Tease - Kimberly Zepeda - Bog

"I need you like a heart needs a beat."
Bryan Jones is a hardworking businessman who likes his space and isn't open to trying out any new things that may force him out of the space he's created for himself. His long-time friend, Harvey, has been trying to introduce him to several kinds of fun for years but never succeeds. However, things change one day when Bryan takes up a wild offer from him as a surprise birthday package to get the man off his back. He lets Harvey know that he doesn't want anything too drastic, but to Harvey, something light means paying a pretty stripper an exorbitant sum to surprise his friend right in his home -a personal space he doesn't let strangers in.
Ella Mayor is a luxurious stripper/exotic dancer who took up the work as a means to take care of herself and her financial obligations. Being in the job for quite some time and too pretty for her own good, she is highly-priced and only privately performs for rich clients who can afford her fees; Harvey employs her services as a birthday present to a friend. Things don't go as she expected, and she breaks her core professional rule - no feelings for clients.
But does the heart ever care about personal spaces and professional rules?
