A Deal with Benefits

A Deal with Benefits
Susanna Carr

Thirty days and thirty nightsAshley Jones has been sitting in Sebastian Cruz’s office. For hours. Behind the imposing wooden doors sits the man who stole her family’s island home. And she wants it back.But the fight is knocked from her when Ashley recognises him as a man she knows intimately – the man who betrayed her after their blissful night together.Sebastian has no intention of giving the island back, but he does want Ashley. He agrees to her deal, but has a few sub-clauses of his own. Specifically: a month at his beck and call – and in his bed!‘Fabulous characters and astory full of drama…perfect!’– Megan, Recruitment, Enfieldwww.susannacarr.com

Ashley felt trapped. Cornered.

It was a struggle to remain still and meet his gaze. ‘What do you want from me?’

‘Two weeks in my bed.’

Her skin went hot and her mouth dropped open. ‘I wouldn’t stay in your bed for two more minutes, let alone—’

‘Make it three,’ he said coldly.

Her eyes widened. ‘You—’ she bit out.

‘And now it’s four,’ he said with no emotion. ‘Do you want to make it five weeks?’

A month with Sebastian? The wall she had painstakingly built around herself had shattered after one night with him. What would happen to her after four weeks in his bed?

‘How long do I have before I give you my decision?’

He moved closer, his mouth above hers. She felt his warm breath waft over her skin.

‘You have to give it to me now. Take it or leave it,’ he said.

ONE NIGHT WITH CONSEQUENCES

A high price to pay for giving in to temptation!

When succumbing to a night of unbridled desire, it’s impossible to think past the morning after!

But with the sheets barely settled that little blue line appears on the pregnancy test—and it doesn’t take long for you to realise that one night of white-hot passion has turned into a lifetime of consequences!

Only one question remains:

How do you tell a man you’ve just met that you’re about to share more than just his bed?

“OUR GUEST IS early, Miss Ashley. Ooh, that boat is sweet,” Clea, the housekeeper, said and gave a squeal of laughter that rang through the hall. “You should see Louis running down the dock to get a closer look.”
