Author: Fiona Murphy
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: March 5, 2019





Blurb


Three billionaire brothers: Cesare, Enzo, and Dante
Sabatini have everything except the one thing money can’t buy. Three big
beautiful, women Alicia, Bethany, and Chloe will teach them the ABCs of love.
Follow these couples as they negotiate the riskiest deal of all, falling in
love.

It’s hard to believe
when I get the call: an offer to work for one of the Sabatini brothers. Cesare
and Dante head a real estate firm that buys, sells, and owns some of the most
spectacular real estate in Chicago. Dante Sabatini is the youngest of the brothers,
and even though he’s an arrogant manwhore he doesn’t come close to the a$$hole
level of the oldest Sabatini, Cesare. While I work for Dante, Cesare is in the
office across the hall—and too close for comfort. I’m not sure what misfiring
synapse has my stomach flipping a thousand times a minute or my skin hot and
tight when the man is around, but I’m doing my best to ignore it. Even if I
weren’t a virgin, I’m very aware getting involved with Cesare Sabatini would be
a complete disaster.
Until the moment I
find out Cesare is having the same problem. Seriously? The insanely gorgeous
billionaire wants me? I’m a plus-size woman who has grown numb to the insults I
have heard about my weight. I’m far from numb at the idea of throwing caution
to the wind and giving in to the dirty demands Cesare whispered in my ear.
Then I get a call I
never thought I would have to deal with. My little sister is being blackmailed.
I need twenty five thousand dollars or her future goes up in flames. I’m
borrowing it, I’ll put it right back.
When Cesare finds
out, he demands twenty-five days and nights of my body. Only once I’m in his
home and life, twenty-five days isn’t enough—I want forever. But what does
Cesare want?

Excerpt

I’m barely
settled into my chair when an instant message comes through. It’s from Cesare.
All it says is:


