"This is your lucky night. I just happen to be wearing black silk boxers." That was exactly the kind of confirmation Lydia Carmichael was looking for. Proof positive that the drop-dead gorgeous date provided by Mr. Complete Escort Services was a gigolo. All she had to do was lure that bad boy into her bed and she'd put the slimeballs out of business. But Lydia soon learned she wasn't cut out for this kind of under-the-covers work. Luke was not only hot with a capital H, he was also a considerate, caring man. As she discovered, there was a lot more beneath the surface than his sexy underwear and she found herself wanting to leave her tidy white-cotton life behind. If her secret wishes could come true, their bought-and-paid-for beginning would lead to a happily-ever-after ending that had nothing to do with money and everything to do with love.

enjoyable gender battle

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Lydia Carmichael is irate because she believes her beloved Aunt Tempera was wronged by L.J. Reynolds's Mr. Complete Escort Service. Her aunt's escort took advantage of a lonely female who fell in love with the gigolo. Lydia filed a complaint with the police and decides she must personally take action by going undercover as a client to expose this firm as a "sex for hire" male prostitution company.
NYPD Detective Parker informs Mr. Complete Escort Service owner Luke Reynolds that another complaint was filed against his company involving a charge of illicit sex. Luke tells the cop that he fired the escort for that reason as he runs a clean operation. Luke knows his foster brother and business rival Rhew Burgess, owner of At Your Service, has caused his recent woes. However, he overhears Lydia's tirade and plan when she speaks in a public place to a friend. He decides to go along with her ploy as her escort, but finds himself incredibly attracted to Lydia, but if she fails to reciprocate any move he makes it will affirm her belief that he is running a criminal operation.
Though the use of coincidence in which the two protagonists have meetings at the same time in Danny's Bar and Grill, fans will enjoy this gender battle between two wonderful lead characters. The story line is at its best when Luke is not sure whether to trust Lydia with his feelings for her because she proclaimed to her friend she planned to shut down his business and put him behind bars. Yet he cannot walk away as he finds his attraction for her overwhelming. Humorous and hunk heaven, Sheridon Smythe spins a delightful tale.

Well, wowzers! I have never read any books by Sheridon Smythe, but after reading Mr. Complete, I will be reading more of her. From when I picked this book up, till I finished it, I couldnt put it down. It was funny, oh so funny! I couldnt stop laughing. How I love stories like this one. I liked the supporting characters and the plot was great. When Lydia and Luke got together the sparks just flew, and it was hot. My cheeks got red. This has been one of the best books that I have read in a while. I will be getting more, and I hope they are as good as this book is. Seems to me from the reviews on her books, you either love them or dont. I fall into the "do" category. this is going on my keeper shelf. I highly recommend this book. Great story.

Ok, I have to admit that I didn't finish the book so maybe things got alot better but boy, I sure doubt it! The premise was just so incredibly cheesy I simply couldn't force myself to finish.
The hero of the story runs a male escort business and strangely his step brother runs a rival escort business (I suppose an "evil twin" would have been too obvious). When one of his employees seduces a patron and the police come calling, Hero man thinks that snotty step-brother may have arranged the whole illegal transaction in order to run the rival brother out of business.
The sweet and attractive neice of the poor seduction victim decides to help the police bring down the male prostitution ring. Somehow as she is talking about her plan to call for an escort in the hopes that she will be able to prove the man is a gigalo, Hero Man over hears her and waits for her call. He decides that he should escort her himself and so the incredibly juvinile story begins.
If I were writing a sitcom about a laughable romance novelist, this is the book she'd be working on in episode one. By the second episode though, I hope she'd do a little better.
