5 Stars! I call dibs on Malcolm Saint!!!!
“I’m in love with stories. How they shape our lives. How they mark people who don’t even know us. How they can impact us even when an event didn’t exactly occur in our own lives.”Manwhore is the first book in a brand new series from Katy Evans, and just so you know there is a MASSIVE CLIFFY at the end. However please do not let this deter you from buying, devouring and becoming completely enthralled with it, it’s truly worth every minute.Rachel Livingston is 23 years old and a writer, writing is her passion, her career, and she’s determined to be successful. She’s focused on pulling her job back from twirling down the drain. Edge magazine, is floundering and she’s willing to do whatever it takes to save it, even if that means stepping outside her box. When approached by her boss, expecting to be fired like so many before her, she is surprised to find out she’s not only not being fired, but being the opportunity of a lifetime. Write an expose, a revealing, in depth, expose on one of the most desired, eligible manwhores in the Chicago. Rachel has ambition, talent, and is above all else, she’s honest. So when told she’ll need to do whatever it takes to get the story, she’s conflicted, and uncomfortable with her task, this even before she has formally met her muse, Malcolm Saint.Malcolm Saint is powerful, successful, supremely wealthy, devastatingly handsome and sexy. He’s also unattainable. He cannot be had. Known to the world as being the man that gets what he wants, always. Women want to be with him, under him, no matter the consequences and men want to be him. He’s an expert in bargaining and when he truly wants something he will have it, or take it by any means necessary.“Ruthless, they say. A complete manwhore, they say. And so ambitious he’s put Midas to shame. Oh yeah. They say Saint won’t rest till he owns the world.”The attraction between these two is off the charts from the very beginning, but where this book differs from many, is that there is no insta-love. It’s a slow burn that works you as the reader, to such a fevered pitch, you’ll be begging for release. The chemistry, the passion, the lust, the obsession, the secrets, the betrayal, its’ all incredibly perfect, addictive, and unputdownable. I could not put this book down, I was captivated. Manwhore has the most intriguing, strong and determined characters, Rachel is lovely even with her fears, and insecurities, and Malcolm well… I call dibs on Malcolm Saint! This story in just perfection, I found myself lost within the pages, never wanting to find my way back. It’s decadent, emotional, intelligent, and sexy.I cannot wait for the next book; July cannot possibly come fast enough! Manwhore becomes one of my top reads for 2015, the writing is magnificent and the pacing perfection. Katy Evans once again gives us a story you cannot help but submit to mind, heart and soul.“No story was told in one day. No secret revealed in one hour. Nothing lasting built on a single moment.”

Secrets, surprises, seduction....SCRUMPDILIUMPTIOUS
I almost didn't purchase this book because the title threw me off.....but....hey!...who am I kidding?!?.. this is Katy Evans we're talking about here. NO WAY was I gonna pass up one of her masterpieces! Nope...NO frikkin' way! And Ms. Evans is a master driver, taking the wheel with a firm grip and perfect precision.Rachel Livingston (23)...beautiful with a face of a living doll. Long, full blond hair, sparkling clear grey eyes and a touch of innocence and a bit of naivete. Rachel works for a magazine that has fallen on hard economic times...and now she's been assigned to write an expose' on Chicago's most elusive, billionaire bachelor playboy darling...Mr. Malcolm Kyle Preston Logan Saint. An article that is sure to pull the struggling magazine out of the pits.He's stunning in all his structured gorgeousness...with a beautiful face and sensuous lips and icy electric green eyes fringed in thick black lashes. He's branded as a womanizer and his intoxicating smile alone spells trouble. Malcolm Saint (Saint) is 6'3" with wide shoulders and jet black hair. His cool, controlled, composed arrogance possesses a room merely by walking into it. He's powerful and intense...but he's also kind, funny...a tease ---he can be endearing and enchanting.This is a fabulous story of a young woman who has a fear of rejection and of being hurt by a man...who lives her life tucked away in her safe cocoon. She focuses daily on things she can control, like her career. And when she's given a chance of a lifetime to bring in a story on Chicago's most notorious bachelors...of course she jumps on it. How can she refuse?? And in order to succeed, she must pretend to be something she isn't. A liar and a hypocrite. And even though she's careful, she still falls for Saint...no matter how hard she tries to silence the emotion, it still happens. Resisting him only intrigues and challenges him more. But yielding to him would doom her to heartbreaking pain. And her conundrum begins....expose and unmask the secrets of someone she's grown to like and respect? Or refuse her Boss the story of a lifetime that will save the magazine she works for and her co-workers from the unemployment line.This story is riveting. Strong characters, strong plot-line, no loose threads or holes. Rachel is such a sweet young woman who struggles with the situation she's placed in. A brilliant romantic plot by a talented, proven author. Ms. Evans so capably and thoroughly conveys the angst and drama that Rachel finds herself in...as well as the wonderful progression and raw excitement of the newness of the beginning of a hawt mutual connection between two people. Outstanding... I'll be on pins and needles anxiously awaiting the next release.Erotic Romance: ✔✔✔Erotic Language: ✔✔✔Drama/Suspense: ✔✔✔✔✔Cliffhanger: ✔✔✔✔✔

