The Default Girlfriend
This is an alternate title/cover edition for B006X2SYWU
A fast-paced comedy about a socially inept professional who can’t control his lust
Ian Bourne’s girlfriend of seven years leaves him without so much as a goodbye. About to turn thirty, he’s obsessed by the thought of the sex he missed in his youth, and believes this is his last chance to get it. All he has to do is lose some weight and learn some social skills. It can’t be that difficult... can it?
When he’s given a fraud case to investigate in the city of his student years, he seizes the chance to trace and seduce the women he thinks he could have slept with. And if he can crack the case, he’ll make junior partner.
His attempts at seduction are frustrated… and then he commits a grave sexual misdemeanour.
Can Ian clear his name and expose a fraud by violent organised criminals with roots deep in the establishment?
Warning – sexually explicit content

Doctor How and the Illegal Aliens: The Doctor Who is not a Time Lord 1 - Doctor How and the Deadly Anemones: (Doctor How book two) 2 - Doctor How and the Alien Invasion 3 - Doctor How and the Kennedy Assassination Conspiracy (Doctor How, #0.1) Doctor How and the Rings of Uranus (Doctor How, #0.2) {.2 subscriber only, unsure about .1 but probably also and is part at least of book 2} - Doctor How (3 Book Series) {#1-3} Doctor How and the Dragons Doctor How, book four {Due out ??}
Kindle Unlimited, but got the first way bit back and lost in my kindle mess of uncategorized books {didn't switch over my folders when updated couple of times though did add yet another kindle for pc listing go figure} Take binges on things, especially reading, this one was all the Doctor How books which of course by Mark Speed, and John Pirillo's The adventures of Lord When: Travels Through Time {Trilogy} andand In Times Like These {Trilogy by Nathan Van Coops}.Took me longer than usual to read Doctor How, so many 'in' references, hilarious.
