About this ebook

The first book in the sexy new Grayson Brothers series by Christina Phillips!

Every good girl loves a very bad boy...

Scarlett Ashford needs a date for her father's wedding. Only she doesn't just need a guy in a suit-she needs a bodyguard. The only problem is that Jackson Grayson is big and gorgeous and way too sexy. So much so that Scarlett's tempted to let this hot bad boy ruin her oh-so-good reputation...

Jackson doesn't do relationships and he certainly doesn't sleep with clients. Yet he can't fight their inconvenient attraction, or how badly he wants Scarlett's warm and wicked curves against his body. He wants her. Now. Even if it's just for one night, and even if walking away the next morning isn't as easy as he thought.

Besides, one hot and incredibly intense night between a bad boy and a pampered princess could never turn into something real...could it?

Ratings and reviews

Once again, Phillips has crafted an interesting and heated novel. She combines sweet & sexy in a way that tugs at your heart. Phillips also works a number of touchy and heart wrenching subjects into the mix in a way that creates a much deeper tale. Phillips works hot sex into her faced paced story. She does so in a way that enhances the storyline, highlighting the relationship with the main characters. They were well developed, likeable individuals who had fantastic chemistry between them. I loved getting to know both of them. The shocking differences between their situations in life make it all the more poignant. This was a hot & sassy novel. Phillips held my attention from cover to cover & has created a world for this series that I will definitely be returning to. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.

Excellent read! Loved the characters of Scarlett and Jackson, and even though the opposites attract storyline isn't anything new, I thought the author did a great job of bringing new life to it! Scarlett needs a date to her father's wedding to avoid being set up with every money hungry bachelor around. She hires Jackson Grayson as a bodyguard/escort to take her to the event. What she didn't bargain on was the intense attraction or the amazing passion they shared during their one night together. Can they find common ground to build on?? You will want to grab a copy of this one and find out. I highly recommend it!

Entangled is synopsis for steamy entertainment. In a nutshell Hold Me until Midnight fits all that criteria. Alpha male meets an equally take charge female who recruits him as her date/bodyguard for a family wedding. Neither expects that their flirty, tension filled relationship will end up flaming out of control. DUH!!!. Very sensual, highly entertaining but not very original. All the ingredients for a great book. Received an ARC for an honest review.
