Description
***includes a brief preview of THE MONROE TRILOGY***
She’s taking back what was stolen from her. He’s the bonus.
One bad decision destroys not only Sarah Clayborn’s life, but nearly costs her a lucrative job as the chief executive assistant to the city’s most powerful player. She’s lost her unborn child, her twin brother’s admiration, and any shred of decency her British-born mother instilled in her.
To cope with the trauma, Sarah creates a persona – Angel. She’s the one who goes out on weekends and gets into trouble. She’s the one who seduces half the world’s rabble-rousers.
She’s the one who meets Lucas Blackbourne.
Sarah’s encounter with Lucas was supposed to be a one-time affair. A tenuous balm on her frigid heart that refuses to heal. But when she returns to work Monday morning and discovers that Lucas is helping her boss for the foreseeable future?
Two halves start to become whole again. And it’s not pretty.
What does Sarah want? Choice. A future. A sense of belonging in a world often too cruel to bear.
To be empowered.
But she can’t reclaim her life on her own.
Reviews
Mind-boggling, complex, deep, dark romance by a truly great author.
5By lynnecudaAnything written by Cynthia Dane is sure to be excellent, intriguing, scintillating, thought-provoking and sexy. Maybe even a little dark. Empowered hits on all points. More than a romance, it's a woman's journey to take back control of her life, even if her method is a little unorthodox. A lot unorthodox. But hey, she may have met Mr Right at her monthly visit to the sex club dressed as her alter ego Angel. Sarah is a no-nonsense, perfectly organized (at least she will give this impression) administrative assistant to the billionaire Monroes whom we met in the Monroe Trilogy. But the father of her boss did her wrong, majorly wrong,so to 'get him back' symbolically or get all billionaires back symbolically or whatever she's decided in her mind, Sarah makes a trip to New York, to a sex club, disguises herself completely, makes a move on whomever she wants to for the night, controls the encounter, goes back home, back to work. Until she meets the Danish guy, has sex, and sees him Monday morning at work! Lucas Blackbourne, best friend of her boss Damon Monroe. Does he recognize her? Surely not....Read this incredible book that I could not put down and find out for yourself.
