Dance for Me - Hardcover

by D. E. Ren (Author)

The stage is set.

The curtains are drawn.

Are you ready to play?

Harper

Cirque is the legacy I will leave behind, a playground for the grown and elite. As the contortionists bend and costumes are shed, a new threat builds from within, aiming to lead Cirque down a dark path and destroy my name in the process. In a world that feeds off blurred lines and questionable morals, I only have one rule in my club that garners no mercy: no drugs. Ever. Now someone is using the one thing I fight against and mocking me with it, exploiting Cirque as a front and my name as a scapegoat. The evidence against me is stacking up and I can't afford to lose focus now, can't afford to show any weakness. Then he walked in, challenging my solitude, and breathing life into desires I long ago buried. I can't afford the distraction, but the more I let him in, the farther I can feel my mask slipping away.

Colton

It was only supposed to be a job, nothing more than a means to an end. Everything I knew about the cold, ruthless club owner should have been enough to keep me far away, but when a twist of fate alters my job description, I find myself constantly at her side. Promises of keeping my head down and staying out of trouble are forgotten memories as my desire for her grows with my need to protect her. I need to find out who is impersonating Harper and stop the threats against her, but more than anything, I just need her. I play with her patience, and she plays with my self-control, each smile and touch pulling me further on stage. It was only supposed to be a job, but the further I'm dragged into her world, the harder it is to remember I was never meant to be a player in this act.
