Come run away with the circus... Ruby Palmer prefers to hide behind-the-scenes, keeping life at a distance. But when she signs on to work as a seamstress for the steamy Cirque D’Amour, the spotlight won’t take no for an answer, and neither will the circus’ handsome and enigmatic magician, Blake Cannon. She’s watched him from afar for months, dreaming, but never daring to hope he would notice her round curves. Then fate throws them together for one unforgettable night, but, the next morning, Ruby finds her hopes of a new romance cruelly dashed. There’s trouble at her door and happily-ever-after is far, far away. Life is a circus, magic is a trick and love is a dream. Or is it? A new bbw romantic suspense serial from Michelle Fox.

Life is a circus, magic is a trick and love is a striptease. Ruby Palmer is a seamstress with full curves and a penchant for old school glamour. Just a simple girl, really. Or so she likes to tell herself. One fateful burlesque performance and smoldering interlude with handsome magician, Blake Canon, later....everything has changed. She’s been romanced, she’s been targeted by the mob and, at their insistence, she’s now playing a dangerous game she doesn’t understand. Smuggled into Morocco, she’s sent on a mission to find Blake and betray him...or else. But after a steamy reunion with the magician, she can’t tell who is betraying whom. From burlesque at the Cirque D’Amour to magic in Morocco, the intrigue deepens in the second installment of the Burlesque! serial. Note: This story is novella length, meaning it’s shorter than a novel, but longer than a short story. While you don’t have to read the first book in the series—Burlesque! Le Cirque D’Amour—it would help flesh out the back story. Plus, it’s on sale for 99 cents.
