USA Today bestselling author Christi Caldwellβs Wicked Wallflowers series burns hot as two rivals meet in the flesh and feel the heatβ¦
Adair Thorne has just watched his gaming-hell dream disappear into a blaze of fire and ash, and heβs certain that his competitors, the Killorans, are behind it. His fury and passion burn even hotter when he meets Cleopatra Killoran, a tart-mouthed vixen who mocks him at every turn. If she were anyone else but the enemy, sheβd ignite a desire in him that would be impossible to control.
No one can make Cleopatra do anything. That said, sheβll do whatever it takes to protect her siblings―even if that means being sponsored by their rivals for a season in order to land a noble husband. But she will not allow her head to be turned by the infuriating and darkly handsome Adair Thorne.
Thereβs only one thing that threatens the rules of the game: Cleopatraβs secret. It could unravel the familiesβ tenuous truce and shatter the unpredictably sinful romance mounting between the hellionβ¦and a scoundrel who could pass for the devil himself.
