Episode 4 of 6 in The Billionaire's Contract.
Rafe Garrett is NYC’s most talked-about billionaire—a ruthless negotiator, too handsome for his own good, and a man of … particular tastes.
Investigative reporter Ainsley Dumont has landed the assignment of a lifetime: prove that Rafe is behind the crooked development deal that’s threatening to ruin the careers of some of the country’s top political figures—including the President himself.
But as Ainsley gets closer to Rafe, sparks fly, and she has to balance her assignment—and her ethics—with the urge to forget who she is and be what Rafe wants. And what Rafe wants is so far outside her experience, she might lose herself … but it just might be worth it.

Well things are definitely getting twisted in this story. I have an idea of who is behind everything but only time will tell if I've guessed correctly. As the other previous novella's, this story is well written aside from the annoying, lying, weak heroine. I really like our H but it's not very clear what he finds so special about the h. There really isn't anything different about her than any of the other women that fall at his feet, and really, his kink of needing the person restrained is not all that big a deal as the author seems to want to make it out to be. I'm sure the other women he's been with have had no problems with that. Maybe he just likes being lied too and played with? I'm curious to find out what the real story is being the fraud and the but there's another part of me that also wishes that our H will dump the h and find someone more worthwhile.
He liked that she was strong and feisty, and pushed back, but the moment they started having sex she became as complacent and compliant as anyone else. The very thing he liked about her has been wiped away, yet somehow he's still interested. Sigh. Why do I torture myself like this??

Who Can You Trust?
Rafe and Ainsley, these two sizzle even when they're just kissing. Man, Rafe is the epitome of sexy. He doesn't take any ish and won't hesitate to hurt someone goes after what's his. The way he stepped right in to take care of Ainsley just made my heart smile. That man is perfection. Watching him fall for Ainsley is bittersweet because of the secret she's harboring. Poor Ainsley, I can feel her inner turmoil. It's getting harder to be both the hardcore reporter she's known to be and a woman falling for a man she's hiding a huge secret from. More so being the person who will clear Rafe's name because in her heart she knows he's innocent. So this leaves the question of who's guilty? The introduction of Rafe's brother, Miles creates new shocking theories about who can/can't be trusted. Holy freaking crap, that cliffhanger!!! I'm literally on edge waiting for the moment when everything comes to light. I received an arc in exchange for an honest review.

A Suspenseful and Sexy Read!!
This book has drama, suspense and is a sexy read!! Rafe is starting to think of a future with Ainsley. Ainsley feels the same way. Rafe could not get to Ainsley fast enough when Ainsley found the janitor dead in her bed. I think we will find someone close to Rafe is betraying him trying too destroy and discredit him. Ainsley is a pawn caught in the middle, between lying to Rafe about her double life. Ainsley wants to clear Rafe's name and write a different kind of story than she first wanted to write. Will she survive being a pawn and get caught in the crossfire of whoever is framing Rafe? Rafe is starting to trust Ainsley. Will their love survive the dishonesty and deception? I think Miles does not quite trust Ainsley and he see's how Rafe feels about Ainsley even though Rafe is in denial. I have enjoyed all 4 books. I can not wait for books 5 and 6. Tessa Blake is one of my favorite author's!!

WOW!!!!!!! I did not see that coming! See what you coming you ask, well you will have to read the book to see that.
This is the 4th episode in The Billionaire's Contract. We continue to follow Ainsley and Rafe's love story. This has been a roller coaster ride so far. This episode was a major shock. I can hardly believe the twist that occurred in this episode. Of course you are left with a cliffhanger, but that is to be expected. This series is 6 novella set as of now (9/24/16) Tessa has published the first 4 installments. I must say Tessa you have done a fantastic job with this series. You have reader on the edge of seats waiting for the next installment. I know I personally can't wait for the next one.
If you are looking for a fast pace drama filled steamy read this series is definitely for you!
