Nerthus goes by many names. Hiding from an unpleasant past, she keeps her true identity a secret while working as an escort. As she covers an appointment with a mysterious new client for a sick colleague, she thinks it will be a one-night thing as he is known to never book an escort twice. Until he books her again. When her other clients start mysteriously canceling their appointments, she suddenly finds herself in a tricky, but quite alluring situation. She tries everything to ignore his irresistible temptations or else risk getting her fingers burnt. But she risks it anyway. Will Nerthus realize her mistake too late? 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.”

Welcome back to Hollowheaven’s Supernatural Academy, where it’s not just the grounds that are haunted. All I wanted to do was summon my boyfriend because of a dare and show him off to the snobby supernaturals at this crazy school. Instead, I’ve got two ghosts who claim I’m their lost love. Worse. Doing the ritual has proven to everyone here that I’m a witch. But I don’t feel like one. I just want to go back to my normal life. Except the ghosts make me feel more alive and real than I ever have in my life. They haunt my dreams. I find myself yearning for their touch. I need to figure out how to banish them from my heart and life, before I fall for both. But I’m discovering magic and love are not as simple as I thought.

"Funny how some memories never faded. He remembered her laughter and how happy he was when they were together, but he couldn’t recall a single reason for any of their arguments or the resulting days apart that left him aching and resentful that she belonged to another man. He recalled the day they said goodbye, but he barely remembered the days afterward when he drowned his pain in bottle after bottle of rum, hoping to forget her face and the way she made him feel". The last thing he wants to do is play bodyguard to the woman who broke his heart. As the wife of a pioneer in the field of biotechnology, Katherine Stallworth had an up-close view of the ugly underbelly of corporate espionage and the cutthroat nature of competition. When her husband is murdered and her life threatened, she turns to Raheem Miller, the one man she can trust—despite their sordid past. Years ago, Raheem fell in love with Katherine—older, sophisticated, and way out of his league. And nothing has changed. While he’d rather avoid this assignment, he’ll never forgive himself if anything happened to her. In the middle of conducting an investigation into her husband’s death, he discovers a conspiracy that could rock the very foundation of the United States. Now he must bring the culprits to justice while keeping Katherine alive and his desire in check. Easier said than done.
