HER: Me and my money-maker are only going to be young once. I give them three months to use my body however they see fit. Then they’ll pay me more cash than I could see in ten lifetimes. Frankly it’s a lot better than ending up on a stripper pole with a coke habit and a broke boyfriend who keeps trying to pimp me out anyway. I’ll take a one-way ticket outta that country song, thank you very much.
So I show up at the time and place they say, submit to the doctor’s exam, and put on the fancy dress and string of pearls. Then I walk out into the bright ballroom…
HIM: It’s my duty to break her. The second I see her in front of me at the Midnight Ball—eyes challenging, along with her vulnerable, trembling mouth, I know she’s mine.
Ten minutes later, I have her bent over the bed while all the other Lords of The Order watching on in approval.
The only way to win my seat in the secret society is to pass all of their debauched trials. Each of which has one single, depraved to break her.
Being a Lord is part of my legacy. I can’t fail.
But the more I learn about this beautiful, mysterious woman who’s lived such a difficult life before she landed on the doorstep of the Oleander Mansion, the more I know I'll do anything to be the man she deserves.
Please note that these books are dark romances with intense scenes and very dark fantasies. Includes the connected standalone books in the previously titled Breaking Belles Elegant Sins, Beautiful Lies, Opulent Obsession, Inherited Malice, Delicate Revenge, and Lavish Corruption.
