Blackrock, Maine ~ Present Day

Declan Gates grew up an outcast in a family abhorred by the citizens of Blackrock. One bright spot for him was the friendship of Lily Wharton, but all that ended abruptly amidst a scandal when they were teens, and Declan hasn’t forgotten the pain he suffered. Now a billionaire, Declan is back after hearing rumblings that Lily wants to buy his family’s property. Well, he has some unfinished business with the lady!

Lily has built a company of her own and envisions buying the Gates estate to breathe financial life back into her hometown. But the return of Declan poses two problems: he is resistant to selling to her, and the other is that she is still attracted to him. Lily finally comes to a proposed agreement with Declan on buying the property, but at an outlandish price. He also sticks around in Blackrock, tempting Lily with rekindling their relationship and taking it to another level, that of a woman and man.

BLACK SHEEP BILLIONAIRE has the feel of a gothic romance, with its dark mansion and the forbidden love between a rebel and the good girl who cannot resist him. Lily has a bit of a guilty secret to reveal to Declan, knowing that she is partly responsible for some of the scandal that forced him out of town. As they battle over the property, Lily soon finds herself drawn to the dark Declan, who hasn’t quite shed the wild side. Will they pick up where they left off as teenagers and act upon the feelings between them?

Declan has closed his heart to any emotional attachments, but he hasn’t forgotten his beloved Lily. He’s impressed by her success and has to admire her plans for the future; however, a part of him wants to exact some revenge, as she is part of the town he grew to hate. Even as he toys with Lily and draws her back into his life, the old chemistry between them rises hot and furious. Can they resist the temptation that has roared back?

Jennifer Lewis has crafted an intriguing tale with BLACK SHEEP BILLIONAIRE that will keep you glued to the pages as you wonder just how long it will take Declan and Lily before they give in to their passion.
