The beautiful, foul-mouthed American girl and handsome, well-mannered British boy are back. They have a heck of a secret to share, and if their first adventure seemed wild, the second is sure to set your sheets on fire. Get prepared for a continuation of this seven-book dramatic, spicy rom-com saga. Clara Presley and John Carrington's marriage isn't normal. It started with a drunken night in Vegas. Later, he admitted he tricked her into it. Clara's ready to set new ground rules with Carrington about his controlling ways, but if she knows anything at this point it's that he won't be dissuaded from pursuing his goal. If only she knew what his goal was, it would make her life a whole lot easier. Exhausted and dizzied by Carrington's word games and refusal to accept her boundaries, Clara returns to Philadelphia for some time alone, where she meets a fascinating and hilarious soccer star, Alex Campbell. Clara doesn't know if Alex is trustworthy, but she revels in the carefree vibes he adds to her hectic life. Back in London, Clara's new friend saves her from chaos and mayhem when she reaches her breaking point with Carrington's manipulative behaviors. But happiness eludes her after she leaves Carrington, as she misses the intensity of his love. There's only one way for Clara to find the truth of what Carrington's hiding; whether she'll be ready to accept it and re-enter his labyrinth of lies is another story.