Ends on a Cliffhanger
"You go out searching for something and come back with something else."THE STORY: Rachel Livingston is a magazine writer who is given the assignment to get close to the billionaire bachelor Malcolm Saint and write an expose about him. This is the break that she wants in her career, but it requires her to lie about her intentions. What Rachel doesn't expect is the manwhore she expects is actually a decent person who she begins to care about. What will happen when her true motivations become known?OPINION: I thought this story was intense and complicated with Rachel lying throughout the relationship with Malcolm. Rachel's growth to where she can admit that she was in the wrong is an emphasis in the book. One weak point of the book was that because it was told in the first person, readers only get Rachel's perspective. She apparently doesn't see anything negative about Malcolm because he seems pretty perfect in the book. As a result, Rachel's own actions in lying seem more unreasonable and unforgivable. This book ends on a cliffhanger and thus what might ultimately happen between these two characters when they have honesty between them is still unknown.WORTH MENTIONING: This book ends on a cliffhanger. There is no resolution so readers should be prepared to buy the next book in the series.FINAL DECISION: I liked this book more than I expected. I recognized that the story was not complete and would be continued in the other books in the series, otherwise I might have been seriously annoyed with the ending.CONNECTED BOOKS: MANWHORE is the first book in the Manwhore series.STAR RATING: I give this book 4 stars.

Good one
The start is good but I found the middle of the book dragged too much. Meaning the part where Rachel is fighting her inner feelings and guilt for using saint. Every page that turned made me feel ok may be the other shoe will drop in here but it went on. Also the connection between the two of them did not seemed to be so deep to me as the author was hoping to show. Nevertheless it's a good story only there affair should not had been dragged so long.

loved every word
This is the book! Wow. I am so incredibly in awe of this story. I loved each and every word as it graced the pages of my kindle. Saint and Rachael's story captivated me from start to finish. With angst, romance and a cliffy ending to leave me in a tail spin I have never been so heartbroken over the fact that I need to wait months for the next book to see how everything plays out. I'm a huge Katy Evans fan and this book was a big swoon that has left me happy sad and everything in between. An absolute must read!!

Super neue Serie
Die Real Reihe von Katy hat mir gut gefallen und auf den Start dieser Reihe war ich sehr gespannt. Gleich zu Beginn war mir Rachel sehr sympatisch, ehrgeizig, sozial eingestellt usw. Somit war der Einstieg gelungen und der Rest der Geschichte hat mich so in den Bann gezogen, ich fand sie unglaublich! Ich konnte mitfühlen, mit BEIDEN, und ihre Handlungen und Gedanken nachvollziehen, das ist mir immer sehr wichtig! Freue mich auf den 2. Teil!!! Absolute Leseempfehlung!
