is on the floor of her office in a compromising position and hears footsteps and then a voice close to her that she recognizes. This is where Max and Chloe found each other after her abrupt getaway, during that time apart neither of them could forget that night in New York.
This book has the points of view of both main characters, is a smaller book because it is only volume one. It is a captivating story where on one hand we have Chloe who likes to use words that nobody else knows and thinks because of what happened in her past she will never find a soul mate, she's so dedicated to work and think one night stand is what she needed. On the other hand we have Max who comes from a different social level, is confident, doesn't accept 'no' for an answer so he always gets what he want, just like Chloe he is dedicated to work and a long term relationship is also not what he's looking for.
It is a light reading, ideal to read in an afternoon on the beach (cold water helps), when you finish this you'll want to read the other and the next and the final one.

Review to come...

The Indiscretion Series was my introduction to Elisabeth Grace's books and as a whole I enjoyed it. I was lucky to have all four volumes on hand, so I didn't have to wait between each release. Honestly, I'm not sure I would have continued on if I hadn't had all the books in the series. I did read the first two right away and made the decision to see it through and in the end, I'm glad that I did. Volume Three was my favorite in the series, but each one held a piece of the puzzle that kept me interested.
What worked for me:
~The chemistry between Max and Chloe was great. They were sexy and fun. I also just enjoyed their easy banter. It was clear to me from the beginning that this couple had the potential to be something really good.
~I liked seeing them fall in love despite having certain challenges in their way. They're both in real estate development and essentially became rivals. I liked that there was a background story about why their "bosses" were at odds with each other. It was more than just a business transaction, it was personal.
~The sex was pretty great. I read a lot of erotic romance and some authors have what it takes to make me melt and others...just write sex. Grace can write some really great sex. There were quite a few times that I felt a bit flushed. That said, I would venture that she could even push her limits a bit further. Especially since this was an erotic series. But still, I was pleased.
What didn't work for me: (may contain slight spoilers)
~I was really digging the suspense aspect of the story and as it played out, I was really disappointed. It was wrapped up quickly and easily. I was left feeling like "Why even add that into the story?"
~In Volume Four, Max is dealt a pretty rough hand. Now, I liked it, but I was also taken by surprise with the direction the series went in. I was happy with the result of this "issue", but I would have liked to have seen more regarding Max's surprising news.
~The last thing I wanted to mention was that I didn't really feel like Max's history about his brother needed to be added into the story. I understood that there needed to be a reason for the discord in his family, but again...it seemed abrupt.
~I think with all these issues combined, you may see a pattern. Overall, I felt that there were parts of the story that were a bit all over the place. I would have been happy with the work conflict and expanding Max's critical issue at the end. Those two issues would have presented enough conflict for me as a reader to keep my interest.
Overall, I did enjoy it as a whole. Volume Three was my favorite. It had the best flow and I loved the character development. It was also the sexiest volume, in my opinion. Am I glad I read it? Yes, I am. I really am glad that I stuck with it. I enjoyed the characters and I was in need of a sexy, so this certainly fit the bill! If you are a fan of serials and are in need of a sexy...check this one out!
Favorite Quote:
~"Every time I look at you, it's like the first time I saw you, and I thank my lucky stars all the time that we met. I can't imagine being apart from you again. I want you beside me every day-forever. Hell, forever won't be long enough."

