Tainted Beginnings

I should have known Nick was the devil when he first smiled at me.

But I couldn't resist the irresistible.

Especially when the devil came in the form of a sinfully hot Italian man that looked like he stepped out of a forbidden fantasy.

Of course, I said yes, when he asked me to spend the night with him.

After all, this was Vegas.

I came here to forget the disaster at home with my ex-husband and former best friend.

The night I spent with Nick was perfect.

Until I saw him do something I shouldn't have seen.

I ran to protect myself.

But what happened in Vegas followed me home.

Now I'm in danger.

And he's the only one who can save me...
