Who killed the infamous
Johanna Cartier? Sémya Slotin is thrown back in the business of solving
mysteries when she found her body. With the help of her best friend Polliannah
Koch, DCI Ally Gibbons and the mysterious but extremely sexy Josh Heinz, she
vows to see this through.
This was supposed to be
an easy case...
Sémya Slotin had spent the last three years living in London
with her best friend Polliannah Koch staying away from solving cases. After
Hawaii, she was taking a break from puzzles, cases and mysteries that could
potentially get her killed. Instead, she had been doing her second and third
favorite things, drinking and selling expensive vintage wines and having
earth-shattering sex with the mysterious, sexy, beautiful but ever so secretive
Josh Heinz. Life in London was good....until her funds ran out. Too much wine
drinking, not enough wine selling!
When fashion designer
and adoptive mother, Annika Slotin, summoned her back to Paris to hire her for
what Sémya considered being the easiest case of her amateur sleuth career, all
she could think of and see was money signs and a well-deserved Cuban holiday
once it was solved.
What Sémya didn't see was her stumbling on the fresh corpse of
supermodel Johanna Cartier. She didn't think that male model turned fashion
designer Julian Marais-Caldwin, who also happened to be Sémya's ex, would be
suspected of brutally murdering her. Johanna was his girlfriend, his muse and
he loved her. Sémya didn't see the dead bodies piling up or the conspiracy
theories.
Sémya was a little rusty. But then again, it was supposed to be
an easy case and she was going to solve it. One vintage wine at a time... Sémya
Slotin was officially back in business!
Excerpt-
Sémya hesitated
a few times before knocking on Josh’s door. She knew she shouldn’t have just
left with Julian like that yesterday but Josh was fine and Julian wasn’t.
Julian was a colossal mess. He cried in her arms more times that she would ever
care to remember. She hated narcotics but was so very grateful for them last
night. They put Julian temporary out of
his misery. She sneaked out before he got a chance to talk to her this morning.
“What!” Josh
said when he flung the door open. Josh was a bit of a night owl and was usually
sleeping past noon. She could have sworn that he was thinking about slamming it
back to her face when he saw her. “What?” He loosely wrapped his sheet around
his hips. He was blocking the entrance.
“You either
close the door or let me in Heinz, the suspense is killing me,” Sémya said to
him, one eyebrow raised. He shut the door. She was too shocked to react and by
the time she was ready to yell at him, he opened the door again. This time he
was wearing jeans. “That was fucking rude!”
He walked to
his kitchen and turned the coffee machine on. “What do you want Sémya?” He
looked at her entering his studio and closing the door behind her.
“About
yesterday at the police station… sorry I didn’t say goodbye before leaving with
Julian,” she said. She joined him. “He was in bad shape at the end of the int–”
“Or called,”
Josh interrupted, serving himself a large cup of coffee. It didn’t look like he
was going to offer her some.
“Or called,”
she repeated.
“Or texted,” he
said.
“Or texted,”
she repeated.
“Good, you made
your point. What do you want from me?”
he said. He waved his phone around, “You could have called or texted the
apology.”
“You know what,
if you don’t quit being such an asshole this will be the last conversation the
two of us will ever have,” she lashed out.
“Fine leave!
Release me!” He said matching her tone and almost smashed his cup on the table.
His nostrils were flaring and his eyes were almost yellow. Sémya had never been
so turned on in her entire life. His breathing was as fast as hers and she
could see his erection begging to be set free from his half fastened jeans.
They were
silently sizing up each other, wondering who would be the one ending their
self-impose torture. Sémya’s entire body was aching. Her nipples were so hard
her thin camisole was teasing them. She let out a small sigh while savouring
the feeling. And that was all it took for Josh to walk her way.
He kept walking
until he successfully backed her to the door. With nowhere to go Sémya raised
on her tiptoes… she had been yearning for the taste of his mouth since the
moment she stepped inside his studio. He pulled her up and wrapped her legs
around him. “Why don’t you wear dresses like a regular girl,” he groaned
pressing his erection as much as he possibly could against her centre.
She moaned back
and desperately found his lips. This was what she had wanted. She wrapped her
arms around his neck, deepening the kiss, sucking his tongue, licking his lips,
making them both more aroused by the second. He abruptly broke their kiss to
take one of her breasts in his mouth and hungrily started sucking it. She
groaned, shrieked and moaned so loudly, she was expecting the neighbours to
show up. “Josh…” she pleaded again as she arched her back to the door.
He successfully
removed both of their jeans and plunged inside her. “Sémya,” he groaned as he
kept moving faster and deeper, holding on to her against the door.
Sémya was
holding on to him as much as she could, digging her nails in, biting his
shoulders, crossing her legs even more behind his back. “Oh…my…God!” she
screamed when she felt her body contracting around Josh’s. The release was pure
heaven…
“Oh…Sémya!” he
groaned a few seconds later. She didn’t know how they could still be standing
after that performance. Her entire body was numb and alert at the same time. He
miraculously found the bed and collapsed on it with her.
“Don’t!” she
said keeping him even closer when he wanted to pull away. She could feel him
growing hard inside her again.
“Is that all
you want from me?” he let out. He was obviously struggling for control.
She caressed
his beautiful face and softly kissed him. “That’s all I want right now.”

What happened while Semya Slotin and Josh Heinz were busy
solving Johanna Cartier's murder in Bird Of Prey?
Polliannah's story... When Polliannah Koch Guryev meets John
Allen, she thinks that she's finally found her Prince Charming a tall, blond
and handsome banker. What could go wrong?
