Cute story. Very hot. I'm not sure how into the whole Virginity Auction I am, but the stories are quick and fun to read.

A short and fast read. Romantic and steamy second chance between Vivi and Dallas, thanks to the Virgin Auction that the Sorority organized so they can get funds to help a friends brother and more.

The premise is not exactly out of this world original but it's one that attracted me because these women are not auctioning their virginity just because. They ALL, together, have a common goal and that's the twist I wanted to read about.

I'm very glad I picked this book up because, not only the twist was well done, the second chance romance in this short story was fantastic. I love me some good damsel in distress and this book had it, without the risk of dying that is.

K Webster wrote this story and I breezed through it from beginning to end without being able to take a break to drink water. It was engaging and engrossing and kept me completely hooked. Now I've had a taste of this author's writing style because I don't remember reading her before.

My only complaint and this is personal, I would have loved to see Dallas and Nolan not getting along for longer. What can I say? I love some good drama (that wasn't a spoiler, so don't worry)

I would recommend this book if you're looking for a fun, short read that will take you away from your regular life. Also, if you love second chance romances, this is the book for you.

Desiring to help a friend and her family who are suffering financial difficulty after tragedy, Vivi takes a drastic step when her father refuses to donate to the cause. With the other girls from her sorority, they set up an online auction to raise the money needed. However, things aren’t looking too good for Vivi when, despite their attempts at safety, things take a darker turn for her.

This is a quick luscious tidbit that was over much too soon. It’s mostly erotica but with a strong romantic prose in between. It’s difficult to say much without giving away spoilers considering the length of the book. There wasn’t enough time to feel a bond with the characters but they were certainly likable, enough so that I would’ve liked to have had a full story about them.

If you enjoy steamy romance about forever love, and finding happiness when it feels so lost, you might consider this for a refresher between lengthier reads.

Entertaining and interesting sexy read. Wonderfully written with strong, intriguing characters. I want to read more from this author. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Now this is romantic!! Easy flow writing, will have you flipping the pages quickly to find out just how love gives you hope.
Vivi auctions off something she already gave to her first love, Dallas.
Dallas doesn't entirely make sense in his actions. He pushes them apart only for them both to suffer.
It's short, sweet and oh so romantic to the last page.

I really like the idea of these fun and sexy short stories from Carina Press and can't wait to read more. K. Webster is a go-to author of mine--I'll read anything she puts out, without even reading the blurb. So, I was excited to see what she had going with Bidding for Keeps.

Vivi and Dallas's story was cute but the steam level was somewhat less than a normal K.Webster story. The premise behind Vivi auctioning off her virginity for a worthy cause was a neat idea, but the story seemed to lack a lot of details. We get that Vivi had a thing for Dallas when she was younger, but I would like to have known more. It just seemed awkward for Dallas to reappear and to have had access to that much cash to be the winning bidder.

The story itself is very fast-paced so if you don't mind not having a lot of details, this is one you're going to want to pick up. I just found it more sweet than I did sexy.

Vivi and her sorority are in need of money. Due to a fire which injured a sorority sister's brother who was a firefighter. They want to help and raise money for his ever growing medical bills. So, they auction off their viginities.....

Vivi has a high bidder, and goes and meets with him....Turns out, its Dallas, her Dallas, her childhood friend, her love, her crush her everything, until he turned his back on her years ago after taking her virginity.

I love love love love this story. I am a total sucker for friends to lovers romance but when it goes back far back, I'm all in. This was a quick read for a K. Webster book. Steamy, happy, sweet book. I loved it.

I'm always a little hesitant about novellas or short stories, especially if they aren't extensions of larger works that I have read from. Insta love isn't my favorite and so often that has to happen in short stories. But it didn't feel like instalove with this. It wasn't cringe-y and I was here for it! I had never read this author before but fully plan to find some full length novels to read because if you can bring the heat with just around 50 pages and it not feel forced then I can't wait to see what you can do with 300 or so pages! This story starts when Vivi is set to auction her virginity to help a sorority sister in need. But said virginity has already been claimed. If you're looking a quick, fun, steamy story then I would definitely check this one out. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Vivi is auctioning off her virginity for a good cause that's important to her, the only catch is that she isn't a virgin. That has been taken by a man who shed rather remain nameless. Now shes gotta go off and meet this stranger and hope for the best.

This was such a quick and steamy read took me like 45 minutes to finish maybe less. It would be hard to talk about this book without spoiling it but I'll just tell you if you are looking for a good steamy read with a bit of a quick story then this book just might be for you. I didn't even check out the description of this book when picking it up but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise.

This is a short, sweet, and sexy read! I loved this second chance story. Looking forward to reading more books in this series!

This is book one in a mini series by Carina Press. This book in the Sorority Secrets is so good. I absolutely love K. Webster’s and she sure knows how to tell an addictive story.

