Review: Prequel to The Proposition- not a necessity to the series but interesting
Rating: 4 out of 5

The Party is a novella in author Katie Ashley's The Proposition series. The Party is the prequel; Aidan and Emma's life and relationships before their future interactions in The Proposition. It was interesting but not overly exciting. However, what bumped my rating up from a 2 1/2 or 3-star rating was reading about when Aidan and Emma first meet! Yeah, there is attraction there right away on both sides but when Emma's friends tell her about Aidan's reputation, I loved the way she turned him down! Also, this novella shows some stress in Emma and Connor's friendship when (view spoiler). This novella is not a necessity for reading the The Proposition and The Proposal but I did enjoy reading some of the events that were mentioned in those books. I rated The Party 3 1/2 stars rounding up to 4 on goodreads.My favorite quote:"'So picture it-' Emma giggled. 'What is this, the Golden Girls with Sophia and 'Picture it- Sicily?' Connor cleared his throat. 'Can I just tell my damn story please?' 'Fine, fine.'"
