A Lioness' Tale is the story of Gabriella Alexis Sandoval.

As the only child of power couple Gabriel and Alexis Sandoval, Gabriella has enjoyed a cultured lifestyle that most only dream of. With summer vacations to Brazil, beautiful homes and fine restaurants, her life was destined to be anything but ordinary.
 
Coming of age at a luxury resort exclusively for wealthy men, building an elaborate sex toy empire and running an elite couples' club, is just a taste of her world. Gabriella's determination is what fuels her fire. When she sets her sights on something, she fearlessly executes with prowess and vigor.
 
She has it all . . . except love. Friends and family alike, have expectations of romance. However, even with a plethora of men to choose from, Gabriella has made it very clear that her comfort zone is in the area of serial dater, where the emotions are detached. It happens to be a situation that works for her. That is, until someone comes along who makes her feel as though love may not be such a bad option, after all.
 
Just when Gabriella succumbs to the possibility of a relationship-complete with strings attached, the moment is complicated by the emergence of the person who once held the key to her heart, and who was the root cause of her reluctance to entertain what lay on the other side of love's door.
 
With what Gabriella deems to be the perfect life solidly in place, will she be bold enough to allow love in at a level that is all-encompassing, or will she continue to guard with care?
