Tina Chen just wants a degree and a job, so her parents never have to worry about making rent again. She has no time for Blake Reynolds, the sexy billionaire who stands to inherit Cyclone Systems. But when he makes an off-hand comment about what it means to be poor, she loses her cool and tells him he couldn’t last a month living her life. To her shock, Blake offers her a trade: She’ll get his income, his house, his car. In exchange, he’ll work her hours and send money home to her family. No expectations; no future obligations. But before long, they’re trading not just lives, but secrets, kisses, and heated nights together. No expectations might break Tina’s heart...but Blake’s secrets could ruin her life. Trade Me is the first book in the Cyclone series.

I enjoyed this until towards the end (last 15 percent) when the plot kind of went off the rails.
I should just set up an automatic preorder for anything Courtney Milan writes. I didn't love this quite as much as ones like [b:The Heiress Effect 13489922 The Heiress Effect (Brothers Sinister, #2) Courtney Milan https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1373761621s/13489922.jpg 19028795] or [b:The Suffragette Scandal 17343236 The Suffragette Scandal (Brothers Sinister, #4) Courtney Milan https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1399859670s/17343236.jpg 24081161], but as far as contemporary romances go, it's definitely one of the best ones I've read recently. I wanted more Maria, so I'm glad to see the next book will be about her! The last twist with Blake's dad came a little bit out of nowhere for me, but I ended up liking where it took the story, so I'm not mad. :D
I wanted to support Courtney Milan after the whole RWA debacle but I'm not really into historical romances so I was really happy to discover that she had a series of contemporary romances. Unfortunately though I just did not like this. I didn't feel any chemistry between the main characters and there was a lot going on that didn't make a lot of sense to me.
