Review # 1 was written on 2016-09-12 00:00:00 Jenna Mousley The title looks promising - barter - like a deal - some kind of negotiation - a person has something of value and exchanges it for something else. That never happened in this story. The TSL heroine basically rode the waves of misfortune, until the tide turned and the hero showed up. No deals - no negotiations - she was at the whims of fortune. The story opens with poor little rich girl working in a strip club in South America after she had been duped, robbed and abandoned by her "fiance," forced into the sex trade by an unscrupulous policeman, and is now chained to this life because the owner has her passport. (They're breaking her in slowly - no stripping or lap dances yet - just singing for leering men.) The hero, dressed as a rough sailor, has been hired to rescue her by her rich, (and evil) father. It all sounds good on paper, but it was an agony to read since everything happens in slow motion. The heroine's backstory, the present situation, the "suspenseful" rescue. Then the action grinds to a halt on the hero's boat as they dance around their mutual sexual tension. The big mis is that the heroine doesn't know the hero's true identity and that the picture on the hero's bedside table is his sister, not his girlfriend. Not very exciting. I almost dnf'd it - it was that boring and the heroine was that annoying.

Review # 2 was written on 2009-06-01 00:00:00 Daemerson Moses This book has a different storyline for a HP. Chellie is a poor little rich girl who's kept on a tight leash by her cruel, unloving father. She runs off with a man who she thinks truly loves her, but only wants her money. He uses her and abandons her, and she ends up in the clutches of a prostitution ring run out of a seedy bar. For now, she's singing to pay her way, but it wouldn't be long before they were forcing her into prostitution. A blond stranger shows up at the bar and asks for a private dance. He convinces her to leave with him, that he'll give her a ride off the island and safe harbor on his boat, which she can pay for by cooking. But it turns out that Ash is not who he is pretending to be. Chellie falls head over heels for Ash, even though she knows there's no future for them, since he appears to have a girlfriend, and her father has a far reach. Ash takes the job of finding wild socialite Michelle Greer, as his last mission for his security firm. He doesn't expect to fall head over heels for her. But, the truth threatens to tear them apart, especially with Chellie's weary heart after trusting the wrong man. This was an entertaining read, although not a favorite by Ms. Craven.
