Gentleman Nine
(A standalone)
Penelope Ward
Release date: 2/19/2018
A Contemporary Romance Novel



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 got the surprise of her life to see me standing there-with an offer I hoped she wouldn't refuse.
