Pierce is a self-made billionaire who doesn’t believe in love or relationships. When he wants his bed warm, he goes through an escort agency. Colt is a high priced escort and Pierce has hired him for two weeks. Colt is on the run from his past and his past has just caught up with him. I really enjoyed this book.
Seriously intense, and worth every word. Pierce is emotionally lazy. He uses an escort service to help meet his social obligations. Colt is a high priced escort, working for Eve’s service. Colt carries steamer trunk luggage in the form of a toxic abusive, homelife background from his stepfather’s abuse of 6 years. Then there was predator Dean! Colt lived his life knowing he was just a few steps ahead of Dean. He knew Dean would hurt him and anyone close to him, extra weight on his steamer trunk. All Colt wanted to do was pursue his photography dream. Pierce knew he was entering uncharted waters with Colt by his intense attraction. You can feel the passion between these two. Will the two weeks go smoothly? Does Colt escape Dean? Does Colt ever get to pick up a camera? Can Pierce let Colt go after the two weeks? Ms Davis’ words are absolutely meltingly powerful. Her words are the finest mink brush on the page! Well done. I received an ARC from Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Nice cover art!

“Nothing that really matters is ever easy. But it’s worth it.” ~Pierce
A hard life made Colt and Pierce the men they are today. Someone said when life hands you lemons make lemonade. Pierce had found his place in the world and had accepted his former life. However, Colt was still struggling to find his peace. On the run from a crazy ex, he found comfort in the only thing you knew; he had become an escort. Suddenly two weeks with Pierce was starting to look like a future. How would he be able to leave when his time was up? And what happened when the past reared its ugly head? Colt Dixon was worth the risk, about that, Pierce had no doubt.
Enjoyed the story that I actually went right back and read it again. For a fast paced book, it was short enough to say, again, but had some substance. I would recommend to anyone who didn’t have an issue with insta-like/love books.
I voluntarily and honestly reviewed this book without bias or persuasion from the author through Booksprout.
Carrie Davis is a new to me author and I found her book to be an enjoyable read. These were two men who truly needed to find love in their lives and who better than each other. Pierce and Colt both had rough childhoods causing them to hide behind tough walls to protect themselves. I enjoyed the story line.

Pierce is an older man who ran away from home with a few dollars in his pocket minimal personal belongings, and the love of technology. Armed with knowledge a mentor/a business transaction styled lover in Tristan, polishing his appearance and personality, he made himself into a technological bastion. Purchasing the business and making it the billionaire success it is today, there is no time or desire to include someone in that equation.
Colt is escaping an abusive past of his stepfather. Assault is hard on anyone. Years of mental and emotional abuse can have long, deep roots. Always feeling he is on the run. Not getting far enough. He becomes a paid escort. Using his youthful and beautiful appearance as a means to attain the money he needs to keep moving should the need arises. Can Colt ever settle down and allow himself to love?
Its standard background of billionaire hires his entertainment is not as it seems. The connection between Colt and Pierce can actually be felt from beginning to end.
Each man feels the tug on their hearts almost immediately in their initial contact to admit as much.
Colt hit the lust button and Pierce decided on more than his standard weekend tryst. Convinced this was for a business trip, he put in for two weeks,which is not his usual practice with any man. Pierce did everything in his power to make Colt feel comfortable; emotions genuine. Not because its his job. You can put a price tag on many things but real interactions aren’t one of them.
Colt’s reactions were definitely genuine towards Pierce. From choosing him through photographs and profiles, to their initial meeting, both men were in casual wear. Dropping the pretense of a power trip.
Learning to love yourself, while breaking down the barriers to love others is a common trait both share.
Will they make it past the two weeks or is there a real future to be had?

Two Runaways find Love!
Wow!!This was an unexpected surprise to me. I did not expect to be blown away with this story but it reeled me in from beginning to end. Colt the young beautiful broken man not understanding his self worth meets Pierce the handsome wealthy sexy older man who is learning to love. The intense emotions from Colt and Pierce could be felt from each page I turned. Some people might describe this as similar to the “Pretty Woman” story but to me this is so much more . More steam…more romance and an evil villain thrown in to add to the drama. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommend to whoever enjoys sweet and steamy love stories.

Once I started reading Can’t Me Love, I couldn’t put it down until I finish it. It’s short, romantic, some intense moments, and easy to read book. The book is sort of Cinderella and Pretty Woman all roll in one. You cant help but hope that Colt gets his happily ever after. The book will have your attention from start to finish. The passion between these is seen from beginning to the end.
Pierce and Colt had immediate chemistry. This was a short but packed read. It was almost love at first sight. I enjoyed their whirlwind of a relationship and them just enjoying each other. Then Colt’s past came to haunt him. He really loved Pierce enough to let him go and not put him in any danger. But Pierce had other ideas, he became is rescuer. Totally loved this book. They both deserved each other and both deserved the HEA they received.

This is an enjoyable well written story about Pierce and Colt that tugged on my heart. They both had similar backgrounds and ran from home at an early age. But then their stories turn very different. Now Colt finds himself at the home of Pierce and his life, well both their lives really are about to change for the better, even when the past tries to make a claim.

This was an amazing book. Pierce and Colt were perfect for each other. These two found exactly what they were not looking for and it was exactly what they needed. I loved the passion, love, action, pain, and steam that this book offered. Ms. Davis is becoming one of my favorite MM romance authors and this book just proves it! I would recommend this book to anyone looking for an MM romance that will tug at your heart but also steam up your windows!

I couldn’t put Can’t Buy Me Love down! I had to finish it because i was so captivated. I was so engrossed that I didn’t hear what others were saying to me. I was lucky in that this book is a novella so I can continue on with my life – like work. There are so many things I love about this absolutely perfect perfection! Finally a bottom that is as tall as his dominant. I was getting really bored due to the cliche that the bottoms were always so much shorter than their dominant partners – which in reality is not true all the time. I just loved that Pierce and Colt were the same height. Of course it has all my favorite tropes:
Hurt/comfort
Rescue/knight in shining armor
HEA
