Sugar Daddy Season

?????????? ??????? | ?????? ??? ???? ?????? When Mara Santiago is laid off from work and dumped by her boyfriend, she moves in with her parents. Struggling to find another job as a ballerina, she begins go-go dancing at Penthouse---a high-end nightclub in San Francisco where her brother Lucas bartends. He warns that underneath the glitz and glam is a dangerous world she should stay away from, but Penthouse pays well, and Mara is determined to get back on her feet. One night, an older gentleman tips her handsomely. At first, it seems like a one-time thing, but his generous tips continue. Curious, she asks him why. After all, she's a go-go dancer, not a stripper. He confesses he wanted to do something kind. However, it's not the only reason. Enzo Esposito is looking for a "companion." If Mara agrees to accompany him to important work events and dinners, he'll pay her a thousand dollars each time: no strings attached or hanky panky. The offer is too tempting. So, Mara agrees. But nothing is ever that simple---especially regarding to whom she entrusts her heart. Not when a murderer is on the loose with sights possibly set on her. ??? ??????? #69, #46 ??? #33
