Marilyn's Secret Lipstick: A Lust, Money & Murder Novel
The Past Never Stays Buried

In a world where Hollywood glamour, international intrigue, and dangerous liaisons collide, a secret so explosive it could alter the course of history lies hidden.

Italian criminal mastermind Giorgio "The Cat" Cattoretti stumbles upon the existence of a priceless artifact—a relic linked to Marilyn Monroe and rumored to hold scandalous secrets from Hollywood's Golden Age. Cattoretti becomes obsessed with finding it and turning it into an opportunity to increase his wealth and power.

But as an internationally wanted criminal, he knows he can't do it alone. He seeks the help of Secret Service agent Elaine Brogan, first with an attempt to bribe and then blackmail her, leveraging their checkered past against her. Elaine, resisting the scheme at every turn, is finally forced to succumb when her superiors decide it's in the Secret Service's best interest for her to cooperate.

Now, she finds herself in an uneasy alliance with a devious man she both respects and fears, navigating a treacherous world filled with ruthless collectors, cunning con men, and a secret powerful enough to destroy everything she holds dear. Amid the glittering intensity of the 'auction of the century, as the world's elite gather to vie for the prized artifact, the stakes—and the danger—soar.

Marilyn's Secret Lipstick is a pulse-pounding thriller that's classic Mike Wells—unputdownable from start to finish. It weaves together the glamour of old Hollywood, the tension of international espionage, and the underlying pull of forbidden romance. A must-read for fans of gripping suspense and high-octane adventure, this novel—like other books in the internationally bestselling Lust, Money & Murder series—will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you craving more.
