*** Just a few intro chapters - full book available on Amazon, or you can read the original version for free on Wattpad *** Pay your stake. Roll the dice. Do the dare. Getting divorced at twenty-five sucks. Teaching over-confident rich kids when you ought to be designing handbags for Mulberry sucks. In fact, every single aspect of Daisy Fitzgerald's life is one big fail. But when Xander, a veritable Knight-in-Shining-Cricket-Pads, knocks her off her wedge heels, Daisy topples into his world of It-girls, players and Michelin stars. At a party, buoyed up on champagne and escapism, Daisy agrees to play Forfeit, the ultimate game of dares. Round One was a fun way to pass an hour, Round Two wasn't for the faint-hearted, but no one wants to stake £5,000 to play Round Three, not until they're persuaded by a vitriolic social media campaign that's about to go viral. £25,000 is up for grabs, but the game's called Forfeit for good reason. Blackmail, betrayal, revenge... move over Gatsby, there's a new bunch of bored young things in town. *** Caution. Forfeit's rated at PG-13, but it does contain strong language and scenes of a sexual nature. Just sayin'. Cx *** Being open and honest, I'll only be posting the first 30% or so of #Forfeit here. If you like it and want to read the rest, it's available on Kindle. It won't break the bank - 77p, 99c are the launch prices and the Kindle App is free! Keep posted for chances to win signed copies and Kindle freebies. If you feel cheated that you can't read it all for free, the first/ original draft of Forfeit is still on here. It's posted as a book in its own right, but it's also at the end of the new #Forfeit chapters in this version. Thanks for reading. Cx
