The rules of the game were simple. One weekend. We play our roles. Actually, we play lots of roles. I get the info I need for a secret work project. We go back to how we were. That’s what I proposed to handsome, clever, commanding Jake. That’s what he said yes to - this decadent gift of a weekend that would get me out of trouble. But that’s not what happened when our nights together in Vegas ended....

The second the test-the-sexy-scenes offer landed in my lap, I said yes. After all, I've been damn curious about a few things I've read in romance novels. Do buttons truly go flying across the floor when you rip off a guy's shirt? Is staircase nookie hella hot, or does it leave you with a big old bruise mark on your back? And don’t even get me started on all that panty shredding, and whether it even works. Time to find out as I embark on Project Sexy Scenes Research, at the request of my hotshot book editor bestie. All I need is a willing scene partner.

Story
I wasn't in the market for a man. I definitely wasn't looking for a man like Clay Nichols, with a dirty mind and a mouth to match. But then he walked into my life one night, and he was everything I wanted. He's also exactly what I can't have. Because there's a price tag on my head. I'm a wanted woman, and I owe debts that were never mine. The dangerous men I owe have threatened to hurt anyone in my life if I don't pay up. So I work off my debts by playing cards in an underground poker ring. One so risky I shouldn't get involved with a soul.

Story
The woman I want is as off-limits as they come. I had an excuse two years ago when I met her on campus. She interviewed me for a story on major league baseball's rising stars, and we shared a hot, passionate night that ended far too soon, and without a mention of who her father was. Now I know the innocent but sexy woman I can’t stop thinking about is the coach's daughter. All the more reason to resist Reese. That ought to be easy enough, until she confesses she's still carrying her V card, and she’s been wanting me to cash it in since the day we met.

Raise your hand if you’ve ever done this. Written a racy message and sent it to—oops—the wrong person. Yeah, me too. Except, I sent my latest Tales of a Naughty Virgin column detailing my fantasies about my hot, charming, thoroughly bangable next-door-neighbor to…my entire company. Did I mention I’m a children’s book editor? Well, I was. *Facepalm.* At least the column goes viral, but I’m still the gal who gets fired for her not-safe-for-work thoughts about the so-called “Mister Sexy Pants”.

Let me list the reasons why dating the sexy, charming pro hockey star is a bad idea: He’s one of my closest friends. All our friends are friends. The wounds I’ve got from past relationships go deep. And so do his. We’re both devoutly single - it’s just safer for the heart that way. But there’s no reason not to bid on the gorgeous, clever athlete at the charity auction this weekend. If I win, it’ll be a "friendsdate".

At 25, I run a successful business, live in a fantastic apartment, and have fabulous friends to go out with any night of the week. And yet I'm still a card-carrying member of a club I don't want to belong to anymore. Good thing I know just the man for the deflowering job - my brother’s business partner and best friend.

There are three words most men can’t resist—I dare you. So as you can see, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I had no choice when my buddies said, “I bet you can’t get that brunette beauty to kiss you before the night ends.” I proved them wrong, and oh, how good it felt to be right when I swept the quick-tongued woman into my arms and kissed the breath out of her at the party. But, I made a slight miscalculation. Turns out she’s my brand-new enemy. And soon, I’m locked in a fierce battle of wits with my sexy-as-sin nemesis.

Some women are just forbidden. Like - off the top of my head - my sister's lifelong best friend. Sis has made it patently clear that Vanessa is hands-off, as in keep my ladies' man paws far away from her clever, go-getter best friend who's ready for the real deal. That should be an easy guideline to follow, except Vanessa is deliciously flirty and easy to talk to and laughs at my jokes. Translation - my libido has been craving her many, many years. So many that we might have stolen a kiss or two. Can you say pent-up, crazy, raw desire?

Ever notice that sometimes a guy will do something really stupid, like let the love of his life slip through his fingers? Yeah. I'm that guy. But the instant I run into her again I've got one goal and one goal only—a second chance. The plan? Go big or go home. Fine, at first glance, stripping naked at my ex-girlfriend's place of work might not seem like the brightest way to win her heart again. But trust me on this count—she always liked me best without any clothes on. And sometimes you've got to play to your strengths when you're fighting an uphill battle.

