Coerced: Blackmailed by the Billionaireby Alexx Andria

This isn't my usual type of read, but I like looking outside of my little box every now and then. I am really glad I did this time.

Ms. Andria was able to to tell a story of someone who lives basically in poverty and another person who was born with the proverbial "silver spoon in his mouth" and bring them together in a not so good way, but turn it into something good. At first I didn't think this story was going to be for me, but once it was revealed why there is such a mix of feelings, well.....the rest speaks for itself.

Great job Ms. Andria!

Elizabeth Downing is a struggling artist. Her hopes of showing at the Covington Art Museum just went down the drain and to top it off, on the way out she runs into a very handsome man, talk about embarrassing. This was her last hope of finding the money to support her disabled sister. Looks like she is going to have to go to extreme lengths....like sell a kidney.

Sutton Buchanan always gets what he wants. Any way he wants it and when he wants it. So when a curvy blond artist just brushes him off, he decides to start a new project. He wants the curvy artist for his new play-toy.....his pet. He wants to own her and he will pay her well for it. No attachments, just business. Finding out that she needs money makes this so much easier for him.

Elizabeth is shocked that Sutton Buchanan would approach her with such an offer. Even more shocked that she is going to do it. This was so not her, but she had to think of Gretchen, her sister. She would do what she had to to make sure that Gretchen could stay at Rising Dawn. It is just a business agreement after all. Nothing emotional and she can still work at her art.

Will another Buchanan fall or will Elizabeth walk away, just like every other woman has done? After all, women can't be trusted.
