Title: January
Series: Calendar Girl #1
Author: Audrey Carlan
Release Date: January 15, 2015
Synopsis
It’s really simple. I
needed money. A lot of money. One million dollars to be exact. The
amount didn’t matter. All that mattered is that at the end of that price
tag held my father’s life.
No money. No life.
The time limit was one year. On January 1st I had to pay up or my Father was going to be killed.
When you’re faced with an ultimatum like this, you do whatever you have to do.
And that’s exactly what I did.
The
job…Exquisite Escorts. My role, serve as high priced arm candy to
anyone that can afford the $100,000 price tag for a month of my company.
Sex is optional (for me) and a 20% increase on the price.

Mia
Saunders just barely escaped a paltry life back home in Las Vegas until
she gets the call that her Father has been beaten to within an inch of
his life for not paying his gambling debt. Problem is, the lone shark is
her lousy, ruthless ex-boyfriend. Another guy in a long line of men
she’d fallen head over heels for. Not anymore.
Mia’s mission is
simple. Serve as a high-priced escort for her Aunt’s company and pay
monthly against her Father’s bad debt. A month with a rich man who she
doesn’t have to sleep with if she doesn’t want to? Easy money. At least
that’s the way it was supposed to go.
Each installment in the
Calendar Girl Serial will release every month throughout 2015. The
stories will feature Mia, told from her perspective as she continues her
journey as an escort to twelve clients in twelve different locations.
Warning: This book is designed for audiences 18+ due to language and graphic sexual content.

Review by Bev
3.5 - 4 Stars
I absolutely love serials. I love to complain about how they are taking too long on the next installment, but I refuse to give up the high I get from reading tiny pieces of a story at a time. I know I am crazy, but this love is legit.
I was pleasantly surprised with this first installment, mainly because the way the story is told it feels more like a complete story.
Mia Saunders is kind of a mess when it comes to love. I could tell very quickly that Mia is the type of girl who is in love with the idea of love. That is until true love screws her one too many times, now she is just ready to give up on the idea all together.
Now due to her father’s gambling debt Mia isn’t in a position to find love. Her father was beaten and left for dead as a threat to them, pay the million dollars or next time he will die. Mia and her family don’t have that kind of money, so she is left with one option: turn to her aunt’s escort service business.
Mia decides to take the plunge, she will be contracted as an escort for a month’s time. During that month she will stay with that one client, conform to his desires and be his every fantasy. At the end of the year Mia should have enough money to pay her father’s debt.
I loved this first client, Wes. I will be honest I am a little worried about what's to come. I liked Wes so much so I was ready to plan their wedding for them, but despite their chemistry in and out of the bedroom Mia still has to leave at the end of January.
I am pretty excited to see how things continue with this serial. So far I am really enjoying it. I like how the installments are longer and while this one really just setup the story I think there is a lot of potential for how the series may unfold. I can’t wait to continue reading and see what happens next.
Calendar Girl is a serial that will be released every month of 2015, telling the story of Mia’s life as an escort.

Excerpt
“Sweetheart,
we need to set some ground rules.” His voice was a grumble against my skin. He
swirled his tongue over the ball of one shoulder and bit down.
I moaned.
“Ground rules?” I barely made out the words, while enjoying his talented
fingers as they tugged and elongated each peak. My body was on hyperalert, his
hands massaging and cupping each globe while those relentless fingers gave each
nipple the most beautiful torture.
“Rule one:
We’re going to have an insane amount of sex this month.” He pressed hard on
each tip simultaneously. I cried out in bliss, the heat between my legs soaking
the wisp of fabric I was wearing.
“And that’s a
rule?” I said breathlessly leaning further back into him, grinding my ass into
his thick erection. Sounded like a damn good rule to me.
Wes groaned
and then retaliated by twisting each nip, perfectly adding just the right
amount of pleasure and pain.
“Rule two is
when we’re together like this, it’s only me and you. The entire month we’re
monogamous.”
I bit down on
my lip and focused on swiveling my hips pressing against what I could feel to
be a pretty impressive package. “Agreed.”
Both hands
moved off my breast for a moment then they were back, though somehow wetted.
They slid smoothly around each areola and I melted, barely able to stay in a
standing position.
He must have
sensed the instability and moved to lock an arm around my waist but kept up his
sweet seduction of my breasts. Jesus, the man was my new hero. If he kept this
up, I’d come without ever being penetrated. I leaned an arm back and clasped
him behind the neck, arching into his hand, wanting so badly to kiss him, but
his lock on my waist and the firm pressure of his front against my back
prevented it.
“Rule three:
We never sleep in the same bed. We do
not want to confuse this with something it’s not. I like you, Mia. A lot. I
wouldn’t want to hurt you by making you believe I was in a position for a
relationship. Understand?”
The hand that
was around my waist shifted and crept low, very low, until he was there, right there where I wanted him most.
“Oh, fuck
yeah, I understand,” I said and pushed my hips into his twirling finger. And I
did understand. We wanted exactly the same thing. Friendship and physical
release.
He chuckled
against my neck, the puffs of air stirring my hair. Out of nowhere he flipped
my body around, sank to his knees, and yanked down my panties. They were stuck
at the ankles where I had neglected to remove my heels. As I locked eyes with
his, he opened me with his thumbs, flattened his tongue, and went to town on my
clit.
“Oh, oh,
oh.” I was relegated to monosyllables
and nothing more.
Between licks
I could swear he started talking. My brain was having a really hard time paying
close attention, but finally he pulled away and I zeroed in, gripping his hair
and trying to push him towards my aching cleft. “Rule four:”—his eyes twinkled
and he inhaled my scent then licked his lips like he was enjoying the finest
delicacy and was about to feast. “Never fall in love,” he said with a grin then
sucked the throbbing nub into his mouth and flicked his tongue against the tip.
I almost fell
over. I leaned back, and he helped me into a position where I was lying on the
bed, legs dangling over the edge, and opened wide, him in between them. “That
might be impossible…” I whispered as his tongue drove into my sex. I was right
on the edge when he stopped in the middle of a perfect combination of tongue
and finger action. I groaned loudly.
“Excuse me,”
he said, voice tight with a razor’s edge.
I gripped his
hair and did an ab curl up to my elbows. “Relax, Wes. I’m in love with your
fucking tongue. Now stick it in me and make me come so I can return the favor.”
The sexiest grin I’d ever seen slipped across his face.
“Best decision I ever made, hiring you.”
