Jewel Thief — Claire Thompson

Julia sees the perfect opportunity for a jewel heist when she attends a party at the home of Benjamin Payton, one of the most eligible bachelors in Westchester County. Slated to be out of town during the break in, his unexpected return puts Julia in a dangerous predicament. Entranced by the lovely jewel thief, Benjamin offers her a choice-be handed over to the authorities and face certain prison time, or submit sexually to him for one week. Julia sees no way out-she must agree to his terms in return for his silence. What she doesn't count on is a crash course in erotic submission and BDSM. Bound and whipped, chained and used, Julia comes face to face with unexplored submissive yearnings. The man who begins as her captor and tormentor evolves into something much more as the two of them discover secrets about themselves that will either tear them apart or forge something unexpected and powerful between them.
