Cinderella never had to deal with this crap.
Jane isn't entirely sure that Cinderella got such a raw deal.
Sure, she had a rough start, but didn't she eventually land a prince and a
happily-ever-after? Meanwhile, Jane is busy waiting on her demanding, entitled
sisters, running her cleaning business, and . . . yep, not a prince in sight.
Until a party and a broken shoe incident leave Jane wondering if princes---or
at least, a certain deliciously hunky billionaire---maybe do exist.
Except Brock Wellington isn't anyone's dream guy. Hell, a prince
would never agree to be auctioned off in marriage to the highest bidder.
Or act like an arrogant jerk---even if it was just a façade. Now, as Brock is
waiting for the auction chopping block, he figures it's karmic retribution that
he's tempted by a sexy, sassy woman he can't have. But while they can't have a
fairy-tale ending, maybe they can indulge in a little bit of fantasy . . .

Review:
The Bachelor Auction by Rachel Van Dyken was a phenomenal read!
Brock and Jane quickly became two of my favourite characters to read about this year! They were so incredibly dynamic, that you can't do anything else except fall in love with them!
This book definitely has its elements of Cinderella and a fairytale. What those elements are, you need to pick up this novel and find out for yourself!
This novel is one of my favourite's from this author, and I definitely recommend everyone picking it up and reading it!
5/5 Stars!
Excerpt:
“Jane.” It was a whisper, it was a question, and
then his mouth was on hers—harsh, forceful, but so inviting she whimpered at
the contact and leaned into him, begging him with her body to take what she
couldn’t voice aloud.
It was a bad idea.
He was a bad idea.
Taken.
Ready to be married off.
But here, in this moment, he was hers.
So she kissed him back with as much passion as she
possessed, her hands digging into the front of his shirt while his teeth nipped
at her bottom lip.
His hands slid beneath her shirt, unhooking her
bra with ease as he nudged her thighs apart.
“You feel so soft,” he murmured against her mouth.
“Perfect.” Another plundering kiss, his tongue flicking hers before his lips
slid down her neck. “So damn good.”
With a moan, she pressed as close as she could
against him, nearly riding his leg in an effort to get more of him.
“That’s it,” he encouraged while she clawed at
him.
“Brock!” Bentley’s voice pierced the air. “Did you
need help?”
Brock froze above her, his face filled with
irritation. “Open that door, Bentley, and I’m selling every car you own and
replacing it with a Honda!”
Silence.
“You don’t mean it.” The knob turned.
Jane’s eyes widened in alarm as Brock quickly
moved away from her and tossed the blanket…over her head. Right, like that was
going to look normal. She pulled the blanket off her face and tried in vain to fix
her bra while frantically pulling her hair back into a ponytail.
Bentley entered, took one look at both of them and
smiled. “Clearly this room was dirtier than we thought?” He tilted his head at
Jane. “Or maybe not dirty enough?”
“Out!” Brock barked.
“But—”
“Go!”
“Fine,” Bentley grumbled. “I’m leaving. I just
thought you should know that Grandfather called and wanted to know how the maid
was working out. I told him that you’ve been helping her since she sprained her
ankle. He was concerned about her finishing the job.”
“What did you say?” Brock grabbed Bentley by the
shirt and gave a little shake.
Bentley held up his hands. “Chill. I told him that
she would make a full recovery, that she refused to sue, and that you were
taking care of the situation. Because that’s all you’re doing, right Brock?
Taking care of the situation…” He peered around Brock at Jane.
Feeling suddenly more naked than she actually was,
she covered herself up with the blanket.
What had she been thinking?
It was beyond unprofessional.
Tears burned the backs of her eyes.
“Thanks,
Bent.” Brock sighed, running his hands through his already mussed hair.
Bentley saluted him then added quietly. “For the
record, any girl that can get Boring Brock to bend the rules is a keeper.”
Brock bit back a curse as Bentley shut the door.
“Boring Brock?” Jane asked.
“It’s about as bad as it sounds.”
“Well, I’m Plain Jane, so…I understand.”
He turned. “You’ve never been plain a day in your
life.”
“I think you’ve already learned that you don’t
need to give me pretty compliments to get me to kiss you.”
“You have seven freckles. You press your lips
together to keep yourself from saying things you shouldn’t. You hum when you
clean, and though I’m not sure what the tune is, it’s familiar. When you eat,
you watch people rather than your own food, and I’m just going to come out and
say it: you eat like an animal, the most erotic thing I’ve ever seen.”
Jane covered her face with her hands. “It was
flattering until you said that last part.”
Brock laughed. “Seeing a woman dig into her food
like she hasn’t eaten in weeks? It’s one of the most erotic visions I’ve ever
had.”
Emotion flashed across his face as he made his way
over to her and kissed her again, pulling away with her name on his lips.
“Jane, I want you.”
“Thought I was just the help.” The walls around
her heart started to slip; she felt it in the way her body rose against him. He’d
noticed things about her nobody ever had, he was helping her, and he was
beautiful. Was it so wrong to want this? For herself? Once in her life?
“You’re more than that, and you know it.” His eyes
locked on to hers as his deep voice washed over her.
“You’re getting auctioned off in two weeks and you
know it.”
He paused, his expression going completely ice
cold before he looked away and then back at her. “And if I wasn’t? What then?”
“Then…” She bit down on her bottom lip. “I’d ask
you to kiss me again.”
