Masquerade

After six years of self-imposed celibacy, how does a woman get the nerve to lure a man into her bed? And, what if the man you want just so happens to be New Orleans most eligible bachelor who is totally out of your league? This is Joëlle Hedrick's dilemma. She wants to feel desired and loved once again, but no average man will do. Only Julian Leaumont, owner and CEO of renowned financial company, can quench the burning desire raging within her. Her opportunity arises when she attends a masquerade ball. She dons a mask and sets out to seduce him without him ever knowing her identity. However, her scheme could very well backfire in her face. Julian Leaumont basks in his success and social standing within the community. His notoriety guarantees he is never without female companionship. Yet despite his playboy reputation, he secretly wishes to settle down and start a family. Unfortunately, he has met no one he has desired enough to fulfill that wish-that is, not until he meets a mysterious woman at his company's masked ball. He wants her, and he would move heaven and earth to discover her true identity
