The auction was an opportunity of a lifetime…or so I thought. After a bad breakup, a busy career and no time for a personal life, I went to a bougie party and auctioned myself. The highest bidder would get one night with me. I’ve slept with plenty of bad dates for free, why not make it worth my while? One night with a billionaire would pay off all three years of my law school student loans. Afterwards, I could quit my thankless soul-crushing corporate job and focus my legal work on people who really need me. Little do I know that the man who buys me is my worst enemy. Anderson West is ...

There was a time when my debt was the only link we had. There was a time when I couldn’t tell him how much I loved him, and he couldn’t tell me. There was a time when I thought I could never have enough money. Now, everything is different. Nicholas Crawford is a stranger, who is becoming more strange with every moment. I used to think I could make a life with him, but now I’m not so sure.

I owe him a debt. The kind money can’t repay. He wants something else: me, for one year. But I don’t even know who he is.... Three hundred sixty-five days and nights doing everything he wants...except that. “I’m not going to sleep with you,” I say categorically. He laughs.

I owe him a debt. Six books. One impossible love. The debt was supposed to be simple: one year of my life in exchange for my freedom. But nothing about Nicholas Crawford is simple. He's a stranger with two faces—the kind man who saves me and the dark enigma who owns me. For 365 days, I belong to him completely. Every moment. Every choice. Every piece of me. Except the one thing he wants most: my willing surrender in his bed. "I'm not going to sleep with you," I tell him on day one. He smiles like he knows a secret. "Before our time is up, you'll beg me for it." He's right. What starts as ...

I’m a man who takes what he wants. What do I want? Her. Olive Kernes owed me a debt, and she thought that she had paid it back. But now, I want more. I want more than just her time. I want more than just her body. Her new life has torn us apart. Now, it’s up to me to make things right. I will make the pieces of our love fit back together, if it’s the last thing I do. But can I do it in time?

From the moment we met, Nicholas Crawford has been an enigma. He’s a man with an unknown past and a mysterious future. He’s a criminal, a liar, a mastermind, and the love of my life. I became a criminal for him. I rescued him. Now, it’s his turn to do something for me. When I discover that everything I believed about my family is a lie, I need his help to uncover the truth. Who am I? Where do I come from? Why is there so much deceit? I’m in a dark place, and I’m all alone. He is the only person who can pull me out of it.

His promise: Before the year is up, you’ll beg for it. My days of lying and stealing are over, but then Nicholas Crawford makes me an offer I can’t refuse. Spend a year pretending to be his significant other in exchange for 1,000,000 million dollars. I tried to put that part of my life, and those hard-won skills, behind me. But I need the money. He needs a partner. I told him that I’d never sleep with him. He promised me that I would end up begging for it. Now, I want him more than ever. Especially when I run my fingers over his chiseled body and he teases me with his tongue.

The Perfect Lie, book three: This was supposed to be so easy. We go out west and start a new life. But then a gun goes off and everything changes. What happens now? How do we get through this?

I am not a liar or a thief or a criminal. At least, not anymore. But here I am doing the things that I promised myself I would never do again. Nicholas Crawford made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. He is dangerous and damaged but so am I. Our relationship is an addiction that we have to feed. Now, things are about to get even more complicated. Allegiances will be tested. Lies will be told. Truths will be revealed. We have both made promises that we can’t keep. The secrets we have uncovered only scratch the surface, and I’m afraid to find out what lies below.

Listen to the first two books in the best-selling Tell Me series as one volume! I owe him a debt I can't pay back with money. He wants something else: me, for one year. But I don’t even know who he is.... Three hundred sixty-five days and nights doing everything he wants, except that. "I’m not going to sleep with you," I say categorically. He laughs. "I’m going to make you a promise," his eyes challenge mine. "Before our time is up, you’ll beg me for it." Now, I want him more than ever.

Broken hearts do not fully heal. Even if they are mended, fissures remain, and over time, pressure can split open old wounds. There was a time when Isabelle and I were solid. There was a time when it was just the two of us against the world. I ignored the cracks beneath the surface. Now, everything is different. They are after us, and they are not going to give up no matter what. They have more resources, more man-power, more strength. What do we have? We used to have each other, but now...I’m no longer certain we have even that.

He bought me at an auction. Now he owns me for one night. I'm drowning in debt with nowhere to turn. Then I hear about the auction—one night with a wealthy stranger in exchange for enough money to save myself. I tell myself it's just business. One night, then I'm free. But Mr. Black isn't what I expected. He's dark, commanding, and dangerously addictive. His touch ignites something I've never felt before. His rules are absolute: surrender everything, trust him completely, obey without question. On his luxury yacht, isolated from the world, I discover the man behind the mystery. Aiden ...

After everything that we have been through, is this finally the end of us? Our life isn’t like other people’s. I crashed into his perfectly ordered world, changing everything. He took my innocence, and I taught him that life is better outside the walls of his cloistered mansion. But then he came along. Parker Huntington is the man who stalked me, attacked me, and kidnapped me.

I have debts to pay and secrets to keep. When someone threatens my life, I crash into him: Jackson Ludlow. The reclusive billionaire of New York. Once, he had everything a man could want. Then, he lost the only thing that he ever loved. So, he spent four years holed up in his mansion doing the only thing he knew how to do: make money. We are all wrong for each other. He’s cold, uninterested, and demanding. I’m impatient and inexperienced. The only thing we have in common is that we both have secrets. And the closer we get, the more they threaten to destroy us.

Le marché était simple : faire semblant d'être à lui pendant un an. Ne pas tomber amoureuse. Ne pas supplier pour plus. J'échoue aux deux. Nicholas Crawford m'a offert 1 million de dollars pour jouer sa petite amie. Pas d'attaches, pas de sexe, juste une année de simulation. Je me suis dit que je pouvais le faire. J'ai menti et arnaqué dans des situations pires. Mais chaque baiser mis en scène semble réel. Chaque toucher possessif me fait oublier que c'est faux. Chaque nuit que je passe dans son lit—sans coucher avec lui, juste horriblement proche—détruit un autre mur. Il a ...

Ils me l'ont arrachée devant l'autel. Un instant avant qu'elle devienne ma femme. J'ai construit un empire sur la peur et le pouvoir. J'ai détruit des hommes pour moins que ça.

Ils veulent me briser en la détruisant. Ils ne comprennent pas une chose : je n'ai plus rien à perdre. Je mobiliserai chaque ressource. J'utiliserai chaque contact. Je franchirai toutes les limites morales pour la libérer. Même ...
