About this listen
Sex can be the means to an end, but what happens at the end of the means?
A heart-warming tale of alpha males facing a precipitous slide - for beta or for worse. Woody Steele is one of the richest men on the planet. Sadly one of his greatest assets has been recently downsized - sorry Casanova. Ivan Greenbriar, his fellow billionaire nemesis and creep extraordinaire, turns every activity into a pissing contest even when he’s alone. Sargent Scanlon, a hero cop solely on the merits of getting shot in the nuts, doesn’t know what fear is until he must match wits with his odious 14-year-old stepdaughter - she’s a crime against humanity. Meanwhile, looking down from above is Colonel Pavlenko, the world’s oldest practicing Stalinist (mutually assured destruction anyone?).
This is a real-time, real-world story about manly men - and their women, women who are ready to break through the glass ceiling, even if they have to use their mates as battering rams.

Story
A billion-dollar fashion empire, and it's about to be mine. I've worked a decade for this. I've sold my soul and my reputation. I've lived a lie, smiled for the cameras, and hated myself, all for this fortune. And then she pops up. A mysterious heir with a rap sheet, combat boots, and a mouth that I want to pin shut with my - it doesn’t matter. I've played this game for a decade. I can continue the charade a little longer, keep my hands to myself and her body out of my mind.

Whip-smart, funny, and all the best similes
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I loved this author so much! He had a habit of turning a phrase with such mixed metaphors that I found myself smiling all the time. For instance: "Third century Greco-Roman kiddie porn", or "Surrounded by the detritus of an aphrodisiac mind field." (I know, right!!!!) It was great.
The story itself flips from POV to POV and you need to pay attention but man, is it worth it!!
I loved the narration as well. McColly was challenged on all fronts but he delivered.
This listen is not for everyone but if you like a "how the mighty falls" listen, you will love this.
Such delicious bad behavior
