You did it! We figured this one out! It is a truth universally acknowledged (by me for certain) that the Bitchery pretty much knows everything, and really, it's true. Scroll down to see the solution for this HaBO - and many thanks!
This HaBO comes from Tina, who is searching for this contemporary romance:
Hey! I’m looking for a book I read within the last year, I think.
I don’t remember a setup for a sequel, so I think it was a standalone, but I might be wrong about that.
It was set in Las Vegas and featured a virgin heroine that is dragged into a bar by a friend and ends up kissing the hero in the bar’s office. (He knows the owner.) Next day, she discovers, that guy is her new boss at her first job. I think they were starting a casino/hotel. They’re super into each other, but he’s afraid she just wants her money (can’t remember if he’s a billionaire or “just” wealthy). She auctions off her virginity to the hero and “has to” live with him for a month/few weeks.
I also remember, the heroine bought bedsheets at Goodwill and turned them into pyjamas.
Hopefully, the Bitchery can help me out with the title, I’ve pretty much exhausted all my resources. 🙂
I know the plot doesn’t center on the Goodwill bed sheet pajamas, but that’s definitely the part in which I’m most interested.
I know this one! There’s a series! Off to my Good Reads…
Good Girl by Jana Aston
For half a second after reading the HaBO title “…is this somehow about ME?”, says the person who buys massive amounts of thrift store sheets to make quilts.
Christina nailed it! I just re-read this prior to reading the sorta-sequel, “Good Time.” I loved the detail about re-purposing vintage sheets into cute pajamas as well…
“auctions off her virginity to the hero” in a contemporary?! ewwww
Dorothea it’s not quite how it sounds. She sets it up to provoke the hero into “declaring” his feelings
I LOVE this book! I love how it showed the heroine’s interests and how had a personality. The writing was very good as well.
