Title: Strip Back
Series: Naked Nights #0.5
Author: Ava Manello
Cover by:Margreet Asselbergs
Hosted by:Francessca’s Romance Reviews
Synopsis:
Strip Back brings you back to how the Naked Night's began. This is Eric's story. Back when life was a little less polished, and a whole lot harder.
Before there was Strip Teaser, there was Eric; manager and founder of the Naked Night’s male stripper troupe.
You wouldn’t think you’d be past it at 34, but that’s the position Eric found himself in, as well as newly single after finding his girlfriend in a compromising position.
Setting up the Naked Night’s wasn’t easy, it wasn’t fun, and it wasn’t without sleaze, but somehow he did it.
Strip Back is a humorous and steamy tale of one man’s journey to fulfill a dream. Not all male strippers are the same.

Review by Nadia Chief Obsessive Pimpette
***Part of Ava Manello's beta team***
Hello and welcome to the very beginning of the Naked Nights. From the low of being on your knees (well ..finding a certain someone in a dubious position!) through cringe worthy auditions to a victorious opening night. This book is a fast paced entertaining look behind the scenes of a male strippers act. We follow Eric as he is sacked from his current job and decides to use it as an opportunity to achieve his goal. He sets up on his own and follows his dream of an act that is about the beauty of the male form, the music and the interpretation of the lyrics. Eric has a vision and this is his story of making dreams become a reality.
Christy is his leading lady and without saying too much they fall head over heels in lust and this develops into a shoulda woulda coulda type thing which I hope we pick up on as suggested in the next book! Their sexy time scenes are hot, realistic and you can almost feel the heat between them as you read.
The beginnings and Eric's past also make re reading Strip Teaser fresh, as we gain insight into why he acts as he does. This was a quick, humorous read that ticks all the boxes. A four star sizzling read.
Review by Emma Mistress of all Dark & Twisted
Stripped Back is a brilliant prequel novella by Ava Manello and focuses on answering all those burning questions we had over Eric and why he set up the Naked Nights from Strip Teaser and how all the men we came to love Alex, Tiny, Guido to name a few joined him.
We see his journey from unhappy, miserable and disillusioned seedy stripper to a new troupe manager and all that that entails suffering through: dire dance auditions, laughable job adverts and very bizarre clothing choices!!
He also has some red hot moves at play with a very lucky lady and the saying you don't know what you've got till its gone has never been more true. This is the perfect one sitting read: fun, hot and entertaining with a great soundtrack too!!

About the Author
Passionate reader, blogger, publisher, and author. I love nothing more than helping other Indie authors publish their books be that reviewing, beta reading, formatting or proofreading,
I love erotic suspense that's well written and engages the reader, and I love promoting the heck out of it over on my book blog.
I'm a mother, but most of all I'm me!
