I was invited to read this book by the publishing company. With a packed schedule I wasn't sure if I could do it. But being the book whore that I am, I couldn't resist and did it. And am so glad I did. It was a great read.“Sell in Scarlet” is the first book in the Love Inc. series. In the beginning you think you are going to read about a love triangle between Elizabeth, Hunter and Cross but it flips and you find out that you are really reading about Elizabeth DeVille and Hunter West.This is a story with lots of twists and turns.  It is told in the perspective of Elizabeth and Hunter. Hunter is a tortured hero who is being blackmailed for a crime he didn't commit but had little way of proving it. And Elizabeth "Lizzy/Libby/Scarlet" is a young 23 year old v-card holder who has suffered from having a messed up family life. The characteristic I most liked about Lizzy was her loyalty. She is the type of person anyone would want in their corner. When her best friend Cross is in a motorcycle accident and no one is there to pick up the bills, Lizzy decides to sell her v-card in order to get the money. This leads her to Love Inc. that is owned by Marchant, Hunter's best friend. She strikes up a deal with him to help her sell her v-card under the alias Scarlett. They help teach her how to be sultry and sexy. When Hunter, who has harbored feelings for Lizzy for awhile now, gets wind of what she is doing, he throws his name into the hat.What happens next is hot and heavy. You want so much for these two to get together. I don't believe any of this would happen without Lizzy's ability to fight for what she believes in and who she believes in. Hunter's attempts to keep her at a distance are done in vain. Lizzy is one tough bitch and I loved her. I am looking forward to reading the other two books in the series to see what happens next.
