About This Romance ARC
Dr. Lacey Bonds is a good girl. Smart, sweet, and modest.
She also has a secret so dark she hides it even from herself.
When she catches her husband with two of his university students, her marriage is shattered and she has a second chance to find out what she really wants. To her surprise, it’s a craving completely at odds with her repressive upbringing.
Guided by the beautiful young guitarist Ricardo and her hedonistic best friend Janice, Lacey enters the world of the notorious Second Circle Social Club determined to experience everything she’s denied herself.
Unbeknownst to Lacey, Derek Harrington, chairman of her hospital board, widower and father to her favorite patient, has been watching her transformation with increasing interest. But the gruff, former Special Forces officer, has a secret of his own…
As Lacey uncovers the dark source of her obsession, her carefully organized world starts to unravel, and she risks losing everything important to her.
Through it all, Lacey knows Derek is the last man who can be allowed to see what she's become.
But he’s the only one she wants to show.
Bonds of Shame, Bonds of Lust is the first book in this super spicy dark contemporary romance duology.
