 Blurb/Summary:

For 100 Days she deceived him. For 100 Nights, he demanded her complete surrender. Now, after all of the secrets and lies and heartbreak, they'll have to decide if their love is strong enough to try again...For 100 Reasons.

Billionaire Dominic Baine stepped into Avery Ross's life when it was at its lowest. Obsessed with the beautiful, struggling artist, Nick was determined to have her. What began as a scorching seduction soon burned out of control, exploding into a white-hot passion neither of them could deny.

Yet Nick and Avery are two damaged people, both haunted by dark secrets with the power to destroy them. And for Nick, the ugly past that shaped him cannot compare to the unforgivable deception that drives Avery from his arms, from his life. Now the man accustomed to having everything he desires must find a way to redeem himself to the only woman he has ever loved.

Avery Ross has known heartbreak. She has known betrayal and loss, but nothing like the pain that loving Dominic Baine has brought into her life. Reeling from the aftermath of his devastating revelation, instead of allowing despair to break her, she builds herself into something stronger--the fearless woman and gifted artist that Nick's passion has taught her to be. Yet her heart is in pieces, and despite everything she has, the one thing she needs is the man whose possessive desires and consuming love holds the power to either save them both or shatter her forever. . . .

Review:

You don’t need 100 reasons to read the finale in this series.  The plot thickens, but keeps up the tempo from the other two books.  More secrets are revealed leaving both Dominic and Avery raw.  For 100 Reasons comes full circle for these characters giving readers a good overview of how they will handle their future problems.  There were some surprising developments that kept me reading for the answers.

Both Dominic and Avery felt more developed in this book, maybe because they started telling the truth and not just what they wanted to reveal to one another.  Real life issues came to light during their journey and took precedence making them seem more authentic.

For 100 Reasons was a very satisfying conclusion to the series.  I would recommend starting at the beginning to experience their whole journey together.  You’ll have to read the book to see how Dominic and Avery end up.  Based on how they handled their issues together readers can imagine a happily-ever-after future.

 Blurb/Summary:

Avery Ross is living a dream. After struggling all of her life to make ends meet, a chance meeting with a powerful, darkly handsome man has catapulted her into a dazzling new world of penthouse luxury, elegant parties, and a wild, consuming passion with her billionaire lover, Dominic Baine. Nothing is out of his reach in business or in pleasure, yet the only woman he wants is her. Nick sweeps her to sensual heights she has never dared explore, commanding her body the same way he commands her heart. Yet Avery knows the fantasy she's living cannot last.

With dark secrets and a dangerous enemy haunting her past, Avery must find a way to trust Nick with the truth before it destroys everything they share. But Nick is harboring secrets of his own as well. And when they come to light, Avery will be forced to decide if the love she feels for Nick is strong enough to endure a betrayal she may never be able to forgive.

** This book ends in a cliffhanger. A big one. But you won't be left dangling for long -- the next book in the trilogy, FOR 100 REASONS releases this spring! **

Review:

Avery Ross and Dominic Baine kept me glued to the pages.  For 100 Nights is an Erotic Fiction story so if lots of intimate and detailed scenes turn you off then this is not for you.  If intimate and detailed scenes don’t bother you then you will enjoy the scenes and the story wrapped around them.

For 100 Nights is the continuation of For 100 Days and starts up where that story left off.  You don’t necessarily have to read the first book, but you will be missing some of the story that forms the relationship for Avery and Dominic.  Lara Adrian did a nice job of drawing the reader into this story and recapping what happened in the first book in subtle ways that don’t interfere with the progression of the storyline.

The plot has a nice steady pace and the characters that readers fell in love with in the first book are all present in the second.  More secrets are revealed in For 100 Nights.  The main characters definitely lack communications skills which could stem from the fact that neither have had any healthy relationships in the past.  They seemed to be working through them and then the ending took me by surprise.  Readers are left with a cliff-hanger ending.  However, the ending is suspenseful enough that it won’t make you insane but bring you back for more.

If you are following the 100 Series then you can’t miss this book!

Blurb/Summary:


Struggling artist Avery Ross is barely scraping by. Bartending at a trendy New York City restaurant for an overbearing boss and two weeks away from losing her apartment to a condo developer, she's desperate for a break. So when she's offered a temporary housesitting job, she takes it. 

Living at one of the poshest addresses in Manhattan is like entering a new world--one that catapults her into the orbit of billionaire Dominic Baine, the darkly handsome, arrogantly alpha resident of the building's penthouse. What begins as a powerful attraction soon explodes into a white-hot passion neither can deny.

Yet as scorching as their need for each other is, Avery doesn't expect Nick's interest in her to last. Nor does she dare to dream that the desire she feels for this scarred, emotionally remote man could deepen into something real. For Avery has secrets of her own--and a past that could destroy her . . . and shatter everything she and Nick share.

Review:

Lara Adrian’s For 100 Days is a fabulous kick off book in the 100 Series.  Avery Ross will grab your heartstrings with her down-and-out luck.  The journey that awaits her will have you rooting for a happily-ever-after ending.  The story is filled with mystery and suspense as Avery’s past comes out in pieces, keeping the reader glued to the pages.

Avery’s luck starts an upward trend and seems almost too good to be true.  Dominic “Nick” Baine storms into Avery’s life and turns it upside down.  Nick shows Avery what she’s missing by not taking some risks.  Billionaire Nick Baine brings excitement into Avery’s life.  Nick can’t get enough of Avery in and out of the bedroom and on every surface they encounter!  Their love making is hot, intense, and has elements of BDSM. 

Even though Avery and Nick set the pages on fire, there are issues holding each of them back from committing fully to their relationship.  By the end of the book the reader is granted glimpses into their issues and the next book is set into motion.  

For 100 Days has an ongoing plot that moves forward at a steady pace and will be continued into the next book.  The characters are engaging, mysterious, and appeal to the readers emotions.  Don’t miss out on Avery and Nick’s debut adventure.
