Sophie needed help running the company that her father left her.
In come Parker, Bo and Royce to give her the guiding hand that she needs to be successful.
Along the way she comes into herself and gains the confidence to succeed.
I love how Audrey brings real artists and their works into the story. It had me googling them along the way.
Parker aka Mr Dream Maker now had been assigned to help Skyler.
Skyler is an actress who has lost her muse for acting.
Parker and Skyler have a chemistry that is unmatched. Parker does everything he can to light Skyler's fire so she will fall in love with acting again.
Will Parker be able to say goodbye to his crush?
Parker is now being beckoned to Copenhagen by Princess Mary to help tame her daughter Princess Christina.
Christina had been in love with Prince Sven forever.
When Prince Sven becomes Heir Apparent Princess Christina changes and becomes a wild child. Trying to get Sven to marry her older sister Elizabeth as she will make a better Queen for the country.
Parker brings in Bo to help Christina see that she will make a wife and Queen.

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley and Montlake Romance in return for an honest review and it was actually the first 3 books of a series of twelve novellas. Having recently read the Calendar Girl series, I can see more than a few similarities between the two. On the surface, they seem very similar just with a gender change for the main character but that is not the case. Parker Ellis and his best friends Bo - Bogart and Roy- Royce are the owner of International Guy Inc., a unique company that helps women achieve their goals and dreams. . Their nicknames are Dreammaker, Lovemaker and Moneymaker. As the stories develop, you see Parker and his two partners are more than just a pretty face and have skills in business as well as with the ladies.
All three stories are entertaining and fun and Carlan develops the women's characters from strong with issues to strong and confident.

Although I've 'read' Audrey Carlan's Lotus House series on audio it doesn't really give you the full experience of reading an author for the first time.
International Guy is comprised of 3 novellas with Parker Ellis as the main character. He is one of three shareholders of International Guy Inc. with his two friends Bogart and Royce.
Each novella takes us to a different city and a different client in need of IG services.
Parker employs different strategies for each of his clients to help solve their problems and does so in the most delicious of ways!
Of the three cities and clients, Copenhagen is definitely my favourite!
I can't wait to find out which of the other guys is next and which cosmopolitan city will be at its centre.
For sure it'll be on my tbr pile!

A new introduction to this author. A very good steamy romance book that will leave you wanting more from this book. Great characters that are relatable.

Just like her Calendar Girl books, this was a fun and easy read. I raced through it. Her books are so much better than Fifty Shades. I'm glad she's writing more. I'll read anything she writes. Light, fun, brain candy. :)

I have never read a series like this and it intrigued me from the blurb alone.
When you start reading a story that has not one, not two but three Hot, successful men in it, what do you think?? Heaven maybe?? Lol.
Their attributes are just mind boggling. They do their job incredibly well. You cannot help wanting to be a part of it.
Unique and so steamy with banter and name dropping that might cause a giggle. The author has written something absolutely amazing!!
They do their utmost to learn everything about their clients, yes everything! Going to the nth degree to complete each job to their utmost ability! Each man has a certain task and it really makes the whole process very interesting indeed!
This volume goes to help a client in Paris, New York and Copenhagen!
The friendships between the men are incredibly open and truthful and they tell each other everything!!! Dear me, you kind of want to be in a room with all 3!!
And the luxuries, the money they make, may make you kind of jealous lol
I admire the authors brilliant mind on creating such a unique and intriguing story! Can't wait for more of this series! I'm definitely #TeamParker
I loved so much about reading these stories I am really excited for more! I want to know what happens!!
Add this series to your TBR list, you won't be disappointed!

Loved this book, The male perspective is a nice change of pace from where we often see the main character is a female telling the story. Another great story from Audrey Carlan

A great read, I really enjoyed all 3 stories and can’t wait to read more. This was my first read by Audrey Carlan and I cannot wait for the rest of the series! I especially loved Parker and Skyler, their chemistry was amazing.
I need more!

