Publisher Description
After a scandal turns her world upside down, a young woman is saved by the man she loathes—her best friend’s infuriating older brother—in this scorching hot enemies-to-lovers romance from the New York Times bestselling author of the Crave series.
“Addictive, sensual . . . This is the kind of romance you devour in one sitting.”—RT Book Reviews
When Tori Reed loses everything, he sets her free.
I told myself I’d never trust Miles Girard, no matter how brilliant or sexy he may be. His sister, Chloe—Ethan Frost’s wife—is my best friend, but I know just how low Miles will stoop to get what he wants. Now he’s the last thing I want: my boss.
Growing up, I had it all—except for the sense that I belonged. And when a mistake from my past surfaces in the press, my parents don’t hesitate to cut me off.
But surprisingly, Miles offers me a helping hand.
Before I know it, our relationship turns unprofessional in the hottest ways. Of course, he still drives me crazy. But when I’m dealt the ultimate blow, Miles is there for me. And maybe he’s the one I’ve been looking for all along.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Wolff's shallow but fun fourth contemporary, linked to her Ethan Frost trilogy, a socialite fallen on hard times gets an unexpected hand up. Party-hard Victoria Reed is trying to slow her drinking, extricate herself from San Diego's social whirl, and clean up her life, which includes refusing to sleep with her cheating ex. To get back at her, he releases a sex tape recorded without her knowledge while they were together. Her heartless, domineering father who's fed up with her wild behavior and unaware that Tori's trying to turn over a new leaf completely disowns her. With no car, no phone, and no shoes, Tori hikes two miles to her friend Chloe's supposedly vacant home, only to find that her archnemesis, Chloe's brother, Miles, is living there. Miles has been trying to make amends for terribly wronging Chloe, but Tori never cuts him any slack. Though they've done nothing but take jabs at each other, he finds it difficult to turn her away when she shows up in need of help. Extremely lengthy sex scenes dominate the relationship development, but individual growth eventually occurs as both Miles and Tori struggle to fight their emotional demons. This riches-to-rags story leaves a few unanswered questions, but readers will not feel cheated.
Customer Reviews
Strong Contemporary Romance
Tori and Miles have had a agonistic relationship for years. Out of spite, Tori’s ex / action movie star posts a sex tape of him and Tori online and it goes viral. Her father cuts Tori off and leaves her to her homeless, shoeless and at the mercy of the paparazzi. This send Tori running to Chloe’s home. Chloe is away at school but her brother Miles is in residence. When the clips are down, Tori is shocked to discover just who has her back.
It is a story about the fine line between love, hate and sometimes the passion that runs just under the surface.
I love Wolff's ability to bring those extremely steamy romance scenes to life; especially balancing the steam to story ratio. FLAWED leaned a little heavier on the steam then story. Great romance, strong characters and fabulous at bringing that character connection, FLAWED can surely warm up any cold winter night.
I received this ARC copy of Flawed from Random House Publishing Group - Loveswept in exchanged for a honest review.
Hard to get through.
The sample was promising, but I wish I hadn't bought this. I struggled to get through it. It was dumb and there was a lot of unnecessary back and forth. The plot had so much potential, but i feel like a 14 year old wrote this.
Hard for me to put down
I was very moved by this story. Tori seemed very self-centered except when it came to caring for her friend. This included hating her friend's brother Miles. Her life begins a downward spiral, and Miles feels compelled to help her out. Miles was a typical I-know-what-is-best-for Tori who vowed to be independent and begin to rely on herself. Misunderstandings abounded and had me in tears and feeling a need to smack each upside the head. I loved the chemistry between the two as the story progressed. I highly recommend this book.
I received a copy of this story through Netgalley, and this is my unsolicited review.
