A traitor lies within.

CALLIE

I met him at a basement party when we were fourteen. I was looking for an adventure, he was looking for an escape. That night, we found both and never looked back.

We traveled on a wayward path for far too long. Tommy turned to a life in the shadows. Me? A life between the sheets. All that time, I thought I was addicted to sex.

Turns out, I was just addicted to him.

We took a lot of wrong turns, met a lot of bad people on the way to the salvation we've managed to find in each others arms.

I thought when we walked away, there were no loose ends.

Turns out, I was wrong about that, too.

TOMMY

By the time she came to me, I was already a walking statistic. That night, though, something inside me sparked to life. A fate neither of us could comprehend erupted, exploded.

The second I saw her in that basement fifteen years ago, I think a part of me already knew. I took her hand and we never looked back. I gave her excitement, she gave me hope.

For over a decade, we belonged to the dark corners of the city, denying ourselves nothing in the name of lust and survival. When I finally walked away, I made a lot of enemies, but it was never about them, only her.

It's always been her.

I never regretted my choice to walk away, because it was that choice that gave me the courage to finally take her as mine and mine alone.

At first, we thought they'd let us go. For months, we thought we'd escaped.

We were wrong.

Our past has come knocking and now, it wants us back.

I loved the first two books in the series. This one started out with just too much sex for me. I actually skimmed over much of the beginning BUT then it got good! We find out a little more about Callie and Tommy's relationship, how they came to be together in the first place, and more about their past. Once the book got there, I was hooked.

Traitor picks up right where Savage left off which I loved. Callie and Tommy's old life has called them back in. Man, I don't know how they survived it all in the first place! And then to overcome a lot of it. Getting to see how these two were raised was interesting and learning some Cajun French was fun!

“I swear it. Those pictures aren’t my fu$$*ing fairy tale, Tommy,” she says quietly against my lips. “You are.”

WOW! Kate Benson knocked this one out of the park. I was as addicted to reading it as Callie and Tommy are addicted to each other! It had all the hot, steamy sex that the first two in the series had. The “good doctor” has the naughtiest and sexiest mouth EVER! The man is HOT!!!! However, what struck me most was the suspense and the twists and turns the book took. Traitor picks up right where Savage ended. Just when I thought Callie and Tommy had put their mistakes and bad choices behind them, their past comes crashing back with a “vengeance.” Will it finally destroy them; will they survive?

Benson continues to amaze me with her character development and her ability to make me feel so much emotion for them. I mean, seriously this woman makes you fall for an ex-drug addict who becomes a doctor and an escort!!!! It takes major talent to do that, but Benson does, and she does it well. As each outer layer of the characters are peeled away in each book, I was able to see them in a way that made me empathize with them and fall in love with them. She continues to reveal even more about Tommy and Callie in Traitor as they are forced to be involved with their parents again, and how their childhood shaped them. It also forces them to finally become the people they were meant to be, not only as a couple but as individuals.

If you like an erotic yet sweet romance, you should really check out this whole series. I have never read an erotic romance that has brought me to tears by the depth of love and devotion of two people, yet I did with this book. I always like a book that keeps my attention but challenges my thoughts on certain issues. This series does just that. Benson challenged my perceptions of people who society may deem as lost and worthless. She did that with Callie. Most people would see her as less than human because of her choice to be an escort. Let me say if my back was against the wall, I would want her in my corner, she is a bada##! The most important lesson was your past doesn’t have to determine who you become, it’s never too late to change the course of your life. I have been a fan of Kate Benson since her very first book, and she continues to amaze me. However, I have to say this is her BEST book for me! She truly outdid herself with this one!

I was lucky to have the opportunity to read all three books, Escort, Savage, and Traitor. These books all go together, and picks up right where the other one left off. I highly recommend reading them in order, as a series. There really is no other way to read these books. Traitor could be very confusing without the other two books, and just interesting, to say the least.

Tommy and Callie have come from basically the same walks of life. In Escort we learn that Callie has a horrid secret that only Tommy really knows about. Callie insists she only does it to pay the bills, and make ends meet. Tommy swears she's killing herself slowly, and it pains him to see her the way she is. Escort is told in Callie's point of view. We see through her eyes what she does for a living, how she copes, and what she sees Tommy feeling. When the end of the book rolls around we watch Callie, and Tommy enter into a dangerous relationship that may potentially ruin anything they had going for them.

