Can a virgin be a whore? I guess it depends on your definition of the word. Working a minimum wage job, I was struggling to save up money for college. Things were tight but I was managaing to scrape by. At least I had a roof over my head, right? Wrong. My mother was moving on to husband number five and decided to sell the house without giving me notice. The bank took care of that with a thirty day grace period.
Taylor Ross walked into the coffee shop where I worked and offered me the perfect solution. His father was a regular customer and apparently thought highly enough of my service to mention me in his will. I couldn't just take money but when offered me a job with a great salary including room and board, how could I refuse? I didn't know at the time just what services Taylor thought I'd offered his father.
He wanted me to embrace my inner whore and in return my financial worries would be over. There was only one problem. I had no idea what that meant. Taylor was willing to train me, so the only real question was what was I willing to do to have everything my heart desired?
I didn't expect to like this book as much as I did. The cover was not one that if I ever saw it on a shelf at the book store that I would pick up and read. The blurb is what got my attention. So many times we find ourselves calling someone a "Whore" for so many different reasons. But really, what is a Whore??
Laura is just working her normal day job at the coffee house when Taylor Ross comes in asking questions about one of her customers. Turns out that the customer is his dad and it turns our that he has passed away and left Laura to be taken care of as part of his will. Taylor offers her an offer she can't resist as his personal assistant and a place to live. Laura is not in the position to say no. Her mom is getting married for the 5th time and forgot to tell her that she has not been paying on the house.
I had a hard time getting to know Laura. One minute she is strong willed and straight to the point. The next moment she is acting like a little girl with an infatuation with her boss and fawning all over him. I didn't know which Laura was the real one. I can say that once these two get together the sex is HOT. Taylor may know what to do to buy companies, but he sure does know what to do in the bedroom too, and the limo, and the plane.....I think you get the idea.
While you are reading this, you can see how the two of them evolve into different people just because of the other. I thought that the end was a bit abrupt...but in the long run it was a fun, quick read.
Michelle Hughes began her career in writing as a paranormal romance author. In 2009 she released her first book, A Night at Tears of Crimson. In 2011 she was hit with an idea for a romance that had nothing to do with vampires and readers seemed to relate more to the alpha male and virgin romances, so she continued along that line.
Prior to a career in writing she was a singer/songwriter who performed all over the US with a satellite syndicated talent showcase as their host. Michelle lives in Alabama with her husband and five children. Writing is her second love with family always being first. If you’d like to find out more about Michelle, please visit her links.
