Sugar Baby: A Novel

By Vera Kurian

In this sexy suspense novel from the author of a New York Times Best Thriller Never Saw Me Coming, a young woman falls into a dangerous world of wealth and power after her sugar daddy is murdered and she becomes the prime suspect

For twenty-two-year-old chronically ill Sydney Baxter, debt is the true killer. Her trendy hostess job doesn't come close to making a dent, which is why she got into the sugar baby business.

Sydney follows a clear set of rules and has a close circle of friends to stay safe. And thanks to her handful of regulars, all handsome, rich men in the DC social scene, Sydney has hope for something more.

Then she's invited to an exclusive club where everything is on the table. The only question is . . . how much are you willing to pay? Enticed by the opportunity, Sydney steps even further into the world of wealth and power, where the players tolerate almost anything except indiscretion.

When a brutal murder happens at the club, and the victim is one of Sydney's regulars, she becomes the top suspect. It has to be a cruel mistake, but then Sydney starts getting mysterious and incriminating texts, taunting her about things that no one should know.

With the help of a well-connected client, Sydney races against the clock to discover who set her up and why, before she becomes the next scandalous casualty. As the danger intensifies, her life--and her heart--could be the price she pays.
