Pierce Lancaster is bad news.

Spoiled.

Entitled.

Sexy as —

He’s exactly what I don’t want in my life. What I don't need. I’m not the girl he knew before. I’ve changed. But he hasn’t. He’s trouble filled with empty promises. I’ve come too far to fall back. Yet I can’t seem to stay away. I can’t say no.

I am addicted to Pierce Lancaster.

Loved the characters of this book. They are so broken and so rich!! It goes to show you that money sure doesn’t buy happiness and that even the wealthy have problems. Sometimes they have more.

The kids of the really wealthy don’t really need to work. Their parents do and their older brothers take over the family business and you just collect money and party. And when I say party I mean drugs alcohol and women/men!

Pierce & Lindsay are pretty much the same people. Rich partiers. Then things happen and they are forced to change their lives. On one hand it’s hard to feel sorry for them - they have had everything hand to them. On the other it makes my problems seem petty. They truly are broken and damaged - from childhood thru to adulthood.

I really enjoyed this book very much. The writing and the characters are awesome. I’m still a little confused about the title. There really isn’t anything Explicit about this book. The sex is barely above a YA book, there is little cussing, there are some heavy subject matters but all in all its probably me just not getting it.

I did LOVE the book!!!

Highly Recommend!!

“Hey, I never got a taste,” Pierce exclaims.
“Oops.” I smile innocently. “There’s none left. Maybe next time.”
Before I know it, he’s leaning into me. Into my personal space, he’s so close I’m dizzy. Our gazes are locked. My breath comes out ragged and harsh from being this close to him. What is he doing?
He answers my unspoken question by taking my hand in his. My heart hammers heavily in my chest as it lifts. The feel of his fingers on me is hot and heady, the memories that are imprinted on my mind resurfacing to the forefront of my brain. I remember everything.
We stare at each other.
Neither speaking.
The seconds pass, but it feels like everything is on pause as I wait to see what he will do. The boys talking in the background is a steady buzz against the pounding in my chest.
He lifts.
Thud.
Closer.
Thud.
His tongue juts out, and he swipes the tip of my finger where the cream from the filling has collected. Before I can think, he places it in his mouth and eats the rest.
“Ewwwww,” rings out through the room. The sound of the boys gagging pulls me out of my haze.
“What are you doing?”
“Having dessert.” He winks. His emerald green eyes twinkling with mischief.
He’s too close. Too damn close. I remember what his lips feel like against my skin. Decadent. Like the first bite of a macaron.
Sinful.
I need to get away.
