Powertools: Collection 1

Rate this book
This Powertools collection includes Kate's Crew and Morgan's Surprise (Powertools, Books 1 & 2) in a single volume.

KATE’S CREW

Nothing’s sexier than men with power tools.

Sultry summer heat has nothing on the five-man crew renovating the house next door. No one could blame Kate for leaning out the window for a better view of the manscape. The nasty fall that follows isn’t part of her fantasy—but the man who saves her from splattering the sidewalk is definitely the star.

When Mike personally attends to her injuries, she realizes her white knight in a hard hat has a tender side, giving her no choice but to surrender to the lust that’s been arcing between them since day one. In the aftermath of the best sex of her life, she whispers her most secret to be ravaged by his crew.

She never expected Mike would dare her to take what she wants—or that the freedom to make her most decadent desires come true could be the foundation for something lasting…

This book may cause you to spontaneously combust as five hot guys bring a woman’s wildest fantasies to life during one blazing summer affair.

MORGAN’S SURPRISE

For a tasty birthday treat, add four men and stir.

Note to When confessing a crush on an ultra-hot construction worker to your best friend, make sure he’s not standing right behind you.

If Morgan thought spilling the beans on her lust for Joe would scare him off, she couldn’t have been more wrong. Following her birthday wish gone awry, the hunk is treating her to one surprise after another. From little things that make her smile to lavish, romantic dates, Joe is turning out to be the stuff of dreams.

Joe’s attentions to the sexy pastry shop owner begin as lighthearted fun. Until he finds out about the past that, until now, has made her keep him at arm’s length. Determined to show her seeking pleasure is no crime, he sets out to fulfill her steamiest fantasies—with a little help from three of his best friends.

After a four-course birthday adventure, which presents Morgan as the sweetest imaginable dessert, she expects Joe to walk away. But now that Joe’s brought Morgan out of her shell, he’s hungry for something he never expected to crave—a forever kind of love.

This book features a m/m/m/m/f ménage. Enough said.

Yup. I gave this one 5 stars.

This book was surprisingly good. Yes, it was ridiculous and I think the fact that I expected that going into this was helpful, but what I was not expecting the romance to be so strong in both of the stories. Particularly in the second book, the hero was so freaking sweet and it was actually romantic – not something you’d expect from a reverse harem novel at all!

Beyond that – I love how each of the stories were seasonal. The first book felt like summer and the second had all the autumn vibes.

Ok so this is the first book or books that I have read by Jayne Rylon. There's no Mafia or MC story line but there is a construction crew and the only word I can come up with is "Greek Gods". In KATE’S CREW (MMMMMF) I love the tension and lust that built over time between Mike and Kate. But Kate has a secret desire and when she voiced it would Mike run or would he make it happen? You will have to read to find out. In MORGAN’S SURPRISE (MMMMF) Morgan tells her BFF how she feels about Joe, LOL he over heard her and OH how he fulfills her fantasies. These two books in this collection are Hot, Sexy, Wildly Provocative and Steamy. Powertools indeed. Each book is a short, fun read. I am going to have to read the full version of them next. I am looking forward to reading Kayla's Gift also.

Steamy

Jayne Rylon is the best at multiple letters. M/m/m/m/m/f or any variable combination you can think of. If you aren't into reverse harem, or menage, don't read these. If you're looking for an adventure, don't miss them!

If you are looking for a very steamy book that included hot contractors, here is it. This is book one and two. Look forward to reading the next ones.

Powertools: Collection 1 by Jayne Rylon is actually 2 books. Both books are fairly short, so this would be a good choice for those with limited time for reading. These books are well-written, however, there are group sex scenes in both books, so they may not be for everyone. Kate's Crew is book 1 of the Powertools Series. This book is loaded with awesome characters, drama, humor and burning down the house sexy bits.
Kate's Crew is book 1 of the Powertools Series. This book is loaded with awesome characters, drama, humor and burning down the house sexy bits.
Morgan's Surprise is book 2 of the Powertools Series and has the same male characters as book 1 with the addition of a new female. Again, awesome, lovable characters, drama, humor and sizzle.
I enjoyed reading Powertools: Collection 1 and look forward to reading more from Jayne Rylon in the future. These are complete books, not cliff-hangers.

