Break Me Not (Pétale Auction, #3)

I was broken, chewed up, and spit out by my ex-husband.

I waited like a good mother until my daughter left for college to finalize things, but he still went berserk.

Now, forced to rebuild my life, I have only one option left.

Selling myself to the highest bidder.

For once, I let myself feel a spark of excitement. Let myself have the kind of night I'd always fantasized about.

Until I realized she was my daughter's best friend.

Completely transformed, I didn't recognize her.

But she knew me.

And she'd planned for this.

One night. That's all it was ever supposed to be.

And what a good girl she was.

But it was only supposed to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Then my ex decides to take matters into his own hands, and she's the only person I can rely on.

She says she can save me.

The real question is...

Will I let her, even if it means giving in to the forbidden?
