~ 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?
~ Excerpt ~
I join her at the sink, where she’s
struggling to get the bandage wrapped around her palm. I grab her hand and take
over and our eyes lock and collide, the air instantly thick with a huge dose of
lust-filled distrust.
“You’re going to get caught in here,” she
warns softly, as if she can’t quite find her voice.
“It’s a Walmart in Texas,” I tell her.
“They’re happy if you manage to show up with pants on.”
She laughs despite an effort to stop
herself. “I suppose so. I’m just nervous about getting attention we don’t
need.”
“We’re fine.” I fit some tape over the
bandage on her hand and dump the supplies back inside the basket sitting on the
counter.
“Right,” she agrees. “I know we are.”
She doesn’t sound convinced, and I can’t
seem to quell my need to convince her otherwise. “Don’t let my getting captured
fool you. It took him years to find me. I’m good at what I do. He won’t find me
again. That means he won’t find you.”
“Until you’re done with me,” she murmurs,
cutting her gaze away from me, and for the first time since that bedroom in
East Austin, fear radiates off her. I tell myself to let it go, that she could
be working me over, but I can’t seem to care.
I slip a finger under her chin and force
her gaze to mine. “No matter what your intentions were when this started
tonight, if you help me, really help
me, I’ll make sure you stay protected.”
“I don’t work for him, and I don’t know
why I’m even saying that again. I know I can’t convince you.”
“I told you. Help me. I’ll help you. Okay?”
“Yes. Okay.” She’s not convinced, and the
truth is, neither am I. I stayed away from people until Meg, Amy included, for
a reason. People die when they’re near me, but I’m not telling Gia that, and I
let my hand fall away, settling both on my hips.
She hugs herself and for several beats we
simply stare at each other, until she wets her lips, and I try not to look at
her mouth, or think about kissing her, but I fail. I think about it. In vivid,
I-want-to-fuck-her detail.
“This is what you do?” she asks. “How you
live? Always looking over your shoulder? Is that how I have to live?”
“I, like others in the organization I
work for, find what no one else can find.”
“For a price.”
“Yes. For a price.”
