Excerpt
DETONATIONS OF RED.
Flashes of white.
Explosions—visible to only me—momentarily hindered my vision.
Blinking, I tried to make sense of Deloris's text message.
“ALEX GOT INTO A CAR WITH ALTON FITZGERALD. WE ARE FOLLOWING.”
Though the plane ascended higher and higher, my heart fell to an
abyss, the place where my stomach used to be.
I read it again.
The words refused to change.
Emotions boiled within me, creating a turbulent concoction
capable of destruction. I looked toward the small window, expecting to see
swirling clouds, but saw only the deceiving blueness of a complacent sky.
Despite the misleading calm, disbelief, hurt, and rage swirled through my body,
rushing through my blood, tightening my chest, and weakening my knees.
Unconsciously, my fingers balled, creating fists that needed to connect with
something—with anything—as I increased the pressure on the phone. Surely it
would crack and shatter.
I read the words again and again.
They didn't make sense.
Charli wouldn't do that. She wouldn't willingly get into her
stepfather's car.
Something terrible had happened.
I'd witnessed her apprehension and disgust when it came to Alton
Fitzgerald. She'd shared her fears and some of her stories. He was the other
devil, the one she spoke of. No matter what he'd done to her or not done to her
in the past, being with him was dangerous. She knew that and so did I.
Charli wouldn't willingly go with him, not after she'd promised
me she'd stay safe.
I clenched my teeth, hearing her words in my mind, her
promises...her lies.
When she refused to wait for me for this trip to Savannah,
Charli had promised she'd stay with Deloris.
According to this text message, she hadn't.
That's what the words on my screen were telling me. Deloris's
message confirmed that Charli had done the one thing I forbade her from doing.
She'd put the one person whom I'd entrusted to her care in danger.
She'd willingly sacrificed herself.
I needed to understand why.
I needed to speak to her, but I couldn't.
Since the plane had just left the ground, I couldn't make a call
until we were high enough for the Wi-Fi to be activated; however, that didn’t stop
my rant. Pounding the tabletop before me with the butt of my fist, a tirade of
words spewed forth. The outburst, infused with obscenities, echoed uselessly
through the cabin.
Wisely, Isaac remained quiet, rightfully assuming I'd share more
when I was ready. The flight attendant, though, was new. She didn't know me.
“Mr. Demetri, is everything all right?” she asked, her eyes
bigger than dinner plates as she hurried around a wall and moved toward me.
With each step she teetered one way and then the next, her body thrown off
balance as the plane continued its ascent.
“No! Nothing is all right. Go sit down before you fall. There’s
nothing you can do.”
“Sir,” she said, looking down at the phone still in my hand. “If
we’re not yet out of the range of cell towers, we will be soon, but once we
have Wi-Fi you'll be able to Face Time.”
I reined in what little self-control still remained. This wasn't
my first flight. “I’m aware.”
“However, if you don't want to wait, the plane has a satellite
phone. Would you like to use that?”
What? Why didn’t I think of that?
Because I’m too stunned to process.
“Yes. Get it right away.”
Her knees buckled as she maneuvered toward the cockpit, her
hands supporting her one way and then the other.
“I’M CALLING ON THE SATELLITE
PHONE. I WANT DETAILS!”
I sent the text to Deloris, not caring if it would send or if
she would get it. Just pushing the letters gave me something to do.
As soon as the flight attendant placed the satellite phone in my
hand, I began dialing the longer-than-normal string of numbers. With each
second that I waited for the connection, my blood pressure rose another notch.
The rush coursing through my veins filled my ears with an internal roar, muting
the engine’s drone.
Ring.
Ring.
Ring.
"You have reached—"
Though the plane continued its climb, at the sound of her voice, my stomach took another
nosedive. Hitting the disconnect button, I called Mrs. Witt. She probably
should have been my first call, but I needed to try to reach Charli. I wanted
to know that I could.
Now, I knew that I couldn't.
As the satellite phone again waited to connect, I reached for my
own phone and pushed the app on Charli's tracker.
Nothing.
My mind reasoned that it wasn't because she was unreachable. She
may have gotten into a car, but she wouldn't take off the necklace. There was
nothing on the app, because we didn't yet have Wi-Fi access and the cellular
service was unavailable.
As soon as the satellite phone began to ring, Deloris answered,
“Lennox we're following her...”
“What the hell happened? Where is she? Where is that bastard
taking her? Why the fuck did she get in his car? Why didn’t you stop her? Did
he threaten her?”
“She’s a few hundred yards ahead of us on the street. We’re
making our way out of the city. According to her tracker, her heart rate is
elevated, but otherwise, we believe she's safe. According to the GPS it seems
as though we’re headed toward her home.”
“Her home?” I asked incredulously. “No, Deloris, her home is in
New York.”

Betrayal
One week. No future. No past. No more.
Alexandria Collins 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.

Or did it?
Lennox ‘Nox’ Demetri and
Alexandria ‘Charli’ Collins had every intention of following it but rules are
made to be broken. In CUNNING they are reunited with Nox setting down new rules
for the game and Charli having no choice but to follow them.
Now, once again, the game has
changed. Nox and Charli’s hot sensual encounter has grown into something more
but it is threatened with secrets and regrets. Is it their love and intense
sexual chemistry that’s pushing them together or something darker, a
puppetmaster behind the scenes pulling the strings on their love affair?
Shadowy villains lurk around each
corner and everyone is suspect as Nox’s and Charli's pasts collide with the
present and threaten to compel them back to their predestined fates.
Can deals brokered in the past be negated by something as pure
as love and as steamy as the attraction shared by Nox and Charli? Or was it all
a deception—starting with that very first meeting?
