The Opium Room
by Charisma Kendrick
Since her nasty divorce a year ago, Lea Engle has been out
of the dating game. When she attends a business conference in Atlanta she meets
Fox Kemp, the owner of a nearby hotel. Fox is handsome and has a legion of
female fans, evident by the women who pass him by with wagging tongues. But he
doesn’t want them; he wants Lea. Plain and not experienced enough to please a
man of his caliber, Lea has reservations. Could a man like Fox be true to a
woman like her? Already cheated on by her husband of ten years, Lea doubts it.
Enter Fox’s hotel consultant Jill Sandlings, who shows up,
cleavage bearing, every time Lea turns around. Is Fox telling Lea all there is
to know about Jill? Does Fox himself know who Jill really is? And how will her
presence affect their relationship? Maybe Fox should ask his dad, Roman, who
hired her. Roman’s been involved in plenty of underhanded business dealings,
not to mention, Fox’s own suspicions about his father’s possible involvement in
his mother’s death.
Will all the Kemp family drama drive Fox and Lea apart
before their relationship gets off the ground? And is Lea really the right fit
for Fox?

Some mature content. For readers 18 and older. This book is primarily
based on a M/F relationship; however, be advised there is a steamy F/F scene included
for the purpose of building Lea’s self-esteem.
