From the New York Times bestselling author of the Driven series comes a powerful romance about reaching great heights through low depths.
Who says you have to play by the rules to get what you want?
Agreeing to meet Ryker Lockhart is my first mistake. Rich, handsome, and more than intriguing, he thinks blackmail will bend me to his will.
But he’s wrong.
I may have done a few things that weren’t exactly legal, but I have my own reasons for that. The last thing I’m going to do is let some high-powered divorce attorney come into my life, have my body, and rule my heart. Not to mention ruin everything that I have carefully built in just a short amount of time.
But as much as I try to resist him, and against my better judgment, there is something about him that has me agreeing to his proposal.
I’m putting everything on the line for him. I just hope I won’t lose everything when this is all over.
Cocktails and Books received this book for free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect our opinion of the book or the content of our review.
This is sinfully indulgent story filled with suspense, intrigue and passion. It is a sexy and complicated story about two people who meet and never expect a meaningful relationship to develop.
Ryker Lockhart is a very successful divorce attorney. He doesn’t have time to date and decides to use Vaughn’s escort service. Neither Ryker or Vaughn realize their meeting will change the course of their lives. Ryker is impatient, cocky, edgy, controlling, charming and not at all what Vaughn is expecting.
Vaughn is living a double life and when she meets Ryker, he has her questioning everything. Vaughn runs a successful escort service; she is beautiful, sexy, smart and caring but she also has a lot of baggage from her past. In fact, she has so many issues it is hard for her to relate to anyone and she continually tries to push Ryker away.
When Ryker and Vaughn meet their chemistry explodes. They meet under unusual circumstances and are surprised to discover a spark which leads to a fire. They are two cynical people who don’t believe in love or trust anyone easily. This story kept me spellbound and it ends with a cliffhanger, so you have to wait for the HEA.
