She’s not part of the deal. Until she is. Dominic Hoffman controls everything in his life—including his lovers. Money gives him power, and that’s exactly how he likes it. Harper Bennett knows his kind. She works for the elite agency he uses, but she doesn’t offer the kind of company he pays for. Until one night, when she’s the only one available.

Their eyes meet, and he realizes that leaving two years ago didn’t help at all—because the temptation hasn’t vanished. It has only become irresistible… and now it wears heels.
