Blurb: 
Blaire Reese is a party girl. She likes booze, boys, and sex, and has no idea what she wants to do with her life... until she's approached by the CIA to join an elite squad of undercover agents trained in the art of Seduction and Sexual Manipulation.
Now she's in a world where sex is used as a tool, and the people are looked at as nothing more than puppets. Project Cathouse was designed from the ground up by the CIA to teach girls like Blaire how to use their sexuality to enslave the emotions of any person they desire, and then use that person for their own agendas.
Blaire is on board with her training until she falls in love with Drummond Scott, the top male trainee at the Cathouse. But how can she convince a man trained as the ultimate seducer that her love is not only genuine, but that he should love her back?
When emotions are liabilities and sex is a weapon, how can Blaire protect herself from being hurt? What is left for her to trust? When you're patriotic enough to become a whore, is it still possible to ever believe in love?

I received this book as a review request from the author and at first glance I thought to myself "What a horrid name for a book" but I gave it a chance anyways, considering that age old saying not to judge a book by its cover... Let me get this part out of the way however, this book is not for the faint at heart. This is most assuredly about SEX. While the scenes could use some more elaboration and could have been made to be more explored in details, there WERE indeed quite a few sex scenes. Enough to make it an NC17 book.  At first, I was very unsure about the dialog for this book due to many new age IM and Texting shorthand and quite a few teenage familiar acronyms including but not limited to "ZOMG" and "O rly?". I really had a hard time really digging into this book and being able to take the time to enjoy this book due to the shorthand used. I feel that not only did it dumb down Blaire, but also made the author's writing style a bit downrated by default. I was able to understand most of the book's shorthand however, it felt like this was more of a story that was being told via text message or maybe more like you were reading a journal of someone in Blaire's position. However, with the psychology taking you in circles, if you did not pay close attention, one could get lost easily.  There is potential and the story-line is very promising, but I would consider using a different editor!

This book gets 3 shields!
