In the dance of life, everybody needs a partner. Some have two. My last year of college was set to be the best yet. With a great job and better friends, only a few months stood between me and the life of my dreams. Until it, all fell apart. Desperate, I stumbled into a job at Soirée, a private party company. The underground world of burlesque offered me something nothing else had. And since they'd never seen a girl like me, it was a perfect match. Two problems stood between me and utter happiness. Roman, the boss who hated me as much as I despised him. And his best friend Reid, who wanted me as much as I needed him. Roman was a bossy, arrogant, miserable ass. He might have taken a chance and hired me, but every single thing about him infuriated me. Irritating him quickly became my favorite hobby. Reid was nothing like his best friend. Confident, mysterious, and kind, he never hid the fact that he wanted me in his bed. Most of the time I struggled to remember why giving in would be a bad idea.In the dance of life, everybody needs a partner. Some have two. My last year of college was set to be the best yet.
