“I bought you to be my whore.”Hendrix Parker lost it all four years ago. Angry at the world, he’s become an asshole—a bitter shell of the man his family once loved. A recluse, he’s now forced to leave his sanctuary in the Florida Keys and become an active member of the real estate development community he now dominates.The problem is he’s all alone and needs a buffer. Someone to draw attention … buffer. Someone to draw attention away from him…
Beau Carter is young, beautiful, and with a bright future ahead of her. Her dreams of becoming the first woman in her family to graduate from college are just within grasp when the financial aid runs out. Up to her eyeballs in debt, she works night and day to make ends meet, but even that can only last for so long.
A contract. Six Months. The catch?
All I have to do is become a sugar baby to a very rich man—one that I want to punch and throw myself at all on the same breath.

Craving Sugar by Elena M. Reyes is the story of Hendrix Parker and Beau Carter.
Beau needs help to pay for her college which is how she ends up meeting Hendrix. Hendrix will pay her to be with him to help buffer him from others but the spark fly between the two. Hendrix isn’t going down easily which leads to a hot read. Enjoyed
Lots of push and pull as well as high-heat chemistry, a very delicious read, indeed!
—>>> Review Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars – Hiring a tasty morsel of a girl he nicknames “Nymph,” elusive millionaire Hendrix Parker becomes a reluctant Sugar Daddy to one Beau Carter, an investment he just could not wait to sample himself…all the meanwhile having to remind himself that this was just for business. Of course, that does not explain his possessiveness or his thoughts being occupied with Beau and only Beau lately.
Lots of push and pull as well as high-heat chemistry – this author really knows how to set up the characters so they can push each others’ buttons for our entertainment beautifully ;-D This was a very delicious read, indeed!
Excellent and touching romance
It’s again with Elena M. Reyes, both excellent characters in a complicated, exciting situation to which the initial situation does not seem to have a healthy or calm solution.
Here, Hendrix needs a fake girlfriend and his friend enrolls him without his advice, to a service in which young women act, without being either escorts or prostitutes. Hendrix is against it, arrogant, but when he watches he chooses Beau who is stuck helping her family and her autistic niece. She finds it hard to come to terms with what she is going to do, let alone be underestimated or laughed at and Hendrix can be really manipulative.
But this relationship biased by money, power constantly collides with a mutual attraction that neither of the two thinks they can trust by remaining themselves: Hendrix wants to control everything and Beau wants to remain free not to follow the rules he wants to impose.
The story is hot, intense, moving because the empathy for Beau is immediate, and Hendrix’s reactions, unpredictable.
I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
I enjoyed the quick, sexy read for what it was. They had a ton of chemistry, he took care of her financial stresses, perhaps between him and her new friend Zoe she saw what a doormat she had been with other relationships (friendships and family) and altered her behavior. She made him look good for important people, softened him at times, and he enjoyed the sex of course. But he was controlling, hateful, deceitful (what he pulled with the contract was so disgusting), and constantly making her feel like less than him. Sure, it worked out, happy ending, etc. But my goodness I’m not sure you could have paid me enough to tolerate that abuse. Yikes! But fortunately he grew up and groveled epically so i have to give the guy credit. I did enjoy reading it (bonus points for how she ultimately handled Ruby!!!!).

Beau needs tuition but her family is strapped from always bailing out her sister. When a friend proposes she become a Sugar Baby she is against it but what other choice does she have. Hendrix is a self made millioner who wants for nothing. He needs a companion to escort him to various events and his best friend suggests he get a Sugar Baby. He is skeptical but when he sees Beau’s profile he knows he has to have her.
Great book with wonderful characters. I loved it.

There are wonderfully written characters, both the main and support characters are so well written. The story is one that has a lot of unfairness to it but also what turns out to be a feisty female who does what she has to in order to succeed in the future and a wealthy cocky guy learn a lesson about love. I enjoyed this book and loved how the author writes.

