Review: The Ultimate Playboy by Maya Blake

The Ultimate Playboy by Maya Blake
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The first book in The 21st Century Gentleman’s Club Mini-Series – 3 interlinked stories of three powerful, rich and passionate friends, set in exotic and fabulous locations, written by 3 Mills & Boon authors.

Q Virtus, the most secret and exclusive club, where only the invited members of power and wealth meet to network and play. A private world of money and pleasure.
Narciso Valentino, a rich and powerful playboy has accepted the invitation to the club’s quarterly conference being held in Macau, where he plans to finally destroy the man who caused him pain and heartbreak in his life.

Ruby Trevelli is a chef and wants to open her own restaurant and after dumping her boyfriend/partner who she discovered was married and just using her parent’s fame, as the chefs of the very successful and long running reality food show called The Ricardo & Paloma Trevelli Show, which Ruby has no intentions of being part of.

Finding herself without a man and money (yes, the bastardo….ran off with the money she had received as the winner of a TV food competition but thank heavens she retain her virtue…yes of course, Ruby is a virgin!!!!!!), she has no other option but to beg the owner of the television show to invest in her restaurant venture. But she’s unable to pin him down, so after she’s told that he’s going to Q Virtus, she applies for the job of a Petit Q hostess, where she will be able to show him her proposal.

Amid the masked opulence (yes, everyone has to wear a specially designed mask…. you remember…secrets, secrets) Narciso soon begins losing track of the reason he’s there when he locks eyes with the delicious Ruby.
A lot smoldering looks…and yes, sexy Narciso quickly does away with Ruby’s virginity with some hot and erotic sex!!!

Some twists and turns, witty dialogue and naturally loads of obstacles in front to these two that just keep them going hot and cold, yes and no…..but finally we get to see both overcoming their “daddy” issues and go off to their HEA…………..

I enjoyed the story plot with all its intrigues and secrets and fabulous locations – Macau just sounds so exotic doesn’t it? and interesting characters.
