Description

What do tequila, furry handcuffs, shame, and a 6' 2" hot man with a black eye all have in common?

They were all in my bed last night.

Well, shame was there this morning.

My a*****e roommate up and moved out and rented her "room" to some guy her brother's coworker's cousin "knows really well." The aforementioned roommate thinks we'll get on like a house on fire. I tell her I don't think anything related to fire is a good thing. Especially as this guy and I will now quite literally be sharing the same room, with a divider for "privacy."

Sounds bad, right? Well, it gets worse.

Ethan Huntington is the most annoying, frustrating know-it-all, pompous jerk I've ever met. I did try to be open and ask him about himself when he moved in. But his responses consisted of, "Ask me no questions and I'll tell you no lies." Yeah, okay. Cue major eye rolls as I walked away from him. It only made me angrier when I heard him laughing as I slammed the door as if he'd gotten the last laugh.

He thinks he's God's gift to women just because he's hot. I can't lie: I've seen him without his shirt, and let's just say he got more than my heart racing. But that doesn't mean I'll succumb to him. No way.

Well, that was the plan. Until that night. When we decided to play a few rounds of cards and we drank way too much. Sure, we had one night. But that's all it's going to be. I'm not going to let my one-night mistake stop me from going out and meeting Mr. Right—even if Ethan is still living with me and I can't get him out of my mind.

And then the first letter arrived and changed everything. Maybe that one-night mistake was just the beginning of something really special.

    It’s a slow start but it pulls you in and your hooked! I highly recommend getting comfy this series is great! I especially loved the sarcasm, sassiness, humor and all around playfulness of these two characters! You can’t take the sexy undercover billionaire too seriously while he breaks down the walls of his new English roommate!
  • Very good story

    It’s the usual opposite sex roommate situation that turns into more. However, this was such a fun read that kept you turning the pages for more. It’s sweet, funny, sexy, and they both can be a bit salty. There’s some cameo moments from book 1 but this can be read as a stand-alone.

    This was a great romance with a comical part. The storyline was great. The banter was funny. The friendship was fun to read. I love the drama and thought it was overall a great read.

    What a fun read, as it always gets complicated when friends have benefits. These two have a great friendship and good chemistry together, many lol moments make this an enjoyable book. An interesting mystery of embezzlement and zinging banter will have Ethan and Molly fighting their attraction. A wonderful romance book with intrigue and humor. I am voluntarily leaving a review for this book that I received free.

    This is book two to the Complicated Benefits series and it’s Ethan and Molly’s story. Ethan is a billionaire, who goes undercover to help his brother at the family business. His brother bets him that he can’t live within his means of his work paycheck and not depend on his billions. Molly moved from London to New York for a low paying job, struggling to make ends meet. Ethan becomes Molly’s roommate in a studio apartment in New York. They have crazy chemistry from the moment they meet, but they fight it. I love the banter between them. Had me telling them to get together already. Couldn’t put the book down. Had to find out when they finally get together. This is another one of her books I couldn’t put down.

    What a witty take on two people who are both trying hard to fight love. Then how they find themselves in a complicated situation that just could ultimately lead them to the one person they each never saw coming. Ethan is a heart throb and would never have thought a girl like Molly would have sparked a desire for him, but she does and he can’t resist. Molly is stubborn and refuses to admit how turned on that Ethan makes her. She lets all her fury for other reasons drive her, but will the chemistry these two have just be too much to keep them apart? Will they end up having a one night hook up and then call it quits? Will Molly find her Prince Charming that she wants, someone who gets her and likes her for who she is. The banter between these two is something you don’t want to me. You will catch yourself having to read until you get to the very end. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

    Molly and Ethan were a fun duo to get to know. From their first meeting, the chemistry was there and the way the end up living together was not what I saw happening. This is a true story of how love is the most important thing in life. Money and power can be good but love is the ultimate gift and holds the most joy and power.

At first molly can’t stand Ethan, but slowly he grows on her. Will they be able to last the three months living together?

    I enjoyed reading this book. These two really clicked with each other. She is British, here on a visa for a job. He is a private investigator currently under cover for a job. They end up sharing a small studio apartment. It doesn't take long for them to fall for each other. Good read.
