New Release & Reviews - Screwed, Lili Valente

April 19, 2022 | Posted in:Release Day Blitz, Review

My best friend’s older brother excels at many things—being a bossy grump, a jerk, and…this hopeless virgin’s fake fiancé?

I need a guy who understands that this is all pretend, and who better than a man who can’t stand me—and vice versa? Besides, Derrick is the kind of cocky, confident, successful dude bro my gram will adore.

We’ll convince my ailing grandmother I’m not going to die alone, Derrick will honor that favor he owes me, and we’ll part ways as enemies with NO benefits.

It’s a rock-solid plan…until it isn’t.
Turns out I may have made a slight miscalculation.

Now Derrick is charming my family, sweeping me off my feet, and making me want crazy things.

Suddenly, I think I might actually want him to be my first and maybe…my only?

Yeah, I’m screwed.
So bleeping screwed.

Sandra's Review

Screwed in the second book in the Virgin Diaries series by Lili Valente. Each book can be read as standalone but I recommend reading the series or at least the novella. If you read Scored then you have met Harlow and Derrick, well…this is their story!

Harlow has been on the hunt for a man who doesn’t want love but a man who is could give her a good time. A man to punch her V-Card and be a nice guy about it. Then, she can move on with her life and find love down the line. She was not about to be like the other women in her family. She refuses. But, that is not what she needs at the moment. What she needs is a fake boyfriend for her family reunion. All her gram wants before she leaves on her next adventure is to know that Harlow has found the love of her life and is happy. Harlow wants to give her that peace and if Derrick aka Satan is the only man to help give her that, then so be it.

Derrick and Harlow’s relationship is complicated. The tension along with the attraction is there but they aren’t doing anything about it except ignoring it with all their willpower. But now, they will be in the same place, in the same suite for a week faking to be in love. Harlow is afraid to put herself out there again after being rejected years ago. Derrick is afraid it’s too late to put himself out there. They have some explaining to do for sure. Can they get their heads out of their asses and finally get it together?

These two!! Their banter is their foreplay. It can be sweet. It can be funny. It can be flirty. It can be anything. This story is so much fun!! One week of ups and downs, a crazy family, and surprises in the bedroom. I loved Derrick and Harlow. I also loved Gram! I can’t wait for what is up next in the Virgin Diaries.

Kara's Review

Screwed is the second book in the V-Card Diaries series by Lili Valente. I loved this enemies-to-lovers, fake fiancé romance! Derrick and Harlow have mad chemistry. Some if it is left over hostility from years ago, but most of it is smoking hot attraction. Harlow needs a fake fiancé to meet her grandma and her family. Derrick happily agrees. Their hatred has thawed since they kissed and now spending the night in the same room is going to push them over the edge. Harlow is ready to get rid of her V-card and Derrick is just the man for the job. Derrick can’t believe his luck. He’s had feelings for her for a long time and now’s his chance to show her how good they can be together. As long as she doesn’t run. Will Harlow realize her feelings before it’s too late? Oh man, I love Derrick and Harlow! Their chemistry, their banter, their heat. It’s all off the charts! Another fantastic story from Lili Valente!
