. . I’m fed up. Fed up with love . . . men . . . all of it. Why? Because all I seem to do is attract guys who are only interested in taking my virginity than meeting my emotional needs. I’m just about to lock myself in a room with my vibrator for the rest of my days, when I agree to one last blind date. I don’t have high hopes. Not until I see him. Tall, dark, and handsome, this Elijah guy seems like he may be the one man to restore my faith in happily-ever-after. But ‘too good to be true’ is right, because another man shows up and calls Elijah—by a different name. And it turns out my date . . . isn’t my date at all. Now I’m humiliated by not one, but two, gorgeous men. They tell me it’s a simple misunderstanding. They beg me to hear them out and stay, but I refuse to be embarrassed any longer. I don’t EVER want to see them again—except I do. Because now they’ve hired my catering services for their business events. They’re charming and totally alpha, and the longer we’re around each other, the harder it is for me to hang onto my virginity. I never thought I’d find the one man meant for me. Because it turns out, there just might be two. The Virgins Double Bosses is a red-hot read about your favorite kind of threesome... in the mansion. If you like bossy alpha males who’ll make your heart melt, this book is for you!
