Calendar Girl: Volume One (1)

Calendar Girl: Volume One (Calendar Girl #1-3 ) was a great read by Audrey Carlan. This box set consists of; January, February, and March. January (Calendar Girl #1 ) was a great read by Audrey Carlan. Mia Saunders needs a lot of money. She needed one million dollars in one year to save her father’s life. He was beaten to within an inch of his life for not paying his gambling debts. The loan shark is her ruthless ex-boyfriend. She gets a job with Exquisite Escorts, to serve as a high priced escort for her aunt’s company. This story shows her journey as an escort to twelve clients in twelve different places. March (Calendar Girl #3) was a great read by Audrey Carlan. Mia finds herself pretending to be the fiancée of a hunky boxer and rich restautanteur. Antony “Tony” Fasano is looking for a fake fiancée and is willing to pay pant price for it. I enjoyed reading this book and cant wait to read more by the author.

I love the story of Mia. It's definitely worth the journey. Let me go month by month to explain my thoughts. With January, it brought tragedy with her father being in a coma, to having to work for her aunt to pay her father's $1,000,000 debt to loan sharks. So as a new escort for exquisite escorts, Mia meets Weston Changing the third! Super hot movie star, surfer, Malibu Ken! She wasn't to fall in love but she did and she fell hard. But rather than admit to it she plans to pay her father's debt and revisit this love thing in a year. So she leaves Wes hanging at the end of January. February Mia meets up with Alec. A French artist who wants her as his muse for the month. Alex starts pulling back the layers that are Mia and shows her true beauty and different versions of love. It's then Mia realizes she needs this journey to find herself. March brings in Tony and Hector. She's to play the part of fiancee to Tony while he keeps his sexual orientation a secret. The only thing is Mia learned a lot from her time with Alex and she wanted to spread what she learned. And no one was happier than Mia when Tony went public with his relationship with Hector. It truly shows that love comes in different packages. All in all I loved the first volume of Calendar girl. It was funny, raw emotion, and down right sexy.

January might be my favorite of all of the months. There’s nothing to explain that the synopsis hasn’t – Mia’s father is in to a loan shark for one million dollars and is in a coma from his men beating him. She becomes an escort to try to make the money for the loan shark so he doesn’t kill her father or take it out on Mia or her sister Madison. And Mia must spend a month with each person who asks for her services – sleeping with them is not required. I mean, there were some intriguing stories throughout, but this is the one where Mia Sanders met the infamous Weston Charles Channing the third. He was sexy as sin, and the sexual (and otherwise) tension between them was palpable. He had her for an entire month, and it seemed to go by too quickly for both of them. She was more open than the rules allowed, which was a line she wasn’t supposed to cross. But it was something that drew them closer together. Also, Mia was stronger and sassier in this first month, and I liked that about her. It was before she made more of the life-changing decisions. I also liked that Wes was someone who she couldn’t seem to keep off her mind. And as much as he fought it, he had the same problem. And I loved the way he was on her mind throughout her adventures of the year. It was full of steam and sweet torture. February was exciting and sensual and my second favorite of the year. Alec Dubois was an enigma – an artist who could attract any woman but a man who knew every little thing about a woman’s body. The art he created using Mia as his muse was breathtaking from the sound of the author’s description, and I had no problem picturing what was happening at any time during the month. Alec was also a lover in every sense of the word. Rather a recluse, the sexy artist had trouble with the real world, though, and I completely understood Mia’s reluctance to stay even longer. And while she spent her time with the successful artist, Wes wasn’t far from her thoughts. March was just fun. Antony Fasano with the boxer body and the muscles on top of muscles is the heir to a famous restaurant and a fortune. He hired Mia to be his fake fiancée to keep his family off his case, and she was ready to jump in with both feet. He was tired of them telling him he needed to settle down and get married. But there was a side to Antony that would blow her mind and give her an insight into the man. He needed her for more than playing a simply fake fiancée part. And she was even more ready to help him through the massive bridge he needed to cross in order to help him find a happiness she knew he deserved. This one took me by surprise, and I really enjoyed all of the side stories.

This is the first book of a four book series. It’s broken into each month of the year. I can’t even begin to explain how much I love the Fmc in this book! The different relationships she builds along her journey while trying to save her family drew me in over and over again. Soo much spice without being on overload. Each client becomes family in their own way and in the end she actually ends up finding a missing piece to her bloodline and the truth to what happened to her mother. I don’t want to ruin or spoil anything but the plot was amazing the spice was absolute fire! I have read this series three times now and it never gets old. I recommend this book 100%

This is an excellent series! I have read the first three books, and a about to order the last book of the series.

Refreshing, funny and interesting regarding friendly and romantic relationships. The main character is endearing. I am looking forward to reading the next volume.

Sehr gute Story, v.a. mal eine andere Herangehensweise! Für die Folgebücher 7,99 für die Kindle Version halte ich allerdings überzogen. Es sind jeweils nicht viel mehr Seiten, als andere Bücher haben, die aber grad mal die Hälfte kosten... Die Geschichte ist fesselnd, aber ich werde sie für den Preis nicht weiterlesen...

My first read of a Audrey Carlan book with January, February and March in Calendar Girl and boy what an awesome ride, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED Mia's story so far with Wes Channing, hot, rich, movie writer in the first book, January....WOW!!! Then Alec Dubois, hot, rich French artist in the second book, February....WOW AGAIN!!! Then Anthony Fasano hot, rich restaurateur with his "friend" Hector Chavez....BRILLIANT!!! Highly recommended and I most definitely will be reading more of Audrey Carlan books.

I love these series and have just realised I have not reviewed even though I’ve read them many times such a great storyline. January Wes Blew me away February Alec was so Art March was not expecting they twist she walked into.
