Sterling Vance just wants to be a partner in the Deuces Wild agency he works for. He's doing all the work now that the other two are happily involved with the loves of their life, so he feels he deserves a partnership. He has his life fairly well planned out including his love life and those plans do not include the pregnant daughter of a friend. He has no way of knowing offering to help would end up in a game of PROVING HIS WORTH.

Angelina McFee is trying to stand on her own two feet. She's made some stupid mistake including getting pregnant by a guy who wants nothing to do with the baby. She doesn't want to turn to her parents but when Sterling steps in and offers his help, she finds herself staying at his house. She never imagined that Sterling would start to feel like hers. She is not going there ... she has too many problems in her life to let her heart fall for this man.

PROVING HIS WORTH is book three of author Cari Quinn's Deuces Wild series. Sterling is such a mixture of tender, irritating and sexy that I couldn't stop reading just to see what he was going to do and say next. Angelina did come off as a rich little rebel until you got deeper into her personality and realized under the piercings and tats was a woman who wanted someone to love her and believe in her. The dance they did was at times funny, with the online dating site, other times way too hot to handle. There are a lot of complications some of their own making but others from the outside that will have your heart racing and not in a good way.

I admit PROVING HIS WORTH isn't my favorite of the series, it seemed a little rushed in places and choppy in others, but I did love that Sterling laid claim to Angie's baby even in the face of an irate (Angie's) father. He proves you don't have to father a child to be a father. Can't wait to see what else Ms. Quinn comes up with.
