Sinopse

What happens when the acclaimed international TV crime drama, Blue Bloods, inspires a story?
 
It brings to life Madam X, book three in the Illicit Things series.
 
 
 
Who knew being a madam could spell the end of your life…
 
After many successful years in New York, running the company her grandmother started and her mother took over, Josephine Pompadour has lived up to her inherited title of Madam X for five decades.
 
But when judge Bartholomew “Bartie” Winthrop murders two of Josephine’s girls, and dies from a heart attack in the midst of a passionate embrace with one of them, those in power start getting nervous, praying their secret fetishes won’t be exposed due to his carelessness. Then their world starts to splinter, shattering shard by shard, and there’s only one person they want to make responsible.
 
Even from behind bars, Josephine won’t go down without a fight. She has a secret weapon on the outside, one who is more than willing to make the bastards pay for what they’re doing to her, all of them, especially Police Commissioner Ryan and his family.
 
The dirty secretive underworld of New York’s brothels is crumbling, and all of the high-powered men of the city are going to be taken down in a blaze of delicious vengeful glory.

    After Angie Robertson's new husband disappears with over $200,000 in wedding gifts and a brand new 911 Porsche convertible, her gangster father makes it his mission to seek retribution. Alongside him is Angie's brother and heir to the Robertson empire, Sebastian, who, like his father, is eager to enact a swift revenge. 
    Meanwhile, the missing groom and his team of con artists speed along the southwestern coast, searching for the next town and rich, lonely girl they could scam out of a couple hundred grand.

    At the Flower House, you’re as likely to find a killer as a chrysanthemum. 
     
    As Aerieville, Tennessee’s Flower House finally gains in popularity, Sierra Ravenswood finds herself feeling ready for new challenges. Luckily, the shop has grabbed the attention of the mayor’s daughter, and bride-to-be, Marissa Lakely.  
     
    Sierra is thrilled, and nervous, to land her most important job yet: providing flowers for the biggest wedding Aerieville has ever seen. 
     
    Fortunately, Marissa bucks all stereotypes and is far from a bridezilla—but her wedding planner, Taz Banyan, has apparently taken on the role for himself. But Taz aside, everything seems to be under control … until Sierra makes a startling  
    discovery in the great room: the wedding planner, lying in a heap at the bottom of the stairs. He survives only long enough to mutter: “It was the snake.” As Granny Mae would say, seeing a snake is rarely a good sign, and this was clearly no exception. 
     
    With the town on edge and the wedding up in the air, Sierra refuses to stop asking questions in her determination to put an end to this latest danger—so both Aerieville and the Flower House can flourish once more.
