She didn’t know how deeply she could connect
with this guy when her heart ached at the thought of leaving Kingsley behind.
But he’d trained her well. By now she was used to doing what King told her to
do. She’d meet him. She’d give him a chance. And then she’d go back to her old
life.
    At least she’d have some very good memories.
    At seven that evening Kingsley came to her door. His
too-handsome face wore a somber expression that pained her to see. They kissed
in silence before Kingsley pulled away and whispered, “Time to go.”
    Offering her his arm, he escorted her to his Rolls-Royce, and
she cried against his shoulder on her way to the restaurant where his client
waited.
    The Rolls pulled in front and parked. Charlotte wiped her face
and gave King a sad smile.
    “I’m only doing this for you,” she said.
    “I know, chérie . But give him a
chance. I think you’re exactly what he’s been looking for.”
    “Okay. I’ll see you in six weeks though, right?” Charlotte
straightened her hair and her dress.
    He raised his eyebrow at her.
    “Your next haircut,” she reminded him.
    He smiled. “Bien sûr.”
    Charlotte took a deep breath and walked into the restaurant.
Old and elegant, it reeked of money, and she felt completely out of place. She
gave her name to the maitre d’, who escorted her to a private table in the
corner of the restaurant. She didn’t want to eat anything. She didn’t even want
a drink. She just wanted to run from the place and straight back into the arms
of—
    Staring down morosely at the floor, she saw her face reflected
back at her from a pair of riding boots polished to a mirror shine.
    Charlotte looked up and smiled at Kingsley’s mysterious
“client.”
    “Bonjour, monsieur.”

    In the world of kink authors, she’s the top.
    Notorious Nora Sutherlin is famous for her delicious works of erotica, each one more popular with readers than the last. But her latest manuscript is different—more serious, more personal—and she’s sure it’ll be her breakout book…if it ever sees the light of day.
    Zachary Easton holds Nora’s fate in his well-manicured hands. The demanding British editor agrees to handle the book on one condition: he wants complete control. Nora must rewrite the entire novel to his exacting standards—in six weeks—or it’s no deal.
    Nora’s grueling writing sessions with Zach are draining…and shockingly arousing. And a dangerous former lover has her wondering which is more torturous—staying away from him…or returning to his bed?
    Nora thought she knew everything about being pushed to your limits. But in a world where passion is pain, nothing is ever that simple.
    “A beautiful, lyrical story… The Siren is about love lost and found, the choices that make us who we are… and above all, finding our way home. I can only hope that Ms. Reisz pens a sequel!” —bestselling author Jo Davis
