A past tragedy has left Lily Holmes burdened with a devastating secret
Since the death of her twin sister, Lily cant bear to be touched. Not accidentally, not casuallyand certainly not intimately. This makes it impossible for her to confess to her best friend Adam Roberts that shes in love with him. She cant give him the sort of relationship he needs, so she watches in silence while he plans his wedding with someone else.
Enter Nikoli Kinkaid, the campus manwhore
Nikoli is a self-proclaimed connoisseur of women, and he wants to add Lily to his list of conquests, but she wants nothing to do with him-until he makes her an offer she cant refuse. Hell teach her to enjoy human contact again, giving her a chance to win over Adam, while Nikoli uses all his considerable charm to seduce her.
But Lily raises the stakes
Lily loves cars. Her late father was a racer, and she grew up under the hood of a car and on the racetrack. Nikoli has a limited edition car she covets, so she informs him the terms of their deal also require he not sleep with anyone for six months. If he does, shell win the car. If she surrenders and ends up in his bed, his beloved Cuda is his to keep.
In an intricate dance of control and surrender, a reluctant friendship becomes something more. Lily begins to crave things she never believed she could, and Nikoli realizes there is more at stake than his reputation.
If Lily overcomes her phobia, will she crave Adams touch as shes starting to crave Nikolis? Or will she only find pleasure from the touch of a semi-reformed manwhore?
