Synopsis
Paige Moore has a fulfilling business designing couture
corsets for her high profile clientele, but her love life is sorely lacking.
Being burned in the worst way possible by Sawyer Burrows has left her guarded
and wary when it comes to men and their motives. When her best friend presents
her with an invitation to The Players Club, she embraces the chance to enjoy a
hot night with a stranger, and finally put her past heartbreak, and Sawyer,
behind her.
Sawyer knows he devastated Paige with his careless actions a
year and a half ago, and he’s lived every day since with those regrets. Now,
seeing Paige at The Players Club, he knows this is his chance to make amends
and prove that there is still something between them worth pursuing. If sensual
pleasure is what Paige is looking for, then he intends to be the man to spend
the night seducing every part of her.
Paige’s surrender is Sawyer’s ultimate goal, but once her
desires are sated, will she give them the second chance they deserve?

Excerpt
The bell on the door to Couture Corsets tinkled, announcing
that a customer had just walked into Paige Moore’s small boutique in Old Town
San Diego, where she designed and sold custom-made corsets.
“It’s just me,” she heard her good friend Raina Beck call
out.
Knowing Raina would just head to the back area of the shop
where Paige did all her designing and creations, she continued hand sewing
small seed pearls to an exquisite white satin corset she was making for a client’s
wedding night.
A moment later, Raina walked past the curtain of glittering
crystals hanging in the doorway that separated the retail floor from the
workroom. “Wow, that looks stunning,” she said of the one-of-a-kind bridal
corset, her voice laced with awe.
Paige glanced over her shoulder and grinned. “Thanks. Once I
add the crystal and lace embellishments along the bodice, this bride is going
to knock her groom’s pants off when he sees her in this corset.”
Raina laughed. “Not a bad way to start off a marriage.”
“What? By getting lucky?” Paige asked humorously as she set
her needle and thread down on the nearby worktable that dominated the area.
“And being totally turned on by your new wife.”
“Speaking of getting turned on,” Paige said with a smirk as
she eyed her cheerful friend. “You’re glowing and smiling all the time, so
things with Logan must be good, yes?”
“Really good,” Raina admitted, her face flushing with
happiness. “And I do have to say, it’s nice having sex on a regular basis,” she
teased.
Paige sent her a mock glare. “Yeah, I wouldn’t know, so stop
bragging,” she grumbled, even though she was genuinely thrilled that Raina had
found a man who absolutely adored her. “What brings you by?”
“I have something for you,” Raina said and handed her an
envelope with the word Welcome embossed in black across the front.
Paige’s eyes widened as she looked at the envelope. “Oh my
God, is this an invitation to your wedding? I can’t believe you didn’t tell
me…” Her words and excitement trailed off as she pulled out the card inside and
read the message granting her a night at The Players Club, an exclusive,
members-only sex club.
“Oh, wow,” she breathed in surprise and glanced back at
Raina. “I thought—”
“If I was getting married, you’d know about it before I sent
out invitations because you’d be my maid of honor,” Raina interrupted with a
laugh. “Besides, I’m not even engaged yet. This invitation is for you,” Raina
went on with a grin. “The Players Club is a place where you can get down and
dirty and freaky with a stranger, indulge in a fantasy, or try a particular
kink that has piqued your interest.”
“I have to say, that sounds very tempting.”
Oh, yes, Paige was definitely intrigued. It had been a year
and a half since she’d been with a man. A year and a half since the morning
Sawyer Burrows had shattered her heart with his betrayal. And the thought of
indulging in a night of hot sex with an anonymous guy was incredibly appealing.
She needed to do something to finally shake Sawyer from her mind and thoughts and
let the painful past go so she could move on with her life.
Easier said than done, but an evening at The Players Club
was a good start to putting an end to her dry spell.
“There is one thing you need to know.” Raina suddenly looked
uncertain. “Logan told me that Sawyer is a member of The Players Club. Which,
in my opinion, could work to your advantage if he’s there the night you decide
to go.”
Paige frowned, not sure how she felt about running into a
man she swore she hated yet who still had the ability to affect her on a
physical level. Yeah, that part drove her absolutely crazy, but she was curious
what Raina meant. “How so?”
“If he’s there, think of it as a bit of revenge.” Raina’s
eyes danced with mischief. “Flirt with other guys and enjoy yourself. Show
Sawyer exactly what he’s been missing and what is no longer his. Men are such
jealous, possessive creatures, and it’ll drive him nuts to see you with another
man.”
The corner of Paige’s mouth curled into a smile as she
thought about her friend’s suggestion. It had been too long since she’d felt
desired and sexy. Combine the bonus of possibly showing Sawyer that she was
over him by letting him see her enjoy another man’s attention, and it really
was a win-win situation.
Her decision made, she met Raina’s gaze and lifted her chin
in determination. “I’m totally down for that.”
About the Author
Erika Wilde (aka Janelle Denison) is the USA Today
bestselling author of over 50 contemporary romances for multiple print publishers.
So, why the new pen name?
As Janelle Denison I’ve always written sexy books, but
lately my writing has taken on more erotic elements that I wanted to keep
separate for readers because not everyone likes their reading material on the
spicier, kinkier side of romance.
However, please be assured that even as Erika Wilde, you will still get
an emotionally layered story with characters you’ll care about and fall in love
with. That is always my goal, whether
I’m writing straight contemporary romances, or more erotically charged stories.
Currently, I’m working on The Marriage Diaries and making
sure that Dean and Jillian enjoy exploring the more erotic side to their
marriage. The series will be on-going,
with no foreseeable ending as of right now, for as long as readers want to be
voyeurs to Dean and Jillian’s sizzling new relationship.
I’m also planning a spin-off series in the future, featuring
the hot military men that work security for Dean at Noble and Associates.
