Publisher Description
A sensual tale about the risks and rewards of falling in too deep-and loving it.
PASSION COMES WITH A PRICE.
Tired of living a lie, Arianna Perconti leaves her fiancé at the altar and runs into the arms of her family's fiercest rival, Jason Stone. Hoping to cash in on their 'friends-with-benefits' arrangement while hiding out from bitter relatives, Ari instead finds herself falling deeply, desperately in love with the sexy hotelier. Jason is everything she never knew she wanted-yet she will do absolutely everything to show him she means business. In bed...
CAN THEY AFFORD TO LIVE WITHOUT IT?
Jason lives in the fast lane and has the race cars to prove it. A born adrenaline junkie, he must admit that Ari is the perfect partner for his heart-pumping bedroom games. The problem? The relationship is starting to deepen, but is Jason really cut out to be a one-woman kind of man? The question haunts his days, only fueling the passion he and Ari share during those hot, hot nights. But when an estranged sibling enters the picture, threatening to take away everything he holds dear, Jason is forced to make a decision: Say goodbye to his wild ways or risk losing Ari forever?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Rock hits her stride in this compelling, high-energy sequel to At His Service. Arianna Perconti refused to participate in a sham marriage arranged by her domineering big brother, Leo, and intended to better the family's business prospects. She left her fianc at the altar and ran into the arms of hotelier Jason Stone, her secret lover and Leo's fiercest rival. During their year-long affair, Jason and Arianna "lived in the moment," enjoyed "mind-blowing sex," and denied their growing love. Now Arianna's desperate to prove she's "a grown woman, an independent thinker"; she attempts to manage her charity for kids with cancer without Leo's help, while Jason's determination to escape his past as a con-man escort to wealthy, lonely women leads him to address a threat from loan sharks with assistance only from his shifty brother, Deacon. When Arianna and Jason's plans both backfire, creating a public scandal and endangering Arianna's life, Leo proves an invaluable ally. A fast-paced plot, appealing lovers awakening to their true feelings, unnerving antagonists, and entertaining sex scenes make this an absorbing, satisfying romance.
