Blackmail. It should have been easy enough, pay the ransom and the unwanted exposure would quietly go away. Instead, I paid the ransom and ended up here, with two-black eyes, bruised ribs, and a mysterious stranger sitting in the corner of my hospital room. I can’t let anyone find out the truth, not even the magnetic Mason Tanner, the man who’s been hired to solve my case. My secret needs to stay with me, no matter the cost. I’ve been doing this job long enough to know when a woman’s lying. Against my better judgement, I’m hired to find out who beat the crap out of one of the world’s top super models and keep her safe until I do.

Reminding myself I’m here to do a job, I intend to do it quickly, so I can get the hell out of this god forsaken city and far away from the entitled, hellcat who is Melinda Morgan. less
