Summary
Is it possible for a guy to turn on a switch and realize he’s been in love with a girl that’s been under his nose for over a decade？
Ashleigh Franklin can’t decide。
Ashleigh wants the fairy tale。 Ever since she was a kid， her best friend’s brother， Luke， has been her fantasy Prince Charming。 Now he’s trying to convince her that she’s the one he’s wanted all these years。 There’s no way it’s that easy to escape the friend zone。
Single after years living with a girlfriend， Luke has finally woken up。 What he’s been waiting for has been right under his nose for almost his entire life。 Can he persuade her that he’s serious and won’t break her heart？
A Wonder Woman costume， a bottle of tequila and a game of truth or dare between two close friends changes everything。

You date a girl for 3 years and you are surprised she wants to get married， really？ Didn't like Luke because the way he broke things off with ex-girlfriend， didn't like Ash because of literaly anything and everything she did。 That bitch killed her own happines at every turn。 Right now I am reading last chapter and that internal monolog （view spoiler）[when finding out she's pregnent （hide spoiler）] just made me lose what little respect I had for her as a character。 You date a girl for 3 years and you are surprised she wants to get married， really？ Didn't like Luke because the way he broke things off with ex-girlfriend， didn't like Ash because of literaly anything and everything she did。 That bitch killed her own happines at every turn。 Right now I am reading last chapter and that internal monolog （view spoiler）[when finding out she's pregnent （hide spoiler）] just made me lose what little respect I had for her as a character。 。。。more

Well I thought I might like the premise of this book than Parisian Nights。 But now I'm not sure coz I was flipping over pages which bored the hell out of me。 Although I liked the various steamy scenes of this Night Series， some conflict scenes seemed stretched out to make pages。 Perhaps if I read the first two books at same period with Indigo Nights before I may have a different assessment or maybe not who knows？ Well I thought I might like the premise of this book than Parisian Nights。 But now I'm not sure coz I was flipping over pages which bored the hell out of me。 Although I liked the various steamy scenes of this Night Series， some conflict scenes seemed stretched out to make pages。 Perhaps if I read the first two books at same period with Indigo Nights before I may have a different assessment or maybe not who knows？ 。。。more

You Can never go wrong with a Louise Bay novel and Promised Nights was all that plus Shane East。 Yum。 I love Louise Bay stories because they always center around a fab female lead and a swoony af hero。 This time the heroine wasn’t my favorite， but by god our hero， Luke， is all the things！ The romance and amazing writing was still there so I enjoyed it。 Shane East and Clare Corbett narrate and do a wonderful job。 I mean， you cannot go wrong with Shane East and Clare was a great as well。 My first You Can never go wrong with a Louise Bay novel and Promised Nights was all that plus Shane East。 Yum。 I love Louise Bay stories because they always center around a fab female lead and a swoony af hero。 This time the heroine wasn’t my favorite， but by god our hero， Luke， is all the things！ The romance and amazing writing was still there so I enjoyed it。 Shane East and Clare Corbett narrate and do a wonderful job。 I mean， you cannot go wrong with Shane East and Clare was a great as well。 My first audio from her and I hope I get to listen to more。 4 stars。 。。。more

Best Friend's Brother。Sister's Best Friend。However you look at it， Ashley and Luke are absolutely perfect for each other。 And as soon as they both realize it， the real fun begins。I don't know how familiar you are with Shane East， but holy moly this book is dirty and hearing his amazing voice whispering such naughty words in my ear。。。well， this book is a #onehandedread （if I were holding a physical book） if I've ever read/heard one。Super hot， fun， flirty， and one of those reads you just can't put Best Friend's Brother。Sister's Best Friend。However you look at it， Ashley and Luke are absolutely perfect for each other。 And as soon as they both realize it， the real fun begins。I don't know how familiar you are with Shane East， but holy moly this book is dirty and hearing his amazing voice whispering such naughty words in my ear。。。well， this book is a #onehandedread （if I were holding a physical book） if I've ever read/heard one。Super hot， fun， flirty， and one of those reads you just can't put down。 Promised Nights is exactly what you need。 。。。more

*AUDIOBOOK REVIEW*Narration: 5/5Characters: 3。5/5Story: 4。5/5Although I struggled with the heroine & found her annoying at times， overall I really enjoyed their love story！ Luke was SO swoony。 And the obstacles they ended up getting over made this story great！ The narration was excellent & I throughly enjoyed this listen。 Also。 LONDON！

