Rules of Arrangement - Paperback

by Maren MacKenzie (Author)

A ten-page paper on the Cold War? Three hundred dollars. Need it by tomorrow? Four hundred. Want an A? Five.

Cash-strapped college senior Adelaide Wright doesn't give discounts-she can't afford to. Writing papers for other students is an expulsion-worthy risk, but Adelaide thinks she might actually make it to graduation day-until Declan, her art history TA, threatens to reveal her secret.

Declan won't turn her in to the university on one condition: she must recover his stolen paintings from a notoriously cutthroat art dealer.

Jack Nolan is older, wealthy, and exacting, a power player in a world where money, sex, and high art rule. Adelaide's only way into his exclusive circle is through an arrangement that leaves her at Jack's beck and call. But can she handle being his arm candy without revealing her true motives? And as the chemistry unexpectedly sparks between them, is it possible that Jack isn't quite the villain Declan described?

As Adelaide's relationship with Jack intensifies, so do Declan's demands. Soon the only thing holding her in place is a delicate tangle of secrets and lies that threatens to unravel at any moment...
