Rate this book
Rock hard once again with Zoey Derrick’s sizzling hot rock & roll series!

The story picks up as 69 Bottles continues their tour, riding a surge of success thanks to an impromptu duet between Talon and Addison.

It’s a crazy turn of life for Addison Beltrand, who’s always lived to work and worked to live. Now, everything is shifted upside down—and that’s not a bad thing. Stepping on the 69 Bottles tour bus has banished the heartache of her past, and feels like a rocking new beginning.

Talon Carver and Kyle Black couldn’t agree more. The band’s lead singer and manager are falling hard for the beautiful rock chick, and will do anything to keep her in their bed—and between their bodies—forever.

The trio’s blissful bubble is popped by a danger nobody has anticipated. The band’s security team, always watchful for fan attacks on the members, isn’t prepared for what happens to Addison during this leg of the tour. Will Kyle and Talon be able to help save Addison? Or will her fear force her to pack her bags and return to LA?

Everything hinges on her decision…

Two men. One woman. A rock band. A tour bus. One Wild Ride…

Absolute Smutty Perfection!
This book will leave you smiling and satisfied....
Am I honestly ready to admit that I'm falling in love with these two very overwhelming, sexy, god like men? Yes I think I am.
...Me too, Addison, me too.

I'm so enamored with this series!

Such a lovely combination of sweet romance, laughter, awesome dialogue, rock star antics, and of course... panty-melting Erotica.

There's no sophomore slump with this series. Craving Talon picks up right where the last book left off and continues the story of Addison, Talon, and Kyle. I know we're only two books into this series, but I've officially added it to my Favorite Romance Series Bookshelf.

In my review of Claiming Addison (69 Bottles, Book #1) I professed my love for so many of the elements which make this a stand-out story. I don't want to be redundant, but let's do a quick recap, shall we?

1. I love a good MMF Romance, and this one is phenomenal.
2. The combination of emotion and humor keep this story light and fun.
3. The lead female MC, Addison is a wonderfully strong character.
4. The split POVs provide insight into everyone's experiences.
5. The dialog in this series is absolutely extraordinary. Smart, funny, fast-paced, and a joy to read.

I watch as they both smile. "Well, then let's go so you can eat," Kyle says with a smirk. "Unless of course you prefer a liquid diet."
[...]
"Oh, for the love of my vagina, you two are too much sometimes," I tease, dropping my skirt and their jaws drop. "Ha! Three can play at this game."
MMF Romances appeal to me because they have a certain kind of angst involved in the relationship department. They have to be well-written or everything falls apart. It's easy to write a spicy threesome, but it takes talent to write an engaging (and at least mildly believable) Romance between three characters.

The reader has to LIKE all three of the parties involved. If any of the three MCs rub the reader the wrong way, we will immediately start hoping that the trio turns into a happy duo.

There are so many pieces of information which must come together to satisfy the reader's desire to know that this (yes, I know it's fictional) relationship, however uncommon, is built to last.

That's a lot of suspension of disbelief. It is hard enough to accomplish a believable love story between two parties...
But this is about THREE.
Three personalities...
Three back-stories...
One relationship...
And, yes, one bed...

Zoey Derrick, in her infinite awesomeness, saw this challenge and said (I assume) "Not only am I gonna write an amazing MMF Romance, I'm going to throw in a curve ball just to make sure everyone knows how awesome I am!"

Are you ready for this?
Double Gay-For-You.



That's right, folks, Talon and Kyle had their bisexual leanings before hooking up with each other (and Addison) but they never acted on them. This means that BOTH men are navigating brand new emotional and sexual situations.

The fact that all three characters are a little off-balance with this relationship is yet another strength in a long list of reasons I'm loving this series.

Oftentimes an MMF Romance will feature an established couple who bring a third into the fold.

I think it's sweet that all three characters are finding their way together.

Addison Beltrand
"You're like air and blood, water and food. Everything I need in my life to survive. You're my lovers and my friends, and I can't do any of this without either one of you.
Addison had the majority of the POV in this book, and I still adore her character. She's everyting I look for in a strong, smart, and funny female MC...

Geez, is there room for a fourth in this relationship?

