He swings me around to face him and brings me against his chest. I gasp loudly and place my hand on his chest. 

“Where do you think you are going?” 

“Over there.” I whimper, nodding in the direction of the stools. 

He stares down at me, a stare so intense it causes a shiver to run down my spine. I swallow hard, and he dips down, his warm lips covering mine. I moan and fist his tee, kissing back. Conrad runs his hand down my back and places it on the small of it to hold my body tighter to his as we kiss. I snake my arms around his neck. 

A part of me has been craving his kiss since our first one. The kiss is passionate but not forceful or rough. It is pretty perfect. Conrad’s free hand lands on my cheek. I forced my tongue into his mouth; I needed a little more. Conrad doesn’t seem to have an issue with it because his tongue soon dances in perfect sync with mine. 

I walk backwards, not parting from his lips, until my back hits a counter. There are so many emotions circulating in me. I grip his hip and pull him against me. Conrad groans loudly into my lips, and I can feel his length harden against me. He is turned on this much by just kissing me. I am the same, though. I am aroused for the first time in a long time. 

**********
One night.
One masquerade ball.
A handsome stranger. 

It is how it all began, All because I was forced to attend by my boss to pretend to be her daughter or I would be fired.

The handsome stranger's eyes fall on me the second I walk in. I hoped he would move on since he is surrounded with beautiful women, but he doesn’t. The second he decides to approach, I finally realise  he isn’t a stranger at all. He and his family own the company I work for. He can never find out who I am. 

I try everything to avoid him, but nothing works. It is hard to resist when he stares at me with those eyes and charming smile. I give in trying to fight it, spending a few hours with him can’t do any harm, right? As long as I keep my mask on, he doesn’t need to know who I am. 

I have never felt chemistry in the way I do with him, but it doesn’t matter because after tonight, I will disappear and he will have no idea who I am. Even if he walked past me in the street he wouldn’t notice because what he see is a woman who he is attracted too, one beautiful who fits in with everyone else, but in a reality I am a no one. I am nothing special. So our time spend together will only be a memory. 

Well, so I believed. I couldn’t have been more wrong because all it takes is one night and everything changes. I hoped he would have forgotten about me but  it seems to be the last thing he does. 

No matter what, he can never find out the truth because he will only end up disappointed.

Brandi Krause

This book sucks you right in!  It's so articulate and well written. It's along the lines of Cinderella, but more interesting. My heart hurts for Maya and I truly can't wait to see how this all pans out. I'm hoping Maya gets her happily ever after! Great job Author!

Marilyn Livingston

I love how she is so afraid of him finding out who she is, but it is really easy for him to do so. I can't wait until they actually meet each other.

Miile Casasnovas

Very interesting so far. I would like to know more about the characters.
