Sometimes the rules you agree to follow are the ones that change your life forever. If you'd asked me a year ago where my life would be, becoming an escort wouldn't have been anywhere on the list. But when I lose my job and find myself buried under debt that isn't even mine, I need a solution—and fast. Spending an evening as someone's companion seems like a simple way to get back on my feet. What I don't expect is meeting Rick Dunne, a confident, magnetic man who sees more in me than just a woman trying to survive a difficult situation. When he asks me to accompany him on a week-long business trip under a set of clearly defined rules, it sounds like the opportunity I need to finally regain control of my life. But the closer we grow, the harder it becomes to believe that what's happening between us is only temporary. Some arrangements are meant to stay simple—but falling for Rick was never part of the plan. Now I need to decide if I'm brave enough to believe in the future he's offering.
