Tessa Hartley has a great job, a great condo and a great life. What she needs is a great boyfriend—someone who will help her repair her image after the last loser she took home, to be her plus-one at her sister’s wedding. Also, said sister is marrying Tessa’s ex. Yep. Without time to date, she follows a friend’s advice to use an escort service. Why not rent a hot man for a long weekend?

Maverick James wants to prove to his parents his twin brother is not up for the task of stepping up to rule the company. When he learns his brother is moonlighting as an escort, he figures he’s got the best opportunity to expose him. But a curvy redhead makes him think twice about his plan. She expects him to accompany her to Hawaii for a weekend—fine with him. But when she explains sleeping together isn’t part of the deal, he’s eager to show her just how talented he really is.

When Tessa’s friend talks her into hiring a date for her sister’s wedding to her ex, she’s going to get more than she bargained for.

DJ aka Dillon James has taken the job, but that was before his older brother showed up and discovered his sideline job. Maverick, in order to save the family reputation, heads out to the airport to cancel this whole thing. However when he meets Tessa he somehow can’t seem to leave her in a lurch.

Maverick starts to fall for Tessa and she is falling for him too. It’s when his true nature comes out that things start to go haywire.

This is a fun and interesting take on the wedding escort. There’s sizzling heat between these two, and they both discover things about themselves.

I can’t wait to see what Carmen comes up with next for this series.

Carmen Falcone

Carmen Falcone learned at an early age that fantasizing about fictional characters beat doing math homework any day. Brazilian by birth and traveler by nature, she moved to Central Texas after college and met her broody Swiss husband–living proof that opposites attract.

She found in writing her deepest passion and the best excuse to avoid the healthy lifestyle everyone keeps talking about. When she’s not lost in the world of romance, she enjoys spending time with her two kids, being walked by her three crazy pugs, reading, catching up with friends, and chatting with random people in the checkout line.

She loves to procrastinate, so please indulge her and drop her a line. For more info, visit her website.
