In this sexy installment of the Miles High Club series from bestselling author T L Swan, a billionaire playboy goes incognito on a backpacking trip in Europe. But how long can he hide from love? I'm wealthy, powerful, and able to get any woman I want. So why do I feel so empty inside? In search of a deeper me, I take a sabbatical from my privileged life. One year of backpacking around Europe: a new identity, no contacts, and no money. Not a bad plan, I think. Until I get there. A crowded hostel room, body odor, and beer bongs--there are no words for the fresh hell I've landed in. But amid the chaos, I meet my new roommate, Hayden Whitmore. She sleeps in the bed opposite me, and I openly admit to staring at her more than I sleep. Beautiful, innocent, and smart. Not my usual type but perhaps the perfect woman. There's just one small problem with the divine Miss Hayden. She's totally unaffected by my charm. Nothing is working, and now, I've been friend zoned. What? But the good thing about me is that I'm an incredible problem solver, and I've come up with a diabolical plan. I'm going to slide right in under her friend zone. Be the best damn friend she ever had, hold her hand, make her laugh, and spoon with her in bed. But now there's another problem. Hayden is the one who is sliding under my skin, and maybe friendship isn't enough.

With each new book in this series, that hero is my favorite. I wasn�t sure if Christopher was going to make the cut, but holy heck�he totally won me over and wormed his way into my heart. I will not be forgetting him for a long while.
Christopher had a lot to learn as he set out on his backpacking trip across Europe. I thought for sure he�d throw in the mini towel early on, but he stuck it out despite the smells and crazy characters. I began to fall in love with this hero that on the surface didn�t offer much in the way of any emotional depth.
While he was attracted to Hayden from the beginning, this is not the type of storyline where the hero immediately fell in love with the heroine and wanted only her. Instead, he slowly began to transition from the playboy he was into someone that became an incredible hero. Watching it was hilarious, moving and definitely sexy.
I�m really not about the heroine, but Hayden did make her mark with me as she was such a great heroine. When she was struggling, I felt the pain and when she was happy, I was just as ecstatic. She was the perfect counterpoint to Christopher as she was honest and upfront with a background that had given her a sense of calm that she brought into her relationship with him.
When this couple faced a major conflict, I sobbed at the result. I worried that the end was going to be contrived to make things work or that the author would force Hayden into a position that went against who she was at heart. Not so. Along the way to their happy ever after, I found myself crying even more as Christopher took a step that I had been hoping for all along but was unsure of the outcome. While I had plenty of tears in the last part of the book, I had so many laugh out loud moments leading up to it. Literally laugh out loud as in a burst of laughter that I couldn�t contain. So glad I was alone when that happened.
This is a lengthy book and it was difficult to set aside. I found myself thinking about it during those times and anxious to get back into the story. It�s filled with secondary characters that were fun and brought their own humor to the page. That included his family, particularly his brothers as well as Hayden�s father who I loved as he got to know Christopher. These are the types of characters that I�d love to see again in a novella that updates us on this couple�s relationship.
All of that to say, I absolutely LOVED this book and I didn�t even touch on what were some of the steamiest scenes I�ve read in a while. Definitely a fun, sexy, emotional story well worth reading.
