Gold Lies, Black Suits

Briana has it all-money, freedom, and a flawless reputation as the glamorous party girl of her elite prep school. Everyone wants to be her, and everyone assumes she's living the dream. But behind the champagne laughs and red-bottom heels, there's a hollowness she refuses to admit.
When her powerful parents jet off to Europe for three weeks, they leave behind their mansion-and their sixteen-year-old daughter-with only a warning not to "get into trouble."

She plans to do exactly that. Well that's what her parents would think.

But her plans are interrupted when two dangerously attractive men show up at her front door, claiming they were hired by her father for "security purposes." Bodyguards, they say. Polite. Trained. Professional.

Briana doesn't buy it.

They're too smooth. Too well-dressed. Too... interested.

She starts noticing things. Whispers at night. Locked doors. Phone calls that stop when she walks into the room. One of them lingers too long near her bedroom. The other watches her when he thinks she's not looking.

She swears she hates them. Swears they're nothing but hired help.

But hate starts to burn a little too close to desire.

And the closer she gets to them, the more she realizes: they're not here to protect her. They're here for something else-something tied to her father's secrets.

And Briana? She might just be the key to everything.