2。5 stars I have never been so disappointed in finishing a book than I have for this one。 It was alright， even meh status to me。 It was honestly a struggle to get through the rest of this book。 Her insecurity was understandable at first， but by the end it got tiring。 Like we get it， but how much more does he have to prove that he wants to be with you？ Not to mention （view spoiler）[ she was going to walk out without telling him she was pregnant with his kid。。。 like wtf？ （hide spoiler）] I'm a su 2。5 stars I have never been so disappointed in finishing a book than I have for this one。 It was alright， even meh status to me。 It was honestly a struggle to get through the rest of this book。 Her insecurity was understandable at first， but by the end it got tiring。 Like we get it， but how much more does he have to prove that he wants to be with you？ Not to mention （view spoiler）[ she was going to walk out without telling him she was pregnant with his kid。。。 like wtf？ （hide spoiler）] I'm a sucker for a friends to lover trope， but this one has me wanting to pull my hair out。 Never been so happy to finish a book and never to pick it up again。 。。。more

WowWow what a book。 Finding yourself in love with the girl he had known his whole life。 They were perfect together。 Needed time to process but it worked out for them。 Great book

I really liked the first half until the heroine turned into whiny little thing who couldn‘t make up her mind。 Kinda ruined my enjoyment of the whole thing。Promised nights is well written story telling wise but I almost DNF‘ed because Ashleigh aggravated me so much。3 stars because I really liked the book until Ashleigh had the most stupid idea for them to break up and was really hard headed about getting back together。

Underneath a magnolia treeI always love a best friends/sibling love story。 I read this book a long time ago as the series "Calling Me"。 I enjoyed it then and This second time around。 I think it's often true that we miss things right in front of us， whether they are good or bad。 They both were looking for things with other people they were meant to have with each other。 Ashleigh has been in love with Luke for her entire life， and when Luke finally wakes up she's all he sees。 The connections betwe Underneath a magnolia treeI always love a best friends/sibling love story。 I read this book a long time ago as the series "Calling Me"。 I enjoyed it then and This second time around。 I think it's often true that we miss things right in front of us， whether they are good or bad。 They both were looking for things with other people they were meant to have with each other。 Ashleigh has been in love with Luke for her entire life， and when Luke finally wakes up she's all he sees。 The connections between all of the characters carries over from the first book。 I enjoyed watching their love blossom。 Great addition to the series。 。。。more

Author is hit or missSome of Louise Bay's books are fun reads， and other's are obnoxious。 This one happened to be the latter。 Ashleigh was so obnoxious。 She has zero self esteem and refuses to talk about her feelings in favor of acting rashly。 I guess there wouldn't have been a book without her drama， but it was so contrived and she really just came off as whiny。 Author is hit or missSome of Louise Bay's books are fun reads， and other's are obnoxious。 This one happened to be the latter。 Ashleigh was so obnoxious。 She has zero self esteem and refuses to talk about her feelings in favor of acting rashly。 I guess there wouldn't have been a book without her drama， but it was so contrived and she really just came off as whiny。 。。。more

Pretty good It took me a little longer to get through this one。 The heroines inability to believe the hero loved her just as much as she loved him was a bit tedious but overall a good story。 The other two books in this series were better。

I loved Luke and Ash。 Their banter in the previous read was fun and I couldn’t wait to read their story。 Unfortunately it wasn’t as good as the previous but an exciting read all the same。 Can’t wait to read Beth’s story。

After hearing their banter in Parisian Nights I was really looking forward to reading about Ashleigh and Luke's story but I was kind of disappointed。 It was a nice story overall but Ashleigh constantly doubting Luke's feelings and actions became very annoying quickly。 It was what Ashleigh wanted all along and when she finally got her HEA with Luke all she did was doubt everything。 A bit of a let down but hopefully the next book in the series won't be like that。 After hearing their banter in Parisian Nights I was really looking forward to reading about Ashleigh and Luke's story but I was kind of disappointed。 It was a nice story overall but Ashleigh constantly doubting Luke's feelings and actions became very annoying quickly。 It was what Ashleigh wanted all along and when she finally got her HEA with Luke all she did was doubt everything。 A bit of a let down but hopefully the next book in the series won't be like that。 。。。more
