Dani Wyatt
129 books1,941 followersSince I was a little girl, I’ve made up stories. I would lay in my bed at night and before I knew what a trope was, I would make up these trope filled stories. Boy sees girl, boys falls for girl, boy saves girl….happily ever after. As I got older, the stories turned steamier and more intricate, but the basics never changed.
Now, my books are still full of romance but the naughty bits are naughtier, my hero’s are obsessed alpha types and my heroines are quirky, real women who come in all shapes and sizes.
So, sit back, banish the real world and get lost in some over the top romance with a heaping helping of hot. xoxoxo

This one was OK. It seemed a bit longer than her usual books. The hero was likable the heroine was a bit stupid IMO. She kept doing the same thing over and over again and losing all her money! I mean...duhh.

3.5 stars
Two people, each needing changes in their lives, meet when they need each other the most.
Hot, sexy and mature Lincoln saw Holli and instantly knew she was meant to be his. He couldn't believe his luck, that when his life was about to change tremendously, the one person he had been waiting for would find his way to him.
All Holli wanted to do was finish her degree. A promise made to her mom pushed her to finish. Short on funds, she finds herself at Lincoln's mercy - and the start of a new life.
-no cheating
-no ow/om drama
-older man (39) younger woman (21)
-some pushing from both- I was actually a little disappointed because at one point, Lincoln was going to go away without her (for what he felt was her safety) and that didn't feel very alpha to me.
-steamy sex scenes
-decent epilogue that was 5 years out

Lincoln Kirk knew Holli Holliday was his "the one" the minute he laid his eyes upon her. He is dead set on making her realise that she is meant to be his forever even if it's the last thing he does. He tells her that all he needs is one night but she doesn't know that he plans to keep her with him his entire life. It might be hard for him to convince her but Lincoln has never backed down from a challenge and he doesn't plan to now.
I love everything that Dani writes and this was no exception. It was so hot that I actually cried a little at the amazingness. I do not know how she does it but GAWD her heroes are legit BF material. She just gives you these awesome characters and you can't help but fall in love. I have heart eyes for Lincoln. GOD THIS WAS GOOD!!! ~Sonal

Title: Just Until Morning

Genre: Contemporary Romance
Rating: 4/5
Just Until Morning was one quick sexy, hot and steamy read that definitely managed to ruffle a few of my feathers if you get what I'm saying😉.
When Holli stepped into Lincoln's territory that was it he knew he had to have her and when a situation occurred he made his move, what started with a bet soon became so much more and what was initially supposed to have been one night ended up being the start of one hot, passionate affair.
I do like a good insta-love story but only if it's done right and fortunately for me this was one of the ones that was indeed done to perfection. Lincoln was one extremely hot and sexy alpha who was all gruff and growly yet incredibly sweet towards the woman he'd claimed as his own, Holli was an incredibly sweet an likeable character vulnerable yet sassy at the same time and it was nice to see her get her very own HEA.
I can't believe that this was my first book by Ms Wyatt, I'm definitely going to have a look at her other books to see what I've been missing out on, I loved her style of writing she reminded me of Joanna Blake and Jenika Snow, two authors whose work I enjoy reading.

Sweet story! Holli and Lincoln are opposites but when they get together they just fit. It's a short story so without giving too much away, Holli wants to get out and be something but her roommate's boyfriend gets her into poker room but with luck not being on her side she meets the owner Lincoln. From the start Lincoln wants her and when he sees that she is loosing he offers her something she can't say no to. a couple of ups and downs but in the end, we do get our happy ending we love.

Holli I loved your sass and how you thought you wouldn't fall for him. You cared too much and let people take advantage of you. Lincoln you dirty, hot alpha. Way to make her a willing partner.
Cheers to Insta-Love!

I was pulled right into this story. The story has laughs, steam, and heartbreak.
This is Holli and Lincoln’s story. Lincoln has an empire of high stakes poker rooms. He has everything he ever wanted that is until he catches a glimpse of Holli. Holli needs one big win before she can take back her life. But what happens when that win turns into a loss. Can Holli settle a debt with one night? Or will they both want more in the morning?
I felt I could connect with the characters and the story was a great read.
I recommend this book.

Dani Wyatt's Just Until Morning is a super steamy, an older man/younger woman, love-at-first-sight novella. Set in the high stakes world of back room poker, this virgin must decide if she will bet her future on this hardened gambler when antes up their game.

his is the story of Holli and Lincoln. They meet during a night of high stakes gambling and end up gambling on their love.
Holli wants to finish her college career and then move on with her life. In order to do this she must win big to fund the rest of her career. She sees a new world for herself in a positive direction and cannot wait to take it. Lincoln finds himself in needs of a change in his life after years of living the same old drama. The night that Holli shows up for their game his life is changed forever, he sees her and knows that she is his and this night is the beginning of their future. Lincoln is an older man (by 18 years) and knows what he wants, the typical alpha male.
The dialogue was great and so funny at times. I really felt their connection. It was everything that a Dani Wyatt story is: sweet and sexy. There was no cheating, or other people involved, the story was full of push and pull and the story line was steamy. Another great story from this author and a great way to spend some time; I will say that I found thisstory to be sweeter than hot sexy. I received an ARC and am leaving a voluntary review.

