That's exactly the dilemma that Elliott Foster, CEO of Foster MacKenzie, faces when she meets the alluring Lauren Collier, Chief Legal Counsel of a Fortune 500 company. Elliott never has a shortage of attractive women willing to share her bed, and she doesn't care if they are interested in her or just her money. By her rules, if two women are attracted to each other there's no reason why two women with a mutual agenda for pleasure shouldn't spend the night together—or in some cases, the afternoon. No strings, no complications—until Lauren, who is intriguing but decidedly off-limits. Lauren doesn't fit the pattern of casual liaisons and Elliot knows she should walk away. Instead she finds herself in the unusual position of pursuing a woman, and even more disconcertingly...on Lauren's terms. Suddenly Elliott finds herself on a roller-coaster ride of passion and discovery that promises to be the ride of her life.
