About this ebook

To help a friend in need, a sorority girl with a scorching hot secret is auctioning off her virginity in this sexy contemporary romance.

Vivi Prescott loves her sorority, Beta Kappa Nu. It’s her escape after a lifetime of living under her wealthy father’s overbearing thumb. She’ll do anything to help her sisters, including auction off her virginity to the highest bidder. One tiny hitch—she’s not a virgin.

Vivi gave that prize away three and a half years ago—right in the back of her brother’s best friend’s pickup truck. Dallas Monroe was a smug country boy with a dirty ball cap, torn jeans and a perpetual smirk. He showed her what pleasure could be, then let her go without a fight.

The mysterious, arrogant playboy who places the winning bid won’t ever know her secret. But his touch is so familiar, his mouth the one she’s been fantasizing about since forever. Turns out Dallas is all grown up. And he was never bidding for sex . . . he was bidding for keeps.

Ratings and reviews

Desiring to help a friend and her family who are suffering financial difficulty after tragedy, Vivi takes a drastic step when her father refuses to donate to the cause. With the other girls from her sorority, they set up an online auction to raise the money needed. However, things aren’t looking too good for Vivi when, despite their attempts at safety, things take a darker turn for her. This is a quick luscious tidbit that was over much too soon. It’s mostly erotica but with a strong romantic prose in between. It’s difficult to say much without giving away spoilers considering the length of the book. There wasn’t enough time to feel a bond with the characters but they were certainly likable, enough so that I would’ve liked to have had a full story about them. If you enjoy steamy romance about forever love, and finding happiness when it feels so lost, you might consider this for a refresher between lengthier reads. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book provided by NetGalley and Carina Press. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

***4 Stars*** Fun, quick and smexy read with heart that drew me in from the first page and kept me turning the pages until the very last word. Now when I say quick, I mean this one is a quick read ~ think short story/slice of life type of read ~ and there are times when they tend to...well...fall short in certain areas, but in this situation that isn’t the case. I mean I can’t say more than I liked Vivi and Dallas, but I can say that I felt their connection, the emotional turmoil that simmered between them and that I wanted them to work things out. I will admit that I would have liked a little more grovelling, because it’s me, but in the end I enjoyed how everything worked out. As for the reason behind the auction. Not gonna give it away, you need to read about it for yourself, but there is a pretty damn good reason for why these girls are going “there”. So if you’re looking for a quick, smexy read this is definitely one to check out! ~ Copy provided by the publisher via NetGalley & voluntarily reviewed ~
