From The Publisher:

It's been three years since I set foot in Club Explicit, and three long years since I set eyes on Andy Morgan.He doesn't want me here, doesn't want to know me, doesn't want to even hear my name.But I'm back on his doorstep, in his office, in his life… with a suitcase full of dirty bad secrets.Faye Devere is out to claim her old life back. Three years in Italy have come at a heavy price, and she's running back to the only anchor she has left: her fifty-fifty share of Club Explicit, and the man she left to pick up her pieces.But Andy Morgan's long over it. Long over her. Club Explicit is his baby now. His club, his rules, his way. Andy's not a man who shares easily. And certainly not with the woman who upped and left without so much as a goodbye.When your battlefield is London's horniest playground, and sex is the sole weapon left in your arsenal, it's only a matter of time before the fight gets dirty… and the secrets get dirty bad.WARNING: As is always the case with Jade West novels, please proceed with caution. The book contains hardcore BDSM and sexual practices that may offend some readers. Please use your own discretion. Most definitely 18+
