With red hair as captivating as the fires of the sun and curves that entrance Eva for days, it\u2019s no wonder that the most sought-after lesbian heiress in New England has found the woman of her dreams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet not everyone is happy for Eva. Such as her mother, the monstrous Isabella Warren. If this woman has one goal in her life, it\u2019s to harangue her daughter for not only her \u201clicentious\u201d lifestyle, but her inability to be the object of Isabella\u2019s ladder-climbing ways. What good is a daughter, after all, who refuses to date men, let alone marry them and beget their children? (Especially if there\u2019s a very discerning rich man willing to take her!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eva\u2019s life is turned upside-down when her mother delivers an ultimatum: dump Nadia and go out with a man selected for her, or forfeit her entire inheritance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the country\u2019s most experienced alpha lesbians doesn\u2019t simply roll over for her mother. When Eva discovers a loophole in her parents\u2019 will that can forever ensure her inheritance, she knows she has to take it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>That means marrying Nadia. Now.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But before Nadia will consent to marriage, she needs to know that Eva is truly the love of her life. Can they weather the storm of Eva\u2019s business crumbling beneath her? Can Nadia look her future mother-in-law in the eye and reclaim her pride?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Can Nadia be assured that Eva won\u2019t get bored of her vanilla ways the moment their relationship is official?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>They have three months to sort it out and say \u201cI Do.\u201d With any luck, they\u2019ll survive.<br><br>Otherwise, it may mean saying goodbye to the only love that\u2019s ever mattered.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>\u201cA good girl is someone who hasn\u2019t encountered the perfect temptation.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ladylike heiress Audrey Weathersby is careful to never rock her family\u2019s boats. They don\u2019t even know about her ex-girlfriends or her fake IDs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But it\u2019s that fake ID that leads her to the&nbsp;<strong>hottest club in the city<\/strong>. While her friends tear up the dancefloor, however,&nbsp;<strong>Audrey meets the foil to her suppressed desires<\/strong>&nbsp;and curiosity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dylan.&nbsp;<strong>The resident bad girl&nbsp;<\/strong>with an affinity for good girls like Audrey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What begins as a&nbsp;<strong>torrid fling&nbsp;<\/strong>soon transforms into something that opens Audrey\u2019s eyes to the life she\u2019s always wanted. The longer she\u2019s with Dylan, the more she realizes the sources of her suffocation. A toxic family. Airheaded friends. Caring for nothing but the trappings of wealth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>\u201cA bad girl is someone who refuses to accept the status quo.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dylan has dated her fair share of heiresses, but Audrey is the first one to make her believe in a chance at love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet it\u2019s not easy to give over to someone like Audrey. She r<strong>epresents everything Dylan has spent her whole life rejecting<\/strong>, for she knows all too well what it\u2019s like to be forced into the good girl role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And&nbsp;<strong>her past is constantly threatening to ruin everything&nbsp;<\/strong>she\u2019s built for herself since her darkest days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>\u201cGood girls don\u2019t go bad.
