the mastermind

Omar Solomon is king of the comeback. 

 

Ten years ago, his sports career ended in injury and scandal. 

But he’s been as victorious in the boardroom as he was on the pitch

Now he’s returned to London, wealthy beyond measure, influential, powerful- and sitting in the pub where I work.  

 

When he offers me a ‘no-strings-attached affair,” I forget to say no.

I forget the dark secrets of my past. 

I forget everything but his touch; his body and his mouth made for sin.

 

Our passion turns my grey existence into a vibrant, prisma-colored life. 

One that has an expiration date.

 

I vow that when his time in London is over,

We will be, too. 

And it will be for the best. 

 

Because Omar Soloman can never find out who I really am.