Gitte: I’m always hesitant when starting a serial; is there enough to get me hooked in such few pages and is my curiosity and my emotions invested enough to continue upon finishing? Well, I kind of guessed I was going to enjoy it because I love Elisabeth Grace’s writing and yes….I’m hooked and look forward to the next instalment!
‘…she’d be like a Monet – all pastel shades, soft brush strokes, and muted lines. Me, I’d definitely be more of a Salvador Dali – dark colors, seeming chaos, and jagged edges.’
The sexy mysterious Max and the strong independent Chloe had a fab beginning here and errrr that cliffy….I was NOT expecting that one, were you Jenny?
Jenny: You bet boo boo! ! It’s that mixture of excited anticipation and that arrrgghh ‘we need it now’ feeling as we eagerly await the next instalment. Luckily for us, the Indiscretion serial will be released in quick succession so we won’t have long to wait to catch up with Chloe and Max’s. I loved Elisabeth’s writing. This the first installment of Indiscretion a sexy and fun escape. I found myself invested in the characters and can’t wait for more of their story.
‘I prayed to God I hadn’t just made a deal with the devil.’
The ending? Ummm No! I was absolutely NOT expecting that G!! I won’t be giving anything away, other than to say there is no way in hell I could have EVER predicted that scenario!
Gitte: I thought Indiscretion was sexy, intriguing and quite funny at times. An easy enjoyable read. We were given just enough to have our interest piqued and an inevitable connection made to our main characters who come from very different backgrounds which I’d love to know more about.
“This will just be a fling…Purely physical. Nothing more.”
I can’t wait to find out what happens next, bring it on right Jenny!
Jenny: Bring it on alright!! I’m intrigued that’s for sure and I’ll be frantically checking out book 2! So much I need to know! What’s the story with Max? What’s Chloe’s background? Where do they go from here? We had little carrots dangled in front of our faces and I’m looking forward to learning so much more as the serial progresses. Oh and I need some more steamy scenes – wow! These two really sizzled!

Wow! that was a great start to this novella series. I love novellas, they are short, sweet and get straight to the point without all the fluff and filler. To me, if it's a good novella, I will devour it swiftly and be ready for more straight away. This was a perfect example of that.
Chloe Griffins is gorgeous yet focused entirely on her career and her sister. Her sister has always been everything to her, as she was her replacement mother for so long. Now her sister has graduated and is off to college and Chloe has only her job to focus on. Her best friend is getting married and Chloe organises her bachelorette party, it's at this party in a swanky club in New York, that she decides it's about time she had some fun. She hasn't been with anyone since her ex cheated on her, and she decided she didn't need the hassle of men. After being without a man or any fun for so long, she thinks that night would be a good night to let loose. That's when she collides, literally with Max. He is stunning and just what she needs. After a crazy and intense evening, Chloe runs and puts her evening of fun far behind her and out of her mind. She doesn't live in New York so no need to bump into the sexy and smouldering Max. That's what she thinks.
It would seem that fate wants to intervene on this one, when Max rocks up where Chloe works, and it turns out they have quite a bit in common. So follows some hardcore chasing, that Max does extremely well. Chloe doesn't think she needs the enigmatic and sexy temptation of Max in her life in any way, but he tries to prove her wrong.
I love the chemistry between these two. Considering it's only 70 ish pages, we have been introduced to both characters and they have gotten under each other's skin perfectly in that time. It just starts to heat up when this comes to the end, so I'm extremely excited to get on to the second volume. An awesome start to what looks to be a hot and steamy series with some addictive characters.
**I was kindly given an ARC of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review**

I love the chemistry between these two. Considering it's only 70 ish pages, we have been introduced to both characters and they have gotten under each other's skin perfectly in that time. It just starts to heat up when this comes to the end, so I'm extremely excited to get on to the second volume. An awesome start to what looks to be a hot and steamy series with some addictive characters.