Her job as the band's Public Relations agent is taking a bit of a backseat to all the changes in her life.

In the last few weeks she set off on a nationwide tour,
Hooked up with the band's manager and lead singer (at the same time),
She was thrust into the spotlight with an impromptu duet,
and suddenly she's an overnight superstar.

Her boss, Cami, is trying to sign her to a record deal,
She is getting her first taste of celebrity,
And her boys just want to keep her in bed...

Talon Carver
Talon learned that he was capable of loving me and he does it very well. He's rough. He's gentile. He's strong and driven. No matter how many times I have him, how long I get to keep him; this craving will never go away.
Talon is the front-man and lead singer for 69 Bottles, and he is on top of the world.

He's on a nation-wide tour, his band just got their first #1 hit, and every moment off stage is spent with Kyle and Addison. Talon isn't accustomed to being surrounded by so much love, and he's determined to soak up every moment of it.

No regrets.
No turning back.

In the last book, Kyle and Talon set their sights on seducing Addison; in this book, the boys are spending more time exploring each other...

Kyle Black
Kyle is my lover. Strong, caring and passionate. Always desperate to find new ways to make me happy, both in and out of the bedroom. He's strong and independent, but like me, he has a craving for Talon that only Talon can satisfy.
Kyle is definitely the calming force in this relationship. He played peacekeeper more than once, and it's understandable how he could easily take on that role - as the band's manager, he's used to keeping everyone in order.

He and Talon have known each other for years, and sliding into a romantic relationship had fewer hiccups than one might expect. It helps that they're wildly attracted to each other and are eager to experiment...

Oh the experimentation, people!

description

I have no idea how this book managed to be even hotter than the last book...

We're talking all kinds of toys, accessories, combinations of MMF, the boys even had some time to themselves...

Which reminds me!
I have one single complaint about this book:
I distinctly remember telling the author that buying a copy of this book should come with a complimentary change of panties... Or at least spare batteries... Alas, there are no book-panty-battery combo packs available. *sigh* I'm a little disappointed ;)

On the non-smutty side of things, I was thrilled that Kyle and Addison finally had a chance to sit down and talk about their shared pasts - Addison's fiancé, who died years ago, was Kyle's brother... Addison and Kyle had never met before going on tour together, but it was definitely a topic which needed to be discussed.

I can barely contain my excitement as I wait for the next book.

It's been a long time since I've been so excited about a series!

4 only-cause-of-the-sex stars

Ok, I have an issuse with this books's story, i had it with the first book too, I can't help it, these books are like bipolar or smth - on one side the story, the plot is so naive and almost childish bordering with fairytale, characters are acting below their age having tantrums and stuff - and on the other side there are these sex scenes that the porn industry wouldn't be ashamed of. They are detailed and specific and very, very consuming and hot and during the play out of these scenes the characters are on the same level of maturity.

so, I am in a huge dilemma here, but the other side prevailed...

so fuck it, call me shallow but I stand tall and proud!

There were some fuckin' smokin' threesome sex scenes!!!




since there's no actual ending, I have to read book 3...

BUT what I missed to point out, I am actually interested in the drummer Dex...so he's in book 4
fuck, maybe I'll just jump to that...LOL

~*~ 4.5 STARS ~*~

CRAVING TALON by Zoey Derrick has everything you would want in another addition to a series, MORE. Book 2 of the 69 Bottles series has everything CLAIMING ADDISON had, but so much more. More HOT sex, more Rock & Roll, more raw emotions, more HOT sex, more barriers broken, more HOT sex, more danger, more suspense, more angst, more HOT sex, just MORE of everything. Oh...and did I mention it had more HOT sex? And I'm not talking just your average sexscapade here. This is full on panty-melting, can't turn away, OMG, I need a cold shower STAT, kind of sex! This book is as erotic as they come, so for that reason, and that reason only, you should run along and GET. THIS. BOOK. NOW.

I know I've talked a lot about the sex in this book, but believe me when I say, this book has heart as well. In CRAVING TALON, we dive deeper into the minds and the pasts of these three characters we have grown to love. There is pain and suffering with all parties involved, that is preventing them from going all in, in this relationship. Put that on top of the changes going on with Addison's career, and the danger that her fame is bringing about, you have the perfect recipe for a sexy, suspenseful, and raw ROCK STAR ROMANCE.

