The last place Vaughn Westbrook expected to find himself was at a charity gala. But the dark path he’s walked since his discharge from the military led him into the upper echelons of society—where he hunts for the man behind a human trafficking ring. Carissa Hastings lived a sheltered life in the lap of luxury. Forced to participate in a bachelorette auction, her parents expect the man of their choice to win a date with her. Vaughn’s winning bid on Carissa was a tactical move, but logic is thrown out the window when he meets the innocent beauty. Vaughn sold his soul long ago. There’s no way he’s going to let Carissa do the same. Warning: This book has an alpha hero who doesn't see himself as anyone's hero until he meets the woman who's meant to be his. If you like insta-love and hot sex, then this story is for you! Please note: This is the third novella in the Body & Soul series, but it can be read as a standalone. Each book in the series features a different couple.
