But when you accidentally sleep with someone like Abell Birch, notorious billionaire player...
Walking away isn't easy.
He's perfectly gorgeous, perfectly filthy. Tattoos cover every inch of his muscles, his eyes can burn right through you, and his lips know just where to kiss. A real complete package. The exact kind of manwhore I hate. So when my parents pulled out that marriage contract, I thought they were joking.
Marry him? I don't care how loud he made me beg that one night we spent together. I never want to see his sinful smile again.
But if I don't marry him, I'll lose my company. I'll lose... everything. It's pure blackmail.
Either way, he doesn't care what I want. Because he plans to put that ring on my finger...
A USA Today Bestselling Author, Nora Flite lives in Burbank, California where the weather is warm and she doesn't have to shovel snow—something she never grew to love in her tiny home-state of Rhode Island. All of her romances involve passionate, filthy, and slightly obsessive heroes.
I loved this book! I didn't expect this book to be so good and the worst part was that I didn't looked at how many pages there are and when I reached the end...obviously this is a short and sweet book. So excited to find a new author.
I didn't look at the number of pages when I started this book and, when, instead of "Chapter X" it said "Epilogue", I was pretty surprised. It was a nice book, I liked the idea (even though it wasn't anything special, it was pretty cute). There were a lot of inconsistencies, the main characters changed their personality overnight, they were pretty strangely built and I can't say that I liked them. Despite the... not very good characters, I liked the story. It was cute. And it didn't bore me, didn't make me skim pages, didn't make me want to check the pages I have left. So, it's nothing special, but it's nice, it catches you pretty early on and you stay hooked 'til the end.

This book is hot, sensual, filled with mystery and some mild suspense. Abell and Nix met at a concert. There was this instant attraction. They ended up saving a fellow concert person goer, then went go smashed and had a wild one night stand. The next morning Nix wakes up , realizes she is going to be late and has to literally run to make it to a meeting to her parents’ company. She leaves behind Abell , who she thinks she will never see again but not so fast- he walks into the meeting she is having with her parents and their guest. The guest her parents had was his dad and he was part of the meeting –Nix is thrown for a loop when she finds out that she and Abell are part of business transaction their parents agreed upon years ago. A contract that is so hard to break, Nix is struggling. Abell is not sure what is going on but he is unhappy with the turn of events. These two people come together and find their souls meld as one. They see they are more in tune with each other than what they thought, they have more in common than they originally thought and though they started out disliking each other, Abell’s dislike, Nix’s hate turned into love and the tough road they were on paved out into a great path of love. OMG I loved this story- there was some really super great moments in the story—the ending of this book is great. And I hope Gram gets his own book, because he deserves one. I have to say, both sets of parents are horrible and deserve to come to a bitter end. Which is why I hope Gram definitely gets his own book so I can find out how he deals with his father. Nix and Abell’s love story will have you in stiches, will have you ooohhing and awwwing and will have you wanting an encore. The author has written a very beautiful love story which has a lovely flow that , I , as the reader didn’t want to end.
My rating: 4.7 stars ****
***A gifted copy was provided by the author for my honest review****
A bad boy waiting to be loved? Yes, please! ;o) This title drew me in like a flame to a lovesick moth. It has a very lively rhythm thanks to the double point of view between bad boy extraordinaire Abell and ambitious, feisty redhead Nix.
I loved both characters because he has an easy charm that covers up his deep wounds and she's smart and doesn't yield easily. Still, passion and honesty are powerful forces that finally bend them to need each other beyond their respective parents' evil deeds.
And that was really interesting! The plot that coerces them into a marriage of convenience was mysterious, appealing and emotional. Though the best part was the witty dialogues and the sweet and spicy situations they found themselves in.
I undoubtedly enjoyed the whole story because it's well written, deliciously sexy and, above all, the romance involves two characters who grow into something new together, stronger and free. Through the arrangement, they discover secrets about their families that nudge them to finally acknowledge what's been boiling inside them, that they love more than they thought possible. It had a very satisfying, fun and hot ending. Lovely story and a great way to discover a new author to add to my list of sure-reads.
Loved Abell and Nix's story. They are hot , hot together and the book has lots of twist and turns and it kept me reading it until the early morning hours.. This author never disappoints me. Always look forward to her books.