I've read a lot of menage romances, and I gotta tell you, that Addison, Kyle, and Talon are one of my favorites. The relationship, the bond that they share is passionate, strong, and believable, with more walls being broken down with every chapter, it just demonstrates how much love they have for one another. You just know that they are going to make it. No matter what Ms. Derrick throws in to the story, I know their relationship will prevail. Zoey wouldn't want anything less for her fans.

This author has created something special with this series. I've getting more and more invested with each passing page. Zoey Derrick, you naughty, raunchy, smutty woman you. Thank you for bringing these amazing characters into the romance world. You ROCK woman!

Don't read this in public!
Warning! Extreme blushing may occur while reading this book. You do not want the waitress, airline attendant, or co-worker to inquire about your health or call 911, so be careful. Trust me, every possible scenario you can imagine between 3 people can most likely be found in the pages of this book. If there was anything left out, I'm sure it will be included in the next installment in the 69 Bottles series. Yes, it is very steamy, but it's also more than that. The relationship between Talon, Addison, and Kyle is very emotional too. They each have different qualities that the others need whether it be nurturing, organization, control, submission, compromise, hard, soft, sweet, or bossy. The trio are getting to know each other better, spending time alone, and in pairs as they share their feelings and fears. In the midst of the sensation caused by Addison's recognition as a singer and her performances with the band, a threat is detected. Addison is already feeling smothered, or sandwiched (wink-wink), by the excessive protectiveness from her men. But now it takes on an even more extreme level as they, along with their security detail become hyper alert after 'the incident'. As they are being thrown even more into the public eye they must decide how they are gonna handle their public interaction and how much they are willing to share with others. The decision about what to tell her mother is taken out of Addison's hands when she guesses, telling her daughter that she's high maintenance and that she needs two men to take care of her. Can they overcome the demands of their fans, the media that is constantly invading their privacy, and their own insecurities and suspicions? Stay tuned for the answer to that question and more as the series continues with Redeeming Kyle, and then we move on to Taming Dex.

Holy Hotness with a side of wet panties!!!!! Zoey Derrick has done it again! The blazing inferno known as the threesome consisting of Talon, Kyle and Addison only got hotter and grew closer during this second book of the series. I loved this one just as much, if not more than the first.
The emotional growth in their relationship was more in the spotlight of this book, especially between Kyle and Talon. I can't really say too much about the book without giving away anything, but seeing Talon's walls slowly break down was my favorite part of this story. There is a closeness between Kyle and Talon that we see develop over the course of the story that wasn't there in the first book.
There is an event that makes them all come to realize just how much they really love one another, and as sad I was that it takes something terrible to make them realize it I know that's just the y it is sometimes. When everything is smooth and easy we take our relationships for granted. It's not until we're faced with the possibility of losing them that we become fully aware of their significance.
Don't worry, although the emotions do run deep there is still plenty of Zoey's trademark passionate menage scenes. The phrase #OneHandedReading didn't come out of nowhere for nothing!
Again, we are left at the end with one heck of a cliffhanger, so be prepared. This one is even worse than the last one. I don't know how I'm going to make it the next few weeks before Redeeming Kyle is released! Be sure and read the teaser chapter for it at the end of Craving Talon!

10 Fabulous Amazing Stars but 5 on here

This book was given to me for my honest review by the author

Masks are an interesting thing. Sure we all wear them at specialty parties like Halloween, New Years, and theme parties but what happens in our everyday lives has to be the most interesting of masks of them all. On Social media sites as in everyday life we can be who ever we want to be and no one asks questions to get to know someone. The masks that we wear in our everyday life are a façade of who we really are deep within ourselves but the question that remains is why? Is being our normal self that bad? Has the world come to this that we can’t see ourselves as the person we were born to be? The answer lies within each of us.

