Publisher's summary

Tonight, my virginity goes to the highest bidder....

This obviously isn’t the fun, romantic first time I’ve always imagined, but it’s the only way to raise the money to save my sister from her abusive ex.

The best I can hope for is that my buyer won’t be a creep. And that he won’t hurt me.

But I’ll confess, by the time the auction is over, this lifelong book nerd is shaking in her high heels and itchy lace corset.

And then I meet him. Sterling.

He’s gorgeous, loaded, and, as I soon come to realize, highly accomplished in the field of delivering multiple Os.

But what did he mean when he said he can’t remember the last time his hands were clean? And why does his sleepy country estate need a man with a gun guarding the entrance?

Most importantly, am I going to be his guest here...or his prisoner?

Warning: Sold to Sterling is the first installment in a three-book serial romance. It’s a dark, dirty, boundary-pushing romance that ends in a cliff-hanger.

Sexy suspenseful romance!

I am narrator motivated, so I selected this story based on Everly Stone and the narrators. I really enjoyed this dark romantic suspense with a twist of mystery and a few things I never saw coming. Great anti-hero with layered complexity and depth and a heroine who is no fading violet for sure! CJ Mission and Lili did an excellent job narrating these complicated characters and situations. Enjoyed all 3 books and finished in one day!

A Steamy Hit

Another steamy hit from Everly Stone! I love a good auction trope. And even though I should probably hate Sterling, I can’t. Because he’s just so hot! A flawed bad boy, who I suspect will win me over fully. And I adore Trudy for being awkward and fierce at the same time. Be warned that this is a serial so be sure to have the full series on standby as it does end in a cliffhanger. And you will want more.

A hot quickie and great start to a series

Trudy needs to raise money quick to help her sister. So, she decides to sell her virginity to the highest bidder in an auction. To her surprise, the winner of the auction is handsome, and not at all creepy as she feared. Sterling has many talents, and he proves her body is one of them. But Sterling is hiding something, and Trudy can’t figure out what it is.

I enjoyed this intro to Sterling and Trudy. There’s a bit of an explanation of Sterling’s intent, but I won’t spoil it. Trudy intrigues Sterling. She’s nothing like other women he’s been involved with. She’s smart, inquisitive, and seemingly submissive. The chemistry between them is quite strong, and that gives Sterling pause. But he can’t let that thwart his plans. I can’t wait to see how this series continues.

C. J. Mission and Lili Valente do a great job with the narration.

Hot start to the trilogy!

A dirty billionaire delight that ends on a cliffhanger that has me anxiously awaiting the next one.

Trudy is selling her virginity to help pay for her sister’s rehab and escape from an abusive ex. She goes through a prestigious agency. Her virginity is won by a man named Sterling. He’s secretive of his identity because he has a secret that Trudy doesn’t know about.

This trilogy starts off super hot and I can’t wait to see where it goes from here. Trudy is struggling to care for her sister and does what she needs to do. It’s her body, her choice. I can’t wait to find out Sterling’s secret. It’s a great plot twist to the story and adds something extra special to the plot.

Lili Valente was wonderful. She brought all of the emotions Trudy was feeling to life. C.J. Mission was the perfect choice for Sterling. He’s a got a great Alpha billionaire voice.

Fantastic!

I really enjoyed this and did not want it to end!
Lili & CJ did an amazing job as Trudy and Sterling

Steamy, Sexy, and Oh, So Twisty

The thing about having a plan is that it's really, really important to be flexible. Why? Because even the best laid plans are bound to go a little bit sideways with no warning. Case in point, Trudy Potter. She has a plan, one that involves selling off a most precious part of herself in order to take care of her sister. And it's a good plan, until that sideways thing. Enter Sterling. He also has a plan, and Trudy's plan plays right into his. Except that I have a feeling that his plan is going to need some adjusting, too. Like I said, flexibility...

All of this to say that SOLD TO STERLING, the first book in a trilogy by author Everly Stone, is the beginning of what promises to be one heck of a ride, for Trudy, for Sterling, and for us readers. Sexy, unpredictable, and with plenty of anticipated twists, turns, and those sideways plans, Trudy's and Sterling's story has me hooked.

People say that cliffhangers aren't their thing, but I say bring them on, because they just add to the anticipation. With two more installments to go, I'm more than ready for all the things that Everly's got up her sleeve. As a note, narrators Lili Valente and C.J. Mission bring it to life in the very best way, and I can't wait to hear how they carry the story through. Don't miss this one, you will love it. ❤️

disappointing that it is so short

very frustrating that this was broken up into so many sections, it will be very expensive to read the whole book since you don't get the entire story with this first purchase, the last audiobook I got was over 8 hours this is only two. unfortunately I'm not going to listen past the first book because of that

Deliciously dark

I promised myself that I’d slow down on reading trilogies or duets this year, but it only took reading the blurb and I totally sold to this book. It’s dark, has suspense, super steamy and that cliffhanger left me wanting so much more. And the narrators being a totally different experience over the story.

In order to save her sister from her abusive ex and pay her rehab, Trudy Potter will do anything, including selling her virginity in an auction to the highest bidder. She thinks that it will be a quick deal, one night tops. But the winner has other plans for her.

Sterling is seeking revenge against Connor, Trudy’s stepbrother, and destroy him. When he finds Trudy, he knows that she is the way to achieve that. Sterling will do despicable things to her and will break her, and I can’t wait to see everything. If the first book is any indication, with all the super hot and dirty mouth he has, this trilogy is one to read. It seems deliciously dark!

A sexy new series

Trudy Potter will do anything she can to raise enough money to help her sister and that includes selling her virginity to the highest bidder. But what she doesn't know is that Sterling is the only bidder and he has plans for her beyond claiming her virginity. Trudy Potter is his ticket to revenge and once she's bought and paid for she'll have no choice but to do his bidding.

Dark and Steamy Listen

“Love doesn’t stop when the going gets tough; it digs in and fights harder. Love does what needs to be done. No matter what the cost.”

Sold to Sterling is a thrilling and steamy start to a new trilogy. Trudy Potter is willing to sell her virginity to the highest bidder in order to help her sister get the help that she needs. When she’s sold to a handsome billionaire who unbeknownst to her is set on revenge to her family, Trudy is drawn into a dark and dangerous game where she is the unwitting pawn.

Trudy is naïve and full of heart. She will sacrifice anything for her family. Sterling is unfeeling and cold, but even though he’s seeking revenge, he’s drawn to the softness in Trudy.

The audio is narrated by Lili Valente and C.J. Mission. I loved listening to their personification of the characters and how they brought the story to life.

Full of delicious heat and intriguing drama, this story lays the foundation for what promises to be a thrilling ride. I can’t wait to find out what happens next for Trudy and Sterling.
