The Taking of Clara 2: Taken by the Boss by Sam Crescent

 
    The
Cravings e-book Club
    The
Cravings Paranormal e-book Club
     
    Have you heard about the newest idea in ebooks ,
the ebook club? Secret Cravings Publishing has
started two ebook clubs and we invite you to become a
member of either The Cravings e-book Club or the Cravings Paranormal e-book
Club. Join now and get two books absolutely free!
     
    As a member, you will receive Trouble With a Cowboy* by Sandy Sullivan and Forget Me Not** by Jaden Sinclair FREE,
just for joining!
     
    You’ll also receive 4 BRAND-NEW
EBOOKS , specially selected by our Editorial Director, every month for a
total price of only $9.99 for all 4. This comes out to barely $2.50 per book, much
less than the retail price and you’ll be able to enjoy your books even before they hit Amazon or Barnes
& Noble. We send your books before they
are uploaded to the popular sales sites.   One of several privileges of club membership.
     
    * Trouble With a
Cowboy , a western,
erotic romance:
    Can some slashed tires and an ornery
bull bring two hard-headed people together for some fun in the sun and a little
more?
     
    ** Forget
Me Not , paranormal erotic romance:
    A war is brewing, a war that could destroy an entire
vampire race if left unchecked, and Julian Marino has been requested to
participate in it.  He stops his search for a long time friend to go home
and discovers there is more at stake than just his wants.
     
    As a member of the Cravings
Club, you’ll receive 4 books in a variety of genres every month. We will try to
match your books to your preferences, however, if
you’re a major paranormal fan, I suggest you join the Cravings Paranormal Club.
Everything is the same, 4 books every month for $9.99 except that 3 of your 4
books will be paranormal. The remaining book will be of a different genre.
     
    As a club member, you will also receive:
    ·        our monthly newsletter
    ·        sneak previews of new books
    ·        exclusive interviews with your favorite
authors
    ·        special offers not available to the general
public
     
    To join and tell us your favorite genres and heat levels   plus which format works best for you, go to
the Secret Cravings Publishing website ( www.secretcravingspublishing.com ) At
the bottom of the page you’ll see a button for the club. You can sign up there
and share your preferences for genre, format and heat level with us. You will
be charged, automatically, through PayPal, only $9.99 every month.   Your b ooks
will be shipped within 1 day after PayPal payment has cleared. You may
cancel at any time by clicking on the “unsubscribe” button located on the
Cravings Club tab at the bottom of our website and keep the FREE BOOKS as our
gift.   
     
    We hope our Secret Cravings books will delight you each and every
month.

wishes,

THE TAKING OF CLARA 2: TAKEN BY THE BOSS

    Prologue
     
    “Come
on, Mr. Baines. Surely you’ve got something else to throw into the pile,” the
man holding the pile of cards asked. “You’re either in or fucking out. Which
one is it going to be?”
    Matthew
watched the older man lick his top lip before looking down into his wallet. The
man before him was Clara Baines’s father. The disgust he felt shocked him.   Matthew had despised Edward Baines at first
sight.
    Edward’s
losses were legendary and so were the means by which he tried to pay for them.
Right now, Matthew watched him look down into his empty wallet.