This is the 2nd book in the 69 Bottles Series the first is Claiming Addison and has to be read 1st

Talon, Kyle and Addison return in this continuing journey to finding their centering hearts with each other. As much as Talon and Kyle’s hearts become one with Addison twists and turns come about that leave major conflicts within each of their hearts. Can these two hunky men put their brains behind them and allow their hearts to soar even with the twists that come about? Can they forgive themselves even when neither is to blame? Will Talon and Kyle’s relationship soar to new heights and erotic moments with and without Addison or is Addison the binding heart? Is forever and a day on the horizon for this amazing trio inside the bedroom and outside? Or will the most erotic sex of this trio keep behind the hidden walls? Will Kyle take a step in a direction that has become new to his heart will he open up his heart and let it guide him to finding his forever within? Will Talon conqueror his fear of the unknown and allow his sacred heart to soar? Will Addison find her truest of hearts within these amazing men? This is their unique journey.

Craving is uniqueness it such a valid quality in all of as individuals but as in an authors writing a craving of desire can be much more than words on a page. The feelings that they possess when writing a story that is passionate in their true hearts but then again it could be a solidarity of themselves.

To the Author: You have taken me to new heights. You have brought laughter and tears, awe’s and “Oh No He Did Not” to my thoughts so many times I wanted to scream and just as I knew where this beloved trio was headed you threw in yet another twist that made me wanting more. You brought forth a new revelation to readers and to many couples that will read your book and think we could have, should have and why didn’t we? This trio’s journey is fabulous and you have major kudos from me and your readers will surely enjoy this one of a kind read just as much as I have.

To the Readers: Sit back, get your screaming towel out, your comfy chair and your favorite snacks. Turn off your cell phones and put the do not disturb sign on the door. Now sit back and enjoy this journey.

Did I mention it is not over yet? Did I mention the sex is mind blowing, volcanic and hotter than the coals in your barbeque?

Happy Reading

If you’ve read my review of the first 69 Bottles installment, Claiming Addison, you know I was hooked from the start with this series.  Craving Talon picks up right where it left off and doesn’t let up.  Addison is coming to terms with her life on a tour bus and her newly blossoming romance with two hot men, lead singer, Talon, and band manager, Kyle.  There two are also hot for each other in a big way, though it’s completely new territory for both of them.  Addison has fought past heartache to let these two into her heart, but they still have a lot of barriers to get by to make this threesome a functional reality.  Some are physical and some are psychological.  Addison has an offer on the table to push her career past PR and into performance, a lifelong dream, but little does she know that danger lurks around the corner, threatening her life and happiness.

I’d heard rumors that Craving Talon would be hotter than the first book and I was not disappointed!  The sex is open, no holds barred, in every combination.  There’s more than just an M/F/M sandwich in these pages.   We get alone time with our two hot men and get to watch as they take their relationship to a new level, emotionally and physically. We’re pushed full force into what makes a true M/M/F love story work.  The conflicting and complicated emotions swirl around, threatening to destroy everything they’ve been working towards.  Once again, Addison is real, down to earth and hysterically funny.  There’s a whole dialog about her beautiful breast implants (!) Need I say more!  The dialog is fresh and flows well.  Kyle and Talon play off of each other perfectly.  Addison is their queen, but their interactions and attraction isn’t diminished by her presence, only heightened.

I definitely recommend this be read after Claiming Addison, as you really need the first book to set the mood for what’s to come in Craving Talon.  Zoey Derrick has gotten me to read and love rocker romance, which is a genre I’d been avoiding for a long time.  I was scared of the clichés and rocker lifestyle/attitudes, but these steer clear of them, instead bringing you characters with real emotion and very little façade.  And the sex is as smokin’ hot as it gets.  I’ll be diving in to her backlist as I wait for the next installment ;)

Wow!

I just cannot get enough of this series! There are just not enough words in my vocabulary to explain how much I absolutely love this trio!

This books picks up right where Claiming Addison finished and although I was worried that it would fall short because I loved Addison so much I had absolutely no reason to worry.

Yet again Zoey has given us a story that is not only melt your kindle in your hands hot, but a beautiful love story that keeps you begging for more.
The writing was flawless and flowed effortlessly and will keep you completely engrossed from the start through to the end. This was yet again another read in one sitting story for me.

I cannot wait for the next installment in this series!

