Parker

This pro hockey thing is amazing! I’m playing in the big leagues. I have money for a change. And suddenly all the men who wouldn’t give me the time of day are falling all over themselves to hook up with me.

The only problem is that I’ve never been with anyone. That’s just what I need—some random hookup leaking it to the press that I’m a virgin who’s lousy in bed.

Maybe what I need is a little help from a professional.

Cole

Clients who want to lose their virginity are a dime a dozen. There’s something about Parker, though. Something that makes my heart go a little wild every time he books me, and it isn’t the money.

He’s better in bed than he thinks. He needs confidence, not guidance, and I’m happy to give him both.

But is it wrong to wish he’ll never stop coming back?

This is the second book in the series and I’m all ready for it….. since I enjoyed meeting Ethan and Luca in book one! In book two we meet Parker, a young player brought in for the new season….Like most young men he is a little star struck and a lotta green……especially in the sex dept.

Parker has a swagger, having a few bucks in his pocket and now in the big leagues….But what he lacks is how to perform in bed!! Gay and a virgin….Groan…Adorable Parker has his own worries that now if he meets a guy and takes him home he could be the laughing stock in the morning in the tabloids…Maybe what I need is a little help from a professional.

Enter Cole, who also is working for The Gentlemen’s Club of Emeralds City and who certainly has helped other young men lose their virginity. L.A. Witt gets an A plus for setting up this truly sweet love story. I also loved that Ethan and Luca could be their friends.

I admit freely I am a lover of Ms Witt’s writing and humor and cannot wait to continue onto the next story……
