Excerpt:
The high roller room. Of course a Hughes would be allowed into any room, but itβs interesting to me that they donβt even ask. They know him by sight.
Glasses clink. Chips clack. Low laughter rolls beneath it all.
Finn puts down a small stack of hundreds. Itβs immediately replaced by chips. He puts the entire stack in front of me. I feel my eyes go wide. βThis is too much.β
βI know what youβre worth, Morelli.β
Itβs not that Iβm a frugal person. I was raised in luxury, and I like nice things. Money doesnβt impress me. Thatβs what comes from being raised an heiress.
I wouldnβt blink an eye at an expensive dinner or some other purchase.
βListen, I understand trading money for things. But I donβt understand gambling. Itβs trading money forβ¦ what? Risk? The chance to lose everything?β
βFor fun, sweetheart. Donβt you ever pay for fun?β
A snort is not quite a ladylike answer. But itβs true. Even the money I spend on behalf of my family doesnβt feel recreational. No, itβs about society. Status. And business.
I run my fingertip along the stack of clay chips. Itβs a lot of money to spend on fun. And maybe I donβt feel like I deserve it. The dealer calls for the ante, and I push forward a five hundred-dollar markers. Thatβs the entry amount. The minimum just to play the game.
It makes my heart pound.
Or maybe itβs Finn, standing so close to me on the stool.
Heβs only standing so close because the rest of the stools are full, Iβm sure. Heβs only leaning near me so he can see the cards on the table. If my heart beats faster, thatβs only because itβs been so long since Iβve had a manβs warm breath brush my temple. Since Iβve felt him against my back, almost intimate despite the public setting.
Cards are dealt.
I donβt play at casinos, underground or otherwise, but I know the basics. The pairs and the straights and the flushes. Which is how I know the cards in my hand are a whole lot of nothing. Suddenly that five-hundred-dollar ante feels like a fortune. It feels like a loss.
Why did I think this would be a good idea?
Disappointment sinks in my gut.
Then a low voice murmurs in my ear. βPatience. Good things come to those who wait.β
My breath catches at the masculine purr. It feels like sex surrounding me, sensual cashmhere that makes my eyes close in bliss. βIβve been waiting a long time.β
Iβm not sure where the words come from. I didnβt feel like I was waiting. Iβm not Aurora sleeping in a forest for a kiss from prince charming. I have no interest in kisses.
And Finn Hughes is no prince charming.
Blurb:
Finn Hughes knows about secrets. His family is as wealthy as the Rockefellers. And as powerful as the Kennedys. No one knows that the men in his line have a debilitating, early-onset illness. He’s managed the business from a young age while his father served as the figurehead. All the while knowing there’s a ticking clock on his ability to lead.
Eva Morelli is the oldest daughter. The responsible one. The caring one. The one who doesn’t have time for her own interests.
Especially not her interest in the charismatic, mysterious Finn Hughes.
A fake relationship is the answer to both their problems.
It will keep the swarming society mothers from throwing their daughters at him.
And it will keep Eva’s mother from bothering her about marriage.
Then the fake relationship starts to feel real.
But there’s no chance for them. No hope for a woman who’s had her heart broken. And no future for a man whose fate was decided long ago.
Welcome to the Midnight Dynasty… The warring Morelli and Constantine families have enough bad blood to fill an ocean, and their brand new stories will be told by your favorite dangerous romance authors.
WARNING: This book is intended for readers eighteen years old and over. It contains material that some readers could find disturbing. Enter at your own risk…
