Casey doesn't have much luck in the dating department, so when her girlfriends ditch their girls only weekend for a couple's retreat, she's forced to take desperate measures. Refusing to be the only single one, she does what any quick-thinking girl would do: She lies.
It was almost too easy hiring a stranger to pretend to be her hot, rich, successful boyfriend. What she didn't plan on was him being hot, successful, and way too much trouble for her liking.
Jim was in a slump in his everyday life. He was bored and needed something to spice up his life. Accepting a gig to play the perfect boy toy was not what he had in mind, but it was too good to turn down.
What he didn't plan for was the smokin' little spitfire who hired him. It's a con, a job, a fraud. But the more she's in his presence, the more he realizes she may be more than just a ruse.
Three days at a lake house.
Two strangers who cause a lot of mayhem.
One little lie.
The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist. But who said the devil was a he?
In my world, she was out to cause havoc on all our lives. She'll use the one thing I care most about to control me-force me into her Elite world, filled with sin, deceit, and power. And under her spell, I'll lead a sinister brotherhood of seven at one of the most prestigious universities in New Orleans.
Seven tasks set forth by the devil herself, promising nothing less than the forbidden fruit of power. What they don't understand is it will all end in bloodshed and regret. They call me the alpha. The one in charge. The one with pride bigger than any task I could be given. And my pride won't let me be anywhere but at the top of the food chain until she gives me what I truly want.
My task is Meghan Benedict. She's too pure for me to touch, too good for me to ruin-and the only thing standing in my way to freedom.
Accept your sin wisely, for the tasks given to earn your place are not for the weak . . . they're for The Elite. As they say, pride comes before the fall.
