*** Mace ***

I own an exclusive escort service for high-end girls and high-rollers. I'm having my best year ever and life is fan-f**king-tastic.

Until the day my smoking hot stepsister, Alyssa, waltzes in for a job and strips off her clothes.

What the f*** is she doing here, saying her name is Carly Olson? Now I'm entirely obsessed with her, and I can't get her out of my mind. I want her or no woman at all.

*** Alyssa ***

I'm a hardworking, studious good girl, an honors student at Princeton.

My sexy-as-hell stepbrother, Mace, is an ass. A cocky, skirt-chasing, testosterone driven MMA fighter who makes millions doing things he won't talk about. He walked out of my life on the day of our parents' funeral, and I definitely don't want to let him back in.

So, when I'm drowning in student debt and about to lose my scholarship, why do I find myself asking for his help? And why am I so willing to follow him into his shadow world? My virginity is a valuable commodity and I've given him control of it. I only hope he realizes he wants me for himself, before he auctions my virtue away to a wealthy stranger.

***HEA and no cheating ***
