Fiction. Romance. HTML:WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS STAYS IN VEGAS. BUT WHAT DIDN'T HAPPEN IN VEGAS SEEMS TO FOLLOW THEM EVERYWHERE??Book Three in the sexy, fun New York Times bestselling Wild Seasons series that began with Sweet Filthy Boy (the Romantic Times Book of the Year) and Dirty Rowdy Thing.
Lola and Oliver like to congratulate themselves on having the good sense not to consummate their drunken Las Vegas marriage. If they'd doubled-down on that mistake, their Just Friends situation might not be half as great as it is now.

...Or so goes the official line.

In reality, Lola's wanted Oliver since day one??and over time has only fallen harder for his sexy Aussie accent and easygoing ability to take her as she comes. More at home in her studio than in baring herself to people, Lola's instinctive comfort around Oliver nearly seems too good to be true. So why ruin a good thing?

Even as geek girls fawn over him, Oliver can't get his mind off what he didn't do with Lola when he had the chance. He knows what he wants with her now...and it's far outside the friend zone. When Lola's graphic novel starts getting national acclaim??and is then fast-tracked for a major motion picture??Oliver steps up to be there for her whenever she needs him. After all, she's not the kind of girl who likes all that attention, but maybe she's the kind who'll eventually like him.

Sometimes seeing what's right in front of us takes a great leap of faith. And sometimes a dark wild night in Vegas isn't just the end of a day, but the beginning of a bright

This series gets a little more out there with every book. Didn't love this one. ( )

Terzo libro della serie che narra dell’ultima coppia “nata” a Las Vegas, composta da Lola e Oliver.
In questo la storia e le scene di sesso risultano più bilanciate rispetto ai precedenti, in compenso il personaggio femminile, Lola, riesce a diventare, nel corso dello sviluppo della vicenda, veramente insopportabile a causa delle sue insicurezze che le faranno prendere decisioni veramente irritanti e assurde. Non riuscire a pensare di poter conciliare la vita quotidiana con l’amore per un uomo è quanto di peggio ci possa essere, quando poi questa persona è colui che è riuscito a conquistare la tua fiducia e amicizia è ancor più deprecabile e denota soltanto immaturità e grettezza d’animo.
Troppo esasperante, a mio avviso, il personaggio femminile per potermi far apprezzare veramente il libro, che in alcune parti è riuscito solo a infastidirmi. ( )

As a general rule, so as not to become the "sole romance reader" at the bookstore I work at, I don't read romance books. But back in September, I was going through Sarah J Maas withdrawal and was scooping up anything and everything I could get my hands on that she endorsed. And even though we shelve this book in romance at the bookstore, knowing that B&N shelves it in fiction gave me hope that it wouldn't be too mind numbing. Plus, I still held out hope that this might finally be a true New Adult book - relevant to actual young adults... well, I've ranted on this topic enough to not rehash it here.

Alas, New Adult has once again proved to be a huge disappointment. Dark Wild Night is not the New Adult I want, but the New Adult the world is stuck with. It's all sex, which is not to say I don't like a decent scene every now and then in my reading, but 2/3 of the book are simply descriptions of the different types of sex Oliver and Lola wind up having - which is not a spoiler, it's the whole basis for the plot. While Lola and Oliver are at least three-dimensional characters, most of the dialogue and descriptions of things felt forced and unnatural - I don't know anyone who talks or describes things in the way these two hapless lovers do. Basically, the phrasing sucked, and the believe-ability of the phrasing is pretty much the only thing these types of books usually have going for them. ( )

Lola and Oliver decided, unlike their friends, to get their hasty Las Vegas marriage annulled. This decision has allowed them to remain friends and with so many interests in common, their relationship has blossomed. However, both of them have been harboring feelings for one another that go beyond friendship and have decided that it's time to take their relationship to the next level, but Lola's first book is about to be made into a movie, while a deadline for her second book looms. Will she be able balance her career and her feelings for Oliver?

Dark Wild Night tackles the real world problem of trying to have a successful career and a fulfilling love life. Lola quickly discovers the pitfalls of trying to have both, but rather than dealing with the problem, she allows herself to become overwhelmed, making her a less than sympathetic character. Neither Lola nor Oliver are developed well as characters because most of their inner monologues deal with their feelings about each other rather than how they will attack their personal issues, leaving Oliver to appear a little wishy-washy and Lola a bit of a selfish diva. Overall, Dark Wild Night, unfortunately, does not live up to the first two installments of the Wild Seasons series. 3 1/2 stars. ( )

I've given this 3 stars only because I've read most of the others and some of the surprise, the freshness was lost, but still, I did like Oliver, so patient! and yes, Narshkite, your comment below that Oliver is too perfect, true, but what the heck. And Lola, an interesting character but as with other Christina Lauren stories, the heroine pales beside the heroes unfortunately. Their heroines are frustrating and flawed and don't have the charisma of the men - how about it - readers please recommend to me some romances where the heroine has the level of charisma of Christina Lauren's leading men. I need to believe!

Agree with you, karenhulseman, that Ansel and Mia were better developed characters - I think that book is my pick too, though PLEASE! no more Shayna Thibodeaux - for me, using the same narrator makes the characters too much the same – they each need their own voice, literally. ( )
