One week. No
future. No past. No more.

has one week to live carefree—no ghosts of her past or pressures of her future
haunting her. Reinventing herself as "Charli," she is
knocked off her feet by a sexy, mysterious man who brings her pleasure like she
never imagined. With her heart at stake, she forgets that decisions made
in the dark of night reappear in the bright light of day.
"Some of my
tastes are unique. They aren’t for everyone. I understand that.”
Lennox
"Nox" Demetri is wealthy, confident, and decisive—he knows what he
wants. From the first time he sees Charli at an exclusive resort, he knows he
wants her. Although he is usually the one to make the rules, together they
agree on one:
One week. No more.
When betrayal comes
from those closest to Alexandria, she must decide how far she is willing to go
to survive. Choices are not always easy, especially when they involve the
heart, body, and soul. After all, Infidelity is a business, and some rules are
meant to be broken.

cheating if you're doing it to yourself?"

Excerpt
I motioned around
the patio. "Is this what you do? You save women from the resort leaches
and lure them to your lair?"
"My lair? Am I
Batman?"
"Are you? I
don't know."
He smirked.
"If only I could make a living at doing just that, but alas, no. You're my
first rescue."
I stopped my reach
for a piece of cheese and looked back up at him. "You're first?"
"My first
rescue,” he clarified. “Hardly my first."
"Why?"
He lifted his glass
toward me in a toast. After I lifted mine, he said, "To you, Charli with
an I, and to learning more about you."
After our glasses
clinked and we both took a sip, I asked the question that I'd been dying to
know ever since our morning encounter. "You seem to have a clear
advantage. You know my name, but I've yet to learn yours."
"Do I?"
"Do you
what?"
"Do I have an
advantage?” He leaned closer. “Do I know your name? You see, I had the resort's
reservations scoured. I wanted to send a gift to your room and confirm our
dinner, yet Charli was nowhere to be found."
I took a deep
breath. "Well, I'm here with my sister. I guess my name isn't on the
reservation."
"You're
sister?"
"Yes, and
you—if I were to have the reservations scoured?"
The sun had now fully
set, falling below the water and the darkening sky was beginning to fill with
stars, especially over the water.
"Would you
believe, Batman?" When I didn't respond, he said, "Bruce Wayne?"
Though I pursed my
lips, I felt the twinkle in my eyes.
