Hired for secrets by genesined

Journalist Sofie has to seduce a handsome escort for an exclusive tell-all article without getting lost in temptations that could become deadly. "Sometimes you need to find the secrets within to unveil the ones around you." Sofie Black is an investigative journalist whose name is on hit-lists from crime lords, drug cartels, and corrupt organizations.

Until she meets Philip, the charming but aloof escort to the rich and powerful. He proves he's more than a handsome face or unwitting informant when he encrypts his seedy secrets in ruthless riddles. In fact, he is the architect of Club Elandra, flipping gender stereotypes and making him the puppet master to an influential female elite. Sofie breaks free from Philip's world of pretense, temptation and denial when a murder rattles his golden cage. As the prime suspect, Philip realizes this isn't a game anymore and that the only person able to help him now is Sofie. Will Sofie write her story and risk Philip's life, or will she protect him and bury the crimes she'd vowed to expose?
