* ARC provided by the author for an honest review *This was one amazing, sexy read. I was totally engrossed in it from the moment I began to read. I loved all the angst, drama, sexual tension and steamy moments. Ashley Suzanne, provided us an engaging novel that believe me when I tell you, will be hard to put down. Dex, is a sexy, arrogant, no holds barred world renowned photographer. His approach to sex gives the phrase "love them and leave them" a WHOLE new meaning. His system, is genius but as all good things, that approach comes to an abrupt end when the world catches on to his way of saying good-bye to the string of women he leaves when the sun rises. A successful photography's life isn't an easy one. Roots and family are hard to establish let alone let flourish. Dex loves his career and has sacrificed some for it, however there is one other person that has sacrificed much more than him, his best friend and constant the beautiful ex model Briar. These two meet way in the beginning of their careers and with that one photo taken by Dex become the super stars they are today. Since the start the sparks and sexual tension have been there for these two, but life had others plans and their lives took different turns, Dex went ahead with his passion, while Briar developed a new passion, being a wife and mother. Years later, this two still maintained a friendship, somewhat strained while Briar was married but when tragedy struck and she was left alone with a child, Dex stepped right back in and their friendship continued. The media circus surrounding the circumstance of Dex's Calling Card goodbyes to the women he sleeps with was a blessing in disguise in some ways, it was the catalyst in causing these two to take their relationship to the next level, something they both have wanted for a long time but were too afraid to voice. With twists and turns, ups and downs, love made and love lost, watch as Dex and Briar struggle to find their own HEA. When secrets are revealed, will it be too much for this couple to bear? Is love worth risking years of friendship and security in one another? Will Dex step up and be the man Briar and her daughter deserve?Read and find out in this sexy read. You will laugh, cry, cringe and blush all the while enjoying every single page of this fantastic novel. 4 FangsDexter MacFadden is an amazing photographer who travels around the country photographing the top models and dealing with the upper class. This includes woman in and out of the bedroom. Yes he’s a player and has a system and an app for it. His system is simple and there for a reason. He leaves a business card behind for every woman he sleeps with and leaves a number on the back. Yes every woman. There’s a phone number on the card that connects the girl to a phone service. The phone service has a script. If the girl is below 7 there is a script that won’t break the girl’s heart, and also protects him because it basically compliments them but does not give his information. Now the girls who rate above 7 are put in his black book or FB ( f***book) app. These girls get a call back, and he makes sure to snap a photo so he remembers each girl that makes it into his book. Easy Peasy, right? Wrong. After blowing off a reporter who wanted to get to know Dex better after their interview, his little system was ousted. So Dex goes into hiding with the one person he trusts the most and who got his photography career started. His best friend and the only girl he’s ever love Briar. Will Dex’s career be ruined? Does Dex love Briar? Read it!This book amused me. I had to laugh at the calling card because in all truth really woman are that catty and the card was a great idea coming from this woman’s perspective. Now in all honesty I knew it would never work because anyone that callous should really be brought down from their pedestal. I love Briar. She’s very sweet, but can knock you back into the real world too. And she’s the only woman who actually made Dex look like a normal person.
