Paperback. She needed money. She got danger. She found love. But some fantasies come with a price you never expected to pay.Marianna Whitney is drowning. At thirty-five, she's tried everything to earn her father's approval-five careers, countless compromises, endless apologies for never being enough. But when a cracked windshield and mounting bills push her to the breaking point, her best friend Jewel offers an escape: Courtesans, an exclusive San Francisco agency that pairs wealthy clients with high-end companions.One night. One client. Enough money to change everything.What Marianna doesn't know is that Courtesans is more than a matchmaking service. Its elegant Nob Hill facade hides a world of carefully curated fantasies, unspoken desires, and secrets that powerful men will kill to protect. The agency's founder built an empire on discretion, and she guards her clients' identities with ruthless precision.Enter Chase Ramirez. A widower consumed by guilt over his wife's suicide, he wants only a distraction from the darkness closing in around him. When his friend arranges a date with a courtesan, Chase expects a hollow transaction. What he finds is Marianna-a woman whose vulnerability mirrors his own, whose laughter makes him forget to grieve, whose touch makes him feel alive for the first time in two years.Their connection is electric, forbidden, and utterly unexpected. As their arrangement deepens, Marianna begins to believe she's found something real. The jewelry Chase gives her isn't payment-it's love. The nights they spend together aren't transactions-they're promises.But in a world built on fantasy, the truth is always waiting to shatter the illusion.When Marianna accompanies her father to a charity gala, she comes face-to-face with a client from her past-a man who knows her secret. As blood drains from her father's face, she realizes the horrifying truth: Brock Ransom isn't just her client. He's her father's business associate. And the comment he makes suggests her father knows exactly what she's been doing.Or does it?Suddenly, Marianna is trapped in a nightmare of assumptions and accusations. Her family's reputation hangs by a thread. The man she loves has no idea who she really is. And the agency that promised protection has become the greatest threat of all.When Chase discovers Marianna has disappeared, he'll stop at nothing to find her.

She needed money. She got danger. She found love. But some fantasies come with a price you never expected to pay.
Marianna Whitney is drowning. At thirty-five, she's tried everything to earn her father's approval-five careers, countless compromises, endless apologies for never being enough. But when a cracked windshield and mounting bills push her to the breaking point, her best friend Jewel offers an escape: Courtesans, an exclusive San Francisco agency that pairs wealthy clients with high-end companions.
One night. One client. Enough money to change everything.
What Marianna doesn't know is that Courtesans is more than a matchmaking service. Its elegant Nob Hill facade hides a world of carefully curated fantasies, unspoken desires, and secrets that powerful men will kill to protect. The agency's founder built an empire on discretion, and she guards her clients' identities with ruthless precision.
Enter Chase Ramirez. A widower consumed by guilt over his wife's suicide, he wants only a distraction from the darkness closing in around him. When his friend arranges a date with a courtesan, Chase expects a hollow transaction. What he finds is Marianna-a woman whose vulnerability mirrors his own, whose laughter makes him forget to grieve, whose touch makes him feel alive for the first time in two years.
Their connection is electric, forbidden, and utterly unexpected. As their arrangement deepens, Marianna begins to believe she's found something real. The jewelry Chase gives her isn't payment-it's love. The nights they spend together aren't transactions-they're promises.
But in a world built on fantasy, the truth is always waiting to shatter the illusion.
When Marianna accompanies her father to a charity gala, she comes face-to-face with a client from her past-a man who knows her secret. As blood drains from her father's face, she realizes the horrifying truth: Brock Ransom isn't just her client. He's her father's business associate. And the comment he makes suggests her father knows exactly what she's been doing.
Or does it?
Suddenly, Marianna is trapped in a nightmare of assumptions and accusations. Her family's reputation hangs by a thread. The man she loves has no idea who she really is. And the agency that promised protection has become the greatest threat of all.
When Chase discovers Marianna has disappeared, he'll stop at nothing to find her. But the truth about Courtesans-about the clients, the secrets, the lies-could destroy them both. Because Marianna isn't the only one hiding something. The man she's fallen for carries his own dark weight, a guilt so profound it threatens to swallow him whole.
And the father she's spent her life trying to impress? He has secrets that would shatter their family forever.
