Please be this is book one of a four-book series. They must be read in order. This series contains sexual practices that may offend sensitive readers.
He needed money for college in the worst way…
When Brandon Duque’s scholarship falls through, he’s got to come up with tuition money—fast. His mother’s boyfriend is more than willing to help out—for a price. Will Brandon be able to handle the older man’s demands, or will he have to put his college dreams on hold?
When he’s not plotting world domination, Bruce Rose is usually plotting gay romance novels. If he’s not writing hot man-on-man action, you might find him trying out new recipes, listening to old 80s rock, or putting his Star Wars action figures into provocative poses.

As with all Bruce Rose's work, this story has his wit and creativity. Just note the triggers: dub-con, humiliation play, daddy kink, age-gap just off the top of my head. I'll admit my curiosity is piqued, I'm on to the next one.
First, what the hell was up with the "Daddy" from hell? Crazy, just crazy.
Moving on now, Brandon and Vincent find themselves in a predicament. Luckily things work out for the best and no harm comes to them. Great ending to the kinky series.
I'm not even that surprised. That's the reason why I usually avoid reading these short series. But this one got me interest enough to try it, mostly because I like stories with crude language in it.
'Earning Rough' could be really good. But well... it's not.
3 and 1/2 stars. The sex was very hot. I almost stopped reading when Vincent made Brandon dress like a girl. Fortunately, that only happened in the first part of the book. It was 4 and 1/2 Stars until the weird daddy part. That was too bizarre.
This series just keeps getting better and better. I love the progress that Vincent and Brandon have made. Seeing Vincent's vulnerable side this episode was sweet.
Last in a four part series - must be read in order
I really liked the way the author took the time to develop these characters over the four books. The plot is well paced and everything makes sense and works out in the best way possible. There were enough 'snort out loud' moments for me to just enjoy the heck out of these books and take them as (what I am sure the author intended) a lot of fun.
#4 was my favorite in the series and I love the way it ended, but I would love some more. Maybe we can coerce the author into writing a few vignettes: Brandon and Vincent go on vacation (beach, ski resort or camping)? Vincent comes to visit Brandon at college and they attend the homecoming game? Brandon's 21st Bday? I'll have to think on that ;)
And the hot smut continued to the club where there was gang bang action along with exhibitionism. Brandon got his wet t-shirt and Vincent respected his limits - oh, too sweet! I forgot to say in my previous reviews it sure was nice to see a hairy chest on a book cover.
I really do love this author - great style, fantastic characters and a nice, fast pacing. This is a crazy, dark series but the author (with his signature style) still has me chuckling here and there. The premise is fantastic and I know there are big surprises ahead, since I never know where a Bruce Rose story is going to go. This series is really enjoyable and I'm loving every minute of it.
