Blurb
We all have one. A price. That magic number that will get us to agree to do anything, be anything. Don’t sit on your gold-plated high horse and say you don’t because you do. Everyone does. Each of us has something we covet enough that we’d sell ourselves to have it. What’s my tipping point, you ask? Apparently a cool quarter mil will do the trick. What does one do for 250 large, you wonder? Anything the infamous, gorgeous playboy of Seattle wants. For the next four months I’ll be Shaw Mercer’s arm candy, his beck and call girl, his faux girlfriend. I’ll be his to command, mold, push and pull in any direction he sees fit. I’ll fight falling into bed with him. I’ll fight falling in love with him even harder. I’ll fail at both. And when my past and present collide in the most unexpected of ways, I’ll learn that while one man’s love for me has never died, the only man’s love I really want will never be mine.
Review
This isn't the first book I've read by KL Kreig, but I can easily say her writing as excelled since the Regent Vampire Lords series. I didn't love that series, but I did enjoy it. So I on a whim decided to give this a try. When I say it blew me out of the water, I mean it. I didn't have high expectations for this book. Which probably was my first mistake, it was so much better than expected. The writing flow was smooth and easily transitioned from one point of view to the other. I never had a moment where I had to look back to see who it was, which has happened in a few of the books I've read lately.
The character development is pretty much perfect, all are really solid and thought out. You get little tidbits of information of past and present, here and there as you go to keep the mystery of things. It will definitely keep things interesting in the second book, with the way things ended. I just need to put this out there. I love, love that Willow (Summer) is a voice actor for audio books. And is working on a KL book, one I haven't read I might add. I am anxiously awaiting for that to be released! I will not be going in with low expectations, that's for sure.