BOOK 1
"My gift... I understand women. Parker Ellis is my name, and I am one lucky son of a bitch."
I am a MAJOR fan of Audrey Carlan's CALENDAR GIRL Book Series and am so excited to get a unique male version!!! International Guy is completely different from Calendar Girl with our man, Parker, who runs his International business with his two buddies. It appears we get to go globe trotting in each book experiencing different international destinations along with high end clientele for their unique business!
Book 1, PARIS, was a quick fun read packed with some drama. It lays out the series giving us a brief introduction of what to expect. I can't wait to see where this series takes me to next!
BOOK 2
"I'm not here to judge you. I'm here to help you find yourself again."
description
Dream Maker aka Parker really touched me with seeing him paired up with his absolute, hottest, celebrity crush this month in NYC! Parker is to help Skyler find her muse...
description
I really enjoyed this month and seeing them bond. Can't wait to see where Carlan takes us next....
BOOK 3
I could NOT put DOWN this BOOK! I LOVED this royal romance twist with plenty of drama and twists that kept the story going. If your in the mood for a book after that ROYAL WEDDING then this will definitely fill the void! Ahhh I really liked how Carlan intertwined the secondary characters in this plot and how everything slowly plays out. And the ending.... well I am getting nervous for what is to come in Book 4.

As a long-time fan of Audrey Carlan’s work, I have read most of her available library and enjoyed the majority of the stories within; although I must admit to not really being a fan of serial series. That said, I was totally addicted to the Calendar Girl 12 part serial, and except for one or two instalments, I was thoroughly hooked!
I did have some reservations about this new serial, especially when the lead characters were single men. Naturally enough, I assumed they were probably going to be a bunch of manwhores, totally focused on their own wants and needs. Well I was pleasantly surprised. Yes, they do love women, in all their shapes, colours and ethnicity, and while they each enjoy their freedom to pursue any and all varieties, they also have a unique respect for each and every one they encounter.
Parker, Bo and Royce are exceptionally yummy, but they are portrayed with class and deep-seated values. I was smitten with them all, and can’t wait to read what Ms Carlan has in store for the next round of instalments. Being a true romantic, I’m hoping by the end of the 12 part series, all three will be head over heels in love with one special lady.

This book was a nice compliation by Audrey Carlan. I enjoyed the diverse variety of characters. It kept me wanting to read more and more, and the exotic locations were a real treat. I definitely enjoyed this book and would recommend it to readers who enjoy erotic romance. While I would have enjoyed more backstories on the characters, you do grow to learn about them throughout the book.

International Guy Volume 1
Audrey Carlan
PARIS
⭐️⭐️⭐️
International Guy is the newest series for Audrey Carlan, set with 3 best friends. Parker, Bo and Roy own this business that helps grow all things life and love. Him and his pals have all the necessary goods to make the deal, but Parker Ellis, he’s your man….
Their newest client is perfume heiress Sophie Rolland, they are about about to spend a few days in Paris making this woman, beautiful, sexy and ready to rule to boardroom. With a string character, it doesn’t take long for sweet shy Sophie to become a lion. With these three men, she’ll have everything she wants and needs. This includes Parker.
Parker is smitten from first glance at the fragrance queen, she’s stunning although a little shy. Showing her that business is not all meetings and shareholders, but fun, sexy and mind blowing. This man knows his way around a woman, and he’s about to find out all about miss Sophie Rolland.
Another positive business venture with perfect memories, Parker, Bo and Roy move into the next big thing…
International Guy volume 2
NEW YORK
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Mr Parker Ellis, Dream Maker- I’m not sure if this is for the characters in the book, or for The readers. This man is scorchingly hot, and New York was just amazing. I loved this story and devoured it as quickly as I could.
I was a little cautious going in after discovering main character was a film star, sometimes they are just such a pain the proverbial back side but I have to say Skylar Paige, changed my whole opinion. She opened herself up as a woman, not just the star everyone wants a piece of. Money can’t buy you everything and when she looses all will to move in with her acting/ model career it is Parker who opens her eyes to new possibilities. A new life where she has the control.
When Parker is hired to bring back Skylar from the brink of devastation, he is more than a little excited. She has forever been his crush (even in his dirty dreams, if you get my drift), so moving in spending time with her is EveryThing…. What he didn’t expect was for her to turn his world upside down. A job to help a woman questioning her entire life, equals a journey of self discovery, inner worth and scorching chemistry. Parker uses his charm, his appeal and his dream maker status to create 3 weeks of bliss. At the end of this job, he’ll be reeling over his sexy actress. He’s never met or believed in finding his 1, but Skylar leaves a taste he can’t help but want to follow. But the end is the end, and he must walk away…. For now.
International Guy Volume 3
COPENHAGEN
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This story/ series has really come into itself and I’m loving it. Copenhagen is volume 3 in this book and I have to say I loved it as much as New York. A little royal thought for you. Keep u. Mind this is fiction, so what we all know of the danish royals is a little different in this story, if you give it that little leverage, I’m sure you’re going to love it too.
Parker Ellis, whom I assumed was a bad boy CEO who sleeps around has become the good guy, actually the great International Guy. This particular job will be his biggest test, taming Princess Christina Kaarsberg for The danish throne will be his biggest task to date. Walking away from Skylar in New York plays heavily on his life and heart. Funding a royal playing up means he’ll have to dig deep to find what’s got her gone rogue….
While tailing the Princess, he discovers a whole new world and side to the danish royal. She’s not all bad girl, she has a lovely side, one he must get her to see before she loses everything including the man she loves. Prince Sven, desperately wants her by his side, and if she won’t step up he’ll go alone. She is his forever, he is her long time love; Parker will find that elastic to break for the good of both.