After reading Claiming Addison, I could not wait to start Craving Talon and let me say Zoey Derrick has done it again. This story is super hot. It picks up right where Claiming Addison left off.
We get a front row seat to this threesome relationship. We watch it grow, mature, and blossom into something incredible.. Yes this book is dangerously erotic. The sex scenes will leave you wiping the drool off your chin, crossing your legs and twitching in your seat. But it is so much more than that. We get to see their troubles, devotion, commitment, their love they all share. It is so well written, you just get sucked into it and you don't want it to end..

Craving Talon is the second book in the 69 bottles series and picks off where Claiming Addison left off and I tell you, it was better and hotter. Not sure how Ms Derrick did it - but did it she did. So...if you haven't yet read the first book, heed the author's warning and do so before reading this one.

In this book, the honeymoon period between Zoey, Talon, and Kyle seems to be over as their relationship seems to be tested by outside forces, as well as inner conflicts. Will it survive or will it end up being each person for themselves?

This book gave me the feels - some pleasant and some not-so-pleasant. There was a particular scene that made me want to stop reading it and only because I was so damn mad at the character. Said person demonstrated the real meaning of "overreacting" to a T. I had to contact the author and my friend (who had read the book) to complain and they both assured me it would get better. And, true to their words, it did get better and it led up to some of my favorite scenes of the series so far. So yeah...this book will make you feel things and if you're the sort of person who doesn't like this, don't bother. But...if you don't mind this, be prepared to have your emotions wrung out.

I say this book was better than the first because we get to see all three characters grow in themselves - as well as in the relationship. We get to see that all relationships have to endure growing pains and it's what we do when this happens that determines the success of the relationship. I loved that Ms Derrick didn't sugarcoat their problems or sweep it under the (tour) bus, he he. I also loved that Zoey, Talon, and Kyle recognized the importance of communication and its great role in preserving relationships - especially one as unconventional as theirs.

This was yet another great read by Ms Derrick and I most definitely can't wait to read the conclusion of the series.

Ms Derrick watch out for your twitter feed 'cos I'll be bombarding the hell out of it while reading Redeeming Kyle ;)

Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian I Dig Good Books.


OH. MY.DAYS.


Seriously, I'm stunned. A mahooosive book hangover this morning and I had to buy books to get over it!

This is Book 2, and you must, I mean MUST read Claiming Addison first. It is essential for you to understand these three better in their relationship and in their work life.

Following on IMMEDIATELY from book 1, its almost like reading a much longer book, rather than 2 shorter ones although they are 300 odd pages apiece, it didn't feel like that when reading.

Talon, Kyle and Addison continue to grow and develop bond, physically (WHOA there!!) and emotionally. I loved watching them grow, not just between Addison and the two guys, but between Kyle and Talon as well.

The physical relationship continued to burn up my kindle, and me too. Although its so freaking hot and very VERY well written, the emotions all come across too. Its so beautifully written!

As well as their growing personal relationship, there is Addison's growing singing career, an attack and a stalker, more bodyguards and a shed load of money to spend!

OH!!

And an issue with some medication. Thats where this one ends, right there, and my poor partner had his ear drum blown out for my squealing, and the kindle only survived because it was plugged in. My poor cat, Jezzie, who was sitting on my knee at the time, ended up clear across the room. And no, I didn't throw her, she jumped when I squealed!

Book one wasn't so much of a hangover, but this one is. I didn't see it coming, I had 9 minutes left in the bloody book! Be warned.

Now, I just need to say this. I love Nicole Edwards and her menáge books but Zoey Derrick is coming into her own, and will, I fully believe, give Edwards a run for her money. You just watch if she doesn't.

Book 3 is ut soon, and I hope to be reading that too.

5 stars, with 64 scattered around.

MY REVIEW
I cannot tell you how much i am loving this series it is just brilliant!
I devoured this book in one sitting.
This series is and fantastic mix of erotica, humor, sweet romance, kick ass dialogue, rock star hotness, and awesome take no shit heroine.
I love M/M/F stories, it takes a great writer to pull it off too, you have to fall for each of the three main characters to really feel the connection and the story, so let me tell you Zoey has the talent to write an engaging and captivating book that pulls you into the pages.

