Trapped with a billionaire in his mysterious mansion... Can she beat him at his own game? Lily Frazer would do anything to save the Frazer Center for the Arts—even take on the infamous billionaire Calder Cunningham. When Lily breaks onto the Cunningham estate, she only wants to find and reason with Calder. (All right, all right, she wants to punch him in the face, too, but that's Plan B.) As it turns out, the arrogant billionaire is willing to give her the money he promised, but there's a catch: she must win it from him. Lily isn't about to give up the money without a fight (or let some haughty bastard seduce her), but she quickly discovers that there might be more to the brooding Calder than she initially perceived. As their games of cat and mouse become increasingly intense, she suddenly finds herself confused by her own emotions. Can she deny her attraction long enough to win the money she needs?

Once, Louisa “Lou” Cunningham had everything. Now, she has nothing to lose. Her father’s dead. Her family’s fortune is gone. She’s drifting, and she’d rather lose herself in the arms of her sexy program director (or anyone, really) than deal with the turmoil inside of her. But even the wildest spirit can’t run forever. Lou knows that in order to move on with her life, she has to go back. And that means returning to the estate she once called home—even if that estate is now a luxury tourist attraction called Huntington Manor. At Huntington Manor, she’s no longer Lou Cunningham. She’s Addison Thomas, assistant to the hotel’s General Manager. Infiltrating her old home might be one of her crazier schemes, but she’s ready for the challenge. What she’s not ready for is Ward, the sexy Casanova of a contractor who keeps stumbling across her path. As much as she’d love to forget about her issues in the depths of his azure blue eyes, she’s here to heal, not fall back into bad habits. Even if he has the most delicious set of biceps she’s ever seen. Even if he might be the only one who understands what she really needs... \Recommended for readers 18+\ Approx. length = 71,000 words HIS WICKED GAMES SERIES Book 1 - His Wicked Games Book 2 - Truth or Dare Book 2.5 - Sweet Victory HER WICKED HEART SERIES (spin-off series) Book 1 - Her Wicked Heart Book 2 - Lost and Found (Coming Late Spring 2014)

PART TWO: Lily Frazer's been through her share of ups and downs with the brooding Calder Cunningham—but she doesn't know where to begin when it comes to his guilt over his sister.

Even if it takes all night.
