About this ebook

 

From USA Today & Wall Street Journal best-selling author Emma Slate comes a billionaire standalone romance.

Hadrian Rhys is every woman’s dream.

The Scottish billionaire is handsome and shockingly masculine. He looks like a modern Viking in a suit.

At first glance, he’s perfect…

But something dark lurks beneath the surface of his manufactured facade.

And it entices me in spite of my better judgement.

So, when he offers me a contract to spend six months with him on his private island, I say yes.

Night after night in his bed, Hadrian makes me unravel. He plays my body like he owns it. But he doesn’t just want my pleasure—he wants my ultimate surrender.

He demands the truth from me, and begins to uncover carefully guarded secrets…

Secrets my mother died to protect.

Over time, I want to give in. What is it about this man that makes me want to yield? Why does my resistance crumble in his presence?

My mother warned me not to trust anyone. But maybe—just maybe—Hadrian Rhys is powerful enough to save us both from what’s coming…

Ratings and reviews

What a book. Such a powerfully gripping and emotional story, with strong characters, both female and male. Emma writes so passionately that you are totally drawn into the storyline and don't want it to end. If you haven't read the SINS box set (1-7), download it now. Also Wreck and Ruin. You won't be disappointed. I love how the characters appear or are referred to in all of these. Enjoy.

Another greatttt read by Emma!! Hadrian is such a man, could easily sink my teeth into him as much as I did this book 😜 Love how it inter-links with The Sins too. You don’t need to have read that series to read this, but if you haven’t then put that next on your list too!! ❤️

I absolutely loved this book!! Hadrian Rhys is literally the Alpha of Alpha males. Emma did an excellent job with this book and these characters and put a different spin on the whole "mafia" trope. Hadrian is goals!!
