Book #6 of a 6 Book Series
Book Summary:
I met Bianca in an elevator.
She was on her way to interview me when we got stuck.
The beautiful raven-haired reporter assumed I was a delivery guy because of the way I was dressed.
She had no clue I was really Dex Truitt, the wealthy, successful businessman she’d dubbed “Mister Moneybags”―her afternoon appointment.
Bianca told me how much she hated Dex’s type―snobby, over educated, silver-spooned men who didn’t appreciate the simple things in life.
So, after the elevator finally started moving again, I cancelled the interview and let her believe I was someone I wasn’t―a bike messenger named Jay. I loved the way she looked at the fake me and didn’t want it to end.
I began dating her as “Jay”―all the while letting her interview the real me over email.
I didn’t expect that our chemistry online would be just as hot.
I didn’t expect the mess I’d gotten myself into.
I didn’t expect that Jay and Dex would fall in love with her.
And she was falling for two men.
Only, both men were me.
And when she found out, we were both going to lose her.
Nothing could have prepared me for that day. And I certainly wasn’t prepared for what came after.
All good things must come to an end, right?
Except our ending was one I didn’t see coming.
My Review:
I would say if I had to pick my two favorite books in this series, Cocky Bastard would be #1 and this one would be #2. This book was absolutely hilarious! Dex’s spiral of deception to get the girl knew no bounds! The fact that he was threatened by himself (or rather his alter ego Jay) and what he endured to keep up the lie made the first quarter of the book go by in a flash.
The chemistry between Bianca and Dex was kept just above deliciously hot. The sexual tension and almost moments were enough to keep the spice front and center. I think my favorite thing of all was Chance popping up again. I swear he is the Stan Lee equivalent in this series, you just never know how they are going to work him in but it’s so good to get an indirect update on how he is doing. I will definitely say the twist in this book was more on the deviant side and made you really question the limitations and boundaries of love. Their situation is one I hadn’t read before and knowing it was an HEA and would work out, you were still faced with the uncomfortable possibility – especially when Dex justified that no matter the outcome, things for him would not change.
I did love the ending and the homage he paid to a very important person in his life. Oh, can’t forget Bandit! Loved that dog!
