Erotic | Romance Erotica Sensual

Jillian Durant decides she deserves more than just a quick tumble between the sheets with her boss, who created a job for her so he could have full access to Jillian while he keeps a wife at home. So Jillian becomes a very expensive escort to rich jet-setting businessmen in need of her company at dinners and meetings, traveling across the world in their personal planes. Jillian is lavished with jewels, clothes and luxury hotels, but it's the secrets Jillian is privy to both in and out of the bedroom that has put her in a serious situation. After realizing an ex-lover is dead, Jillian is forced to leave an SOS message for her twin sister, one only Justine will understand, so Justine can again rescue Jillian from one of her messes. Justine Durant hasn't received an SOS message from her twin sister in years, not since they were separated in foster homes and forced to communicate in secret. Justine's first reaction is to ignore it, especially since the coded message arrives in the early morning hours. Justine's gut reaction is to head straight to Jillian's apartment and find any clues as to how to locate Jillian. Since Justin and Jillian are identical twins, the task of taking Jillian's place in her current life becomes simple and beneficial to figuring out what kind of trouble Jillian is has gotten into now. The intrigue and secrets of Jillian's life are a complete shock, yet Justine finds a passion within herself she is unaware she possesses, all the while leading her on a dangerous adventure. Thea Devine creates a passionate story full of intrigue and fantasy with the ability to shock and awe. Definitely a fun read.

SUMMARY

When her identical twin sister disappears, Justine Durant slips into the sex-fueled, high-stakes life she never knew her sister lived. . . . The text message came at 3:00—“just in time”—the fail-safe code Justine and her twin, Jillian Durant, devised to survive their traumatic childhood. Now Jillian’s missing and Justine immediately leaves her research job, frantic to discover what happened to her globe-trotting model sister. Inside Jillian’s apartment, Justine uncovers a computer file that reveals that her sister is really Jillian Dare, escort to the richest, most powerful, and most insatiable men on the international corporate scene. And it’s clear that Jillian loved—no, lived for—everything about the lifestyle: the fortune she made nightly, the luxurious gifts, the touch of a man anywhere, anytime, with no limits. Searching for clues to her sister’s disappearance, Justine masquerades as Jillian, plunging into a world of paid carnal extravagance and unleashing a side of herself she never knew existed. It’s a thrillingly daring gamble to take, and the stakes are raised when Justine becomes locked in a sexual power struggle with a man who could be her ally or her most ruthless enemy; a man who can bring her to endless ecstasy or drive her to madness. And Justine must play this dangerous game to perfection and win . . . if she and Jillian are to survive.
