Uncovering the truth is her specialty
As a forensic accountant, Mia Sauter could usually tell when people had something to hide. She made her living exposing secrets while concealing her own. Then, in Vegas, she met a clever, ruthless man who called himself Addison Foster. One year later, she’s still haunted by his betrayal.
He’s a natural born liar
The truth of him had long ago been buried. Foster was only one name of many; he’d been so many men, he’d lost count. Reinvented as Thomas Strong and hell-bent on revenge, his mission is about to be compromised by the one woman capable of exposing him…
Reunited, they confront the explosive chemistry still crackling between them. But their chance meeting will have consequences, for a ruthless madman has his own deadly agenda. The question is—if they survive the fallout, will he choose love over vengeance?
Excerpt from SKIN TIGHT
There was violence in his eyes, but his touch was gentle.
“You threatened me yesterday,” he said silkily. “That wasn’t smart. Now I know you’re a danger to me. What are we going to do about it?”
She seemed belatedly to register the darkness in him. Some people never saw it at all, or not until it was too late. Mia took a step back, but she was too slow. He curled his fingers tighter around her forearm and drew her in.
“Let go of me.” Her voice shook slightly, belying her bravado.
So she had sense enough to fear him. He wished that didn’t make him feel sick. But overall, it was for the best.
“I don’t think so,” he whispered. “Remember how you wanted me to kiss you, Mia? You practically begged for it.”
“That’s a lie.” She turned her face away, probably hoping he wouldn’t realize she was lying now.
He trailed his fingertips down her cheek, bracing for the horror of seeing her eyes go fuzzy. “Don’t worry, princess. I’m about to give you exactly what you want.”