My office


    Why the hell does my stomach
drop then twist painfully? Is it about me giving my notice? It has to be—he
can’t know, not so soon. I look to Hannah, who is engrossed in the report she’s
writing, doing that mumbling thing she does as she’s typing. Heart pounding, I
push up from my chair then make my way to Cesare’s office. I knock, I hear him
say come in. My palm is sweating as I turn the knob then push the door open.
He’s leaning back in his chair. For the first time in what feels like forever
his eyes are meeting mine. They give nothing away.
       “Yes, sir?”
     “Have a seat, Ms. Jeffries.” He
gestures to the chair in front of his desk.
     Slowly, I sink to the edge of
the chair. “Do you need something?” I feel it now: a heady satisfaction
surrounds him. He smiles, it’s blinding, it’s scary. The hair on the back of my
neck goes up.
    “Maybe I should be asking you
that. Do you need something, Ms. Jeffries? Was there a difficulty in your
personal life?” Oh god, my heart stutters. “It must have been an enormous
difficulty to run into twenty-five thousand dollars. I take it the matter has
been resolved?” His tone is of concern, of solicitation, with just the faintest
twinge of sarcasm. I don’t respond. I can’t. “The matter has been resolved, has
it not?” I don’t move an inch. “Ms. Jeffries, I asked you a question. The
reason why you needed twenty-five thousand dollars, has it been resolved?”
        I nod, just once. I hate the
tears that pour out of me as I blink. It’s clear he’s not happy about them
either. “Ms. Jeffries, this isn’t a speeding ticket where you’ll get away with
a warning if you turn on the waterworks. You stole twenty-five thousand dollars
from my company, from me.”
       “I gave it back. I only needed
it to make a trade. I can pay you interest if you want it.” The words come out
of me before I can swallow them. “Bethany was being blackmailed. If I didn’t
pay fifty thousand dollars her entire future, everything she worked so hard for
was going to get flushed down the toilet by a malicious brat.”
       His eyes narrow. “You made a
trade with that money? Are you crazy? In this volatile market, you could have
lost everything.”
      I shake my head. “I’ve made this
trade three years running every quarter and it’s never gone against me. Your
twenty-five thousand was safe—I made even more this time around. I’m sorry, I’m
already quitting. Isn’t that enough?” I plead.
        He cocks his head as he studies
me. His eyes run over me slowly, so very slowly. It’s back, the heat I haven’t
felt in so long, burning me from the inside out. “No, it’s not enough, not
nearly enough. I’m going to need twenty-five thousand dollars’ worth of
recompense in the form of you.” A plain manila folder is pushed toward me.
“Option one: I pick up the phone and make a call to the police and give them
that file that details every step of your removal of funds, unapproved, into
your grandmother’s account. Or option two: You agree to give yourself to me
when I want you, how I want you, as often as I want you.”
        This is supposed to be
humiliating, I’m almost sure of it. Yet, his words cause a rush of wet heat to
flood my core. What is the matter with me? Lydia’s words come rushing back to
me as I fight not to fall on my knees screaming option two, a thousand times
option two. Cesare needs to feel like he has the power, he needs to be in
control. I had already told him I wanted him, would take him whatever way he
was wanted me. Yet as a virgin, somehow I had the power of obligation over him;
now he has the power all over again. Forcing a deep breath, I meet his eyes, glowing
with fierce hunger. “What if I don’t meet your usual standards? With my lack of
experience and everything?”
      “Let me worry about that. All I
need from you is a willingness to please. I’ll take care of the rest.”
      Hell yes, I’m willing. God, I’m
such a slut. I nod, too embarrassed to meet his eyes. “Okay.”
       “Okay, what?” I swear he purrs
the words like the tiger Dante once compared him to. I’ve caught a tiger by the
tail—now what the hell do I do with him? No sudden movements flashes as a
shiver runs up my spine.
        “I’m yours, any way you want
me.” A dark eyebrow goes up. “As often as you want me. I belong to you.”
      “You’ll withdraw your letter of
resignation. I’ll deal with Dante. At noon you’ll leave early, to go home and
get packed. Movers will be at your home at two. Pack everything you will need
for the next twenty-five days. You’ll be living with me in order for you to be
within easy reach to fulfill the whenever I want you, as often as I want you
portion of the agreement.”
        Living with him? I get to keep
my job too? “I have a dog. I can’t leave him at home.”
      He sighs then shrugs. “Bring the
dog. He won’t be sleeping in the bed. I’m not willing to share my bed with a
dog.”
        I shake my head. “Me either, he
sleeps in his own bed at the foot of the bed on the floor. Um, how long am I
keeping my job for? The twenty-five days or…” I’m almost afraid to ask the
question, yet I need to know.
        “For now, the twenty-five days.
I’ll look into moving you into another position, where you don’t have access to
money, maybe as an admin in our legal department.” He says the last drily. I
fight not to blush and lose.
        “I’m sorry, you don’t know how
sorry I am. I have never so much as taken a penny from one of those take a
penny leave a penny things. But this was for my sister, and I can’t say I
wouldn’t do it again.” I shrug. “It was her whole world at stake—hers seemed
more important than my own at the time.”
        He’s quiet for so long, I can’t
take it anymore and look up to meet his eyes. We connect and he sees into my
soul. Every secret I have ever had he knows, every lie I’ve ever told is
revealed to him. “For the next twenty-five days, I’m your whole world.”









Author Bio

Due to commitment
issues I have lived in many different cities and my favorite is Chicago but I
have managed to settle into Austin and perhaps my commitment issues are behind
me.

I have enjoyed
reading from a very young age and it wasn't long before the children books
bored me and I read the books my mother enjoyed Stephen King and Dean Koontz
and I didn't sleep without the light on until I was about ten.

I came across my
first Harlequin by accident and it was love at first read, no one died and
happy endings? It was a whole new world and I loved it.

I wrote my first
story at eight and everyone died, of course. Since then I would like to think
I've gotten better and now I'm writing the happily ever afters I first fell in
love with, with some hot sex thrown in along the way.
As a plus size woman
myself, I have started writing the stories I always wanted to see myself in but
never did. And now I’m ecstatic to give BBWs the happily ever afters with hot
Alphas I want to read.
