Annette Remmington is a London art consultant and private dealer. With a roster of wealthy clients who trust her good eye and judgment, she is at the top of her game. Annette is married to her mentor and personal champion, the much older Marius. For twenty years, he has groomed her into the success that she has become, not to mention saving her from a dark and gritty past. Annette is Marius's pride and joy, and as her best advisor, he has handpicked Jack Chalmers to do Annette's profile in a popular newspaper. Marius believes only Jack—one of London's most esteemed journalists—will be able to capture the true brilliance of his beloved wife. But Marius never intends to put his marriage in jeopardy....How could he have known that the connection between Jack and Annette would ignite so many secrets? And how could he know that Jack would uncover a scandal that could ultimately destroy them all?

"PLAYING THE GAME [is] scintillating...plenty of intrigue, secrets, and steamy encounters."—Booklist