Wow, this book, which includes Kate's Crew and Morgan's Surprise, was super HOT!
In book one, Kate has been fantasizing about the group of men renovating the house next door, and when one of the men from the crew, Mike, asks her out, she keeps refusing because she is hot for all of them. When she mentions to Mike about how she feels, Mike lets her know that he is more than okay with her fantasies.
In book two, Morgan is Kate's friend and has Mike's crew working to help get her cake shop up and running. Morgan finds all the men hot but has a definite interest in Joe, and the feeling is mutual. Joe takes Morgan on a date to remember.
Like I said, super HOT! Might have to check out the rest of the series.

Actual Story Not Included

Both books in the Powertools series are nothing more than three over the top sex scenes held together by a little interaction between the heroine & main hero. The author purposefully skips over the intimate, relationship building scenes in order to jump into another gang bang. The lack of character and plot development makes the Powertools collection a very unsatisfying read.

Very surprising but a steamy surprise

Extremely hot read. I'm sure I blushed while reading which is hard to do to me. I was surprised by the turn of events and loved the fact that while both, book 1 and book 2 had the same general idea, both books were different enough to keep me interested and not the same series of events in the same order with different character names as many other series tend to be. Well done, ready to add the next book to my collection.

This collection has two books in it, Kate's Crew, and Morgan's Surprise. Kate's Crew is about Kate and Mike falling for each other while Morgan's Surprise is about Morgan and Joe falling for each other. Both books are hot as heck with a ton of sexy time in both. There is group action too which is amazing. Powertools: Collection 1 is hot, hot, HOT!!

To call these novellas, is to be generous. They barely qualify for publishing. Zero plot, just smut on a page and not very good smut at that. Heavy reliance on the thesaurus for anatomical descriptors. Was a free download and easy to see why. Don't bother. I've read better unedited fanfic then this mess here.

Too hot

Man, this book had everything to get you in a horny mood! I couldn't put the book down! The sex between these people were beautiful! To find men that are so close and share everything! I would love to find friends like that, meaning men friends!

Ménage sex and ??!

Rylon writes really hot ménage sex scenes, but these books have no character development and virtually no plot other than getting all the participants in the same room and letting lust take over.

HOT!!!!

Holy WOW that was HOT!! For short stories there was a good amount of detail packed in there. The stories felt complete when they ended, but with the possibility for them to continue, which I love. I definitely want to read the next story!

HOT!!!

This author has a seriously hot series going here. I kept my husband very busy after reading these. Kate is one lucky girl. And it just keeps getting better. If you don't mind sharing times five this is definitely the series for you. Yummy, five sexy men...

Hot as hell!

Holy sh*t! Perfect, steamy hot short story! The first story left me all hot and bothered! After this one, the Second story would be a four stars. It is good too, no doubt, but not as steamy as the first one. But I definitely want to read the other books!

Well hot damn that was a fantasy and a half. Great stories about a sexy, sensitive bunch of blokes and the 2 very lucky ladies that they entertain. I did choose to read another book in between the 2 books in this series just so that I could get the most out of the second book. Mighty hot.

If you want hot, erotic, #sexyAF stories--you're welcome!😂 I don't even mind that there wasn't much of a plot, and frankly, I'm not sure if there was any intentions of that. However, Ms. Rylon is very talented at writing the wildest fantasies and making them come to life beautifully.🔥🔥 🤤💦

Sexy construction crew fuels fantasies for a new kind of experience. Not only are they comfortable with each other's sexuality but can team the girl's fantasy to life. Steamy but ensuring relationship follows. Fast pace read. Love this series.

Oh my

This was a very interesting set of books. It sure kept my attention. Also thank you it is so nice to sit and read a story with no spelling errors. It makes it so much quicker to read a story when you don't have to try to figure out what they are saying. So thank you.

Super spicy book. There were a couple spots throughout the book that seemed awkward trying to describe the what the characters were doing, but overall a good, fast read. Looking forward to reading what is next.

DNF for me. The plot felt weak and didn’t hold my interest. There’s heaps of explicit content, great if that’s what you’re after, but for me, it needs to be backed by a solid storyline. I enjoy steamy reads, but this one didn’t deliver the depth I was hoping for.
