Sneaking into Lady Bridgerton’s masquerade ball, Sophie meets Benedict. And, 300 pages later, they live happily ever after.

Since his girlfriend died a few years ago, Jake (owner of a vacation lodge) has perfected his “for one night only” speech. And almost all the single women in town have heard it, except for Kallie (wilderness guide extrodinaire). Before a business deal can be struck between Kallie and Jake, she needs a quick education in the sort of kink his lodge caters to.
Okay, that’s the short version of the romance aspect of the book. The story also includes three over protective cousins, overcoming demons from the past, and a serial killer who has decided Kallie is his next victim. Enthralling and fast paced, I couldn’t put this one down. Actually, a big part of me wants to pick it back up and read it again.
