This was a pretty good read with plenty of suspense the story will pull you right in with plenty of steam and lots of drama I really did enjoy it. Rhys and Ashtyn were great characters but did not have an easy time. A good book to curl up with on a quiet afternoon.

Ashtyn and Rhys

This was such an awesome quick read! Ashtyn and Rhys were lovable and I liked there was no major conflict between the two of them. The conflict was due to a third party while Ashtyn and Rhys stayed strong. Loved finding this author, I cannot wait to read more of her books!

Rhys & Ashtyn’s story was a suspenseful romance. It had plenty of drama, action and a bit of angst to keep you hooked. What started out as a friends with benefits to get over their recent breakups, turned into a sweet HEA. I loved the intimacy and connection between Rhys and Ashtyn.

Kallestra Spencer and Eric Umstatt did a really good job narrating and bringing these characters to life.

First time reading this author. Enjoyable with great characters. I LOVED the mini concert songs that were included. Great choices and added to the swoon factor.

This book disappointed me. I was really excited for it, if caught be from the first chapter. I was really into finding out who was stocking her and then it was over, just like that. And then her ex comes back in and takes over the rest of the book, it seems to me as though the author was trying to figure something else out to throw into the book to make it interesting so she decided to throw the fact that Corey would shoot Ryhs. And then Corey disappears only to come back on the day there getting married and get put into jail.
I just felt as though the author could have kept the stocker thing going longer instead of ending it right away.
I’ll give Another one of her books I try because I did enjoy her writing I just wish she would of done the book differently.

I read Use Me again last night when it hit my Kindle. It was even better the second time around. Can I rate it twice? Don't miss out!!!! Check out Use Me today.

WoW!!! What an exciting nail biter and fun romance all wrapped up in one amazing book. Two bad break ups, a couple of drinks and a bad pick up line result in Rhys Cole telling Ashtyn Valor, "Use Me."

This review has been very challenging to write. I put something down and then realize SPOILER and delete. I want to say "wait until you read about........"and then realize you just have to read it. I There are so many things that blew my mind. There are so many things that will shock you.

During all the ugly, during all the of the suspense, during all of the terrible things a beautiful love blossoms. This story became a beautiful statement of the strength of love.

If and when I figure out how to tell you about this beyond amazing book without spoilers I will add to this review. But at this point I have to say this is an amazing story. It will have you jumping out of your seat. It will be biting your nails. It will have you totally swooning over Rhys. It will be hard to put down.

Use Me was thrilling to read. Along with the idea of two broken hearted people meeting each other by chance, there are twists and turns that you don’t see coming. There was instant chemistry between Ashtyn and Rhys. Even with their heartbreaks system first meeting they can still bring light into each others lives. Even though it’s starts out as a friendship, their feelings come quick and strong. This book was not only thrilling but has added bits of humor into it. This book is definitely alluring in the mysterious aspect as well as the steamy and contemporary romance aspects. The setting was good, the characters were enjoyable, the plot was exciting!

I definitely enjoy this book and think it is a great read for all!

"Use me had been my first book of Kimberly Knight. And i enjoyed it.
Whats positive about these book is that the Style was really nice to read. So fluently.
Also the story was plottetd really well. As a reader you have chance to get a glance of the main characters and how they'r living before we they get in trouble with there lives.
I really liked the setting of these book Chicago is a beautiful city plus the world Ashtyn and Rhys worked in. Kimberly brought us a lot of details about how a tv channel works behind the Scenes. An interesting point abut these book was also that both characters where famose in there own ways so they both know about problems that with that fact.
The Idea definetly was interesting and not a normal story. Or for me it was not the normal way these books normally work like. The tilte ha been programm.
But some parts of the book had been to mich Drama for me. Even if i was able to see that drama will come again. And also there had been some sences in this book where Ok thtahs abit akward but if they wanna do it like that.
But i was able to see a lot of humor the story. there had been some parts where i grinned to my self while reading.

Rhys is a nice Man. He is able to talk to Women like the need need it in some situaion and he is really spontanius. He has a good humor.
Ashtyn is also a good female protagonist. As we see she is really tough and she does what she wants. Also trust her self.

All in all these book was a nice read four of five stars.
