A very quick and scintillating read.

Exactly as the blurb promises, this book delivers. I do wish it had been a little longer.

[Sheila M. · Rating 5 out of 5]

Willow has written another erotic fantasy that zings with details of explicit scenes between Layla, her best friend’s brothers Charlie and Heath, and six of Heath’s friends. One of Heath’s friends does not participate because he is monogamous with his fiancé. The book title and description are accurate, so a recap isn’t necessary. The ending is a happy for now but hints that more of the story could be told.

Willow’s books tend to be a whole lot of smut with a hint of a storyline, and this book is the same. That being said, prepare for a short, hot story. Grab a fan and a cold drink because you are going to need it.

This book is unapologetic erotica: direct, explicit, and shamelessly bold. From the very first chapter, clothes come off and the action kicks in, making it a perfect read for those seeking instant gratification. The protagonist, Layla, stands out for her confidence and control over her sexuality, diving into her desires with a boldness that borders on the fantastical. There’s no deep plot or emotional layers here—this is a gangbang fantasy in novel form, complete with porn-style dialogue and scenes that leave nothing to the imagination. If you're looking for erotica that makes no excuses and delivers pure pleasure, you've found it.

[Rose Seals · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fantastic fast paced novella by this author. Lots of hot steamy scenes. Layla and her best friend are to meet up for their spring break. But as she rides with Charlie, her BFF's brother, her friend gets sick and doesn't show up. Layla catches Charlie in his room and decides to help Charlie have a good time. In the meantime, Charlie's brother , Heath, shows up and turns the vacation into a free for all. Layla has the best time with them all. Hang on to your seat and the sharing going on. Would recommend.

I am an ARC and leave this unbiased, honest review.

Another good erotica novella by Ruan Willow. It's jammed pack with steamy sex with Layla getting to fulfill her fantasies. There's not really much of a storyline which is typical of Ruan Willow's, but then she gets into explicit detail when describing the sex scenes. It sorted ended abruptly because I wanted to know if any relationship actually developed between Layla and her friend's twin brother, Charlie. It was a quick, fun read.

This book has all the steam and 7 sexy men for one woman. Layla is the only woman in a cabin full of guys. Two are her best friend's brothers and five are the oldest brothers med school friends. It becomes a sexual fantasy free for all. A lot of Layla's fantasies come true and she gets a lot closer to her BF's twin brother. This is a steamy short read erotic tale of adventure.

[N.A. Wolf · Rating 5 out of 5]

Is this book amazing? No. Is the story life changing? No. Is it smutty? Yes. I think what the bad reviews miss is that this is smut. It's not a romance. This is a woman having her fantasies fulfilled by 7 hunky men. This was a fun quick read with all the spice you could ask for. To the right audience who know what they are getting into this is an enjoyable read.

First book in the series and we meet Layla and her BFF's twin brother, Charlie. Charlie is kind of introverted. The 3 of them are off to the family's cabin for spring break. Layla's BFF gets sick and go. So, Layla is thinking it is going to be a long week, until Charlie's older brother and a bunch of his friends show up also. Layla loves being the only female and the antics she gets up to makes this book a great hot read.

[BooksToTheGrave · Rating 4 out of 5]

One spring break, two friends, one brother.
Take one friend and replace her with another brother and his friends. His hot friends. As hot as the brothers…
What do we have? Fire in the cabin. Oh, how hot it will get inside that cabin…

I enjoyed the plot and the craziness of it. It sounded believable, not just a way to make it happen.
The downside? Sometimes I couldn't tell who was who.
As the sexy parts: well-written and fun for all.

Love this story! Great scenes! And I love how the female was raised in a home with a healthy outlook on sex, so she doesn’t have the hangups so many are raised with. I rarely read a book a second time. I’ll likely read this one again…

SPRING BREAK AND STRANDED WITH HER BEST FRIEND'S BROTHERS: BOOK 1, my third read from author Ruan Willow. A 1-hour 45-minute/78-page read/listen that has little plot and a whole LOT of spice. “I received an Audiobook.com copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." The gifting of this book did not affect my opinion of it. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

Ruan willow is a new author for me. Was given this novel as an arc. I'm leaving a honest review.
There was just the right amount of spice and the blurp is extremely on point. Imagine going on spring break and having the time of your life with two hunks. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us in book 2.

[Michelle Odwin]

This was a great fantasy come to life book. Although it was a short story, it packed a punch. Layla living out her fantasy of having multiple men was just the tip of the iceberg, I definitely wanted more. Great story to read.

I'm so surprised at how short it was, it made me want to know more about Charlie and the FMC!! It was exactly what the book description says it was going to be. This was for fun and vibes.

What is the worst that could happen while her best friend was not there? No trouble to be had?! High emotions.. excitability. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

[Emzy Strong · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an interesting story. I like the set up. We have a bit of the background, enough to get the ball rolling. The characters have some boldness and great potential to them. I really enjoyed the spice and the way things have played out so far. I look forward to what happens next.

[Jeannie · Rating 4 out of 5]

Short and sexy!

I loved that no one judged each other and they all just enjoyed their time together. I like the innocent and not so innocent all in one story. This was a fun short story.

[Tracy H · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very spicy. Loved the best friends support. Wanted more of a HEA but good spice and chemistry.

[Elysia’s Book Nook · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was an improvement over the last book I read by this author. It was a quick read and was overall fairly enjoyable.

[Desiree DuBois · Rating 3 out of 5]

I would give this 5 stars for the concept, but the writing style could use some work.

[Monkeys Books · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved it! It was amazing. It was so beautiful. I was hooked from the beginning. I was hanging onto every word.

[Kim Wuyts · Rating 2 out of 5]

hardly any storyline and always doing the same things. need more variation.

Besties
What do besties do on spring break….they run away and have a great time! Well sometimes they try to achieve that goal. Sickness, car trouble, a lake and too many men to count. What’s a girl to do but Have Fun!

If you’ve ever read a Ruin Willow book you know what you’re in for.

Layla is meant to spend spring break with her best friend at the friend’s cabin only for Layla to find out her friend’s sick and she’s all alone with the brothers and their friends. Good thing this is exactly what she could want out of a spring break.

There is no plot to this story which was to be expected. I didn’t choose to read this for that but for the spicy scenes Ruin Willow thinks up. To expect more would be a disappointment as this book delivers exactly what it says it does.

Cheeky, sexy, and hilarious- a perfect erotic short story featuring one girl and several guys while her best friend is out of the picture.