5.THE BAD BOY ARRANGEMENT(AUTHOR) *** A copy of this book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review*** Bad Boys Are My Fave!!! I’m really glad I was able to read this wonderful story who doesn’t love a bad boy? Especially one as sexy as Abell! Abell stumbles upon Nix at a concert when he goes to her rescue as she is interfering a fight between a couple in attendance. They end up having a couple of drinks too many and have a very passionate one night stand. The next morning Nix wakes up and realizes she is running late to meet her parents so she leaves Abell, she never expected to see him again after all what are the odds it’s a big city and they didn’t share any personal information. It was a meaningless, sexy as hell yet unforgettable one night stand or so she thought…As she arrives at her meeting with her parents they have a very special guest in attendance and guess who the second mystery guest is? Who just happens to be running late as well by the way, none other than the attractive and fascinating ABELL. Nix is basically tossed into a business transaction that has already taken place between her parents and Abell’s father, a contract that will bind Nix and Abell forever if they both agree that is. Abell is just as confused as Nix he doesn’t comprehend how his father had the audacity to make such a deal with Nix’s parents but then again he has never had his father’s support. Nix and Abell’s dislike for what is going on decide to come to an agreement that will benefit them both and decide to fulfill the arrangement, they soon realize it’s harder than they thought their attraction is lurking behind each interaction and they can’t help but find that they share similarities. Their initial hate relationship has blossomed into something more , I couldn’t help but love Abell’s dedication to make their arrangement work , but for their sake because he knew they shared more than the dumb contract expected of them, he wanted Nix and vice versa. I really enjoyed this story the characters developed into stronger individuals despite the secrecy surrounding their arrangement and finally allowed their hearts to dictate their true fate. Wonderful read!
Can we can dysfunctional? We had not one but two families that were this and more. Sexy, ripped, tattooed and stinking rich Abell was every girls dream and nightmare all rolled into one. He would bed anything that moved just to help forget his very sad childhood. The story that brought Abell to leave his family at 16 was heart breaking. Then we have the very curvy, fiery redhead Nix who grew up running a family company that was worth millions. You would think that she could want for nothing but with brutal parents who didn’t lift a hand to her physically but she had a mother who did justice to the term verbal abuse, she had grown up without any real love and support. It was amazing that she turned into the caring person she was.
After Nix was stood up on a date while at an outdoor rock concert she heard a girl in trouble and didn’t think twice about going to help this other girl even with the big guy who was trying to rape her. Abell was at this same concert picking up yet another girl to bed when on his way to get beer for her he seen the commotion and took it upon himself to help these girls out. Yep, he may have been a manwhore but he was a hidden knight in shining armor.
This is the first meeting of Abell and Nix and after hooking up that night the next day’s meeting blew everyone away when they came face to face at a meeting that their parents had arranged for them. You would not believe what these crazy parents wanted these two to do. It was because of this arrangement that Nix would bring out the best in Abell whether he wanted her to or not. And Abell would show Nix how beautiful she actually was.
So if you have looking for a quick hot read this is a great book full of some very, very erotic scenes. (noticed I said “very” twice…wink, wink) I loved the way the best was brought out in the best of these two lost souls who did not have any idea what being loved by a parent was all about but yet were able to realize love when it bit them in the a**. The question was if they were willing to put themselves out there for the hurt that they knew was a very real thing.

This is a standalone with an HEA! Mature Content (Ages 18+ Only)
The Bad Boy Arrangement is exciting, engaging, captivating, and delicious. Is an amazing beautiful story fantastically well-plotted, well-written, and fast paced. Author Nora Flite's unique writing style tells the story flawlessly. This book was a page turner for me, the kind of genuine gem I knew I was getting from her.
This story was so beautiful, I was totally mesmerized and fixated by it, that I lost track of time. Nora Flite is one of my favorites at creating believable and likable characters, that besides having or projecting strong or dark personalities, they still humble and funny, adorable and irresistibly sexy. So easy to fell in love with. By the characters interaction I'm easily being pull right into the story.
Abell Birch, notorious billionaire player. He's perfectly gorgeous, perfectly filthy. Tattoos cover every inch of his muscles, his eyes can burn right through you, and his lips know just where to kiss. A real complete package. The exact kind of manwhore Nix hates.
Even though she was twenty-three, both of her parents had a strong hold over her life. Nix is working for them at one of the top consulting firms in the city. Working so had for them, she'd never had time for a social life, no time for friends or love, but she was sure that at the end it would pay off, because that company was her legacy, it was practically hers. It'll all be worth it, she thought.
Nix and Abell are two broken souls. They're about to run into each other in the most unlikely way. One heroic act. Just one drink (Yeah, right). One night of passion. Never to see each other again. Or that's what they thought!
I've really love and enjoy this book. I couldn’t find myself to put it down. I highly recommend this fantastic standalone. Nora Flite's Stories just keep getting better and better!
Abell and Nix meet at a concert, in the park, while stopping an attack on a fellow concert goer. One celebratory drink soon turns into another, then another....until they eventually end up at Abell's place. The next morning, they part ways never to see each other again, or so they thought. They become part of a business transaction their parents agreed upon years ago. A contract. One that seems iron-clad. Soon feelings take over and they begin a game of cat and mouse. Who exactly is the cat and who exactly is the mouse, has yet to be determined. They begin to see they have more in common than they expected. Nix tries to give this business deal a chance, but can she keep it strictly business? Abell wants her to fail in her attempt, as this will give him the advantage he needs to win her over. Will the sexy, billionaire playboy Abell be the hero sexy, confident Nix needs? THESE TWO WERE HOT TOGETHER ! THIS BOOK CONTAINS SMOKING, HOT SEX ! AND LOTS OF IT ! JUST DO IT ! JUST ONE-CLICK ALREADY !
I received an ARC of this story for an honest review!
HOLY HELL!!