John Allen has a job to do and getting closer to the beautiful
Miss Koch Guryev is supposed to be a means to an end. But then they fall in
love. He's a hit man on a mission, she's the sister of his targets. What
possible future could they have? Now he and his Russian Princess have to leave
London for their safety.But it may already be too late for them…
Excerpt-
Polliannah looked at her wedding ring.
She was alone in her big, king size bed. Technically it was still her
honeymoon. Technically John Allen was her husband. And she still loved him… God
help her but she did. It said a lot about her and her choice of men. Now are you going to spend the rest of the
night debating how mentally disturbed you might be or are you going to get your
husband off the sofa, Pollinaska?
She left the bedroom and walked to the
living room sofa. She stopped a couple of meters away. If she came too close he
might think she was a threat and do something rather reckless. That was how
much she knew about their world. “John,” she softly called out.
He opened his eyes right away. “What’s
wrong?” He sat up right away adjusting his view in the dark.
“Come to bed, Mr. Allen,” she told him.
He didn’t say a thing back. He just got
up and followed her inside and put his gun on the night table. She quietly
removed his shirt and unzipped his pants. Once he stood completely naked before
her, she took off her nightdress and guided him back to bed. “Polli, we don’t
have to.”
“Yes we do. You don’t want to keep me
anymore?” she asked him.
“You know I do but–” She put her finger
on his lips.
“We will figure it out then,” she said
before kissing him. They both gently fell on the bed still passionately
kissing. “I want to keep you too,” she whispered against his lips.
He groaned back but tenderly explored
her body with his hands and his mouth, “You are my salvation,” he moaned.
She trembled, she moaned. She could
feel his love and she didn’t want to let go of it. Why couldn’t she have a
happy ending too? What was so wrong with her? Nobody was perfect. He was no
better or worse than her brothers. We
will find a way… She tackled him onto the bed and slowly took him inside
her. There were no more lies, no more secrets between them, they were
completely naked. She started to move
and didn’t stop until her whole body imploded and escaped through each of its cell.
He felt it too, she could tell. He
slowly rose up to kiss her, “We’ll find a way,” he mumbled before starting to
make her move again.

Sémya and Polliannah’s world is falling apart. Will they be
able to come out of this stronger?
Oh, and did I mention that Polliannah got married?
Excerpt-
She shivered involuntary. Colin would
be here soon. “Dressing me up makes Polliannah happy and right now I’ll do
about anything to make her happy,” she said. Even wearing a dress so short, it
might give Colin the wrong idea. And Vincent, he had that predatory look in his
eyes. She knew all too well what happened when he looked at her like that.
“How is she?” he asked. His expression
softened a little.
“As well as expected I guess three
weeks after losing her husband,” she
shrugged back. “She had a husband!”
“Yeah Polliannah got married!” he
chuckled back.
“I can’t believe she got married before
me,” she said thinking out loud. He gave her smug look back. “It’s not like I’m
thinking about marriage. The women in my family were not very lucky when it
comes to marriage. I like things the way they are,” she said and vigorously
nodded her head. “Yes, why would I ever think about getting married?”
Vincent smiled, “I always believed that
it would be a beach wedding. You look lovely under the sunset when your skin is
glowing almost golden. You’re not a dress person, a beautiful long off white
sarong around your waist. I’m all for topless and garlands but I don’t think
flashing the minister would be a good idea. No shoes of course, your hair would
be loose and long… well it has always been just a thought,” he said still
smiling at her.
Sémya felt her eyes makeup prickling
her, “You thought about it.” She was slowly walking towards him.
“Three and a half years Sémya, what do
you think I was thinking about?” he said. He caressed her face once she was in
front of him.
“I had no idea, Vincent… that was the
problem,” she said. She took his hand and tangled it with hers.
“Sémya… you, always you… forever you,”
he said. He sounded so desperate, so sad. Where was the big strong Vincent now?
“Vincent…” She let go of his hand to
lower his face to hers and the moment their lips touched everything changed.
There were colours in the room once more. Her world had been dull and grey for
the past three weeks and she only noticed it now. She deepened the kiss,
moaning each time their tongues touched. She felt delicious sparks all over her
body. She needed to feel his hands all over her. She wanted to feel him inside
her so badly. She needed to feel whole again. She started to walk backward
until they hit the desk. “I need you…,” she moaned against his lips and
unfastened his jeans.
“Babe… I’m here. I never left you,” he
groaned and set on her desk. He fondled and massaged her hair dropping kisses
along her neck, “Sémya… I want you,” he said when his jeans dropped on the
floor.
Sémya look at his erection and brought
it to her, “I want you too Vincent, so much,” she whispered in his ear and let
him plunged into her. They both let out
a primal growl, trembling, trying to find their balance but refusing to stop
moving. Their lips never parted as if it would break their connection if it
did. Sémya couldn’t remember the last time she felt like herself, so free… I’ve missed you so much. She felt a wave
of passion, lust and love hit her and threw her head back letting out a moan.
She was still basking in that wave when
she heard Vincent groaning against her neck. “I love you so much, Sémya.”
It was just too much for her to handle
and it finally happened… Sémya felt those tears she had been holding back for
the past three weeks rolling on her cheeks. She couldn’t stop them from falling
down and began to weep uncontrollably still in Vincent’s arm.
“Babe, what’s going on?” he asked. She
could hear the panic in his voice, but wasn’t able to answer; instead she kept
weeping even more.
