From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

Growing up, the three of us were friends.
He was the nerd.
I was the playboy.
She was the beauty.

Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits.

He lied.

I went off to college, and he got the girl.
Amber never knew how I felt.
They were together for years—before he broke her heart.

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch.
When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men.
One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings.
Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy—curiosity.
Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message.
She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend—me. But she considered me off-limits—and she thought I was a manwhore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel.
When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she was stunned to see me standing there—with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse.

Review by Lorena
I won't lie and say I didn't like this book because on the contrary...I LOVED IT!

Penelope Ward has a way to hook and slay me with her books. She is the queen of angst!

Three unbelievable characters that will pull you in from the moment you start until you finish. You will get addicted with these characters.

I wasn't sure which way I wanted to go but after a few chapters in, I was a goner and knew instantly who I was rooting for.

This story will leave you gasping and wondering throughout the book.

But Penelope always has a way to make you feel the feels with her books. There's always something there that will pull your heart strings one way or another.

Ms. Wards' books just keep getting better and better and so damn addicting!

Another well written story. This one is going on my top read for 2018!!
