"One-night stands are supposed to be with someone convenient, or wickedly persuasive or regrettable. They aren't supposed to be with someone like him.

But after a crazy Vegas weekend celebrating her college graduation- and terrified of the future path she knows is a copout- Mia Holland makes the wildest decision of her life: follow Ansel Guillaume- her sweet, filthy fling- to France for the summer and just... play.

When feelings begin to develop behind the provocative roles they take on, and their temporary masquerade adventures begin to feel real, Mia will have to decide if she belongs in the life she left because it was all wrong, or in the strange new one that seems worlds away."

My Rating: 3.75/5

This is my first (what I would consider) New Adult novel. And it was really something. Exactly what I needed at the time but not full of a ton of substance. I really enjoyed the interactions between the female characters at the start of the novel and the way they were building each other up (alway something to celebrate while reading). That being said there was a use of a vengeful ex-girlfriend, not a troupe I hate, also not my favourite. The smut scenes were well written just not really my particular cup of tea. I also found that the conflict resolution was lacking, as to be expected, to make for a happy ending. I'm looking forward to reading the other books in this series and getting to see some of the side characters.

Thanks for reading,

Sidny
