BLURB:

The odds of Syx Rouge, aspiring fashion illustrator and current assistant to world-renowned vocalist, Amiyah Mallard, indulging in an unsolicited, overly pleasurable, steamy night with a man like Trough were slim to none. However, a slight turn of events redirected the odds in her favor.

Ultra-sexy and centric Syx was at her wits end. Her New Year’s celebration had been strategically planned since her older sister, Sevyn, faced her fears and relocated to the Big City. In New York surrounded by laughter, love, music, drinks and the thrill of the people is where Syx desperately wanted to be. Yet, she found herself missing the very last flight bound for the Big City and stranded in Atlanta, GA. A hint of fate scrambled her way as she returned home after discovering her plans were shot. Amiyah Mallard, with her own agenda in mind, forces her husband to give Syx a lift, compliments of his private plane. A slew of unexpected, yet fortunate, occurrences leaves Syx dazed and confused after waking up on New Year’s Day in unknown territory, on a dangerously comforting mattress, tangled in Italian sheets with her beloved boss’s life partner. Trough Mallard.

MY THOUGHTS:

Okay, so I just finished Syx and the City, and I’m STILL sitting here stunned! I got to the end, and all I could think was, That’s it? That’s ALL?! This little novelette is short but packs a serious punch. The ending left me on a cliffhanger so wild that I literally stood up and looked around like, really ? It’s over ?!🥹🥹 I desperately needed more !

Grey Huffington knows how to keep you hooked, and now I’m diving into the entire series because, clearly, I need answers—and more of this vibe. I mean, this story is just perfect for the season too, set around New Year’s Eve with a big snowstorm in NYC. Cozy and intense at the same time! I honestly can’t believe this was published back in 2018, and I’m just now discovering it, but I’m so glad I did.

Now, I’ve got all five books in the Syx and the City series lined up for tonight. (Who needs sleep, right?) If you want a quick, binge-worthy read with holiday feels, this is the one. Thank you, Grey Huffington, for always keeping me hooked!
