Thank you @jacklynparkerwrites for this arc.
This was a 6⭐️ read! Please check your trigger warnings, your mental health matters! I prefer to normally go in blind.
I have loved the prior two books in this series, The Bloke, and The Stallion, but alas, I have to say that The Gentlemen won my heart!
This follows our MMC identical twin brothers Lucas and Levi, and our FMC Tessa.
Levi and Lucas are the owners of the club Pulse, a night club with cage dancers and another floors for more. While Lucas is on tour with The Men Under Review he meets Tessa, a very popular and an awarded actress, and falls for her. Tessa leaves while he's in the shower and runs to Vegas to get away from her life, that she feels does not permit her to be who she really is.
Unbeknownst to Tessa, who takes on the persona of Evie and wears a pink wig, she meets Levi when she applies to be a dancer at their club. She believes Levi is actually the man she met at the show, but it was actually Lucas wearing Levi's shoes. She just thought that he did not know who she is because of the wig.
There is a lot that happens in this book, so you definitely should RUN NOT WALK to get this book and read it! I cannot wait to hear this in audio!
Just some of my favorite quotes:
“You, my princess, are the piece we’ve been missing—the one thing my brother and I have desired so deeply but could never find the right woman to claim the position. We didn’t believe we ever would.”
“I don’t need to act around you.” Switching our positions, I rolled us to pin Tessa on the bed, taking her hands in mine as I interlaced our fingers and slid them along the sheets until they were resting above her head. “Not when you make my life feel more like a dream.” “Just don’t ever wake me.”
“And before you even think it… I do care about my brother’s feelings. You aren’t the first woman we’ve shared, but you are and will be the last.”
