He found and lost his dream girl in the course of one night.
When wealthy, powerful Diego spots the enticing blonde goddess across the room at his exclusive masked pleasure party, she shines like a celestial body, lighting up his currently gray world.
So he pulls out all the stops to charm her.
He approaches carefully, makes her laugh, and tempts her into letting go, seducing her into a playful game of peekaboo for his eyes only.
And the way she makes him work hard for her approval? He’s crazy in love before he can even kiss her.
But then the clock strikes midnight, and it all goes to hell.
If only she’d given him her name.

He found and lost his dream girl in the course of one night.
He needs the thrill of the hunt. She just needs money to get TF out of the city.
As a former football running back, all Tavros wants is to find a woman who knows how to run, so he can get what he needs to feel human: the thrill of chasing her. After he finds it, he’ll go back home to Minnesota, be the best football coach he can be, and find a nice girl. One who doesn’t make him feel like a predator hunting for prey.
He just needs one night to live his perfect fantasy. But so far, every woman he’s hired to play has been too slow, too intimidated by his size, or too easily overcome. The dream keeps getting further away, and the beast inside him has grown restless.
When Kori hears about the opportunity to make a ton of money working at the House of Midnight Pleasures for one night, she jumps at the chance. She’ll finally be able to leave the city she moved to for her ex—the one who knocked up his boss’s daughter two months after she gave up her entire life to be with him.
And as a former college track star, spending the night sprinting away from a big, beefy alpha who’s surprisingly quick for his size sounds kind of hot, honestly.
But one thing neither of them count on is just how quickly the excitement of the hunt turns into something more. How could one night satisfy their most primal urges for good?

Auctioning off my first time is my last resort. I never expected my best friend’s dad to be the highest bidder.
Thanks to a mountain of medical debt and a precarious scholarship, I’m weeks away from becoming homeless and ruining the rest of my life. So when I get the chance to auction off my v-card, I take it. God knows, I’m not using it.
Masks are mandatory at the House of Midnight Pleasures, but the man who wins me is still the hottest guy I’ve ever seen, even with half his face covered. And Miles pays a truly obscene amount of money to spend the night with me.
He smells like pure sex. His body looks like it’s sculpted from marble. And he’s really good with his hands.
He even reminds me a little of Charlie, my high school best friend’s dad, and the only man I’ve ever wanted to sleep with. But Charlie never looked like that.
Or that’s what I thought, anyway. Until I see his tattoo. His very, very familiar tattoo…

He’s the monster in the shadows. She’s the angel in the spotlight.
As the Head of Security for the House of Midnight Pleasures, I keep all our performers safe from the wealthy elite who attend our private masked parties.
Tabitha Green is the only performer I really care about.
Night after night, I’m transfixed by her sensual solo act, staring at her so hard that I can almost start to believe she stares back.
It’s idiotic.
Nobody looks at me when they don’t have to. Not since I got these scars on a rescue mission in Syria.
Tabitha can’t even talk to me without turning bright red and looking away. So on event nights, behind the safety of my mask, I let myself memorize every inch of her.
And I keep my distance.
Then her car breaks down during the worst storm of the year. With shelter-in-place orders in effect, I have no choice but to take her home with me.
I take the couch and try like hell not to think about her lying in my bed without me…until she wakes up screaming in the middle of the night.
And she needs comfort.
God help me.
This might be the thing that finally kills me.

I don’t know whether to kill her, kiss her, or keep pretending.
When Rosie Acosta walks into my office as my new executive assistant, my world tilts off its axis.
She returns all my insults with a smile. She handles all my unreasonable demands even better than I could. She’s not intimidated by my rough edges—if anything, they seem to spur her on.
She delights in driving me out of my mind, and pretty soon, our arguing starts to feel a lot like foreplay
But as my business partner’s sister, touching her means certain death. It means losing everything I’ve clawed my way out of the gutter to build.
The problem is, there are fates worse than death. And losing the woman who has my heart in her fist might be one of them.

First he catches me faking my pleasure. Then he challenges me to stop pretending.
Antony Delsarte offers me $100,000 to play his girlfriend for the week—to help him sleep, he says. His father just died, and he needs a distraction.
For some reason, he wants me. In his bed, all week long.
He’s one of the owners of the club where I work, and I really, really need the money.
But he says he wants the part of me no one else gets to see. The part that lets go.
Antony wants to crack me open and see what’s inside, and pleasure is his weapon of choice.
He spends all week making me feel treasured. Worshipped. Seen.
And then he makes me see God.
It’s just supposed to be a job.
I can’t afford to get my heart broken.
All I can do is hold on for dear life and remember that none of this is real…no matter how precious he makes me feel in his arms.
