Innocence is a commodity in Las Vegas, and Steve Calder plans to cash in on Jessie Miller’s. Hired for a med-tech sales job alongside her sharp-eyed best friend, the devout twenty-two-year-old virgin has no idea her manager is already grooming her for far more exclusive clients. This is the slow, deliberate fall of an angel who never saw the gilded trap closing around her.

MEET THE CHARACTERS

Jessie Miller

22 years old, tall and slender with straight blonde hair that falls past her shoulders. She has wide blue eyes that still hold the innocence of a girl who's never been kissed, and a quiet, gentle way of moving—like she's afraid of taking up too much space. Her small breasts and wide hips give her a striking, almost vintage silhouette, and she dresses modestly, often in soft pastels and cardigans.

Stacey Martinez

22, tan-skinned with warm brown hair cut in a shoulder-length bob, and a short, curvy body that she knows exactly how to use. She has sharp brown eyes that miss nothing, especially the way men look at her best friend Jessie. She's not quite as innocent, but she respects Jessie enough to be protective.

Steve Calder

45 years old, with a salesman's easy smile and a predator's patient eyes. He's broad-shouldered and barrel-chested, his dark hair silvering at the temples, and he wears tailored suits that cost more than his new hires make in a month. His hands are thick, clean-shaven, and always perfectly manicured—the hands of a man who's never had to get them dirty, just other people.