Craving Talon picks up right where the last book left off and we jump right back into the interesting lives of Talon, Kyle and Addison.
Addi, Talon and Kyle's relationship is progressing and they come up against some bumps in the road as Zoey has thrown in a awesome twist that not only are these three navigating a relationship as a trio but BOTH men are navigating brand new emotional and sexual situations, as they discover they have not only feeling and attractions for Addi but for each other too.
I think it's sweet that all three characters are finding their way together, the love story that is developing between these three is beautiful.

Throw that all together with the new situations they all face with Addi's new found celebrity, let me tell you it makes for the most amazing story to get lost in for a few hours.
Most of this story is told from Addison's POV but i want some more Talon and kyle but im just greedy, lol.
I can't wait to see where Zoey takes these great characters in the next book.
This story is smart, funny, fast-paced, and a joy to read, it left me wanting more more more please.

Title: CRAVING TALON
Series: 69 Bottles #2
Category /Genre: Erotic, Contemporary Romance, M/M/F
Recommended for: 18+ due to sexual content
Received from: Zoey Derrick (in exchange for an honest review)
Grammar/editing: ungraded – book received as an unedited ARC / errors excused

This is the second book in the 69 Bottles series. They do need to be read in order, but there are no cliff-hangers.

Addie and the boys of 69 Bottles are riding high on the news of the band’s successes following the impromptu duet between Addie and Talon on stage. Unfortunately, there is a downside to her unexpected fame. Will fears and insecurities come between her and her men? Will it cause her to run back to L.A. and the job she is used to using to hide from the world? Only Addie can decide.

Craving Talon picks up where Claiming Addison left off. There is even more hot, yummy, erotic sexcapades happening. There is also more heart, more emotion, and more love. It’s not easy for any of them to admit to the biggest emotion, but words aren’t as important as action. There is no shortage of action.

I am absolutely in love with everyone on this tour bus! I love this series! Zoey Derrick is brilliant! This is a page-turner. Plan to not put it down when you start (hubby can order a pizza for dinner).

My only warning: no prudes allowed. This is a ménage romance with two hot rockers and a sexy band manager. Don't bother to wear panties - they'll only melt off anyway!

Zoey Derrick continues her 69 Bottles tour in the second book, Craving Talon. The first book introduced us to the sexy trio of Talon, Addison, and Kyle and had me addicted in the first 10 pages. These characters will get into your system and have you either blushing or fanning your heated cheeks when they are behind closed doors. Craving Talon can’t be categorized as a M/F/M menage. No, you see Zoey Derrick steps outside the box in this story, hell she destroyed the box and I couldn’t be more happy about it. If you’re expecting the typical menage story of two sexy men with the pretty lady between them, well, you’re in for a surprise. Even with the extremely hot level of the sex in this book, it is all done in a tasteful and almost romantic way. There is such an emotional connection between Talon, Kyle, and Addison that the sex, while amazing, takes a back seat. It’s rare that I find a series with characters that stay with me long after I finish reading and 69 Bottles has done that and more. It’s not only the main characters, but the supporting characters, the other band members, that have me thinking of the story and where Zoey will take them all once the tour is over.

If you like sexy rockers, panty melting menages, with a creepy stalker thrown in for an added bonus, you won’t want to miss Craving Talon. If you haven’t read the first book in the series Claiming Addison, you have to read it first, but you’ll want to jump right into Craving Talon as soon as you’re done. I can’t wait to get my hands on the 3rd book in the series Redeeming Kyle.

5 Stars!

I love this series. I have a serious girl hard on for ménage romances when they are done right... and let me tell you, this series is done right. This book was a great continuation of the story and I am itching to get my hands on the next book. This series is full of steam, naughty rockers, filthy mouth bad boys, tons of sexual tension, and an explosive relationship that is scorching between the sheets. This book had me laughing so hard at times I was literally crying.

This is the next part of Addison, Kyle, and Talon's story. As Addison continues the tour with 69 Bottles, the chemistry between her, Talon and Kyle only gets stronger. And with Addison about to embark on a new career path in the show business world, it is going to take her men to help guide her through the new territories. And as all three grow closer, insecurities and doubts creep in. Get ready for another sexy ride with 69 Bottles.