“Quite a mix of innocence and seduction, Chloe. Why do I have a feeling this might be a reflection of you as a whole.”
Indiscretion: Vol 1 is the first in a new serial by Elisabeth Grace. I am personally a sucker for serials and very much enjoyed this steamy fast read and cannot wait to read the next installment for Max and Chloe. This story revolves around two people who have a very good one-night (if you can call club sex one-night) stand in New York while Chloe is there for her best friends bachelorette party and the aftermath that follows when Max shows up in her home town and turns out works for the competition.
“I hadn’t been with many men, but none had ever made me feel so desired, so wanton, so sensual.”
I loved the premise of this story and that they accepted their chemistry right away only to find out later that they were professional competition for each other. Max comes from a rich family while Chloe’s parents died when she was younger and she has been struggling to raise her sister and make something for herself since. These two could not be more different but their sexual chemistry is off the charts and that leaves them both is the position of trying to figure out what to do about it.
“Please, you were the one who kissed me first!” “True, but you were the one who straddled me like you were gearing up to ride bronco,”
Of course this i>s just part one of what I believe is a four part serial so a lot of this is setting up for future drama and already I can feel the drama brewing. I have a great feeling that this is fast going to become and addictive and popular serial and I cannot wait to read more of it!

WOW WOW WOW!! The story starts off at one of New York City's newest high-end night clubs to celebrate Chloe best friend Jackie's upcoming wedding. While looking around her eyes lock on a set of piercing blue eyes(lets just say this guy was smokin'.And not like lets cook some marshmallows over the fire kind of smokin. He was three-alarm blaze, call-in-the-water-bomers smokin "MAX".Thinking he was way out of her league she didnt think much of it until she made a wrong turn and ended up in the mens bathroom.Ok long story short Chole and Max ended up in a VIP room and NEEDED A COLD SHOWER! Chole left the bar with out saying good by and not even knowing his last name.
TWO MONTHS LATTER.... Sexey Max and Chole connected again and lets just say the connection between them was still HOT HOT HOT!! Max is out to get what he wants and Chole is scard to give him what he wants. I Highly recommend you read this book it will not disappoint you.There is a part TWO of this book so it does have a cliffhanger (it involves a bear).I can not wait to read what happens next!!!Thank you Elisabeth Grace for another GREAT BOOK!!!

3.5-4 stars. Chloe is in NYC throwing a bachelorette party for her best friend Jackie when she runs into Max. Chloe is the sort of person who takes her responsibilities seriously, which includes looking after other people instead of herself. She's shut herself off to romance, but Jackie is encouraging her to step out of her box and to simply enjoy life. So Chloe does exactly that with Max and while their encounter was brief, it was memorable for both of them and liberating for Chloe. Since it was rather out of character for her, she leaves without a backwards glance and moves on with her life, only to be face to face with Max again later. Max is an interesting guy, he comes off as the rich playboy who is prowling for his next hookup, but when he's with Chloe, he's a lot more down to earth. I actually thought these characters were younger than their true ages because of how they act. I liked that Chloe was not how Max was predicting her to be and vice versa. The cliffhanger in this one is unexpected, along the lines of being out in left field, so I'll be curious to see how this particular development impacts Max and Chloe's relationship.

What a clever idea to publish a full length novel in sections. Although I’m sure others have tried this as well, I’ve never read one like this and I really enjoyed it.
In Elisabeth’s past two novels (which I loved) her writing style seemed to grow and improve with each book. With Indiscretion she blew me away- her attention to details and the descriptions she used made me feel like I was right there with the characters. Elisabeth also has the amazing talent of writing any genre and including humor into each one. I laughed out loud several times in this book.
The chemistry and connection between Max and Chloe was instant and so steamy. I was literally panting after their club encounter.
“This guy was smokin’. And not like a ‘lets cook some marshmallows over the fire’ kind of smokin’. He was three-alarm blaze, call-in-the-water-bombers smokin’.”
Neither of them are looking for commitment or anything other than a good time, so things should be easy right… You will have to pick up volume 2 to find out!

