Then William Chase walks into her office and into her life. She just ended things with her lawyer boyfriend, who is everything she thought she wanted, except what it took to "turn her on." Chase is a considerably different package; not her type at all. He's big, tattooed, wears boots and T-shirts, and is incredibly sexy. He's just what she has been running from for years. But all she wants from him is meaningless sex, until he begins to creep into her soul.
Jane's ideal is a socially acceptable, successful husband, a house with a white picket fence and children. She wants to live a normal, quiet, "fade-into-the-wall" life. But when her half-brother is arrested and suspected of murder, her world turns upside down. And who does she turn to for help?
Chase has become her best friend and closest confidant. But his past is too close to hers, and, although she accepts his help, she rejects his offer of anything more than just sex. She has spent too much time trying to separate herself from her past, and she is prejudiced toward people who are too close to it.
With the help of both Chase and his father, her brother is not charged with murder and only has to plead guilty to lesser charges. Jane is relieved and feels she no longer needs Chase in her life. But his plans are quite different.
As Jane agonizes with her feelings, she needs to set aside years of guilt and shame and learn to live her life as herself. Can she do it, and can she just walk away from Chase, the only man who really knows her and loves her anyway?
LEAD ME ON is a fast-paced novel filled with steamy sex, suspense and difficult relationships. You'll have trouble putting this one down.