Hot, hot, hot, hot.....did I mention that this book was hot....uh, totally meant too *winks*. These two had so much chemistry they could have loaned some to other couples, yup it was just like that.
Holli shows up at one of the big card games that Lincoln host. She's a bit of a card shark, which I freaking love, she walks in there confident and with a whole lot of sass, which I also love. She has to be spotted about 5 grand, but then ends up losing all of it to these 3 guys that work together against her at the table. Lincoln tells her he has a deal for her and the "negotiate". She says no sex, but of course I already talked about their chemistry.....so, you know, kind of inevitable....just sayin.
Absolutely loved this story, as with all Dani Wyatt books, you get a tad bit more than a normal storyline. There was a great little twist in it and I really liked both of the characters. There was a an age difference with them, but I thought they fit together perfectly. And we get an epilogue, which I love. Probably one of my favorite Dani Wyatt books....damn, may have said that before, but she keeps writing what I love.

Holli is over her head, but is trying her best to play a man's game - Poker. Her mojo is off and she loses big time. Not to worry, she'll ask for more money and hopefully, come out on top. But the guy in the orange tie is the one throwing off her mojo. He keeps watching her. What's his game?
Lincoln - the moment I saw her, she was MINE. Not anyone else's but mine. MINE! I'll have her, she'll come willingly to me and we will be together. He makes Holli an offer. He'll overlook her debt in exchange for information and an orgasm. Her orgasm. How's a girl to refuse that offer??
This is a quick, dirty book that will have you wondering what's going to happen next. Do Holli and Lincoln end up together or will fate drive them apart? Dani Wyatt creates amazing characters who are complex, yet very realistic. Another great read!!

Just Until Morning by Dani Wyatt is full of fun, action, sexy times and witty banter between Lincoln and Holli! Their connection was instantaneous; their chemistry was immediate and intense. This story has a bit of a different twist to the story but just as good with the insta-love angle. This doesn’t have a Dd/lg storyline but what it does have is just as good and just as hot as her other stories. Lincoln is one possessive alpha while Holli is innocent and sassy. These two heat up the pages of my kindle and I loved how they came together so perfectly. You have to read to find out how the end…I adore Ms. Wyatt’s writing style and cannot wait for her next book.

5 Stars!
Dani Wyatt is absolutely amazing. I'm so glad I stumbled upon her books a few months ago. Her words are sweet, her plots are easy, and her characters are swoony. The books she writes are safe, sexy, sweet, steamy, and all kinds of right in the best ways.
Just Until Morning was a short novella that packed a serious punch. I laughed, swooned, smiled, giggled, and fell head over heels in love with Lincoln and Holli's journey. These two had magnetic chemistry and undeniable sparks. I got lost between the pages... and regret nothing.
This is one of those chances... take the leap, you won't regret it.... I promise.
I highly recommend this book.

I've liked most of Dani's other books but for some reason I couldn't connect with these characters. For me there was too much emphasis on how she wasn't trading sex for her debt, but that's exactly what it felt like as I read it. It won't stop me from reading any of her new books tho. This one just wasn't for me.

Poker Faces Fall Once You Meet “The One”
Lincoln is planning to move beyond the grueling life of a poker hustler… except he spots the brazen performance of Holli, and his heart cracks open. His character isn’t rich without consequence- he’s grizzled, he’s weary, and he knows it will require major life changes to stay sustainable.
Holli is a little bit more difficult to figure out. In the context of the story, she’s both hardened and naïve, in almost equal measure. Together, they are determination and avoidance, hopeful belief and cynicism. Of course there’s steam, and an HEA. And a message of “don’t give up.”

It's ok
I have never put three stars on Ms. Wyatt's books but I have to now. The last few books it's all about sex and nothing more. Her earlier books are great but now it's Like it's just about making short stories for money anymore. Ms. Wyatt used to be one of my top 10 author's but with every book now it's just about sex and nothing more. I miss the old writing's of Ms. Wyatt. Please bring her back. I miss the full length books complete with drama and romance and sex and the connection with the couples.

This was a good book. Nothing was wrong with it and the writing was great. The only issue I really had was with the insta-love. And when I say insta-love I mean right when he looks at her and she says her name he knows she was meant to be his insta-love. This is a total personal opinion. I never was a big fan of those and I didn't realize going in that this would be that type of book.
The sex was super hot though! I would definitely recommend this book to other people that have no issues with people falling in love at first glance and short books.

Unclear....
I don’t get the plot of this book except the sex. That’s what’s prominent. I don’t understand the job, live, or the makeup of the hero. Same as the heroine. What was her job, (hustling?). Why was she living in that city? It is all a mumble jumble and chaotic plot. Period.

Fantastic Read
This story is really cute. I love from the minute he see her to the end. The only thing I wish was in the epilogue finding out that one character got what was coming to him, but that doesn’t take away from the story. The writing and flow of this book is done well. I absolutely recommend this book.

Hello and Lincoln
Hello gets in over her head in a poker game. She gets played at the table and loses more than she's good for. Lincoln is a pro and runs the games. He has a sure plan to assist her in paying up. Of course, sex is involved. That was the best part of the story.
