Celeste is living her life filled with guilt, so is Sebastian. She hides away in her office, while he lives dangerously and takes risks. When they meet they both feel a connection with another person that they haven't felt in a very long time. He shows her how to live her life fully and she helps him find the man that he used to be. This is a spicy and quick read. I read it in a few hours. Great read.

I received an egalley of this book from Tule Publishing in exchange for review consideration. The following review is still my honest opinion.
Quick Facts
• New adult
• For mature readers
• Erotica
• Fast paced
• Surprising depth
• Too rushed in some areas
• 4 of 5 braincells (stars)
This was a very fast read and I easily read it in one day. I was expecting a light read, and this book was that; but it was so much more. This book had surprising depth for a novel with a good girl falls for the bad boy premise. Sebastian and Celeste have both experienced loss and that connects them. Each of them has dealt with the loss in different ways. The sex scenes were H.O.T. However, the rest of the novel was not just filler to get to more sex. There was actual building of the characters, but I would have liked a slower pace at some points, because a lot happens in a short amount and sometimes things (like character development and the romance) felt so rushed. Overall I really enjoyed this book. It’s definitely new adult, romance, erotica but with surprising depth. Having never read anything from the author before I can say I will definitely be checking out more books from her after reading this one!

No rest for the Wicked is book #1 in the International Bad Boys series and it's a great start to a new series from Tule Publishing.
Sebastian's best friend Judd died in a car accident while Sebastian was in the car and ever since the accident Sebastian became a risk taker that keeps looking for the next dangerous adventure in life.
Sebastian's parents are very worried about him and they are trying to convince Celeste, a grief counselor to be his therapist but Celeste only works with kids and teenagers and on top of that as soon as she sees Sebastian's pictures she feel a strong attraction to him and she knows she won't be able to be his therapist but she does want to meet him and get to know him better.
I really enjoyed reading about Celeste and Sebastian, they both need to overcome past tragedy in their life in order to move forward and be together.
No Rest for the Wicked was a sexy and emotional novella that I enjoyed reading.
I hope there will be a story for Celeste's friend Kendra since there were hints about her life that made me want to know more about her.

I really truly liked the story line and Celeste and Sebastian's characters, but felt that a novella was not long enough to truly pull it off. Ms. Garbera is a talented writer, but the story felt rushed and shortened. Good read, just not long enough.

I wanted so desperately to love this book. Sebastian and Celeste have both faced devastating tragedies in their life but they reacted very differently in the aftermath. Somehow, will these two lost souls bring each other into the light?
This is a very quick read and I found the beginning of the book quite enjoyable. However, where this book lost some of it's WOW was in how quickly it was finished. One of my pet peeves is a well written beginning and a rushed ending as if it was an after thought; unfortunately this book fit that bill. At one part in the story, Celeste was in tears and devastated and literally the next paragraph everything was all better. This book couldn't have really been a winner if the ending of this book at been extended and not felt so rushed. With all of that said, it was still a decent story to read on a relaxing day.
