She
sacrificed everything to keep him safe…
Five years ago, con artist Lisa
Smith broke the first rule of hustling when she fell in love with—and
married—her mark, billionaire Sawyer Hayes. The erotic nights spent acting out
her darkest fantasies with her husband and Master were the happiest of her
life. But when her ruthless father demanded she kill him and take his money,
she had no choice but to disappear without a trace…or lose him forever.
He’ll
risk everything to have her again…
Now Sawyer has found her, and he has
an indecent proposal: submit to him for seven nights and he’ll grant her the
divorce she desires. Forced to pretend she no longer loves him, each night
spent in his arms is exquisite torture as they reignite their intense passion
through role play and ménage. But when a deranged killer out for revenge
targets Lisa, she must finally trust Sawyer with the secrets of her past…or
neither of them will live to see the future.
Warning:
Scenes depicting BDSM, fisting, MMFMM, consensual non-consent, and references
to abuse
Excerpt #2 (Rated PG)
Lisa turned
and caught sight of Rachel walking toward her with two men by her side.
It took
only a moment for it to register.
The long
blond hair she loved to tug on during rough sex.
The stubble
lining his jaw that used to scratch the skin of her inner thighs as he worked
her over with his mouth.
The roguish
and lighthearted appearance he maintained in public and the dark dominance that
lurked beneath the surface.
It was him.
He was
here.
Her Master.
He had
found her.
She blinked
a few times, trying to see if maybe she was imagining that the man she’d run
from four years ago was suddenly only
feet away and talking with her friends as if he knew them. That was impossible,
right?
Her heart
galloped a wild beat, and the sounds of the crowd disappeared under the roar of
her pulse.
She wanted
to run from him.
She wanted
to run to him.
All the
sorrow and regret she’d buried deep down inside came rushing back with a force
that nearly bowled her over. And when the ghost from her past stood right in
front of her and looked at her like a stranger, the glass of red wine slipped
from her shaking hand onto the green grass, the liquid pooling beneath her
heels.
Seemingly
oblivious to her shock, Rachel smiled, a twinkle of mischief in her eyes. “I’d
like to introduce you to Logan’s friend, Sawyer Hayes. Sawyer, this is Lisa
Smith.”
Logan’s
friend? Sawyer was Logan’s friend? This was the man who had helped Rachel and
Logan in Las Vegas when they were framed for murder and running from the FBI?
“Hello,”
Sawyer said cordially, standing so close she could feel his body heat radiating
off him and smell a scent that reminded her of the best days of her life. “It’s
nice to see you again, Annaliese.”
Her mind
was a jumbled mess.
Like she
was prey caught in the sights of a hunter, she became entrapped in his eyes.
She
couldn’t breathe.
Couldn’t
speak.
Couldn’t
move.
“You know
each other?” Rachel said, her brows wrinkled in confusion.
“You could
say that,” Sawyer said slowly, still holding Lisa captive with his eyes. “She’s
my wife.”
“Lisa is
the woman who conned you?” Logan asked incredulously.
Shame
heated her cheeks, and she suppressed the threatening tears. Her friends would
hate her when they discovered what she’d done. Not that she deserved any less.
And what
did it matter? She was about to lose everything. She wouldn’t be surprised if
she was arrested at any moment.
Rachel took
her hand, but she still couldn’t look away from Sawyer. “I’m sure if she did,
she had her reasons.”
Yes, she
had her reasons. Dark, dangerous reasons that sometimes woke her out of her
sleep in the form of violent nightmares.
And now
with Sawyer’s appearance, her nightmares were one step closer to becoming true.

Info
A sucker
for a happy ending, Shelly Bell writes sensual romance often with a bit of kink
and action-filled erotic thrillers with high-emotional stakes for her alpha
heroes and kick-ass heroines.
She began
writing upon the insistence of her husband who dragged her to the store and
bought her a laptop. When she’s not working her day job, taking care of her
family, or writing, you’ll find her reading the latest smutty romance.
Shelly Bell
writes the Benediction series for Avon Red Impulse and the forthcoming
Forbidden Lovers series for Grand Central Forever.
