And will she be able to resist her forbidden desire for her mysterious new client? *** "Grabbing my chin, he leans in to capture my lips into a kiss. My free hand clasps his shirt, while his hand slides beneath our coats to my waist to pull me closer. He invades my mouth with his tongue, tasting every inch of it. As he breaks the kiss, I’m still in a haze and look up at him with half-closed eyes. My body is about to throw a tantrum, as he speaks, making a shiver ripple through me.”

One night to have her completely at my mercy. If only I had known my battle with Maeve would start a war. Maeve: Jack is the only one who can help me. Too bad, he hates me. But I have no choice but to go to him. It turns out, hate is a powerful motivator, and I just handed him a way to punish me. He offers me his help—for a price. Everything in his world has a price. One night in his bed. He’s everything a woman would want, so this should be easy. Only, I’m a virgin, and he terrifies me. I should run, but I won’t. I can’t. I just pray this one night doesn’t destroy us both.
