by Lane HartPublish: Feb 09, 2015Series: Gambling With LoveContemporary RomanceBook Overview
A best friend's sister romance.Julie Reavis thinks the sorority sluts at her expensive Liberal Arts private school are all idiots. For some reason, they've wrongly mislabeled Dylan, her brother Will's long-time best friend (all six feet, four inches of his buff, blonde, Greek god-like gorgeousness) as being gay. However, she doesn't mind using their mistake to make Dylan an indecent proposal.
After an embarrassing incident with a smoking hot frat boy, sexually inexperienced Jules asks Dylan to educate her in the bedroom, showing her how to be sexier and more desired by men. In exchange for his help, she'll pretend to be his girlfriend, including throwing in a few PDAs in front of the sorority sluts he's been lusting after for months.
Millionaire Dylan Daughtry is tired of dealing with greedy gold diggers, but he's desperate to get laid. He's so desperate that he considers going behind his best friend Will's back to teach his little sister, Jules, the art of pleasuring men in exchange for her help "getting out of the closet" and squashing rumors about his sexuality.
Dylan surrenders to the temptation of Jules's offer, and they immediately start off her sex-ed with a bang. Dylan had no idea that the sweet, shy, and innocent Jules he's known almost his whole life is a sexy little exhibitionist, or that he'd instantly become addicted to her. Now, he's irrationally jealous of the frat boy he's supposed to be helping Jules get. Dylan just can't stop thinking about her and their sexual escapades. And suddenly, the idea of Jules "experimenting" with anyone but him between the sheets, in elevators, or in parking lots turns him into a possessive, half-crazed madman.
Jules is everything Dylan's been looking for, and he knows without a doubt he'll never be able to trust any woman the way he does her. She could care less about his money, and refuses to let him spend a penny of it on her. Despite how much he wants her, he also knows his best friend will never approve of him going after his little sister, so Dylan decides to just make Jules his sexy little secret.
Jules is falling helplessly in love with Dylan, even though she knows he only sees her as a temporary booty call, part of their indecent proposal to help each other out. After Dylan's assurance that he wants more, she wonders if it's possible that he could actually be falling for her, too. She has her doubts since Dylan made it clear that he doesn't have any plans of telling her brother the truth about what the two of them have been doing behind his back.
Despite their sneaking around, Will eventually catches Dylan and Jules in the act. He's quick to call bullshit on Dylan's confession of love and is sure he'll end up breaking Jules's heart sooner rather than later. Will's prediction comes true when a secret Dylan has been keeping from Will and Jules is uncovered and made public, leaving Jules crushed beyond repair. Dylan suddenly realizes that the most important things in life can never be bought, even with his millions. Now he'll have to figure out a way to beg for forgiveness after hurting the one person he'd give away his entire fortune to have.
