Boyfriend for Hire — Gail Chianese

In this sexy series, author Gail Chianese celebrates the heart -- and the heat -- of modern dating. This time, a temporary boyfriend may be the right man for a permanent position…

The only girl in a family of three brothers, Tawny Torres has had enough of waiting on men. She has her life and her career all mapped out, and neither includes an apron, an iron, or a husband -- yet. But when a new job emphasizes a healthy balance of work and play, she needs a guy to stand in as her love interest at a company picnic. Gorgeous charmer David “King of Pleasure” Farber fits the bill perfectly -- so well that Tawny is shocked to realize she's having a hard time letting him go…

David's a confirmed bachelor, but he can't get enough of Tawny's firecracker combination of tough and tender. Unfortunately, he's overloaded with work at his construction firm and now definitely isn't the time for distraction -- he struggles enough with that already. Still, he can't ignore his feelings for Tawny. He'll just have to convince her that he's more than a boyfriend-for-hire. And she'll have to prove he can trust her with his biggest secret…
