Sugar and Smoke:
Book One of the
Keane’s Women Series
A dark billionaire romance with secrets, obsession, and the kind of love that just might burn you alive.
Tess Morrison had nothing left to lose—except maybe her pride. Fired, broke, and one eviction notice away from total ruin, she rear-ended a billionaire… and crashed headlong in a new life.
She thought she knew how it worked. Be sweet. Be beautiful. Her new sugar arrangement with tech billionaire Grant Keane was supposed to be transactional—money, gifts, and pleasure from him, discretion and availability from her.
But when she learns of a previous sugar baby who went missing, and Tess realizes that Keane may be holding terrifying secrets, the game changes fast.
Drawn deeper into Grant Keane’s world—and into his arms—Tess finds herself trapped between what she feels and what she fears. As secrets surface and danger closes in, Tess must decide: Can she trust the man who might be her salvation… or her ruin?
