     This wasn’t the first time I couldn’t pay my bills. My current job wasn’t enough. I needed something better. And when an offer presented itself, I knew I couldn’t say no. There was just one problem –exotic dancing at men’s clubs wasn’t exactly my expertise. The expectations of me were simple –work the parties and give the men their ultimate fantasy, the unattainable dream. Okay, anything to not have to worry about money ever again. Then he walked through the door. Mr. Tall, Dark, and incredibly Sexy. From the moment I saw him, I knew I had to have him. My mind raced with ways I could turn my own budding fantasy into his reality. But it wasn’t that easy. I was in a bind. He was off limits. I’d do anything to make him see me among the many others. Whatever he asked, I’d do. The more I learned about him, his dark secrets and the reasons he was off limits, the more I wanted to wrap my legs around him. And when my time came, I couldn’t help but think I was in way over my head and should have listened to the warnings to stay away. Mature audience only. 18+
