The Jester, the Hedonist

The Playground Book 1

“I didn’t ask if you lacked for anything. I asked you what you wanted.”

Fawn Claire’s running on empty. She sacrifices herself to help her company thrive. Now she can’t stop wincing in pain, and her social life is long gone. Terrified of total burnout, Fawn aches to save herself without failing everyone who’s counting on her.

Enigmatic stranger Cade tempts Fawn with getting enough peace and rest to heal her. Fawn treats it like a fantasy until she’s plunged into a world of rich comforts and endless hospitality. Cade’s indulgent lifestyle promises to undo the damage of Fawn’s workaholic ways if she can get past his skillful dodging of her biggest questions. A whole life waits for her to fix it back home. Growing closer to Cade, Fawn never meant to be this comfortable here. When secrets more painful than she thought possible surround her and drown her, where does she belong?
