Synopsis

Named for her beauty, Belle Dubois is as sweet as can be. Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, she is always given the best-until her world is turned upside down. When she away in her second year of college, she receives a call informing her that her parents have been murdered. She soon finds out that they were broke, and subsequently, so is she. With no home and nowhere to go, Belle is whisked under the wing of a woman named Aria, better known by her stage name, Passion. Before she knows it, Belle becomes a part of an underground world that she knows nothing about-one filled with bright lights, sexy clothing, and shiny poles. The money starts to pour in, and soon Belle loses herself in the very same fantasy she gives every night. Her heart has a void that only money can fill, but when she meets a handsome brother named Kidd Bryce, her perspective begins to change. He shows her a side to life that she didn't know existed. Just when she is about to say goodbye to the fast life for good, her past comes knocking on her door. The night Belle's family was murdered, everyone was supposed to die . . . including her. In a race against the clock, she must find out who ordered the deadly hit in the first place, and why, before her own time runs out.

I was feeling some erotic romance since it’s February after all. This book is about Belle Dubois. She had it all until her parents and brother were killed. She’s got nowhere to go until she was found in a gas station by dancers of a gentleman’s club. She is then introduced to a luxurious but dangero......more

This was a really good read. The ending kept me on the edge of my seat and I never saw it coming. The author did a great job setting up the scenes.

I feel a little awkward giving this book a star rating, because I am very clearly not the target audience, as evidenced by the language used by the author. I love a good smutty book, so no complaints there, it was more that the slang used was not something that I would be able to get away with sayin......more
