**************
REVIEW: MS. MANWHORE is a novella and last installment in Katy Evans’ contemporary adult MANWHORE erotic romance series focusing on billionaire Malcolm Saint and the woman he loves Rachel Livingston. Ms. Manwhore should not be read as a stand alone as the storyline is the culmination of the relationship between Malcolm and Rachel that began as a lie and ends with a destination wedding on a paradise island.
Told for first person point of view (Rachel) Ms Manwhore follows Rachel as she prepares for her upcoming nuptials-her friends Wynn and Gina, her mother, the dress and Malcolm’s desire to give the woman he loves everything that she wants and needs. Rachel wants a small wedding without the over the top wedding hoopla, but her fiancé needs to give her a wedding she will never forget.
A majority of the storyline looks at Rachel and Malcolm’s sexual relationship. The imagery is detailed and graphic; Malcolm is a man who expresses his love with physical affection and $ex. When Rachel implements a ‘no sex until the wedding night’ policy, we watch as the sexual tension continues to build between our leading couple. The $ex scenes are erotic, provocative and hot.
There is the potential for a spin-off or continuation of the series (ala Katy’s REAL series stylization) focusing on Malcolm’s best friend Tahoe and Rachel’s bestie Gina. Something has occurred between this couple or at the very least Tahoe knows something that the reader does not.
As per Katy Evans’s style of writing there is some repetition. I found myself on the outside while the narrator (Rachel) told us about the events leading up to her wedding. I felt detached from the events as the narrator described what was happening and yet was reluctant to invite us into the action-I was on the outside looking in while the heroine relayed details.
If you are a fan of Katy Evans’ MANWHORE series then Ms.Manwhore is a sweet, sexy conclusion to Rachel and Malcolm’s love story. There are no anxious moments; no conflict and no threats from the outside (aside from Rachel’s ex-boss Victoria making an uninvited appearance). MS. MANWHORE is a short story that looks at two people as they prepare for their wedding without the worry of financial hardship.

Is it possible to expose Chicago’s hottest player—without getting played?
This is the story I’ve been waiting for all my life, and its name is Malcolm Kyle Preston Logan Saint. Don’t be fooled by that last name though. There’s nothing holy about the man except the hell his parties raise. The hottest entrepreneur Chicago has ever known, he’s a man’s man with too much money to spend and too many women vying for his attention.
Mysterious. Privileged. Legendary. His entire life he’s been surrounded by the press as they dig for tidbits to see if his fairytale life is for real or all mirrors and social media lies. Since he hit the scene, his secrets have been his and his alone to keep. And that’s where I come in.
Assigned to investigate Saint and reveal his elusive personality, I’m determined to make him the story that will change my career.
But I never imagined he would change my life. Bit by bit, I start to wonder if I’m the one discovering him…or if he’s uncovering me.
What happens when the man they call Saint, makes you want to sin?

Billionaire playboy? Check.
Ruthless businessman? Check.
Absolutely sinful? Check.
Malcolm Saint was an assignment. A story. A beautiful, difficult man I was supposed to uncover for a racy exposé.
I intended to reveal him, his secrets, his lifestyle—not let him reveal me. But my head was overtaken by my heart and suddenly nothing could stop me from falling. I fell for him, and I fell hard.
Malcolm Saint is absolute Sin, and I’ve become a hopeless Sinner.
Now that the assignment is over, Saint wants something from me–something unexpected–and I want this wicked playboy’s heart. But how can I prove to the man who trusts no one that I’m worthy of becoming his plus one?
