Selling Scarlet by Ella James
"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
Actually this week it is technically "Waiting on Friday", as the book comes out on a Friday but you know what I mean. I have been waiting for this book since the author released the cover. I absolutely love the cover. It is beautiful and I love how the ribbon goes around her hands. I am sooooo excited to find out what that means! Another great thing-this book will be only $0.99 from April 12-15.
Expected Publication Date: April 12, 2013
Synopsis:
Scarlett DeVille doesn't belong at a party like this: one
where the gowns cost more than her Camry and the cigars are worth more than her
grad school textbooks. Dragged by her best friend to the home of a playboy
bourbon heir, Scarlett is merely playing dress-up, rubbing elbows with the
California elites that banished her troubled family years ago.
After ten years of nonstop debauchery, Hunter West has
finally managed to screw himself. One night three months ago, Hunter was in the
wrong place at the wrong time, and when something awful happened, he was too
damned drunk to stop it. With the FBI on his tail for a crime didn't commit and
a blackmailer in his bed, Hunter is in noose-deep; his hands are tied—behind
his whip-sore back.
When Scarlett stumbles into Hunter's den of vices, she's a
light in the darkness, a flame in the void. And, just like everything else he
touches, Hunter mars her in a record time. To rectify the damage done, Scarlett
needs money she doesn't have, and she's come up with a foolproof way to get it.
Follow Scarlett to the lush Nevada brothel where she'll
auction her virginity and risk the only thing that's not for sale: her heart.
The highest bidder is a familiar face, with wicked hands and the devil's
mouth—and a secret so dark that it could cost her life.
Sounds different and interesting. I have stained by this author but have yet to read it. Look forward to see what you think if this novel.