An Amazing Read! It is well written, quite the page turner, full of drama, and intrigue. It also has many great twists, turns and hotness. Well-developed storyline with interesting, feisty, and strong but broken characters that you will hate and love. There is enough drama, humour, LOL moments, and witty banter to captivate you keeping you on the edge of your seat. The Chemistry between Beau and Hendrix is intense and is off the charts; the sexual tension at an all time high. This is really a great read and comes highly recommended.

I loved meeting Beau Carter and Hendrix Parker in this book. I have enjoyed the other books that I have read by this author so jumped at the chance to read a new one. Beau Carter is the good girl, she is polite, always helping others and wanting to please everyone kinda girl. She is determined to complete college and be the first in her family to graduate. However, financial aid is running out and waiting tables is just not going to be enough to cover tuition. She needs a plan B. Hendrix is a wealthy, a$$hole, alpha male character that will leave you wondering if you hate him or love him. I flipped and flopped throughout the book myself. These two characters meet and a business deal is formed. However, as with all business deals that are struck between strangers, the more time you spend together, the more you get to know one another, you open up and guess who sneakily creeps into your heart…..yep, that person. This was a great story that takes you through this relationship that develops between Beau and Hendrix and the twists that enter to challenge these amazing characters along their way to a HEA. This was a great read, it didn’t take long to devour as it was hard to put down.

Okay, so I’m the type of person who can place myself within a great story and be that fly on the wall and this fly wanted to slap Hendrix upside his head multiple times. I understood his pain but it was so misguided that it was messing with his chance of happiness.
The story was beautifully written that I could not put it down until the very end.

He’s the alpha male you want to love and hate at the same time. He is a real piece of work thanks to a past experience. When he is required to come back into the public domain he is in need of arm candy someone that he can use as a screen. Beau is having a few issues of her own and when she falls short of the money to finish school, she takes the contract Hendrix offers. Will she be able to handle his crass nature without losing herself in the process?

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I liked the way it was written, the sassiness of Beau, the female character and the domineering alpha male character and the storyline. The sex scenes were really hot!! I liked how the book ended too, a great hea. I’ll definitely be reading more from this author.
I am voluntarily writing this review for this book I received through Booksprouts arc.
Hendrix friend told him he should meet someone because they have some upcoming events he must attend. His friend told him about sugar babies but Hendrix was being an jackass gave his friend a hard time. Zoe overheard Beau conversation with her friend about her financial situation. Beau takes Zoe up on how to be a sugar baby. Hendrix checked his account and got a lot of emails. While scrolling down he got to the last picture on his matches he saw her. Hendrix gets in touch and tells her where to meet him and what time. But, that wasn’t what it was suppose to go and told him “No”. Then she tells him where to meet her the next day. They were sitting talking he started to get really domineering so she told him that they weren’t going to be a match. Hendrix couldn’t let her go even though he was a control freak until she walks out on him at his office. Hendrix runs into Beau at a bar with her friends. Hendrix has a secret from the past and he was very wary of woman’s intentions that is why he went with a Sugar Daddy website no muss no fuss but a negotiated contract. Beau moved in with Hendrix but reminded to tell him it was only for the 6 months and then she would be going back to her old apartment. Beau as getting tired of him a dominant jerk. But, it wasn’t until he say those words to her that made her leave immediately. Hendrix is a dominant and Beau a submissive they do not see themselves like that at all also no kink.
Craving Sugar is the definition of smut. It’s hot, hot, hot and totally NSFW.
It’s about Beau, a special education’s student in Miami, who’s persuaded to try a slightly unconventional way of paying for her college tuition. She becomes a sugar baby to a rich, older man. Only problem is, the man – Hendrix Parker – is hot as hell, entirely too moody, demanding and unreasonable and Beau finds herself falling for him although he sees her only as a temporary plaything. At least, that’s how it seems. Hendrix is in turn plagued by his past and fights his growing feelings for the woman who was only supposed to be hired eye-candy. What the two have from the very first time they meet, though, is chemistry. Beacuse holy crap is there lots of really hot secenes in this book. It’s fast and hard and combustible. So if you’re looking for something juicy to get your blood pumping, this is it.
This story is very simple in it’s structure. The characters are few, a bit clichéd and most of the scenes are focused on the interactions between Beau and Hendrix. The small attempts at sidestories are halfhearted at best and there is no real intrigue beyond the relationship of the main characters. So, by all accounts, it should be quite low quality reading. But despite the simplicity, Beau’s and Hendrix’s encounters are downright sizzling, which makes you forget all the other stuff that’s lacking.
When I started reading, I had real trouble with the author’s way of skipping so many of the pronouns in the beginning of sentences. I found it really annoying and I was often forced to back up and add the correct pronoun in my head in order to make sense of it all. This is the first time I’ve encountered that way of English writing so it took a while before it stopped distracting me from the story-line. But in the end, when I couldn’t put the Kindle down I was so engrossed, that specific compositional quirk didn’t matter at all.
Bottom line is that Craving sugar won’t win any awards. But it’s so delicious and naughty that it doesn’t matter the least. It fills it’s purpose by being smutty as all hell.

