~ Book Description ~
Looks can be deceiving…
Emmy-winning journalist
Alexandra Reed returns to the DC area with two goals in mind—care for her
ailing mom and steer clear of devastatingly handsome Crockett Wilde. But
the man who stole her heart, then broke it, is impossible to avoid. As her life
spins out of control, she finds pleasure in her secret escape—a sex-play club.
And that’s where things really heat up…
Tech CEO Crockett Wilde is at
the top of his game, but beneath his calm surface lies a raging volcano. When
he finds the monster who abducted his sister, he’ll unleash a decade of pain.
The one person who can subdue his demons—beautiful, headstrong Alexandra—wants
nothing to do with him. Yet, he’s determined to set the record straight and not
let the love of his life get away.
As Alexandra follows a
trail of suspicious incidents at the kink club, Crockett seizes the opportunity
to prove he’s not the bad guy she believes him to be. Together they unmask an
underworld of evil. But it's the moment she goes missing that changes
their lives in unimaginable ways.
~ Excerpt ~
As
Colton set the champagne on the island,
Crockett said hello to the kitchen staff. Movement on the screened porch caught
his eye. Alexandra and Colton’s fiancée rose from the sofa and hugged. Though
the women had been sitting in the dark, he recognized Alex right away.
And he couldn’t
look away.
“How long has it
been since you’ve seen Alexandra?” Colton asked.
“Eleven years.
She’d just graduated high school.”
The two women
scooted inside. “Too cold.” Brigit’s teeth chattered and Colton pulled her
close.
Crockett had liked
Brigit immediately. Petite, blonde and crazy smart, she was Colton’s equal in
every way that mattered. But more than that, she made him happy.
Alexandra’s eyes
grew wide. “Crockett.” Her blue lips quivered.
Blood pounded
through his veins. She’s gorgeous.
Large, caramel eyes blinked up at him. Dark brown hair flowed over her bare
shoulders. Her elegant red holiday dress showed off her womanly curves, but her
breathtaking beauty captured his heart.
“Hello, Goth
Girl.” As they stared into each other’s eyes, he felt like he’d come home. And
eleven long years compressed into mere minutes. He remembered how her eyes
sparkled when she smiled at him, or that her sweet kisses could soothe his
karate injuries. And how she’d undo him with her passion.
He smiled. Her
gaze slid from his eyes to his mouth, then back into his eyes. The corners of
her lips lifted. Then, a flash of anger shadowed her pretty face.
She flicked her
head and squared her shoulders. Alexandra Mitus in defense mode. His heart
tightened. That rigid posture had been his last image of her. Goddammit. She’s
still pissed at me.
“Thanks for
talking, Brigit,” she said, her attention still fastened on Crockett. “Excuse
me, I’m going to check on Mom.” She walked away. Before vanishing around the
corner, she glanced back at him.
He grinned. Not that pissed.

Safely
out of view, Alexandra heaved in a shaky
breath while trying to appear nonchalant. But she was on fire. Crockett Wilde
had shorted her mind. She hated the power he had over her. Always had. My god,
he’s gorgeous.
From the moment
she’d laid eyes on him, at fourteen, he’d rocked her world. The summer after
she’d graduated high school, they’d fallen crazy in love, or so she’d thought.
Seeing him now had
awakened the best memories and the worst feelings. Clearly, time had been good
to Crockett Wilde. Gangly no more, his massive, sculpted body was
eye candy for her lonely soul. She’d always found
him handsome, but when he’d pinned her with those baby blues she knew she was
in trouble. His chiseled cheekbones and strong jawline made looking away
impossible. Like years ago, his undeniably sexy accent wove a ribbon around her
heart.
