Sometimes it only takes a minute. A connection of eyes across a room, and everything changes. I was a cocktail waitress with a fondness for partying and meaningless sex.
He owned half of Vegas, with the reputation to match. I should have turned away. Instead, I stepped closer. Then, the lies started.
Rumors spread.
Stalking commenced.

He tugged on my T-shirt. “I am a businessman, Bell. I’m open to negotiations.”
He didn’t understand. All his money, all his power, and he didn’t understand the simplest thing about a woman’s heart. It wasn’t up for negotiation, and my biggest struggle wasn’t in where I would live, but if I could protect that heart from him. I shook my head and tried to find my way back to a safe place of reason. “I told you not to contact me again.”
He sighed, his eyes studying mine, and when his hands slid upward, underneath my baggy tee and up to the curve of my small breasts, he saw the change in my eyes, the weakness of my composure, the depth of my need. “I tried, Bell. I tried to leave you alone.”
His hands tightened and his mouth crushed against mine, soft velvet that took as much as it begged. My body reacted and I reached for him just to stop from falling.
I’ve kissed a lot of men in my life. Our first kiss in The Gold Room seduced my mind. This one broke the first chain around my heart.
