"Dark Bishop"

A dangerous game has begun. 
Sydney. Her skin felt as soft as it looked. I shouldn’t have touched her, but I couldn’t help myself. I’ve been to New Orleans dozens upon dozens of times. It’s a unique city, filled with tourists and superstition. And until tonight, I’d never been superstitious. 
An old fortuneteller freak stopped me on the way to the diner and said I would make a decision that would change my path. She didn’t know that I’d walked the path to this very restaurant before. It had been a few years. 
Who knew that the decision to return would be blessed with a beauty—five foot six with curves in all the right mouth-watering places. Clothed in cheap polyester, stained with God only knew what, Sydney was a vision. Blonde hair to her waist. Big brown doe eyes. I could almost taste her. 
In his game, everyone’s a pawn… 
I didn’t miss the rumble of her stomach when I asked her to dine with us. She was hungry. Something that flashed in those eyes told me it wasn’t because she just skipped lunch today. Maybe I could meet some of her needs. Forget that. I could definitely meet her needs, but it was up to her to let me. So, I left her my business card, my number. 
Girls like Sydney, they’re afraid. They never make the first move. Most never even make the second. I doubt she’d call. I’d tipped her well, not because she was the best waitress I’d ever had, not even because she was within my sites. I tipped her so that when I came back to the diner, she would remember me. She would want to serve me. 
And, oh, would she ever serve me. I just have to play my cards right. 
…and he’s never lost a game. 


******************

Sydney is just a simple, beautiful girl following her dreams. When she meets Jake Bishop she is take back by how handsome he is. He shows interest in her and before long she is living with him. We not only get to get see the sweet side Jake has with Sydney but we see all of his sides and let me tell you they aren't all pretty. I was hoping he was going to have a redeeming quality about him but he really is a monster. The way he feels about Sydney too is a bit odd but it all makes sense in the end. The sex scenes they were pretty hot but some were a bit disturbing. It's defiantly a suspense book you will be on edge waiting of r it all to blow up in Jake's face. The ending ... totally didn't see all that coming.