Vivi decides to auction up her virginity for a cause close to her heart. However she’s not a virgin.

Dallas broke her her heart. He’s now not bidding for sex but he’s bidding for keeps. Can Vivi forgive him?

A short but oh so good story. I can’t wait to read more from this author and I’m looking forward to reading more of this series.

I've read a few of Carina Press Dirty Bits books before so I already know what to expect (lots of sexy, little plot LOL) and this one is no different.

Bidding for Keeps is a short and sexy second chance story between Vivi and her brother's best friend, Dallas, and I like it.

Engaging. Playful. Light-hearted. Sexy. Offbeat. Comes to mind after reading Bidding for Keeps .
With her characteristic writing style , humor and wit Ms. Webster has written another fun and hot short story. The brisk pace , likeable hero/heroine, tongue in cheek plot and HEA ending made this story a delightful and enjoyable read; the perfect little escape from reality break.

I received an ARC of this book through NetGalley for my honest review .

"I knew our chemistry wasn't something that would just go away. No, it's here to fucking stay."

What can I say? I'm totally digging these 'dirty bits' and they are just the perfect size to give a new-to-you author a try. What it's doing for me is adding to my #AuthorStalker list. I've read two so far and loved both of them.

Vivi is a loner. After having her heart broken she lost her smile and has not been willing to risk her heart again, even for college girlfriends. But in spite of her determination to resist, the urgent need of one of her sorority sisters softens her hard outer shell and she decides to offer herself to the cause. There's only one person who can dispute her claim to being a virgin and she hasn't seen him in three and a half years. So, why not auction off her 'fake virginity' to the highest bidder and do some good, right?

When a stranger bids an astoundingly high amount for Vivi's virginity her second thoughts become a luxury she can't afford. Her sisters are depending on her and, "What's between my legs is apparently the answer to everyone's problems at the moment." So, she bites the bullet and prepares to sacrifice herself. After all, what does she care, her heart's already been broken and her body is just a shell that was left behind.

Oh my...such heartache in so few pages. I can't get over how hard I fell for these characters. It's too late for me now, I'm addicted to this Dirty Bits series by Carina Press. I'll be keeping my eyes open to see what they have in store for us next. They will have a hard time topping this one. The line forms here...

Fun, quick and smexy read with heart that drew me in from the first page and kept me turning the pages until the very last word.

Now when I say quick, I mean this one is a quick read ~ think short story/slice of life type of read ~ and there are times when they tend to...well...fall short in certain areas, but in this situation that isn’t the case. I mean I can’t say more than I liked Vivi and Dallas, but I can say that I felt their connection, the emotional turmoil that simmered between them and that I wanted them to work things out. I will admit that I would have liked a little more grovelling, because it’s me, but in the end I enjoyed how everything worked out.

As for the reason behind the auction. Not gonna give it away, you need to read about it for yourself, but there is a pretty damn good reason for why these girls are going “there”.

So if you’re looking for a quick, smexy read this is definitely one to check out!

⭐️ 3.5 “Ultimate Smut” Stars ⭐️
Bidding for Keeps is a good very sexy short read! As always, K. Webster delivers dirty sexy moments and emotions in this book! I must admit I was really intrigued by this whole virgin auction in a sorority. I enjoyed the chemistry between Vivi and Dallas that was palpable in spite of the length of the story. You feel their unresolved feelings for each other. This is definitely a hot second chance romance with the brother’s best friend trope to top it all. Bidding for Keeps is ultimate smut and offers a good entertainment.

Oh, Dallas. I loved this story. These two had to be together. Second chances are sometimes the best of all!

Can I just say what a fantastic start to this multi author series. Bidding for Keeps may be a quick read but it was packed with so much. I love that the sorority sisters are coming together for a good cause in a unconventional way. In this K Webster did a wonderful job with Vivi and Dallas. I love the heat between them even after all these years. Vivi may not be a virgin but no one needs to know that detail while she is up on the auction block. Once her auction is over hang on for a hot ride. Dallas is her brothers best friend and has been in love with Vivi for a long time. This is their second chance and boy is it a doozy. Dallas and Vivi have this forever love that you can't help but to root for. If this is any indication of how this series is going to go then I say you better start one clicking them all so you don't miss out on any of this sorority fun.

Short but sweet and steamy read. Viv wants to help the animal shelter destroyed in a fire. Her sorority sisters plan an auction-to auction off their virginities to help with the cost.

Viv has a little secret-she's not a virgin. She gave that to her brother's best friend, Dallas. He took it and the next day broke things off. Guess who holds the winning bid? Yep Dallas is successful and has never gotten over Viv. Will they get their happily ever after?

This was a short, fun read with a little sexy thrown in. I enjoyed the story line and the second chance aspect of the book. Vivi is in college and auctioning off her virginity to raise money for a sorority sister. Dallas is a blast from her past. Find out how they reconnected in this overall enjoyable read.
