In today’s teaser scene, there was a bit of an emergency which led to news of their involvement hitting JockGossip.
Shea rubbed his face. “Given Kate’s job title, I can probably guess. The news hit the gossip sites?”
“Yeah.”
“Damn it! This is exactly what I was afraid of, Dom!”
“What the fuck was I supposed to do?” Dom argued. “Just leave you there to fend for yourself?”
“Well, yeah,” Shea said. “It’s what anyone else would have done.”
Dom gaped at him. “Please tell me you’re joking.”
“I’m not.”
Dom stared, trying to wrap his brain around what Shea was saying. “Are your other clients really that shitty and heartless?”
“No. For the most part they were perfectly nice people. They just had lives and careers that could be ruined if it got out they were hiring someone for sex.”
“Yeah, I get that part,” Dom snapped. “Believe me.”
Because fuck, he certainly didn’t want people getting wind of that. Not that he thought they’d done anything to be ashamed of, but it made his skin crawl to imagine people discussing his personal life that way.
Judging him.
Dom knew exactly how they’d react. How unhappy management would be. How much his coach, Michael Gilbert would blow his top.
Dom didn’t want to deal with any of that.
But when it came down to right and wrong, it was wrong to treat anyone so disposably.
Dom looked Shea in the eye. “I will never deny that I’m an asshole who looks out for my own best interest but there’s a line I won’t cross and if I could make the decision I made last night all over again, I’d do the exact same thing.”
The Blame Game will release on August 30th so now is the perfect time to pre-order it!