I love these three. They all have chemistry. I loved watching the relationship between Kyle and Talon grow. These two are in uncharted territory even though they had feelings before. Watching them unfold and accept what they feel was awesome. And when you throw Addison into the mix, look out for your kindle to burst into flames. And Addison.... I have a serious girl crush on her. I love how she handles her men and he take charge attitude.

And the secondary characters rock. I really love me some Dex and can't wait to see him tamed!

I highly recommend this book!

Yes. You might want to buy extra batteries before reading this book. I am so glad that I found this author. This is the second of Zoey Derrick's books I have read, and I plan to read many more. This series is one of the best MMF that I have read. I really like all three of the main characters. They are all three very strong individuals, but they blend so well together. Through this book, their relationship is continuing to build, as well as their sex scenes continue to be sizzling hot, hence the need for extra batteries. You have the rock star, manager and best friend, and a PR representative and budding star. Together, they are so good. I can't wait to read the next book.

This review is from: Craving Talon: 69 Bottles #2 (Kindle Edition)
This is the continuation of Addison, Talon and Kyle's story with more HOT SEX ( M/M/F,M/F/M, M/M, M/F), rock &roll with love and romance.The more time they spend together the more they have to and need to figure out about how a triad relationship works, with lots of emotions- love, fear, jealousy and some anger, not always directed at each other, but the outside issues that interfere(fans,her budding singing career-started by singing a duet with Talon, and a crazy stalker....) !Will they figure out how a triad relationship works outside the bedroom and in the public, can it? Can they overcome the issues and obstacles? Can they help Addison overcome her fears, or will she run and hide or worse yet, shut down?!? These characters are well developed and are very believable. The story is well written and an enjoyable quick read!! Lots of HOT MENAGE SEX!!! There was suspense,drama, adventure, and romance. This book is for mature readers due to content. Book # 1 Claiming Addison : 69 Bottles Did I forget HOT, HOT SEX needing many changes of panties!!! An honest review for an ARC from author. Thank you Zoey!!! Need book #3 Kyle's story.

I'll say this is 5 glorious panty dripping stars right now.......
Zoey has hit me hard again with this one! Forget putting your intimite things on because you will be taking them right back off as they will be soaked! Addison doesn't handle the changes to her security well not because it was not needed......... but because she was not informed or so she thought. She later realizes that yes she had been informed she just had been so distracted with other lovely things that she had not read her e-mail from her boss stating that they were sending a security team for her. What happens when Talon and Kyle realize that their relationship has taken a turn for the btter and have discussed what is off limits between them? Not only does it turn their girl on.....it turns them on........and once they accept it they quickly learn that the rest of the band approves and even says about time.... I did say leave your intimiates off and I mean it ...... cause man when Kyle and Talon start explorin ...... I wanted to watch!

Just as impressed with book 2....

I was introduced to this series after this book had already been released, so I had the good fortune to be able to finish book 1 and dive right into this installment.

This book picks up right where we left everyone with not a lot of recap, so I'd definitely suggest reading these in order. In just the short time that Addison, Kyle and Talon have known each other, they've developed some pretty strong feelings for one another. What happens in this section of their journey only builds on their relationship.

Again, this is the only series that I've ever read of this particular nature. And I am blown away by the fact that I'm enjoying this so much. The creativity, the passion, the storyline is all first rate and keeps this from being just your garden variety erotica with an extra man thrown into the mix. Even without the sex (though trust me, you'll be glad it's there) I'd still be interested in this plot and these characters.

Now to wait for book 3. Fortunately, it's only a couple of weeks away....

OMG I love Talon and Kyle swoon seriously I could read their hot scenes over and over again.

Book #2, we dig deeper into their relationship and learn more about Kyle and Talon - we get to meet Addison's mom and she gets a stalker...I get the purpose of the stalker but it felt really rushed. I didn't want to spend time on him but it happened very fast and was gone. I keep thinking it's going to come back, I guess I'll have read book 3 to find out.

I'm worried about the band getting annoyed with Addison's attention and I keep waiting for them to show it but so far they all just love her.

