The Scandal - The Escort, #2

My ex-husband and his new wife just revealed that I hired a smoking hot elite male escort to take me to my high school reunion in front of my entire family.

Most women in my position—divorced, middle-aged, their horrified teenage daughter staring at them—would do anything to avoid a scandal. After all, I'm a respectable home decor icon with a segment on the most popular morning show in the country.

I should run from Jagger Holiday

But I want this crazy thing between us to work.

Everything he sees is art, everything he touches is a masterpiece—including me. Through his eyes I'm courageous. Beautiful. I can't turn away. Especially when he leaves the only job he's ever known and starts his life completely over. For me.

Now he's pursuing his photography in Miami and planned a sizzling visit just for me. The bright colors, the architecture, and the heat are totally seductive, but not nearly as much as my lover. I could get lost in this sex-soaked playground. Seriously, is this my life?

But Jagger's worried no one will ever see his art. I think he should join my brand-new design show. But he's hesitating. Is he regretting giving up the luxury and hedonism of his escort life for a suburban mom from Boston?

Too late, I discover his reluctance has nothing to do with me. Because when the cameras start rolling, so does another controversy. Something bigger and badder than we've faced before.

Leah and Jagger's story will continue in book 3.
