Everyone believes Alexandra Kane is a good girl. She follows the rules, stays the course, but there’s only so far she can bend before she breaks. Her reputation is everything, but she can’t resist temptation when given an opportunity to join Club Valentine, the exclusive sex club that caters to the wealthy.
Roman Valentine makes a living providing people a place to exercise their sexual preferences with discretion. He knows how to keep secrets, especially since he has some of his own he doesn’t want discovered. Alexandra provides a distraction he doesn’t need, but Roman how can he say no when she makes him an offer he can’t refuse.
Their agreement is simple. Discretion, orgasms, and never mix business with pleasure. But what happens when business becomes personal? How will they react when the secrets they keep buried threaten to overtake them? And what’s Alexandra supposed to do when Roman’s secret directly impacts her life?

This book was unexpectedly amazing. I didn’t really expect myself to be sucked so strongly into a plot that others have used, but Mutually Exclusive was a refreshing storyline with characters I fell completely in love with. I loved Alexandra Kane and Roman Valentine even when I found myself extremely mad at them.

These two start to struggle when their arrangement starts to leave pure pleasure to something more resembling a real relationship. I definitely enjoyed watching them struggle to come to terms that they could be more, and it added a depth to the story that kept me hooked to very end.

Roman is sexy, strong and a bit bull headed. Alexandra is confident, knows what she wants and surrenders beautifully to the passion that Roman inspires. I highly recommend this book, and will be looking for more books written by this author.
