“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves,” April said. “I mean, I don’t know anything about running for office. I’m going to need all the help I can get.”

“I’ll do whatever I can to support you,” Vicki said. “And when you become a councilwoman, you can help me out with building permits.”

Vicki had taken a job as CEO at a smaller property development company, one that was far more scrupulous than Oasis. It was a step up in terms of her career, but she had taken a pay cut. It was worth it.

“I’m pretty sure giving my girlfriend building permits would be an abuse of my position. Although it could be fun to have all that power over you. To have you at my mercy.” Her eyes twinkling, April stood on her toes to speak into Vicki’s ear. “I could even make you beg.”

Vicki narrowed her eyes. “You’ve been trying to push my buttons all day. And I don’t like it.”

April gave her a cheeky smile. “What are you going to do about it?”

“Oh, you’re going to be in so much trouble when we get home.”

With her arms still around April, Vicki couldn’t help but notice the tiny shift in the other woman’s body at her words, and the hint of scarlet that spread up her cheeks.

“I can’t wait.” April kissed Vicki gently and took her hand. “Come on. Let’s go mingle.”

Lindsey had big plans for her post-art school life—a successful art career, excitement, adventure, meeting the man of her dreams. She never expected she'd end up joining a sugar baby website to pay off her crippling debt. And she definitely didn't expect that her first client would be a charming, vivacious woman named Camilla.

The older woman has an unusual proposal for Lindsey—move into her mansion for three months as her girlfriend and submissive, and all of Lindsey's financial woes will disappear. It's the perfect solution to Lindsey's problems, and she can't say no to three months of pleasure and luxury beyond her wildest dreams. Camilla has made it clear that she's comfortable with the arrangement. A difficult life has left the solitary woman hesitant to let anyone get too close. And Lindsey isn't attracted to women, anyway. It's all just a charade.

Until it isn't. When Lindsey can no longer deny her feelings toward her Mistress, she runs the risk of losing everything. It was all supposed to be pretend. One big lie.

What happens when the lie becomes the truth?

“Lindsey,” Mr. Grant said. “Can I see you in my office?”

“Sure.” Lindsey removed her headset and got up from her desk.

She followed her boss through the call center. It was a honeycomb of identical cubicles, all with the exact same desk, computer, and phone. The walls were painted green, no doubt in an attempt to make everyone forget they were cooped up in a tiny, windowless office for eight hours a day. But the paint had faded to a pale, sickly color, which made it even more depressing.

Lindsey sighed. How had she ended up here? All her life, she’d had such big plans. She was going to be a renowned artist, whose works were displayed in galleries all over the world. She was going to travel to exotic places, and have a string of passionate love affairs before meeting the man of her dreams in some tiny European town. And they’d fall in love and live the rest of their lives in a villa in the countryside.

Then Lindsey had grown up. Well, the world had forced her to grow up.

They reached Mr. Grant’s office. Lindsey sat down on the stiff plastic chair in front of his desk.

“I think you know what this is about, Lindsey.” Mr. Grant tented his fingers in front of his chest. “Your numbers have been slipping lately.”

His voice rang with concern, but just like everything else in this place, it was false. Everyone pretended to give a crap, when really, all they cared about was a paycheck. Lindsey saw through it because she feigned the same enthusiasm around her coworkers and the potential customers she called. She was surprisingly good at this job, at selling lies and convincing unsuspecting retirees to sign up for overpriced insurance. Lindsey didn’t like what that said about her.

“Do you want to tell me what’s going on?” Mr. Grant asked.

“It’s nothing,” Lindsey said. “I’m just having an off week.”

“It’s not just this week, Lindsey. Your performance has been steadily dropping for a while now.” He leaned back in his chair. “Do you still want this job?”
