I adore the premise of this book--two men find love when one incurs a gambling debt he can't pay and offers to make good by being the other man's sexual fantasy for a month. Of course, they catch feelings, and the rest of the cast is a ton of fun.

This was incredibly fun to read - I love characters who lie, and so two siblings who try to win the attention of rich partners while omitting the truth about their own backstory? VERY good. The dynamic between the main pairing was amazing -- I wasn't expecting to enjoy it so much, I love a good buildup, and the absolute delight when things truly culminated between the two? DELICIOUS. 

Honestly, it would be 5 stars, but I was left with so much wanting to read more of their flirtations. I found it went from
sexual relationship to quicklyish romantic and I would have liked to see more of that growth, even if Robin himself admits he cares too much too quickly. Alas. It was juicy anyway.
