Since the day we first met, sweet little tomboy Bobbi Tipton has been untouchable, the boss’s adopted kid and completely off-limits. But now that she’s grown into a troublemaking spitfire who watches me with big eyes and flushed cheeks whenever she thinks I’m not looking, it’s getting harder and harder to steer clear.
Then my boss makes me an offer I can’t refuse. To allow him to retire with a clear conscience, he’s leaving me his entire legacy—his business, his trucks, his profits.
Oh, and one more thing.
He wants me to solve the all-grown-up, hard-headed, puppy-rescuing, hotter-than-sin Bobbi Tipton problem, too—by taking her off his hands…and I’m not the only guy gunning for the job.
Time to swing this fix into full gear.

I loved this quickie read. It was the perfect balance of sexy and erotic, without being too raunchy. It had just enough romance and warm gooey moments between the MCs to make it fleshed out. It reminded me of AR books but with more character build up.
Bobbi and Dean have been trying (unsuccessfully) to hide their intense chemistry. When they're left alone during a storm, they both give in to temptation and realize they are pretty damn perfect together.
Of course things don't go smoothly for them right away. There's Bobbi's abandonment issues rearing their head when she starts to question Dean's sudden change of heart. From biker nomad to settled and ready to commit, she's not sure she can trust him to want to stay forever. Meanwhile, Dean has to deal with a handsy creep who tries to start trouble and convince Bobbi that his feelings for her are real and strong enough make their relationship work.
This was definitely a short quickie but with substance :)
Memorable Moments: The smexy times are Kindle-melting HAWT!
Would I recommend? For a sexy quickie this one would be perfect!

This was a quick read on a Sunday afternoon. It was too quick, however, to really understand any of the motivations of the characters... so I can’t give it more than 3 stars.
Serious question though... why was it called the Virgin Fix?
Well there isn't much to the story..It was short so to me there was really a chance to develop the characters. We have a quick fall in love, then a quick oops we have a problem and then a bandaid and quick yup you guessed it a resolve..I would prefer my time spent on a longer more interesting story..

"I'm a goddess wrapped in the arms of her fierce and mighty god."
I'll be honest here. Despite what the title of the book suggests or what the genre of the book suggests, this book is so much more than simple mindless sex. I mean, I'm not denying that superficial sex doesn't happen throughout—half the time, the starting line doesn't even make sense but despite that, the book is much more than that.
Not much, but a little bit more, eh...
As in, there is a full fledged story hidden behind these pages—a story filled with sex scenes, for sure, but a story nonetheless. I guess that is only why I'm giving this book even a 3 star rating. It was a little disappointing because I had assumed there to be a little bit more of a story but there was none. There was, but it wasn't enough. Am I even making any sense here?
I mean, think about it: Virgin Fix was a rather small read. It got over before I even knew what happened and well, let's be honest—I really didn't understand the characters' motivation. Like I said, half the things didn't make sense.
Oh and before I end, I have a quick question. Why was it called Virgin Fix? Didn't get that part.
Monica RushVirgin Fix by is an erotica about a girl who finds herself alone in a "scary" world and has to turn to a man from her past. She is very attracted to him, and he to her. They face a few obstacles before being happy.
I am having a hard time writing about this book since I disliked it so much. It was incredibly unrealistic. The characters were shallow and they seemed to have only one interest - each other. Moreover, most importantly - the writing was terrible!
I don't know what else to say. The book is short, only ninety pages. Still, the plot would fit into twenty or even less.
I don't even want to get into the whole title thing. The book is named Virgin Fix. What? What kind of a name is that? Why is it insinuated that being a virgin is a bad thing? This simply makes me angry.
I do not recommend to anyone to read this book. It is a waste of time!
I received this book in exchange for an honest review.
This was a short little novella and it was an ok read. Not too bad but it could have also been much better. It had an interesting premise that could have been developed more in several areas. The characters were nice but a little flat. I did love the dogs though, dogs make everything better. :) Overall an easy, short read but nothing to get really excited about.

