Return of The Black Stockings Society #2
After Hours
The best revenge?
The last thing Amera Thurston expected to receive during the holidays was a pink slip. After working five long years for the notoriously bad tempered, Curtis Bishop, she’d hoped for a raise. Angry and ready to turn the tables, she’s intrigued when she gets an invitation to join an exclusive club, and turns up at work wearing a stunning pair of sheer stockings.
Then, her life takes an unexpected turn when Curtis gets attacked and wakes up in the hospital thinking Amera is his wife!
Amera decides to take on the role to get a little revenge. But as the days pass and the charade deepens, Amera starts to fall for the man behind the beast.
Soon she starts to wonder, what will happen when his memory returns?

I was born many years ago in the American Midwest to a brave immigrant couple who decided to call themselves my parents. They moved around the country until they finally settled in Maryland. As a child I was always scribbling something and my family supported my efforts (with white knuckles and a lot of prayer).
After graduating from college, I worked various jobs and did some freelance writing hoping that one day my writing efforts would make me rich and famous and allow me to quit. That didn’t happen. Instead my last job was made redundant and I decided not to look for a new one. Instead I chose to live on my savings (and mild insanity) and write full time.
I would not recommend this route for other aspiring writers. Either marry well or have three years worth of salary saved. I took the risk because I wanted to and fortunately that same year I received an offer from a publisher for a two book contract–after a thirteen year effort, but that’s another story.

Excellent
This is the second book of this series I have read. The story was attention holding. The characters were well developed. Emotions ran high. I was happy at the end. I need some stockings!!!

So glad this series is back
Loved how strong the heroine was in this book.
In my opinion, the most interesting part was her back story and how she used her pain to help the hero.
Dara Girard never disappoints me.

This was my first read by this author but it definitely won't be my last ! The storyline was good but not overly dramatic and I am a sucker for happy endings !!!

I enjoyed this book. I loved the interactions between Amera and Curtis. I loved how she took care of him even before they actually became a couple.
