Description
Workaholic accountant Elizabeth Sewell needs a man. According to her well-laid-out life plan, it’s time to find Mr. Right and move on to the next phase of her life. The problem is, she’s been so busy working her way up the career ladder, she wouldn’t spot Mr. Right even if he were carrying a neon sign. So, being an organized businesswoman, she comes up with a strategy. She’ll hire a man to provide her with a variety of experiences. That way, she’ll know what she wants. It’s just that easy, right? Disillusioned attorney Jack Harley needs an opportunity. He’s just left a high-status firm and is determined to get his life back on track by opening a private practice. His first client, a woman being sexually harassed at work, gives him the chance to take on a case that matters. When a sexy brunette mistakes his new office for a recently relocated escort service and challenges him to help her uncover what turns her on, he thinks he can have it all. But soon he discovers telling Elizabeth the truth of who he is will compromise his case. Protect and seek justice for his client—that’s the promise he’d made himself. Now it’s time to win the case, even if, for him, it means losing what he really wants.

I started reading this book thinking it was going to be a typical guy meets girl story, following along with their romance; observing any ups and downs within their blossoming relationship. This book however is far from typical and it is a lot raunchier than expected.
I rooted for Jack & Elizabeth the entire way through this book, hoping that their chemistry would result in them finding a perfect relationship with each other.
The story is told with split perspectives; so you get to see things from both characters point of view and you get to hear what both parties are thinking. This is one of my favourite parts of the book, because you can see how the two characters truly feel, rather than relying on solely their actions/words as described by the other person.
I personally would have liked an extra chapter or two, or even an epilogue to cover what happens next for Jack & Elizabeth, but overall a really good read, definitely worth four stars.
This was a super fun, sexy read. I could have easily enjoyed another hundred pages. The characters are well written and I loved the development and flow of the story.
This book I found on Netgalley has a much different cover. I also found out that it was originally released ten years ago. The female character Elizabeth Sewell is an accountant and is a person that has her life on a plan. She has everything working so far and she is looking at making partner in the firm if she can land this one account. What she does not have is a man or any type of love life. She feels she has no game, she cannot flirt. So Elizabeth does what she thinks would solve the problem and that is, she decides to hire a male escort. When she arrives at the office she finds a man named Jack Harley. They hit it off right away and he tells her he will pick her up that night. He arrives later on his Harley and she finds herself actually excited. The night goes better than she thought. What she does not know is that Jack is not an escort but an attorney who has relocated and did not have any information on his door. The story takes off between them and of course, comes to a point when she finds out the truth when she goes to court with a friend. Can she really now walk away from what she was actually looking for at the beginning? It appears so. Read this fun story to see what happens.
The story of Elizabeth and Jack. A case of mistaken identity when she makes him an offer thinking he is a male escort. He doesn't put her right as her wants to take her out on a date, but then the longer he keeps the truth from her, the more difficult it is to tell her.
I liked how it is told from both of their points of view.
An entertaining read!
I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
Ok so full disclosure; I would not have requested this book if this image had been the title page. The one of Netgalley was cartoonish and seemed a bit more chick lit style.
BUT I’m glad I did read it. It was more steamy than I anticipated, but nothing wrong with that. I liked Elizabeth as a character - although her constant daydreaming, even when her friends are saying something important bugged me a bit. I felt the character of Jack could have been developed more but the female characters were interesting.
The storyline was a hit too - I’ve enjoyed books like The Kiss Quotient recently and this out even more of a spin on the whole Pretty Woman storyline. I found myself invested in Elizabeth’s job, especially when she was trying to land a client she desperately needed to prove her worth.
Overall a good read and while I wouldn’t usually go for this kind of book (especially based on this photographic cover), I’m glad I had a chance to give it a go!
