In the dark, he kisses her…
Not knowing who she really is….
When a blackout hits Chicago, billionaire Darius King makes the most of it with an irresistible stranger. But then the lights reveal the woman in his arms is the woman he hates—his best friend’s widow! His new plan: entice her into marriage to protect his friend’s legacy. But wild attraction and explosive secrets could make that arrangement very inconvenient…
Forbidden passion ignites under the guise of darkness! Naima Simone did NOT disappoint in her Harlequin Desire debut! With an exciting start to the story, she quickly reveals enough past drama to catch the reader’s attention from the very beginning, and holds it throughout with the relationship brewing between Darius and Isobel and also with the back story hanging over their head that we are dying to hear all about. The story was fast paced and packed with steam. Looking forward to more in the series!
Billionaire Darius King is less than pleased when a blackout hits Chicago and has him stuck in darkness in the middle of a party. When a delightful stranger takes his mind off of the discomfort, he doesn’t even try to fight the attraction that is flaring red hot between them. They might as well enjoys themselves while they pass the time right? Only when the lights come back on and he realizes just who it was that he was getting hot and heavy with, let’s just say he’s far from pleased!
When Isobel Hughes realizes it was her late husband’s best friend that enchanted her during the blackout, she knows he’s going to pitch a fit. He hates her and wants her far, far away from him and Gage’s family. When he verifies that she still has something that would benefit Gage’s family, he sets out to finagle his way under her skin so she’ll agree to marry him and let him control the access to her prized possession.
Thank you for this wonderful review! And I’m beyond thrilled you enjoyed The Billionaire’s Bargain! <3