Publisher's Summary
I might still carry my V-card, but I know exactly what I want in a man. Smart, charming and oh-so-skilled. Too bad I haven't found him yet.
But maybe he's found me.
Because when my charming, laid-back next-door neighbor discovers a secret list I keep, he volunteers to work through every single item on it.
Including the last one - at the end, we walk away and stay friends.
I say yes to his offer, and that's when I discover another side to him.
A side I adore. A side I crave. He's commanding, intense, and everything I've ever wanted.
But as we check things off one by one, I find myself breaking the most important rule of all. And I have no idea what it will do to my heart.
Narrated by Elena Wolfe and Teddy Hamilton with special appearances from Joe Arden and Maxine Mitchell.

BATTERIES REQUIRED
This book was so much more than I expected. I usually avoid Adult Virgin story lines but when Lauren Blakely released one I knew I had to at least give it a fair try and I am very surprised to say I really enjoyed this book. Nina isn't your typical innocent virgin, in fact the only thing innocent about her is that she hasn't actually had sex. She has a very dirty imagination and I think working in a sexual field helps her be more adventurous. Adam is the perfect guy next door and also has his own dirty side. The chemistry, the sex scenes and the dirty talk all set this book on fire. I mean the dirty talk alone was off the charts!!! Their story is HOT but it is also sweet and has the friends to lovers thing going on too.
In case I haven't said it enough in all my reviews, Lauren Blakely is seriously the queen of picking the perfect narration for her audiobooks. Elena Wolfe is always amazing and never disappoints but for me Teddy Hamilton stole this show! He was perfect for Adam because he has the regular nice guy sound which I love because it's so natural but he can also heat things up with his sexy bedroom voice. If this book was HOT, His narration made it even hotter!!!

Oh, my...my...
Oh, my...my...
There is just so so much to this story.
First off, Nina and Adam's friendship right from the beginning, is epic. Seeing these two together, even just as friends, makes the page sizzle. They just get each other. But once the "good stuff" comes into play, things really heat up.
I could go on and on about all the "good stuff" that is in this book and just how GOOD it is, but that would then be missing the point. This book is about TRUST. Trusting that you know yourself and your wants, trusting your partner, trusting your heart. The way these two characters trust each other is amazing and in the end, it leaves you with all the feels. ALL of them.
This book isn't for the pearl-clutchers, but is for anyone who wants to read about a couple who trusts each other explicitly, has great chemistry in and out of the bedroom and at the end of the day, wants to feel and squishy and giddy inside.

After Dark Adam
I am not a fan of virgins there I said it, why you might ask well because usually they have never touched themselves and they always have a big O their first time and it’s the best thing EV-ER.
Let’s get real that never happens. Sorry to burst your bubble.
This book was soooo real! Thank you, we have a real woman who shocking KNOWS her own body, who knew! LOL ok, ok, snark over.
I loved the story, but what I loved more was that Nina knows herself but just needed that little push that maybe a girlfriend couldn’t help with. Ask Aphrodite was in a way a girlfriend giving the right advice in a way that made Nina see that she just needed to be honest with herself first and that really made a big difference.
Adam delicious Adam really nailed his part. ;) Ok, Ok, sorry I had to! It was too good not to. :p
Anyways he was perfect and he knew just how to put Nina at ease and when to keep her on her toes. Even though he tried to set boundaries I love that he got real with himself too that was refreshing that he saw it and didn’t push something good away.
The story was full I say that because sometimes when people see a shorter audiobook they feel like you’re missing a lot of the story but I am here to tell you, you are not. This story was never rushed it was filled with all the things that make you want to never stop listening because it had full and round characters and the story was rich and intriguing. I love that we get a little naughtier from Lauren, I love dang near everything she has written and I miss some of her earlier work because she brought the heat and the funny. We get that with this book. <3
The narration is fantastic, Teddy is lush no two ways about it, I know I am not always a fan of Elena Wolfe but that is just because she was/is the narrator of soooo very many books. But now that I have had some time away I remembered why I liked her because she is a great narrator. For me, I just need to listen to something not narrated to her back to back to back. ;)

Hot!
This one’s a hot one! Nina and Adam were neighbors and good friends, while Adam was getting his condo painted he stayed in Nina’s spare bedroom and stumbled upon a list Nina had made. They had a great dynamic going and they definitely made it even hotter! I really want my own Adam. I loved Brandon’s little bit thrown in too. The narrators did a fantastic job!

