Summary: Book two in Blake Knight and Jewell Weston's story. See how their story concludes;
Relinquish Control has just opened its doors in Seattle, and already we are not shy for customers. Relinquish Control is an exclusive escort service catering to the most distinguished customers, from business magnates to foreign royalty. This proven and well-established international business offers an elite selection of women who are ready and willing to attend to your every need with no questions asked. Confidentiality is our special obligation.
Jewell Weston is homeless and desperate at age twenty-four. Two years ago, she quit her job to care for her ailing mother and her young brother; the medical bills incurred because of the cancer that killed her mother two months ago took everything the family had, and the state then took away her brother, now age fourteen. The only way for her to get the boy back is by finding a job and securing a home.
When she’s approached by a woman in cashmere and pearls who tells her she can change her life, and is handed a card with the business name Relinquish Control on it, she thinks she has nothing to lose by calling the phone number. Maybe this will be the answer to her prayers, a way to save her little brother from the nightmarish foster home he’s been placed in.
Blake Knight, known to the world as cold and without a heart, is given an exclusive membership to Relinquish Control by his devilish younger brother, who thinks it would be amusing to make his staid brother squirm. Little does this brother realize that Blake does indeed have unusual desires that Relinquish Control can cater to perfectly. What started as a joke turns out to be just what Blake needs. Though the world sees this man as deliberate and emotionless, it’s nothing but a façade. What lies underneath would shock all those who know him.
When he and his two brothers were six, eight and ten, they were tied up and forced to watch while their parents were murdered. The image has been burned into their minds, though they’ve tried to forget, leaving each of them guarded and unwilling to give their trust to anyone other than each other. No one is allowed to have their hearts. The brothers would never think of letting down their guard with anyone else, certainly not with a woman.
Follow Blake and Jewell’s journey and see if they can find a happily ever after…

Excerpts:
“Why are you doing this to me? Why here?”
“Because I can.”
The air weighed down on her lungs, and her entire body pulsed with need. The power, the loss of control, the pure lust shining from his eyes should disgust her, should fill her with fear. But, no matter what she tried, she couldn’t resist this man — this horrible, horrible man.
When he pinned her against the solid oak shelves filled with ancient texts, all she could do was reach for him, desire him, crave him.
------------------------------
“Then we are on the same page, because you won’t get anything other than my body,” she said, wishing desperately that he would give her just the slightest bit of breathing room.
“Ah, Jewell, the fire in you is what made me come back, what made me have to see this through to the end,” he said.
“How long will it be until the end?”
She waited as he silently gazed at her, nothing showing in his ice-cold eyes. She wouldn’t break the silence though. This was up to him.
“Until I’m finished with you.”

“I think there’s more between you and Jewell than you’re ready to admit, and I won’t push you, but I will tell you to be careful. If you are too cruel, you won’t stand a chance with her,” Max said as he finished his beer and then sat down.
“If I wanted counseling, I would seek a professional,” Blake told him as he looked at his watch for the hundredth time.
“Don’t worry, I throw in counseling service free of charge,” Max said with a smirk.
“How about I pay you extra to keep your mouth shut?” Blake suggested.
“You could try,” Max responded with a laugh.
“It doesn’t matter. I will soon grow weary of this woman and then I will send her on her way – in my own time – in my own way.”
“Are you trying to convince me of this or yourself?” Max asked.
“I don’t have to convince anyone and I don’t have to justify myself,” Blake said, agitated all over again.
“If that’s true, why are you getting so upset?”
“I’m not upset, Max,” Blake thundered, the wall practically vibrating.