eau Carter , an average woman on a mission. To try to find the money to continue her schooling in behavioral children’s education. Working double shifts by her college an get turned down for loans. With no good news anywhere in site until another student overhears her conversation, an thinks she would make the perfect “sugar baby” woman who hang on the arms of older men at engagements , acting like the girlfriend, but getting completely taken care of. Beau doesn’t realize how much until she sees the girl Zoe’s apartment, knowing a college student could never afford it. After a last straw, she gives in an the whiplash of millionaire Hendrix Parker begins.
A scarred man that doesn’t believe in any rules that aren’t his own, dominant in many ways , a complete control freak .Thinking this is a joke an getting his friend off his back he sees her profile , a man used to getting what he wants he knows how to use manipulations , but at what cost to both of them?
This had all the elements of steamy sex that Elena M Reyes writes so well! Loved the storyline, the plot and OMG the epilogue!!
Tell me you will be my sugar, nymph.
“Kiss me,” I repeated and watched with hunger as Beau watched my lips. Licked her own. “Why?” My head was at war with my head. Do I tell her the truth or a bullsht lie. Again, I looked down and focused on those pouty lips, the words were out of my mouth before I could stop them. “Because I need to taste their sweetness or I’ll go insane.”
Get it the f*** together. She’s here for a paycheck and nothing more. The perfect sugar wh*re.
“I paid you to be my wh*re, not play Susie homemaker . You’ll never be more than the woman I pay to use.”
“Addiction is a terrible thing,” she murmured under her breath before taking my lower lip between her own and biting down on the abused flesh. “You are a terrible thing.” – reviewed 10-17
I absolutely loved this book. Hendrix and Beau are perfect for each other. She is a diamond in the rough and he is well you’ll have to be surprised about him. Their journey was smoking. I love the way you feel them. The writing and flow of this book is done well. I do recommend this book.
Loved this and can’t wait to pick up more by Ms Reyes!
Very well written. Enjoyed the chemistry between the MC and FC <3
I really enjoyed this. Loved Beau. She was a strong, feisty character. She needed to be too, to deal with someone like Hendrix. I admit, at first, I didn’t like him. He went after Beau, but he was insulting and rude to her a lot as if she was some kind of whore, yet he’d gone to the site where she was. So, what did that make him? He was crippled by guilt after the death of his wife several years ago. He hadn’t had any relationship since, but he can’t control the attraction he feels for Beau, no matter how hard he fights it. The sexual tension in this book was off the charts. It was hot and sexy. Watching Hendrix losing control to Beau was a sight to see. Hard, alpha male being brought to his knees by a young woman. Great story and I enjoyed the bonus book that followed this one too.
Hendrix and Beau story has us engaging in this wild back and forth encounter with some wild banter that has you climbing walls or holding on to your seats! A great read!
