Drawing the Stud — Roslyn Hardy Holcomb

Pace Whitaker is one of the few women who ever turned fabulously wealthy Jay Adams down. His alpha tendencies were too intense and she stopped seeing him after a couple of dates. Now her brother is missing, along with millions of dollars of client money. She's forced to make a multimillion-dollar wager with Jay in order to save her brother from a lengthy jail sentence.

Jay welcomes a second opportunity to get Pace into his bed, but knows he has to play his cards right, otherwise she'll run again. She'll get the money, but only if she agrees to be Jay's mistress.

Keeping her side of the bargain is no hardship for Pace. One night in Jay's arms leaves her craving more. Before long, they're all-in for a high-stakes love affair, but overcoming her fears might be more than even he can ante up for.
