Contracted by Marni Mann Publication Date: June 28th, 2018 Genre: Contemporary Romance
Synopsis: Years ago, I was burned by a woman.
I forgave, but I haven’t forgotten, and it’s a road I’ll never go down again.
My career has become my life instead. I’m Max Graham, the biggest music agent in the business. Women love me, but I don’t do love anymore. I’ve found another way to meet my needs.
Eve Kennedy—stylist to the stars and total bombshell. By far, she’s the most daring woman I’ve ever had in my bed with a sexual appetite as ferocious as mine.
We might just have the hottest sex life in Miami and LA.
We don’t date anyone else—although, sometimes, we invite someone for a night. We travel the world, and I lavish her with gifts. But she knows my career comes first.
And the best part? For the past two years, she’s been happy with our arrangement.
Or so I thought.
I’ve survived heartbreak once before, but this one could be the end of me.

Review:
Rating: 2 out of 5 stars
The book was lacking one big thing. Romance. And that tired and frustrated me because for half the book Eve and Max weren't in the same city or country or at the same mindset. I was expecting Max after the accident to realize that he was in love with Eve and couldn't live without her, but he kept singing the same tune as before. I still don't buy his change of heart. And as if that wasn't enough he was spending a lot of time with his ex. The same ex who cheated on him and ruined him for the other women. His relationship with her had a better development than the one he had with Eve. I was wishing she would dump his arse and move on with another man leaving Max to rot alone. He wasted 36 chapters on insisting that he and Eve were good enough without saying the "I love yous" or something that might resemble a relationship.
Here is also something that some of you might not like. Eve brings a treat to Max early in the book. That treat is another woman and they have a threesome. That's so not my thing since I don't like a third person added to the mix when there is not a triad. That not only threw me off but also turned me off because it was sudden.
I wouldn't recommend the book. It was frustrating and I wasn't even able to enjoy the angsty moments of it. Max is a bad hero and Eve deserved someone better. Contracted is the worst book in the series. I am looking forward to Scarlett's story though.