A SWEET & COMPELLING 5 ⭐️ LISTEN
If the weighty names that goes along with this hot little morsel doesn’t initially tempt you.. then let me share with you that it’s an angst-free, sweet, friends-to-lovers romance about trust, honesty, truth and love. And TRUST me you’ll love every second of it.. you HONESTLY get wrapped-up in this loveable couple’s friendship and sexcapades.. the TRUTH is, the dual POV narration is absolutely perfect.. and LOVE oozed from every single scene.
Worth a credit? It may be a fairly short LB book, but this talented author always makes them seem much longer somehow.. and yes, it would’ve been so worth a credit.. but yaye it’s another win win free listen from Audible Escape.. so absolutely no credit is needed for this little gift. :)

The best friends to lovers
Nina and Adam will warm your heart as well as the rest of you. This is a great story of friends that become so much more and their journey to their HEA is filled with honest and open feelings. This is a great book on expressing how you feel and asking for what you need and not being afraid to do both. Loved everything about this book.
Teddy Hamilton, Elena Wolfe, Joe Arden, and Maxine Mitchell and a wonderful cast to tell this story. Teddy and Elena are perfect as Adam and Nina and Joe and Maxine are great as supporting characters. Loved listening from beginning to end.
I highly recommend this audiobook and it is worth the credit.

A Sexual Exploration
I am really loving Lauren Blakely's After Dark series! The Virgin Gift is a sexy and sensual story that will have listeners fanning themselves throughout. This friends to lovers novella features neighbors Adam and Nina. This is book 2 in the series, but can be enjoyed as a standalone. Previous characters from the first book do appear, however, and that is where we first meet our hero and heroine.
I really enjoyed Nina's sexual exploration. She was timid at first to express her wishes and desires, but once the genie was out of the bottle, there was no going back. Adam was equal parts tender and dominant and couldn't have been a better "teacher" to help Nina with her list. Yes, things move very quickly between them as they try to navigate being temporary lovers and maintaining their friendship, but the initial attraction was already there, so it wasn't hard to believe that things would go this way. I liked the mini side story of Adam's friend, Brandon (narrated by Joe Arden), and I nearly combusted when Nina and Adam crossed item number 11 off the list. HOT!
Can Teddy Hamilton please narrate everything? I love how he can go from the sweet, boy next door to the dominant, alpha character with such ease. His performance as Adam was perfection and coupled with Elena Wolfe, Joe Arden, Maxine Mitchell, this audio really is incredible. The Virgin Gift will have listeners more than hot and bothered while enjoying this sexy tale. Even though I previously read this novella, the narration took it to nuclear levels of hot! This was a quick and sexy listen and I'm excited for Jake and Kate's story next!

Simply amazing - highly recommend!
Some of my favorite narrators and a favorite Author definitely did not disappoint! I finished this last night on Audible and immediately listened again - INSTEAD OF SLEEPING! Soooooo good for so many reasons! Amazing narration performances by all! This is realistic, sweet, sexy, and EMPOWERING!
Seriously! Read this story if you can handle delicious, sex-positive, body-positive, brilliantly dirty awesomeness!
I listened in the AE package, but would definitely spend a credit on this. I'm looking forward to more stories in the series.

Wasn’t for me
I love Lauren Blakely books, but this one just wasn’t for me. Normally I don’t mind stories that are a little far fetched but for some reason I just couldn’t get into this one, although I did stick it out until the end. Narrators did a great job

Holy Hotness Batman!!
Well Ms. Blakely has certainly taken a step toward the darkside with this one, and i for one LOVED IT!
Narration was *insert Chef's kiss here*
A short book, packed to the rafters with hot steamy smexy times.
I would advise either buying yourself a large fan, or reading this one while in a cold shower, don't say that you haven't been warned, this one will knock your socks off!!

I didn't mind it but......
I didn't mind it but I couldn't help but feel like the ideas for this book came from watching porn aimed at males. I found myself cringing on occasion with the use in pet name. But then again I could not have disliked it that much as I finished it.

For those who enjoy interesting stories
This was a great story I hope that there’s more to come in the series and I enjoy listening to this while I’m doing jobs around the house or try to go to sleep overnight time

Wow
Loved this quick read about friends turning to lovers. Aphrodite had such great advice about relationships. This was a lovely read about asking for what you want .
Narration was superb.
