Three Simple Rules (The Blindfold Club #1)

  “Hey,” I said softly, nudging him awake.

  “Hey,” he mumbled back.

  “So, uh, Payton’s in the living room.”

  Logan rolled slowly onto his back, blinking his sleepy eyes at me, still not really awake.

  “She got fired from the club last night.”

  His eyes went clear and he launched upright, fully awake. “Payton was working at the club?”

  “Apparently, and she thinks you’re the reason she got fired. Why’s that?”

  “She must have gone in,” he said on a whisper, “when we canceled last night.” It was like he was thinking out loud.

  His phone rang on the nightstand, the screen flashing an impossibly long number, and Logan’s alarm grew when he glanced at it. I could barely hear him over the ringtone.

  “Oh, shit, Evie,” he said. “I think I did something I shouldn’t have.”

  THANK YOU

  _____

  To my awesome husband. You are the fucking best.

  _____

  To my beta reader Robin Bateman for your amazing notes and fantastic support.

  _____

  To my editor Lori Whitwam for your hard work, putting up with my overuse of the word “that,” and your enthusiasm for the book.

  _____

  To my publicist Neda Amini for enduring my random questions, for helping me find an audience, and everything else you did to give this dirty book a great launch.

  _____

  To my best friend Amanda (don’t you dare call her Mandy) for showing me that my ending needed tweaking when you ran a kick-ass Chicago Marathon.

  _____

  To my former boss Adam for blowing off the meeting I spent months preparing for, so you could go get a massage the Friday before your race weekend. When I needed to introduce Logan’s character in an asshole way, I instantly thought of you.

  THREE HARD LESSONS

  I am the woman men pay thousands of dollars to fuck. I do what I love and what I’m so very good at.

  Then, he walks in and drops $30,000. He wants to talk. And kiss. And take me home.

  In a single night, this man turns everything upside-down and has me breaking every rule I’ve lived by to keep men at a distance. I’m about to learn some lessons the hard way.

  Don’t tease him. Don’t give him boundaries. And don’t think you get a choice in who you love.

  IF YOU ENJOYED THE BOOK

  What had originally started as a novella and bloomed into a full-length novel, then a series, has been an absolute joy to write--one I could not stop, much like a drug. Thank you so much for taking the time to read Evie and Logan's story. If you enjoyed it, would you be so kind as to let other readers know via an Amazon review or on Goodreads? Just a few words can help an author tremendously and are always appreciated!

  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  Nikki Sloane fell into graphic design after her careers as a waitress, a screenwriter, and a ballroom dance instructor fell through.

Now she lives in Kentucky and manages a team of graphic artists. She is married and has two sons, writes both romantic suspense and dirty books, and couldn’t be any happier.
