DECEPTIVE INNOCENCE

In this new 3-part e-serialization from the New York Times bestselling author, a beautiful young woman out for revenge falls in love with the one man whose secrets are as dangerous as her own.

Ever since Victoria’s mother died in prison while serving time for a murder she didn’t commit Victoria’s been focused on one thing: revenge. She knows her mother was set up by the Grifts, a powerful family who was either protecting themselves or a business interest from criminal charges. Now she’s determined to take them down - from the inside. George Grift is both the head of the family and an international banking corporation, and Victoria’s sure that the best way to get to him is through his youngest son, Lander.

Lander is an obvious target. He’s working in the family business but clearly has an attraction to danger and rebellion. He frequents the dive bars of Eagle Rock rather than sipping martinis in the trendy lounges of Beverly Hills. Plus there’s something about him … an underlying rage that seems strong enough to make him vulnerable… at least that’s what Victoria concludes after observing him from afar. She gets a job bartending at his favorite dive and uses her looks and street-smart charm to seduce her way into his bed and to a degree, his life. Her plan is to get access to his family’s homes and offices so she can discover their secrets--secrets she can use to destroy them.

But it turns out all her research and distant observations of Lander didn’t prepare her for the man he is. He’s enticing, intelligent, mysterious and much more complicated than she ever imagined. Plus their sexual chemistry is off the charts. He’s the enemy, she knows that…but despite her anger and resolve she finds herself moved by Lander in ways that she didn’t think possible. But of course he doesn’t know who she is, or why she came into his life. When he finds out she’s sure both her plans and her heart will be crushed… until she begins to realize that Lander’s secrets are as dark as her own.
