Book Blurb:
A marriage of convenience is the only way to get her back…and to keep her safe.
The beautiful Morgan doesn’t need to know how dangerous the NYC waters have become. She doesn’t need to know that old family debts have come to be settled.
She doesn’t need to know the way I’ve longed for her. We can keep things cordial…at least until night falls.
The more time we spend together, the more I come to crave her. Another one of her laughs. A smile. And god, a kiss. I’ve become addicted to my own wife.
I lost her once. I won’t lose her again.
She hates me for the secrets I’ve kept. But beneath that hatred burns a passion neither of us can deny. In my arms, she remembers what we once had. In my bed, she forgets why she ever left.
As threats close in from all sides, I’ll risk everything to protect what’s mine. Because some bonds can never be broken, some hearts can never truly be separated, and some loves are simply… inevitable.
High Stakes is a super steamy marriage-of-convenience romance where past wounds collide with present dangers, forcing two stubborn hearts to face the truth: sometimes what you fight the hardest is exactly what you need the most.

Review:
The CLIFFHANGER!!!!
Now that that is out of the way. WOW what a story. Lance and Morgan are still hot like fire and in all the shenanigans. These characters are so riveting and real it’s such a pleasure to read.
All the usual Pendragon friends are supporting characters in this book as well as some sketchy new ones. At the heart of, I think the takeaway is trust. Trusting in others and ultimately yourself, your true self.
I feel like a big betrayal is going to be revealed in the finale, and I hope I’m wrong. Either way, cannot wait for the next installment.
