The steamy Deceived romance trilogy by Eve Carter, in the bestselling tradition of Fifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James and The Blackstone Affair by Raine Miller.
When Chloe Swanson, an innocent mid-western college graduate, lands her dream job in New York City, she doesn't realize what kind of a ride she's in for. It doesn't take long before her boss, the charming and sharp businessman Patrick Collins, deceives her into being part of his plan to land the biggest account of his life.
However, he never expected that he would fall for her. Suddenly, he finds himself trapped between a ruthless billionaire client, who has her own eyes set on Patrick, and his deep affection for the beautiful Chloe.
What follows is a sensual and passionate journey of self-discovery, as Chloe faces the harsh reality of jealousy, love and money in the big city.
Stimulating, amusing and highly arousing, Deceived is a romance that will excite and titillate your senses.

Deceived Part 3 Chloe's Revenge
A harsh metallic sound repetitively drilled into my skull. Dazed and confused, I grabbed my head with both hands to make it stop, but it was only the ring of my phone, tunneling its way into my brain. I reached out and snatched it off the nightstand, groaning, as I felt like I'd been hit by a Mack truck.
"Hello..." I rasped in a hoarse voice. I could see from the screen it was Elyse.
"Hey, Chloe, I'm just gonna be ten minutes late. See you in a bit, okay?"
"Oh my God, what time is it? I fell asleep..." I rolled up enough to look around the room, trying to locate a clock in my stupor, and then sat up.
"It's 12:30, she chirped. "Are you gonna make it?" I sensed a little angst in her voice, and I couldn't bail on her now. She wanted to hear all the juicy details of my Paris experience.
"Yea, sure, sure, I'll make it. Don't worry. See you in a bit." I flopped back on the bed exhaling an audible breath then jumped up and threw on a pair of white shorts and a purple, Pink from Victoria's Secret, T-shirt. Thank God it was still summer and hot enough to wear shoes you can step into. I shoved my feet into my favorite cork heel wedgie sandals.
On my way to the bathroom, I notice that Andrea and John...or was it Jim, were nowhere to be seen. The place was still a mess, but at least they had cleaned up all the bags of the rank, rotting food. I splashed some water on my face trying to bring myself back to life and quickly applied a light sprinkling of face powder. A few short strokes of mascara and an assessment in the mirror revealed that everything looked good as I gave myself a quick quality control check. Grabbing the souvenir mug and tote bag I had brought back for Elyse, I exited the apartment in a whoosh, as the door clicked shut behind me.
Running fashionably five minutes late, I found Elyse already seated at an outside table, just like in Paris, sidewalk cafe style. Her face brightened as I slipped into the chair across from her.
"There you are. I was getting worried you wouldn't make it," she said, rising up enough out of her seat to give me a hug.
"I'm sorry, I am so out of it today. Still suffering from jet lag." I puffed out in a breath, as I tucked a stray strand of hair behind my ear.