Bobbi couldn’t believe he’d come back after what happened last summer.She remembered how she had walked in on Dean in the shower , how he had stroked himself . Bobbi felt an ache between her legs as she watched Dean , she thought she was hidden by the fog of the hot water and proceed to get herself off. Than she noticed Dean had been watching her and she ran out of the bathroom and she hadn’t seen him since. Paddy was Bobbi’s guardian . He took her in after her father had died while working for Paddy on a construction job and her father didn’t have his safety harness on. Bobbi had been thirteen. Dean was Paddy’s favorite foreman. It was Dean. Bobbi hurried to finish Mr. Doolittle’s bath - one of the shelter dogs where Bobbi volunteered. Bobbi had been trying to avoid the same lecture Paddy had been giving her since she turned eighteen. To find a good man and settle down. Dean thought back to the day last year when Bobbi watched him in the shower. It had taken every ounce of Deans control to not pull her in the shower with him. He had even held the shower door closed to stop from reaching for Bobbi. Dean had thought about sleeping with Bobbi every since. Which is why Dean had stayed away. She was his boss's ward/kid. Dean knew they would never happen as bobbi was to be protected . also Bobbi hates him judging by the way she is glaring at him. Bobbi had always wore her feelings on her sleeve. You knew where you stood with Bobbi and that was refreshing. Bobbi makies dean crazy in more ways than one but he actually had a soft spot for her. Paddy had just told Dead he wants to leave him everything- the house, the millions in the bank, the multiple properties , even his own division of O'Malley construction. Dean had worked for Paddy for fifteen years and never thought Paddy would do anything like this. But Bobbi is part of the deal. If he takes what Paddy's offering dean has to agree to take care of Bobbi the rest of his life of until bobbi marries a man Dean approves of. Also Bobbi had to move into the house with Dean. Dean knows Bobbi feels the heat burning between them. Dean has an overwhelming need to make Bobbi his. Dean ends up kissing Bobbi right in front of Paddy. After she leaves to go back to her cottage Paddy said he had a car coming to take him to the airport. Paddy wants Dean and Bobbi to marry. Dean thinks no way, this man puts nothing before the next job , a life on the open road. This man is a free spirit, in the moment and never having regrets. Than Dean realizes Paddy had left. There was another foreman- Bruce who would take the deal if Dean didn't. Bruce was hoping Dean would turn Paddy down. Dean can see bruce looking at Bobbi and planning to drag her away and have sex with her. Dean decided there was no way he was letting Bruce near Bobbi. Bobbi was his responsibility , and it doesn’t bother him as much as he thought it would. Bobbi is his. His happiness, love of the open road didn't hold a candle to that. Than it starts to storm and the lights go out, Bobbi and her strays are soaking wet in the back porch . She told Dean her lights are off and she has no heat. Dean starts a fire and than ends up giving Bobbi oral sex to prepare her for later as she admitted she was a virgin and wanted Dean as her first lover. Bobbi is afraid of thunderstorms has been since she was little but dean makes her feel safe and doesn’t laugh at her fear and understands it. Bobbi and Dean sleep together. Dean knows he has to tell bobbi about Paddy’s decision and than his but than she rubbed up against him and Dean thought he would tell her tomorrow. The next day as Bobbi lets out the dogs at paddy’s she sees her landlord. He threatens to evict her as there is only a two pet policy and Bobbi hadn’t had a chance to clean the back yard after the strays had went to the bathroom there just before the storm. Than Bobbi asks dean if the dogs could stay there and he agrees. Dean thinks about when Paddy gave him a job when he was at his lowest. Gas money had run out and he had no money for food. Dean was sleeping on his bike behind a diner, he hadn't showered in a couple of days. Paddy brought him inside , fed him, offered dean a change of clothes and put him to work. I loved this book. More of a novella but lacking nothing. I loved Dean and Bobbi together and how they interacted. I loved how protective Dean was of Boobi. I loved the ending it just tied everything together. I the pace and the plot. Just a sweet easy great romance. I have a new favorite. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of this book and I highly recommend it.
This is a quick fast read. It has both sex scenes and some erotic, but both are done in the taste with the book and makes the story move along. The female Bobbi Tipton has been living with the owner of the construction company Paddy, he also is her guardian after her father was killed working for Paddy. Now Bobbi is wanting to have her own place because she works at an animal shelter rescue place, but her place is falling apart. Being evicted she goes back to living with Paddy. Dean who is much older than her has had a thing for her for years and after a steamy time in the shower with her looking at him, he has not been around for a long time. Now Paddy has asked him to take over the business and to look out for Bobbi since he wants to retire to Arizona. At first, he really does not think that is a good idea until one of the workers tries to have his way with her and he gets rid of him. He then lets her know his feelings for her waiting for her answer. Read this quick story, the sex scenes take longer. A very good book. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 4 stars.

