Title: Gentleman Nine

Author: Penelope Ward

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: February 17, 2018

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward, comes a new, sexy standalone novel.

Growing up, the three of us were friends.
He was the nerd.
I was the playboy.
She was the beauty.

Deep down, I only ever wanted her. I kept it inside because Rory and I made a pact that our friend, Amber, was off-limits.

He lied.

I went off to college, and he got the girl.
Amber never knew how I felt.
They were together for years—before he broke her heart.

Through it all and across the miles, she and I casually stayed in touch.
When my job sent me to Boston for a three-month contract position, Amber let me stay in her spare room.

Still reeling from her breakup, she’d sworn off men.
One night, I opened her computer to find the shock of my life. She’d hesitantly contacted a male escort company. Afraid to date and get her heart broken again, she was looking for sex with no strings.
Every emotion imaginable ran through me: protectiveness, jealousy—curiosity.
Amber had chosen Gentleman Number Nine and sent him a message.
She opened up to him, confessing, among other things, her physical attraction to her friend—me. But she considered me off-limits—and she thought I was a manwhore. (Ironic, considering the circumstances.)

Eventually, she set up a date to meet Gentleman Nine at a hotel. 
When she showed up several nights later to meet him, she was stunned to see me standing there—with an offer I hoped she wouldn’t refuse.

Yeah….I have a crush on Channing and how am I to continue onto my next read when all I want to do is read about him and Amber??

Y’all Gentleman Nine was such a great book-G9 is what it’s called when you are in the know you will learn this while reading..haha

”I reluctantly and secretly crushed on Channing. For one reason or another, he was always off-limits.

When I first met him, he’d been my best friend’s big brother. Off-limits

Then, our relationship evolved into a friendship I valued. Off-limits.

Crossing the line with Channing wasn’t a possibility, especially after I fell in love with his best friend……”
