Is that what I’m feeling?
It’s been so long since my heart didn’t feel like it was aching that I’m not even sure anymore. Maybe that’s what I’m experiencing right now. Maybe it’s something else.
“You know what? I think I’ll come with you.” I close my laptop and stand, stretching.
“You sure? It’s a little bit of a walk.”
“I realize I make more money than you, but I think I can afford to walk a few blocks,” I tell her. Once again, Dolly laughs, and I’m caught off-guard by how easy it is to talk to her. Most of the time, talking to women feels like a nightmare for me. It’s one of those experiences where I’m kind of off my game.
The two of us ride down to the lobby and exit the building, walking past the guards and starting down the sidewalk. We head to the end of the block and turn. Dolly chats about her day. She complains about the elevators and the maintenance people, and she makes a joke about how many birds sit outside the office. Things feel comfortable for once. They feel easy.
We’re having such a good time that I don’t notice the van pulling up next to us.
I don’t notice her stop walking and standing back.
I don’t notice the men getting out of the car.
I don’t notice anything until the whole world goes black.
The story will continue in Dirty Little Billionaires, Book 2.

Deleted Scenes
Authors have a lot of difficult choices to make when they write a story. One of the hardest is which scenes will stay, and which ones will go. Here I’ve collected a few of my favorite scenes with Ryan and Alex. I hope you love them!
Ryan
SHE’S TOO PERFECT.
Everything about her is amazing. I know that I don’t deserve her, but tonight, I’m going to try.
“Come with me,” I tell her.
“Where are we going?”
She’s still suspicious sometimes. We adore each other, but she’s not used to the fact that I could take her anywhere on a moment’s notice.
She wants to fly to France?