This book was provided to me by NetGalley for a review.
Unfortunately, this was not a win for me. I already had an issue with the title (which begs the question of: why did I request it in the first place but alas!). I'm a sucker for experienced vs inexperienced but just with the opening of the story...cringe. The way the author introduced Bobbi's POV just made me cringe (her name also bugged me). The book was short which cost the characters a chance for a deeper development to make them likable enough. The premise wasn't promising and the rest of the story unfolding didn't get any better. Pretty poorly written and non-existent plot. Just because a book is short, doesn't mean the plot/characters should be sacrificed. Oh well.
Short stories have limitations as to character development, so I go in expecting that. This story had very flat characters with quickly glazed over backgrounds, that at times didn't make sense. The plot was minimal at best with out much meat to keep my interest through the whole of this quick read. It also just didn't met my expectation of an erotic read. Conflict suddenly appeared then suddenly disappeared without the build up or discussion expected to gain a HEA. Overall, this novel had an interesting premise that could have been fleshed out more in several areas. *I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley and this is my voluntary and honest review.
Freewheeling chopper guy returns to Florida to find his old boss ready to hand over the business to him, and that might include his sexy virgin ward. But of course nothing is ever that easy. . . While this is nicely written, it’s nothing that hasn’t been done hundreds of times before. She can’t stand him, then falls hard for him. He wants his freedom, but she gets under his skin and he has no idea how or why. Stuff happens that could be solved if they were simply honest with each other. As much as I hate to put it this way, it was by the numbers. Except for one thing, and this was quite a negative: letting the attempted rapist get off so easily. . .
This is the first book I've read by this author. It reminded me of Alexa Riley's books in terms of the shorter length, the need-a-fan sexy times, an alpha hero who falls hard for the innocent virgin and needs to make her his, and just the overall sweetness. I loved the addition of the shelter dogs. If you're looking for a quick escape with something H-O-T, give this author a try.
Thank you to NetGalley and the author for providing an ARC for review.
Dean is working for Bobbi's adopted father. His boss makes him an offer to take over his business, trucks and to be with Bobbi. The couple has always been attracted to each other but tried to hide it. Now the only problem is Dean isn't the only man interested in Bobbi. Will the couple end up together? This was a short quick read with instant love.
I received a copy of this book via Netgalley and am leaving a review.
Given the nature of this book, I expected it to be short and to the point, but I thought more could've been done with the characters and story line. It lacked depth and while at times I found each of the characters a bit endearing, it ended just as quickly as it began. Some of the verbage totally turned me off and parts of the storyline just didn't make sense to me.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book and it had just enough spice to entice. Bobbi was sweet, endearing and feisty, which was a perfect match for Dean's hotness. Paddy was very intuitive about Bobbi and Dean needing a push to take their relationship to the next level. This was a steamy, passionate and thrilling read.
Thus is a short read. It started off cute and funny . A quirky female lead and an alpha male make up the story. The story would have been better if it was longer so we could enjoy the things Bobbi got into with Dean coming to rescue. However, the story was too short for any development. A little drama and a happy ending. Cute epilogues give us a nice look into the future.
Sometimes you just want something fast and hot but the story starts with a flimsy premise and never gets any better. This was one I would not have finished, even at only 90 pages, if I had not received my copy in exchange for an honest review.
I sometimes wonder if Dean knows what to do with his woman at times, “totally not a cupcake,” I shoot back. “And there are a lot of things I hadn’t ridden before last night.” The comment is so quick, so bold, that Dean’s eyebrows shoot up..." This was a quick, instalove read that I liked.
A big thank you to NetGalley and Monica Rush Books LLC for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book.First time reading this author. This is part of a series. This is a short, cutebook. Believable? Nope but still fun. I loved the dogs and the humor. 3 stars
This is fun and fast read. I enjoyed reading it..... It's a great escape and I read it in one setting after a very stressful day. Perfect for when you need to relax and just curl up with a book.
4 stars for “Virgin Fix”. What a great short read. I could not put it down. Wanted more. Hotness everywhere. The heartstrings did get some pulls also. What a fantastic start to a “ The Virgins” series. Totally recommend for anyone who’s after a quick, sexy story.
I enjoyed every second of reading this book. This is one you will never want to put down. As unconventional as the reason behind their get together was, reading their interactions will have your heart melting.
Even for what it was—a brief escape for fun—this novella was very poorly written, and the plot was nonexistent. It’s possible for short-form erotica to be elegant and original, but this was not either.
The story was good, I wish it might’ve been a little longer with a bit more detail in some spots but for a quick read it was good. I received this book from Net Galley for an honest review.
