"Our next is a girl of eighteen summers. She has smooth, unblemished skin and has been schooled in the arts of love and seduction. But most of all, she is untouched." my auctioneer and captor said as he paraded me in front of the men. They eyed their fill of my body but they were forbidden to touch. "Bidding starts at two hundred pieces of silver." I was returned towards the stage as the men stated their prices. I was a rare commodity: a slave girl yet untouched, eighteen, fertile when the land has been struck with a plague that left women barren. The price for me reached eight hundred silver coins and many have already backed down. "Two hundred gold coins!" a man spoke up. It was he, the man who stared at me with passion and desire in his eyes moments ago. That was quite a sum for a slave! "Two hundred gold coins going once, twice... Sold to the King of Ivaris!" the auctioneer shouted. There it was. My fate was sealed. I am a love slave and it is just my luck that I am sold to the same cruel king that destroyed my kingdom. *A story of love, of gods and goddesses, of reincarnation and magic, intrigue and betrayal, of kings and war...*

“Wait.” She lays her hand on his chest. “Where will you be? This is crazy….all the things that have happened tonight, that man being killed…I don’t even know how or why he was killed. We were obviously being followed by that car, you were forced to bring me here. We’ve got to talk about all of this. I’m scared and I’m going out of my mind worrying. I don’t know where my friend is. I’ve been taken away from my home, my step-dad? Please can you talk to me? Just for a little while. I know you’re tired, but I need to talk about this." Santo sighs and removes her hand from his chest but he doesn’t let it go. He’s dealt with dictators, warlords, drug dealers and crime bosses. He makes deals with ruthless business men and he’s rescued people all over the world but he can’t seem to rescue his heart from her. He’s falling fast and he doesn’t know how to stop it. He worries if he gets in too deep he won’t be able to keep her safe now that he knows more about what’s going on at La Croix’s. She doesn’t realize how close she is to it and he doesn’t know if she will believe him if he tells her, but he can’t take that chance anyway. “Alright, let me shower and change and I’ll meet you downstairs.” He lets her hand go. “Thank you. I’ll meet you there.” She steps to the side moving out of his way.

***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain. *** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
