Secret Bet
About this ebook
Belle Jordan is done with "glitter". As a former Marine who brokers military contracts, she values honesty above all else. When she travels to Miami to find closure at her ex-fiancé’s wedding, she doesn’t expect to be swept off her feet by Peter Morgan, the guarded heir to a massive global empire.
Peter Morgan lives by one rule: everyone has a price. To prove it, he enters into a high-stakes bet with his brother, one that requires him to keep Belle on his arm for a month to secure his majority stake in the House of Morgan.
What starts as a strategic play turns into a relentless attraction. From moonlight dances on a luxury yacht to an unexpected swim with dolphins, Belle is the only woman real enough to crack Peter’s armor. But just as they begin to trust the "spark," Peter’s ex, Jennifer, arrives to illuminate the truth behind the romance.
When the terms of the wager are revealed, Belle must decide if her heart is worth more than a trillionaire’s pride, and Peter must prove he isn't the monster his father raised him to be.

About the author
USA Today Bestselling Author, Victoria Pinder grew up in Irish Catholic Boston before moving to the Miami sun. She’s worked in engineering, after passing many tests proving how easy Math came to her. Then hating her life at the age of twenty four, she decided to go to law school. Four years later, after passing the bar and practicing very little, she realized that she hates the practice of law. She refused to one day turn 50 and realize she had nothing but her career and hours at a desk. After realizing she needed change, she became a high school teacher. Teaching is rewarding, but writing is a passion.
During all this time, she always wrote stories to entertain herself or calm down. Her parents are practical minded people demanding a job, and Victoria spent too many years living other people’s dreams, but when she sat down to see what skill she had that matched what she enjoyed doing, writing became so obvious. The middle school year book when someone wrote in it that one day she’d be a writer made sense when she turned thirty.
She’s always been determined. She is amazing, adventurous and assured on a regular basis. Her website is www.victoriapinder.com.
