Genre: Romance/Erotica
Author: Georgia Le Carre
Publisher: Georgia Le Carre
Format: eBook
Time is running out for Lana Bloom. She needs money desperately and fast. And all she has left to sell is her beautiful body. When she walks into that exclusive restaurant she does not know that the highest bidder will not be the rich man she has accompanied into the restaurant.
Utterly confident and
breathtakingly handsome, Blake Law Barrington
is the fourth generation of an illustrious banking family. He has everything he desires, and everything
under control. As is the custom in the
great, old houses, marriage is a time of consolidation and expansion. He is due to marry Victoria Montgomery,
daughter of the Fourth Earl of Hardwicke.
If he had left that restaurant five
minutes earlier he would not have seen the girl in the cheap orange dress and
the six-inch high plastic platforms walk in.
excerpt
Rupert directs
his astonished, vicious eyes at Lana’s.
‘You offered yourself to him too?’
Lana stares mutely at Rupert. His eyes move derisively, hatefully over
her. She feels herself cringe.
‘Does he know
how much you charge?’
‘Do you doubt I
will be able to afford her?’ asks Blake.
Rupert shrivels
the way a leech that has had salt thrown on it does. ‘This is why you invited me here, isn’t
it?’
‘Yes.’
‘What a joke!’
he taunts, but his jibe lacks any real bite.
‘The great Barrington
can’t find his own whore. He has to
steal mine.’
‘I didn’t steal
her,’ Blake notes reasonably. ‘I just
offered to pay more.’
Rupert’s eyes
bulge, bug-like. ‘She’s just a cheap
bloody tart. I’ve just finger-fucked her
out there,’ he taunts maliciously, jerking his dandruff-laden head in the
direction of the door.
Lana feels
Blake’s hand tighten around her waist.
‘Consider it an unearned freebie, then,’ he says quietly, but there is
warning in the calm words. A warning
that is not lost on Rupert. The air
becomes tight with tension. Lana looks
from one man to the other. It is like
watching two lions fighting for supremacy.
But her body knows which lion she wants to win this fight.
Rupert
shrugs. He knows he’d be a fool to go
against a Barrington. He has much to lose. ‘If you think I’m going to fight over her
you’re mistaken. Have her.’
He turns on his
heel and leaves.
Blake lets go
of Lana. She realizes she is
trembling. She leans against the desk,
hating herself, but unable to stop—nothing is more important than the money—she
asks, ‘Did you mean it about the money?’

Georgia Le Carre lives in England, in an
old 19th century romantic cottage surrounded by a magical garden filled with
fruit and walnut trees. When she is not
feeding words into her laptop, she is either curled up in bed with a box of
chocolates and a good read, or lost in a long walk in the woods. Especially on
moonlit nights. And often with the man
of her dreams.
