Description
From the internationally bestselling author, Rina Kent, comes a new standalone book about a power couple who are each other's villains.
My boss. My hell.
When I slept with a faceless jock as a teen, I didn't think I would become pregnant. I also didn't think I would lose that child.
Several years later, I find out that my daughter is alive and I'm given a second chance. One problem, though. The faceless jock isn't so faceless anymore.
He has a name everyone fears; Kingsley Shaw. A ruthless bastard. A heartless devil. And most importantly, my daughter's father.
Oh, and he hates me as much as I hate him. We're out to destroy one another with all methods available. Including a dangerous game of lust that might lead to our downfall.
Empire of Lust is a complete STANDALONE. No other books should be read prior to this.
