~ Synopsis
~
In this third book in the
sexy, suspenseful “The Secret Life of Amy Bensen” series from New York Times
bestselling author Lisa Renee Jones, we meet Amy’s brother Chad—and the woman
who either loves him or wants him dead.
Six years
ago, Chad’s hunt for a dangerous treasure turned deadly when his family home
was set on fire, his parents killed. Faking his and his sister Amy’s death to
protect her from further retaliation, he set her up in a new life with a
friend’s help, letting her believe he’d died.
But now
the men who hired Chad to find the treasure have found him, imprisoning and
torturing him to learn where it’s hidden. A dark-haired beauty named Gia helps
him escape, promising him access to his worst enemy. And as he tries to unravel
the deep secrets of the past, he starts falling for her…only to discover she’s
not what she seems.
Unable to
trust anyone, Chad focuses on only two things: protecting his sister Amy and
getting revenge. Is love even possible in the midst of heartache?

“Chad.”
Gia’s voice, directly
behind me, radiates through me, and with it unwelcomed white-hot need. Desire. Lust. I tell myself that it’s wrong.
She’s wrong for me, and yet for some damnable reason I can’t begin to
understand, this woman feels right in a way that nothing else has in a long
time. Every muscle in my body tenses in anticipation of her touch, and the moment
her hand comes down on my back, that blast of adrenaline I desperately need
burns through me.
I grab her and pull her in
front of me, stepping into her, my legs framing hers, my hands on her waist,
fingers flexing into the soft flesh there. And when she looks up at me, I see
none of the blame I feel toward myself. The understanding that I didn’t think
she could have is there.
And she’s here.
Not offering words of
sympathy that do me no good—offering
herself. I see it in her eyes, her desire to match mine, and even if I believed
she was still loyal to Sheridan, which I don’t, I’m not sure I would care.
Wrapping my hand around her
neck, I pull her to me, flattening her body against mine, bringing her mouth a
breath away from the next kiss I’ve denied myself too long. “I don’t care who’s
going to hate who later. I just want to fuck you.”
She curls her fingers
around my shirt. “Then stop talking and do it.”
“You can’t handle this part
of me.”
Her chin lifts defiantly.
“Try me.”
“Be careful what you ask
for. You might get it.”
“If you’re trying to scare
me, it won’t work. In fact, it might make me want it more. Just like you want
to escape your memories, I have a few of my own I’d like to forget right now.”
That’s all the encouragement I need. My
mouth slants over hers, tongue pressing past her lips, and the heady taste of
her, all sweet honey and temptation, fills my senses.