Savage is told from Tommy's point of view. The readers watch as he slips into a depression that is hard to come out of. He watches as Callie basically kills herself over her job, and tries to convince her otherwise that she shouldn't do what she's doing. It was interesting to read Tommy's point of view. The readers were able to witness his feelings grow from when they first met to the moment he knows that he has to be with Callie. Do they end with their happily ever being each other?

Traitor leaves off where Savage left off. The fact that Kate kept the reader so well in touch with the other two books that there was no question in the matter when it came to this book in the series. The past has come back to get them. And when things start looking gloom for our new lovebirds, there is no doubt that the reader is on the edge of their seats. The twists, turns, plot "holes", and the HOT sex that happens between these two in Traitor was just - wow. I definitely recommend this series, and think that any reader would appreciate the story behind these two.

Kate Benson wrote a wonderful series in the Callie Leveaux Series. The fact that she introduced the series with not much being known of Callie, and Tommy was very well written. She didn't leave the reader guessing in the first two books, and she kept the reader intrigued in her books. The only reason I am giving this book a 4 Bar review is because there were a few moments that I did lose some interest in the book. Nothing negative to say about Kate's writing though!

**Received an ARC in exchange for an honest review**

Holy Smokes this series was freaking awesome. There was so much going on and I loved the whole drama, suspense, hot sex and action this whole series took me into.

I love, love reading dual POV's, it's always nice to read both sides and what they're thinking and saying instead of just reading it from one perspective.

Callie and Tommy fit perfectly together, they're both such rebels and hot damn they are one absolutely hot couple. Tommy made my insides tingle, he was so, so, so freaking hot and to top it off he was a hot as hell doctor. I mean, seriously a hot doctor who also dominated in the bedroom (hot diggie damn)!!

This third and finally installment to the story will take you for a loop, things I never expected happen and who would have thought that a boy growing up doing the wrong things could turn out to straighten out his life and become a doctor. But he has a price to pay for hanging with the wrong crowd when he was young.

The one thing Tommy won't relent on is Callie's safety. He will do absolutely whatever he feels the need to protect what's his. He has loved Callie since the first time they met at a dirty basement and lost their virginity to each other. Callie has loved Tommy but was too blind to notice her love for him until he gave her an ultimatum. The best thing that could ever happen to her is Tommy!

They go through some ups and downs in this series, they will not stop at nothing when it comes to protecting each other and they will not do things without each other by their side (cute)!

What will happen? Will they fight for their lives and be able to get out of this alive and move forward in peace or will they get caught in the line of fire? The last thing they want is to have anything to do with their past. They just want to move forward, the question is can they without danger lurking in their paths?

This is definitely a must read series. It will keep you entranced. Oh my lordy lord the sex scenes in this series will keep your panties nice and wet and you'll definitely need to change them quite a few times :)

I totally recommend these books. Ms. Benson did a fabulous job with this series and I can't wait to read what she releases next.

5.0 stars!!

Holy mother of I don't know what. Kate Benson has blown me away again with another amazing book. Traitor is the 3rd and final installment in the Callie Leveaux series and it does not disappoint. My heart is still racing. There's not only the steamy as all get out sex scenes but the story line between Tommy and Callie just got better and better. this is one book/series I can say is not predictable. you think you know what's going to happen and Kate has your mind spinning with what does happen. you never see it coming. the suspence that is in this book will have you on the edge of ur seat and clutching your device or book so hard.

with the way Savage ended I had to dive right in to Traitor and it had me from the first page. I just couldn't put it down. I didn't want the story to end.

those who have yet to read this book or this series for that matter are missing out. get your copy today.

This is the third book in the Callie Leveaux series and is told in joint point of view.
Callie has given up her job as an escort and she’s in love and in a relationship with Tommy. All is going well when their past comes back to haunt them and puts them in danger.
Wow Tommy and Callie’s story just gets better and better. I wasn’t expecting this book to take the turn that it did when Callie’s life is threatened Tommy reverts to his past life and comes out fighting...literally.
As always with these two the sex is so hot my kindle almost set alight but add to that the suspense and the shock plot twist and you have the perfect Kate Benson book.
Although all the loose ends were nicely tied up I’m hoping we get more of Callie and Tommy and I would love to read his back story.
Absolutely loved the entire series from start to finish.....more please.

