Summary: (from goodreads) In this New York Times bestselling erotic enovella trilogy, a buttoned-up businesswoman takes her friend’s advice and has a fling with a stranger on a trip to Vegas—only to find herself under his mysterious, sexy power both in the boardroom and the bedroom.

Kasie Fitzgerald knows who she’s supposed to be. She’s a rising-star-workaholic at a global consulting firm. She’s the fiancée of a well-connected man who’s won the approval of her parents. People know that she’s reliable, serious, proper, cautious, pragmatic, and yes, a little predictable. She’s who Dave and her family want her to be.

But as her thirtieth birthday looms, buried feelings begin to resurrect. Her friend takes her to Vegas for one last wild and crazy night. In a dress much shorter and sexier than anything she has ever dared to wear before, she hits the blackjack tables. And meets him. Under the tailored clothes it’s clear that this is a man who is intense, powerful, and maybe even a little dangerous. With a touch of trepidation she accepts his invitation to get a drink, and before long, she’s in his hotel room.

She never gets his full name. Perhaps his anonymity is one of the reasons she’s able to give herself over to him and to the moment so completely.Perhaps it’s why she’s just had the most exquisite and passionate sex of her life. Shaken by her own behavior, Kasie tries to chalk it up to one crazy night. But when the mysterious gentleman she’s just had a fling with shows up in her office—as the CEO of a firm her company does a billion dollars of business with a year, demanding that she handle his account, and so much more—things will never be the same again. And there’s no telling where this will go…

Kasie Fitzgerald is an everyday average woman, trying to work her way up the corporate ladder. She has her dream job, that her fiancé helped her land. She and her best friend Simone work for a top notch global consulting firm. This is the life she loves, the life she knows.

Simone wants to take Kasie on a night out on the town. Vegas to be precise! She wants her to live, wants her to experience what a young person is supposed to be like. Kasie has after all, been with the same average boring man, Dave for the last 6 years.

Kasie walks into the casino in a too tight, too short dress and sits down at the Blackjack table. Almost instantly, a very attractive man, nicely built with salt and pepper hair sits down. His name is Robert Dade and asks Kasie to make a wager. If he wins, they go for a drink. If she wins, they stay at the table for a drink and play on. Fair enough!

In Dave's eyes, Kassie is perfection. She can do no wrong, she is his white rose. It's in the way she dresses, the way she speaks, the way she kisses him, down to the way they make love. It's simple, easy and perfection to Dave. This is Kassie, his Kassie. A facade who smiles sweetly and pretends to be delicate, bland and weak.

However, Kasie soon finds that Robert makes her see her dirty girl on the inside. He's her temptation, her inspiration. How long can she resist temptation? Does she resist his charm, good looks, power, money and sexiness? Is this the REAL Kassie? Is this who she truly is and wants to be? He wants to tear away that facade and make her face her true self.

Kassie is caught in between good and "naughty". Which path will she choose? Will it all come to a crumbling end before her eyes? Read on and find out!!
