Nina Crespo presents Up All Night with Lisa Kessler
Nina Crespo: Lisa Kessler is no stranger to books that keep readers up all night, having written her share of page-turners. Let’s see what keeps this best-selling author up all night.
What book are you currently reading or what’s the latest book you read that had you up all night?
I’m currently reading Deceptions by Kelley Armstrong. It’s book 3 in the Cainsville Series. I was a HUGE fan of her Women of the Otherworld series too! In Cainville nothing is as it seems. The town is actually a character unto itself. I love the mysteries and connections that are revealed in each book! So fun!
Why do you love to read?
Reading relaxes me and gives me a complete escape from the real world. My favorite genres for escaping into are paranormal romance, urban fantasy, horror, and historical fiction.
Lisa Kessler is the author of Pirate’s Pleasure, an adventurous story that will keep you up all night!
John Smyth has survived mutinous pirate crews, wars, and the passage of centuries by keeping his life as he did his ships, organized and well stocked. But when his crew is tasked with stealing Pandora’s Box for the government, it opens a door to destruction, and her name is Harmony Andrews.
A risk-taking investment broker by day, and a thief by night, Harmony is a member of the underground Digi Robins crew. Stealing relics to sell on the dark web, they donate the money to people without insurance who need life-saving medical treatments.
What she doesn’t realize is the box she just stole is the very one her boss is looking for––the boss who just happens to be an immortal pirate. And as their adventure heads into the danger zone, she doesn’t know what’s more dangerous: the risk to her life or the risk to her heart.

Nina Crespo presents Up All Night with Amy Andrews
Nina Crespo: Before they were authors, they were readers. Let’s see what Amy Andrews is reading that keeps her up past her bedtime.
What book are you currently reading or what’s the latest book you read that had you up all night?
My latest book I’m obsessed with is Tikka Chance On Me by Suleikha Snyder. It didn’t have me up all night because I read it during the day on a road trip, and I glared at my husband every time he wanted to talk to me for the three hours I was devouring the pages – he soon got the message. I just….it’s all the things. I laughed and I grinned and I got a little bit hot under the collar (and places significantly lower) and I even cried. Just the character names make me happy – Trucker Carrigan and Pinky Grover. How cool are they? I seriously recommend this book to anyone who stands still enough for long enough.
Why do you love to read?
I love how reading transports you. How it takes you someplace else for a little while. I love that I can be walking down a street in suburban Australia but actually be in 1700’s Scotland or riding the Hogwarts Express or in New York. I love that it engages my imagination and my emotions.
Amy Andrews is the author of Nothing But Trouble, the perfect small town, sports hero up-all-night read!
For five years, Cecilia Morgan’s entire existence has revolved around playing personal assistant to self-centered former NFL quarterback Wade Carter. But just when she finally gives her notice, his father’s health fails, and Wade whisks her back to his hometown. CC will stay for his dad—for now—even if that means ignoring how sexy her boss is starting to look in his Wranglers.
To say CC’s notice is a bombshell is an insult to bombs. Wade can’t imagine his life without his “left tackle.” She’s the only person who can tell him “no” and strangely, it’s his favorite quality. He’ll do anything to keep her from leaving, even if it means playing dirty and dragging her back to Credence, Colorado, with him.
But now they’re living under the same roof, getting involved in small-town politics, and bickering like an old married couple. Suddenly, five years of fighting is starting to feel a whole lot like foreplay. What’s a quarterback to do when he realizes he might be falling for his “left tackle”? Throw a Hail Mary she’ll never see coming, of course.

Nina Crespo presents Up All Night with Talia Hibbert
Nina Crespo: I’m thrilled to feature a few of my favorite author friends and the books they love. Let’s see what book is keeping Talia Hibbert “Up All Night.”
What book are you currently reading or what’s the latest book you read that had you up all night?
I’m currently reading (and loving) Hoops Holiday by Kennedy Ryan, even though the holidays are over! I adore the world she’s built around her basketball players, so after falling in love with Hook Shot recently, I had to dive into this one.
Why do you love to read?
Reading is a portal to countless different worlds, lives, and experiences. I consider it such a gift to have so many potential emotions and new perspectives packed neatly into one paperback or ebook file. What other medium combines your imagination with someone else’s creativity so seamlessly? It’s the OG virtual reality.
Talia Hibbert is the author of That Kind of Guy, the perfect up-all-night read.
She wants a fake relationship. He needs something real.
If there’s one thing Rae can’t stand, it’s pity. She’s forty, frazzled, and fed up—so attending an awards ceremony alone while her ex swans about with his new wife? Not an option. To avoid total humiliation, Rae needs a date of her own. And her young, hot-as-hell new best friend is the perfect candidate…
Zach Davis, king of casual hookups, has a secret: the notorious womaniser craves emotional connection, and anonymous encounters leave him feeling hollow. After years of performance, Zach’s desperate to be himself. So why does he agree to play Rae’s fake boyfriend? And why does it feel so easy?
When the line between pretence and desire blurs, Zach’s forced to face an unexpected truth: there’s nothing phoney about his need for Rae. But the jaded divorcée’s been hurt by playboy men before. Can a weekend of faking it prove that Zach’s for real?
