Pretty and hard-nosed investigative journalist, Virginia Tremont, has talked her editor into giving her an assignment – to find out what happened to her former teenage celebrity crush, who suddenly and mysteriously disappeared from the public eye ten years ago.

Susan Chalmers and her billionaire lover, Channing Crawford, are now prisoners of Channing’s ex-girlfriend, Alia. Alia’s fury over the past knows no bounds as she tortures Channing and secretes Susan to a citadel in Baghdad. And now the endgame looms. Channing will have to make a terrible choice: the woman he loves . . . or the lives of the people he is responsible for.

Now in an unusual sexual arrangement with her ultimate boss, Susan Chalmers is experiencing a whirlwind of sensations and emotions that she has never known before. For Channing Crawford – stunningly handsome, dominant and ruthless billionaire CEO – is anything but predictable. Then someone from his mysterious and dangerous past enters their world.

Susan Chalmers has been abducted by the mentally unstable Hugh, her billionaire lover’s twin brother. Incarcerated in a secret tropical location, she is forced to submit to his every whim. Hugh demands her ransom: half of Channing’s fortune within five days . . . or she will die an unspeakable death.

Having staved off a near-rape by the twin brother of billionaire CEO Channing Crawford, her lover and dom in their unusual business arrangement, Susan Chalmers is holed up in a mansion guarded by mercenaries. She has no idea the game is about to get deadlier.