This was a decent book. The character of Parker rubbed me the wrong way at times, with his playboy attitude and behaviors. It just made it more difficult to believe he had true feelings for Sophie. I’d like to read some of Carlan’s other work!

This story seems to be from the viewpoint of Parker Ellis who co-owns International Guy with his 2 friends Bo and Royce. It is a company that helps people to make themselves better in business, love or whatever they need help in. Parker knows women and how to make them feel “loved”, Bo makes them over with clothes, hair, etc and Royce is the money man who can help them with finances.
I guess there are 12 books and this called International Guy: Paris.
I’m not really sure what to feel. It’s unlike anything I’ve read before and not what I usually like. I LOVE HEA with 1 couple. Sure this was a fun read and really really hot but I just didn’t like that Parker had sex with several people. I loved the interactions with his dad and his friends but I really prefer there to a HEA for a couple. I like that no one was hurt and went into it with eyes open but not my style. I really was hot which I like but it wasn’t my kind of story though Audrey does write really well and it was a quick read

This was really good! Gave me Calendar Girl vibes but, not so much where it felt like an exact copy of her previous work. Now I just want more of the boys!

My name is Parker Ellis. You can call me The Dream Maker. This is where my story begins.International Guy Inc. is owned and operated by Parker Ellis, a ladies’ man with a high IQ and a big libido. He’s the most successful life and love coach in the world, and he’s smart enough to know he can’t run a multimillion-dollar company alone.He hires two friends whose areas of expertise complement his own. They comprise The Dream Maker, The Love Maker, and The Money Maker. When I started reading I couldn't put it down I read the book in one day.Audrey Carlan is magnifysent writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.

International Guy is a series you can't stop reading. I couldn't put these first 3 books down. I love the men behind International Guy. Parker, Bo and Royce have an amazing friendship and bond that shines throughout this series. Parker is the main focus on the first 3 books as he navigates 3 different cases in 3 different cities. You first meet Sophie and you can't help but love the changes these men make in her life. The friendship between all of them is amazing. By book 2 Parker is on a new case which involves his dream girl Skyler. With his help she blossoms and the change in Skyler and Parker is amazing. You hope his dream girl will become his forever. Only time will tell I guess. Book 3 the final in this volume Parker helps Princess Christina over come her fears. Not only does he get her to do that but steers her in the arms of the man she loves. It's beautiful to watch the changes the ladies go through with the help of the International Guys. I can't wait to read more of this series now that I started.

While I've heard fantastic things about Ms. Carlan's books I hadn't read one. I must say I am impressed by her writing and ability to draw a reader into her world.
1: Paris
While I really enjoyed this story I didn't fall in love with it. There was no particular thing, I just didn't connect to the story. The writing was great and set in the romance capital of the world which was fantastic. Since I didn't know anything about the series I felt a little punched in the gut when there wasn't a traditional HEA. Overall I'd give this one 3 stars.
2. New York
Now this one was my favorite!!! I loved the feel of this one and completely fell for Parker and Skyler. Their chemistry was just on point and the easy way they fell into one another so completely really drew me in. This one is deserving of all 5 stars!!!
3. Copenhagen
I really liked this one and it fell in the middle of the order in which I liked each novella. I loved Princess Christina. The way she was willing to back down to ensure her country had the proper Queen even if it meant breaking her own heart along with that of the man she loves but Parker will ensure the rightful Queen sits on the throne.
This one ends on a cliffhanger with Parker and Skyler. Can't wait to see what the next one has in store for them.
This one was a 4 star read.
**Received ARC from NetGalley. Voluntarily reviewed**

Audrey Carlan does it again with International Guy. She has left me wanting more. If you loved the Calendar Series you will love International Guy.

I've read and loved Calendar Girl so I kind of had an idea of what to expect. I really enjoyed Parker he was so likable. Usually, I have a problem with characters sleeping with multiple people. You know before you go into these what to expect. I find myself rooting for each one.
