This is a Steamy Christmas Romance Novella, and this is the second book in the Men of Rogues Hollow series. The romance in this book was very quick moving, and there was some very steamy moments in this book. This was a short and quick read, but I felt there was a storyline and character developed during this book even with it being short and with steamy times. I really enjoyed this book. I won a kindle edition of this book from a Goodreads Giveaway, but this is my own feelings about this book.

I want to thank Donna Kauffman, author and Goodreads First Reads Giveaway for the eBook Kindle copy of Exposed that I won in the Giveaway.
Delilah Hudson and Austin Morgan have on thing in common when they meet on Christmas Eve on a train stranded in a snowstorm, they are both professional photographers. They also have found professional success and a comfortable but rather lonely personal life.
It all changes as they surrender to the instant attraction they find in each other as the snowed in train sits on the track waiting for clearance to continue the journey north. Del leaves the fantasy and how great Austin has been instead of being brave enough to find out if it could go on to something else.
This could have been just a sex scene but the emotions were raw, honest and deep to make it much more with an artistic ending that made me smile.

Woah! I was not aware that this was a novella or 90% of it was sex scenes. This novella is about two photographers stranded on a train by a blizzard on Christmas Eve. Delilah and Austin formed a very quick romance after meeting each other. Although most of the novella was sex scenes, I thought the ending was pretty sweet. If you are up for some NSWF content and some romance, this is the perfect book for you.
Thank you to Goodreads giveaways and to Kensington books for giving me a free kindle copy for my honest review.

"Exposed" is a novella about two photographers, Del and Austin, trapped on a snowbound train at Christmas time. They both have careers and enjoy their solitude, or so they thought. Through some verbal innuendos and heightened attraction to one another, they take a nosedive into what could end up being the best one night stand of their lives. But will a few hours be enough of either of them?
A very sexy read, that takes off fast and explicitly to a very satisfying conclusion. I can't wait to read about Austin's brothers in the "Men of Rogues Hollow" series.

Sometimes I just really need a quick, sexy read and this book really hit the spot. It's a quick, insta-love kind of story with a TON of sexy time packed into a novella but it brought the best kind of heat!! The hero was a blend of cocky, alpha and romantic gentleman and the heroine was an independent, strong woman who knew what she wanted and went for it and together they made for a really great read.

Exposed
I received this book through a Goodreads giveaway and this is my voluntary and honest review. I had to push myself to finish this book. It was mostly about the two main characters ravaging each other more than their love story. I won't read any more books by this author, and I don't recommend it.

Exposed is basically a fantasy printed, about 2 strangers who meet on a snowbound train. For me, it wasn't so much a story but an involved sexy one night stand. If you are looking for a short sexy read I recommend Exposed. I received this book through a goodreads giveaway in exchange for an honest review.

A fast paced romance
This was a fast paced romance. I enjoyed the short story, but I have to admit it leaves me wanting to know more about the men of Rogues Hollow and the story of these brothers.

I have to start this review by admitting that I absolutely loved the pun that was in this title. Which I didn’t get until halfway through. Because it is called Exposed and features two photographers – exposed and cameras. It made me very, very happy. It also highlighted how exposed both of the leads felt in this interaction, but that goes down a whole other rabbit hold.
This kind of had Let it Snow vibes with the whole being stranded on a train in the snow. I kind of love these stories which give you a tiny little bottle in which interactions are forced. When it happens with snow, it feels kind of magical. Although, since I’ve only seen snow maybe twice in my life, it’s a bit hard to actually know if it is as romantic and magical as it reads…
Not only was this a fun novella and one that stands beautifully by itself, it also touches upon two other stories in this series. Firstly, there are a few mentions to the previous novella – Baby, It’s Cold Outside. And then, there’s hints towards what Tag’s story in Catch Me If You Can will be like. Both of which I loved. It’s always nice to have a vein of connection throughout stories which stand beautifully by themselves, but also work well together.
I loved the compromise at the end of this story. I am a strong believer in the idea that relationships are all about compromise. Whether they be romantic or platonic. So the fact that Austin and Delilah manage to find that compromise in their own version of happily ever after left me feeling very content. There’s nothing more that I hate than a story which features a couple in which one has had to give up everything to be with the other.
Finally, it was Austin’s final leap of faith and confidence in each other that made me really enjoy this novella. Those grand gestures that are always in media are just so damn cute and this one definitely gave me all of the happy feelings.
