Bait: A dark erotic thriller (Hunter & Prey Book 2)

About this book

None of us is immune to that poison love really is. If your case is already terminal, why not make the best of it? After spending six months in hiding, Penelope Thompson is back—and she’s out for blood. Haunted by her memories, she is driven by one thing only: to make Darren Hunter pay for what he did to her. Upon her return to Chicago, she has to face the facts—plotting revenge is a lot harder than she expected. Darren has been busy in the meantime—recovering from his “rafting accident” and finding himself some new eye candy for his arm make Penelope guess that he’s back to playing the same old games as before. With the help of her contacts, she now has a clear goal: save the girl before it’s too late and get her hands on concrete evidence. But the stakes are high, and she knows that her task isn’t easy, particularly when it’s not clear who is the hunter and who is the prey.