** TARA'S 4.5 STAR REVIEW **
And so it begins…
Chloe Griffins is out celebrating the upcoming marriage of a friend, when she locks eyes with Max Richfield. What ensues that night is unforgettable for both of them.
”I’m stashing my underwear in my purse, in the middle of a bar, because I just engaged in anonymous sex with a stranger.”
When their paths cross again a few months later, sparks will fly again, and the heat will be brought to Bar Harbor, Maine warming even the coldest of nights.
“This man did something to me, muddled my good sense.”
~~~~~~~~~~
This is part one of a four part series. It’s a super quick read that will make you want more, so I highly recommend picking up all Volumes at once so you do not have to wait. It is written in duel POV style and the characters are well portrayed and easy to relate to. You are not going to want to put this down, so find a place to be undisturbed and jump right in this hot & steamy read.

The anticipation in this book is killer. Great build-up of characters & story line.
Max & Chloe are both very job focused. When they meet up at a club one night they have a one night stand. Neither can get the other out of their heads and as fate would have it they meet up unexpectedly two months later. Chloe tries her hardest to brush Max off but he is very persistent in his pursuit. He’s charming & fun and we start to get a glimpse into Max’s life and I can’t wait to find more about him.
The writing is great and we get both Max & Cloe’s points of view letting us know what each is thinking and feeling. Their banter is witty and fun and leaves you wanting more.
This book is sweet & sexy and I can’t wait to see what’s going to happen with their relationship.

3.5 Sexually Frustrated Stars
I absolutely love these novella series. I am a huge follower of several of them. I hadn't heard about his until its release and I was super excited to start it.
I don't know if it is because I just came off of a string of amazing 4 and 5 star reads or what but this fell a bit flat for me.
If I was basing this book off the sexual tension and sexual intensity I would give it a mind blowing five stars. Storyline wise, however, it fell flat for me. And the ending was just a bit silly. Hahaha I can't say I had ever read an ending quite like that before.
All in all I give it a 3.5 stars and I will continue with this series but maybe not as a "Drop Everything and Read It Now".

Indiscretion was a hot little detour from my regularly scheduled reading! Chloe and Max's story is a quick and easy read, funny, steamy and fast-paced. Chloe has a one-night stand (actually a hot quickie) with handsome Max at a club in New York City. They never thought they'd see each other again but they run into each other in her hometown of Bar Harbor, Maine. Elisabeth Grace has a sexy, breezy, enjoyable writing style and does the alternating POV very well. Definitely ends on a cliffhanger but the next book is releasing very soon so I can't wait to see what's in store for these two!

A 5 star review for Elisabeth Grace!
Without revealing too much, Chloe Griffin's a busy lady, driven to get what she wants without complications.
A one night stand may unfortunately do just that, enter Max and the deal!
A great mix of hot chemistry, steamy sex and conflict, enough of everything to keep you wanting more from Chloe and Max!
I have never read a book by volume before but have to say I'm enjoying it very much!
I loved Vol.1 can't wait to read the next!
I highly recommend this series.
Bravo!

First I have to say that Contemporary Romance isn't my favorite genre. Saying that, this book was so good!!! It got my attention right from the start and I couldn't put it down. It was so hot, sensual, and sexy as hell!! I just fell in love with Max Richfield and wanted to just slap Chloe. You have a man like Max paying attention to you, you need to jump! He's so passionate and considerate. He knows what he wants and goes after it. He makes me swoon! I am so excited to read the next installment! I will be following this series to the end.

Looking for a quick sexy, fun, easy read! Look no further... Indiscretion delivers!
What a great, fun, fast read! Read it in a couple hours, really enjoyed it. It's got a feisty female, and billionaire sexy Alpha! What's not to love?
I'll be purchasing the rest of the books within this series ASAP!

Very meh and disappointing. The story's not original either. I was hoping that maybe it would be the writing that will be the saving grace of this book given the teeming amount of 5-star ratings this has received. But no, it wasn't of much help either. Tsk. Good thing this is only a few pages long.

Wow! This first book is just...wow! Hotness, teasing and a small cliffhanger.....I already love this couple so much! Chloe living in small town America meeting Mr. City Max. I love that they have this much connection right off the get go. I can't wait to see where this journey takes me.