I couldn't get enough of this book! I didn't want it to end... Nix has always done what her parents have wanted of her without a second thought. she has wanted to be CEO of the family company for as long as she can remember but not just for her but for her brother; the brother that is from an affair her father had while married to her mother. she loves her brother dearly and wants to help him. Nix meets Abell at a rock concert when he comes to her aid while she is fighting off an angry, drunk man Abell has been all about women and booze for years, this way there is no emotion...until he meets and beds Nix... due to a contract between their parents, they now have to get married or lose everything. Nix has worked too hard and given up her life for her to lose everything, she's also not going to let her brother down. Abell never expected to see Nix again and now he can't stop thinking about her. you MUST read this story... I will definitely be reading this book again and again!
As per usual, Nora brings us an awesome book with hilarious characters and off-the-charts sex.
Abell was sooo yummy, I just want him all to myself. Being the son of a millionaire has made him spoiled but when he meets Nix, drinking and random sex doesn't have the same appeal anymore. There's just one tiny little detail, their parents have signed a contract in which it is stated that they will be married and have a child within the first year or Nix's family company is going to be absorbed by Mr. Birch's company (Abel's father).
Nix is no pushover, she has been dreaming about being the CEO of her family's company since she can remember. Even though she doesn't have a close relationship with her parents, she wants to save the company and create a good place to be for her half-brother Gram, who is treated like a pariah.
With a sizzling chemistry, Nix and Abell have to navigate confusing business deals and lying parents; but what happens when they start to fall for each other?
I am a big fan of Nora Flite's books and as usual, this one pulled me in right from the start and then kept me interested until the very end. It was not quite what I expected...Abell and Nix made a hotter than hot couple and their sexual encounters were so erotic...but the twist in the story was slightly unreal and then to have more reveals later on just turned the book from an intriguing mystery to a so-so romantic drama. I have also read several books with a similar storyline as well but it is still worth the read (if only to enjoy those extremely steamy loves scenes and the HEA surprise ending) and this author writes her sexual tension SO well. If you are a fan of Flite's work, you will definitely want to add this one to your library. I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.
**** 4 **** "keeping the family and money in sight" stars
This actually wasn't too bad. Abram "Abell" and Nichole "Nix" are two poor-little-rich-kids who hook up one night never expecting to see each other again only to find that Nix's parents have essentially whored her out to be Abell's wife.

Okay, I was going to leave a review, but I just got a pretty awful phone call regarding a family member and have to take an unexpected road trip. Remainder of review will come later or maybe not. Short version is that I was surprised by how much I liked this book and that even though it ran shorter than I thought (this book ended at 50% and another book began) it was the perfect length.
Where do I start! Strong, fierce and Controlled Nix meets bad boy, manwhore Abell (God, I love his name). Mind you, Nora will make you drool with Abell, the way she has described him you'll want to just reach out and scratch him yourself as how can you let go THAT man!!! So when an earth shattering encounter makes them forget what they are, reality comes ten-fold in the form of their douchebag of a parents.
What they didn't expect is, love is a strong feeling above all, if it's true, it'll make you strong and take you to heights no matter how shitty a situation is, love conquers all!!!
Loved the book and looking forward to read about HuNk as well
A playboy and a workaholic could thwy really fall in love.
Nix is a workaholic. All she does is do as she knows for a company that she thinks will be hers one day. She is striding towards that goal.
Abel is a playboy. He like to jave sex with woman who he can forget. This could be cover for something deeper though.
Between both sets of parents Abel and Nix are pawns but just how for are they willing to let their parents use them. What secrets are revealed and what is really the truth all comes out in the end but will it be to late for Abel and Nix.
I will admit I liked this book even better than, Last of the Bad Boys. This book didn't seem as rushed. I loved the chemistry between the characters & everything seemed to flow MUCH better! I could definitely see myself reading more by this author. I knew right from the start that there was an alternative motivation behind this ultimatum. I'm happy about the HEA but sad about how it had to come about.
Another cracking book by Nora. I really enjoyed how drawn both Abell and Nix are towards one another. I didn't really like Abell at the start but he really did show his truth self.
This is a definite do not follow in those of your parents on both sides.
I loved Nix and Abell and their journey. What a read! I highly recommend this. The second book about Hux and Zoe was equally as good. Both had lived sordid lives, but found their secrets by being in the right place at the right time. Get this book! You will not regret it.
I loved this story. This idea that a bad boy can be blindsided by his own pain and walls that he does not know love until it was thrown in front of him. And when he does fall its passionate and fierce.
I loved how these bad boys didn't fight realizing they'd found their one and only, and how the girls were mature enough to not let the overage of previous partners the men had keep themselves from being loved and happy
The Bad Boy Arrangement was not only hot it had twists I didn't expect. The HEA ending fit the story. The Last Bad Boy came with this book. Although the two stories were vastly different from each other the style of writing was just as enjoyable.
The first story was actually pretty good but the second story was the worst. No I would not recommend and i think I'll put this author in my Do Not Read List.
Abell and Nix are so sweet together. I was so glad when they just said screw the contract and just lived for each other. I can't wait for a sequel with Riley's brothers and sisters. Great read!
