What happens when two strong-headed personalities are tied together in a sacred union? Will they find peace, or will it spell disaster? ..... Excerpt: “I warned you, didn’t I, Aliana?” His deep, masculine voice reverberated through the air like silk. Her name rolled off his sinful lips so seductively that it made her want to roll her eyes in reluctant delight. That thought alone made her brows knit in confusion until she heard him continue, “You step into my world, and I will ruin you in ways you never imagined.” Aliana shivered, not only at the warning he had given her far too many times, but also at the way his icy blue eyes pierced her so intensely that it felt as though she might burn and freeze all at once. Ignoring her thrumming heartbeat, she drew in a sharp breath and replied, “You did… but didn’t I say there is nothing I love more than a challenge? If you’re going to ruin me, Gavriel, at least make sure you’re the only one left standing when the dust settles.” His eyes widened ever so slightly before he rose from his armchair and padded across the carpet to stand right before her. The moment his fingers lifted to touch her chin, a jolt of electricity shot down her spine as he leaned in and said, “You want to play a dangerous game, Aliana…. and make no mistake, this devil loves to play.” Tilting her chin closer to his face, he whispered, “So here’s my offer, Aliana…. marry me.” .... The book cover is mine, don't use it.

It might be taboo, but Mena Cabot does not care if it will give her the ultimate face-slapping opportunity. When her boyfriend Finn turns out to be a cheater, Mena does not cry or complain. She simply decides to use his older, richer, more handsome, and generally better brother to make him jealous. After an embarrassing fall lands her in the hospital, Mena wakes up to find her boyfriend's hot older brother by her bedside instead of her boyfriend. Drugged, confused, and feeling particularly mischievous, she does what any sensible girl would do: She claims she has lost her memory. How was she supposed to know her boyfriend was waiting for an excuse to parade her best friend around as his true love? Now she's stuck. She can't remember "her boyfriend," so she can't confront Finn for being a filthy, cheating degenerate. And the more time she spends with Beau, the deeper her lie becomes. In all this, the biggest surprise isn't Finn. It's Beau Orsini. Her cold, infuriating, ridiculously handsome boss who has decided to play along with the lie. He claims to be her boyfriend. He takes care of her. And judging by the way his hands linger and his eyes follow her, Beau seems to be enjoying his new role far too much. Why? Mena knows this is all an act. So why does every stolen glance make her heart race? Why does being in Beau's arms feel safer than it ever did in Finn's? And why is a tiny, dangerous part of her beginning to wish she really had lost her memory? Because pretending to be Beau Orsini's girlfriend might be the biggest mistake of Mena life but it tastes as sweet as sin.
