Synopsis:
When nurse Sara Peters treats celebrity billionaire Trenton Merrick for
a mysterious injury to his forehead, she is blindsided by what follows:
A passionate exchange in the examination room, followed by an invitation
to Trenton's mansion the next night.
Trenton spins a web of deceit and seduction around Sara that both
repels and attracts her. One part humanitarian, the other international
financial mogul, his professional and public life are a curious contradiction.
As Sara journeys deeper into her feelings for Trenton and
begins unraveling the mystery behind his injury, she finds herself
embroiled in a game of trust and betrayal, where the odds are stacked in
Trenton's favor, and the outcome for the loser is too terrifying to conceive.
Excerpt:
Mr. Merrick moves his face closer to mine. I hold my breath, thinking
he’s going to kiss me. Just before our lips meet, he turns his head and grazes
his nose across my cheek. The air rushes out of my lungs.
“I would never hurt you, Sara. You must trust me.”
He sounds sincere and I’m compelled to believe him.
With a sharp hiss, he drops his head to my shoulder and pulls our
bodies together. “Tell me you change your mind.”
“I . . . I . . .” Words fail me as he moves my shirt collar aside and
grazes his teeth across my skin.
“Tell me you’ll see me tonight.”
As he trails hot kisses down my throat, I throw my head back and melt
into his arms,
succumbing to the pleasure that radiates throughout my body. I may have let my guard down, but this time I think I know exactly what I’m doing.
succumbing to the pleasure that radiates throughout my body. I may have let my guard down, but this time I think I know exactly what I’m doing.
“Yes, I’ll have dinner with you tonight.”
Mr. Merrick removes his lips from my neck and plants his hands on my
waist.
“You want me, don’t you?” He stares into my eyes, daring me to deny
what he already knows.
I nod.
His fingers dig into my hips. “Say it.”
“Yes, I want you.”
