Book Description:
One night…one fantasy for hire…one sizzling case of mistaken identity.
Ainsley Simmons can hardly believe she’s ordered a fantasy lover online — a man to fulfill her deepest sexual desires for the entire evening. She’s in for a surprise when sexy young Mr. R shows up at her door in a classic case of mistaken identity.
Ainsley has the night of her life being pleasured by the much younger and demanding multi-millionaire — until she discovers he’s not her fantasy lover after all.
He’s even better than that.

Excerpt:
Ainsley Simmons chewed on the end of her pencil, her
fingers hovering over her laptop, wondering if she had the nerve. Staring at
the screen, she tapped her foot nervously on the polished limestone floor. The
rapid beat echoed through her sprawling penthouse. Pausing to pick up a
business card, she flipped it over like a playing card, thumbing the linen card
stock between her fingers.
All too aware that today was Valentine’s Day, the
last thing Ainsley wanted to do was spend the evening alone. Not when her
friends were being whisked off by their lovers and significant others to exotic
locales, all while she sat in her vast Beverly Hills penthouse. Alone. At least
Charles hadn’t taken her home from her when he’d cleaned her out and scampered
off to Dubai with his newest flame.
Her gaze lingered on the business card and the
elegant, embossed print.
Fantasies Inc.
No fantasy will go
unfulfilled.
That was all it said. Nothing else.
Her closest friend, Tara, had discreetly handed
Ainsley the card at her annual posh cocktail party last weekend. The who’s who
of Hollywood had been in attendance that night, not that Ainsley had
noticed—she’d been too busy drowning her sorrows in her martini glass. Glasses
plural was more like it. No wonder she’d had a wicked hangover the next day.
The card didn’t specify the kind of fantasies they specialized in, but Tara had
told her. Sexual.
Maybe Tara was right—Fantasies Inc. might just be
the perfect diversion from her troubles, if just for one night. Drumming her
manicured nail on her desk and scanning the elaborate website, Ainsley was more
than intrigued by the promise of a fun-filled rendezvous in the privacy of her
own home, with no questions asked.
The company assured anonymity, and even provided a
short online questionnaire to assist in the creation of the client’s perfect
evening of pleasure.
The list of questions alone thrilled her. Preferred
age, race, hair and eye colour, build, sexual preferences, not to mention an
impressive list of sexual specialities. Next to each choice there was a
‘surprise me’ option. Ainsley frowned. Not one for surprises, she knew just the
type of lover that made her heart beat faster. The type of man she’d never had
before. Mid-twenties, fair and muscular. Oh, and yes, one who wasn’t afraid to
take control, to make her weak at the knees—at his command.
A flicker of desire wicked through her, right to her
core. Deep down in her belly was an insistent need ached to be satisfied,
tempted by blissful hours in the arms of her perfect fantasy lover.
Taking a long, slow swig of her champagne, the
bubbles catching in her throat, she gathered her courage. Courage to do
something rash, almost reckless—that was so unlike her, but then after Charles
had left her, she’d been forced to be the new Ainsley. And the night of
discreet pleasure might very well be her last five thousand dollars, but hours
spent allowing herself—no, more like treating herself—to an evening all about
her... Well, that was just what she craved. She’d think of it as a Valentine’s
present to herself.
Quickly ticking off a few preferences, she noted the
Valentine’s special, an upgrade to a second night of pleasure for a few
thousand more. Two nights of mysterious erotic pleasures was just too much for
both her body and her bank account to imagine. She’d best stick with one night
and see how it went. Gulping down the rest of her champagne, she pressed the
send button.
She exhaled as her credit card was approved for the
deposit. The rest would be put on her tab and could be settled at the end of
the fantasy. Plus gratuity. Oh, how does one tip for that? Her cheeks flushed
and her pulse raced with the thought of what she’d just done.
