Only The Lovely

I searched half of Europe for the woman who disappeared from my bed.

I never expected her to walk back into my life as the operative assigned to save it.

Three years ago, she was Sophie. Brilliant, captivating, gone by sunrise.

I tore Monaco apart looking for her. Found nothing but ghosts.

Now she's sitting across from me in a security briefing, and her name is Brie Anderson. Former CIA. KOAN investigator. Here to stop the blackmail ring threatening to destroy The Sanctuary—the Manhattan club I built to prove I'm more than my family's billions.

Someone inside my organization is weaponizing desire. Stealing secrets from the country's most powerful people. Selling intelligence. Escalating threats.

They picked the wrong man to cross.

Working with Brie means stepping back into the fire. The connection that rewrote my understanding of wanting someone. But she's here on assignment, keeping professional distance while we hunt a conspiracy.

The problem? I've never stopped wanting her.

And now that she's real—Brie, not the fever dream I chased across Europe—I'm not letting her vanish again.

Even if protecting her means risking everything my family built. Even if stopping this threat means tearing down the empire I created. Because some things are worth any price.

She's at the top of that very short list.

ONLY THE LOVELY is the third standalone romantic suspense in The Sinful State series, where beauty becomes a weapon, desire becomes a risk, and second chances come with a price. For readers 18+ who enjoy their romance unapologetically.
