Provoke 

The Backbone & Burlesque Series Book One

I gave up my safe life for my dream job, but now my boss is MIA and my future hangs in the balance. 

Burlesque lounge Titter is in financial ruin, but I’m only a bartender turned costume designer; I can’t fix it without Ms. P, Titter’s owner and resident house mother. After being MIA for months, I receive word she’s never coming back; the lounge now belongs to her nephew, M. Petrova. The uncertainty of a crumbling future has me hanging by one glittery thread.

A night down the block at our local watering hole is just what I need to temper the stress. And if my carefree escapade happens to serve up a side of sexy stranger? All the better to forget, even if for just one night.

Except my one night romp is unintentionally with the lounge’s sexy new owner, and we can’t keep our hands or our conflicting ideas to ourselves. One little bet to save everything I love, and I’ve got a sinking feeling Mischa Petrova spells curtains for both Titter and my heart.
