If men are from Mars and women are from Venus, then where does lust come from?
Her plan: Nicolette Victoria Ashby had always followed the rules. She was always classy and never trashy. But two years of an empty bed after her marriage failed left her lonely in a way she never imagined. Until a late night cable show gave her a scandalous idea.
It would only cost her five thousand dollars for a weekend of fun, sex and sand with her gigolo, and the idea of a no-strings attached affair had merit after the sting of her divorce. She just had to make sure her accountant didn't find out. She and Maxwell had a love/hate relationship, bickered at every encounter and she wasn't sure if she could deal with his censure with regards to her decision.
His plan: Dominic Maxwell was head over heels for Nicolette. She just didn't know it yet. He watched from afar for five years as Nicolette's husband treated her like a dog and used the courts to take part of her hard earned money. He knew she had been burned badly and was willing to wait until she was ready.
That is until he saw her Amex charges for stud service. Nicolette's purchase of the gigolo didn't fall within Dominic's plans and he wasn't above a little, no, a lot of trickery to get back on track. He had been in love with another man's woman for more years than he wanted to count, and now that she was free, she was going to be his.