In the first two books you get to know Callie and Tommy. You fall in love with their story and their unconditional love for each other. In Traitor, you’re pulled into their world of figuring out how to be together and while trying to keep the past in the past. Traitor was INTENSE. It gave me chills in some parts, making me feel like I was witnessing it all first hand. It was my favorite of the three, and when it ended I was sad. I wanted to know what happened to Callie and Tommy in a life AFTER Traitor. For me, one of my favorite parts was learning the Cajun French language. Benson translates it for you at the end so you understand what they are saying, which I thought was very creative. It made the story feel more real. It’s a good, sexy, intense read that will make you want to push to end just to see what happens.

Traitor is book 3 in The Callie Leveaux Series, it is also the last book in the series. It can not be read as a standalone, you must read Escort and Savage first. Traitor picks up where Savage left off.

I love both Tommy and Callie. They both seems like to broken souls that are prefect for each other. In the very beginning Callie seemed a little off to me but it didn't take long for her to show her true self. Tommy and Callie have seemed to get themselves into some trouble. Both are keeping secrets from each other and trying to solve the problem in different ways.

There's a lot that goes on in this book. It keeps you guessing what's going to happen next.

Kate Benson has done it again and given us another amazing read.
Traitor is the final instalment in the Callie Leveaux Series and believe me you won't be disappointed. This book keeps you in suspense with lots of twists and turns along the way as we follow Tommy and Callie as they desperately try to protect each other from falling back into the lives they have worked so hard to pull each other away from, but can they finally get the HEA they both deserve. A fantastic end to a fabulous series, these books are a definite must read but they do need to be read in order (Escort, Savage then Traitor). I'm excited to see what Kate gives us next.

Wow! This book took me through so many emotions. I laughed, cried, held my breath, cried some more and breathed a sigh of relief. It was absolutely wonderful. It was the perfect ending to this series. I loved Tommy throughout this series but loved him more than ever in this book. He was absolutely amazing. Callie showed incredible strength and devotion through the book. It was truly phenomenal and I couldn't have asked for a better ending to this crazy wonderful couple. Well done yet again Kate!

5 Crazy Ass Must Read Stars!!!!!

Kate Benson does it again with the third installment of the Callie Leveaux Series. It was a little sad to read the ending to Callie and Tommy's story. I do wish there was a bit more but maybe there might be a little novella soon (hint, hint). I love Kate Benson's writing and how she just draws you into the story, keeping you swiping pages. I also love the unpredictability of the story. Just when I thought it was going one way, I was floored with the direction it took.

This series is a Crazy Ass Must Read!

Book three in The Callie Leveaux Series. You must read Escort and Savage first.

What can I say about Tommy and Callie besides how much I love them. Love the series! The two of them compliment each other.

There's a lot that goes on in this book. Secrets..Lies...Trust. Both ALWAYS standing by each other and working through it all.

Lots of suspense! I was shocked how things got twisted and who you think is the "bad" guy maybe not be!

I don't want this series to end!

Great ending

Wow, what an incredibly dark, twisted amazing series. I'm in love with this author's writing and her ability to create a story that plays out like a movie while reading. From the first to the last page of this particular one I was hooked and couldn't stop reading. As dark and raw as both Tommy and Cal were, I couldn't help but fall in love with them and continue rooting for their happily ever after.

Kate has given Tommy and Callie the most heart pounding story and an amazing ending to finish their series off. You will be left on the edge of your seat needing to know what is going to happen next, to the point your can't put the book down. Kate has this ability to have you feeling that you are living in the characters bodies while reading their story. Traitor is a must read

Traitor is the third book in the series and there are so many twists and turns you can’t put it down. I fell in love with Tommy and Callie in Book one and was so happy to be able to read all three book together to get the complete story.

The whole series is well written and luckily all three are available so no cliffhangers. You must read the first two books to get the whole story but it is so worth it. Thus series is so different from her other books but it was well worth the read and a pager turner that I couldn’t put down.