Addison grew a little more in this book - which I have to keep reminding myself is a good thing and that she's not perfect. I wish I could put my finger on it but I just don't love her the way I do the other characters. Maybe I see too much of myself in her...food for thought or my therapist.

Anyway, another hot book by Zoey Derrick - I CAN'T wait to start book 3, which will probably be in a couple hours. Thank you Zoey!!!

******OH.MY.FU@K'N.GOODNESS!!!! Where in the hell have you been Zoey Derrick?******

You know if I was a prude I would've been extremely offended by some of the sex scenes described in this book. Oh, how happy am I that I'm not!! Whew, I would have missed getting my mind blown!

Damn Zoey girl I applaud you on your writing skills and your storytelling and how you held me captive throughout these last 2 books. I'm so freaking happy that I just found this series even though it's old but I didn't have to wait months or years to complete it but get to enjoy the story in one sweep!

I can't really complain about anything concerning this book. It had the right ingredients to make it perfect and with that being said I still couldn't give it 5*. It probably deserves it, but I can't in good conscience give it one.

Was I stimulated? Yes
Was I captivated? Yes
Was I excited? Yes
Did I feel connected to these characters? Yes

hmmmm....

Was there anything so profound that it moved you? No

Overall rating:
4* ~ A Good Read

i need more!!

Hot, sexy, sweet, intense, those are words to describe this book but it really is so much more.

Craving Talon is the second part of a trilogy featuring 69 Bottles and their PR rep Addison.

YOU MUST READ CLAIMING ADDISON FIRST.

This is so much more than a story. It's a testament to how strong you can be when you have love in your life. Addison had so many issues in this book that I was afraid she was going to break but the love and support of her men and the band held her together and she survived. Relationships get tested while others blossom, lives change, enemies surface and memories are made in this phenomenal story of love, friendship, commitment, and trust. Amazing characters that I love reading about and have me rooting for them.

Can't wait to read the end!!

This book starts off were last book finished, the difference being the previous book was all about them getting to know each other, attraction and seriously hot sex. This book moves them on from attraction to having feelings for each other, which in my mind makes the sex even hotter!

Addison is being put in the limelight which is not easy for her, but with Talon and Kyle to help her she will be fine and if she gets stressed they have a great way of destressing her.... sex yes sex there is lots of it in this series, lots of variety too and its sizzling.

Its not all sex, relationships deepen, there's drama and love <3.

Out of the two men, I prefer Talon, I dont know why just do!

This is a great series, only for those that like alot of sex in a book!

looking forward to reading book 3.

Addison, Talon and Kyle are getting closer and the concerts are getting better with each show. There are things that happen that will break your heart and things that will make you smile. So Jump into the world of 69 Bottles and enjoy the ride. Zoey Derrick has a way of pulling you into the story from the beginning and keep you there until the end. I loved this one and need book 3 NOW!

Oh My, I'm not really sure there's anything to report here. There's really not a story here, if there is, I'm not getting it! What I am getting is a lot of this




The only thing that's obvious here is that Addison is in love with


I'm thinking...


Don't get me wrong, I think the sex is hot but where's the story at this point?
Because I'm getting...


I have to find out what happens now that I finished #2.

Holy hotness!!!!! Zoey does it again. Wow! The love story between these three is amazing. They are learning to accept their unconventional love. With this book the trio went through the highs and lows of leaning to deal with crazy fans. With the craziness the boys relize their love for Addie. Addie already knew she loved them, she was waiting on them to relize their love for her and one another. I want some more Talon and kyle. They are my new favorite book boyfriends. I want to be the middle of a Talon and Kyle sandwich. LOL, the sandwich reference is in the book. You will understand when you read it. Don't miss the awesome follow up to Claiming Addison! Can't wait to see where Zoey takes these great characters. Thank you Zoey for the wonderful book.

From the moment I finished Claiming Addison I wanted more! Craving Talon picks up right where the last book leaves off and gives us even more of this sexy threesome as they navigate their complex relationship. Like the first book, this one is super steamy and the sex scenes are literally some of the hottest I've ever read! But along with all the hot, hot mattress aerobics there is real love between these characters and it really shines through. Some of my favorite moments are the tender ones between the three characters. Once again I can't wait for more and look forward to reading Redeeming Kyle!!!
