Devil's Order


Book Description

Book 2 in the Club Decadent Skies series is the journey of Jax Crowthorne and Ciska Farlow. My name is Ciska Farlow, and I have just about had enough of the apeshit life I’ve been given. It’s time I take charge and guide my destiny in the direction it is supposed to go. First, I’m not your everyday IT geek. Been there, done that… yeah, I even did the time… behind bars, but that’s neither here nor there. I’m clean now, even working a respectable job. Second, I detest city slickers, men who believe their perfect jawlines cause women’s legs to flop open. Not this girl, hell no, and definitely not for the likes of one alpha-hole, Jax Crowthorne. The damn man believes he’s a gift to all women. Well, I’ve got news for him… I’m Jax Crowthorne, billionaire and property developer extraordinaire. I live large. I love women… in a magnitude of variety. Why not? They love me, too. Besides, I can afford it, right? Except, I’m bored… out of my skull. It’s time some kind of shift happened in what is becoming a mundane life. I need more… maybe a woman. My own woman, one I can weave in my own personal web at Club Decadent Skies aboard the GoldenEye II Airbus. And I know just which one to target. Caught in the cusp of a power struggle with a mafia group gearing up to use my company as cover to register all their shell companies, I am forced to reconsider the fragile relationship I’m threading with a very resistant and snippy blonde— especially when the ghosts from her past threatened her life and me into losing everything. Note: Although the blurb is in 1st POV, the book is written in 3rd POV. All books in this series are standalone novels. If you’re ready for the flight of a lifetime with a suspenseful back storyline that tests each couple’s trust and resilience, then this is the series for you. An exclusive BDSM club with a difference… in the skies, inside a luxurious Airbus jet. A mile-high club that will make you wish they sold air miles online! If you have a dark side that needs an outlet, Club Decadent Skies is where you go. If you’re a fan of my other Club Cove and Castle Sin series, then this is for you.
