Betrayal (Infidelity Book 1) Kindle Edition

by Aleatha Romig (Author), Book Covers By Design (Illustrator), Lisa Aurello (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 9,116 ratings
One week. No future. No past. No more.

Alexandria Collins has one week to live carefree—no ghosts of her past or pressures of her future haunting her. Reinventing herself as "Charli," she is knocked off her feet by a sexy, mysterious man who brings her pleasure like she never imagined. With her heart at stake, she forgets that decisions made in the dark of night reappear in the bright light of day.

"Some of my tastes are unique. They aren’t for everyone. I understand that.” Lennox "Nox" Demetri is wealthy, confident, and decisive--he knows what he wants. From the first time he sees Charli at an exclusive resort, he knows he wants her. Although he is usually the one to make the rules, together they agree on one: One week. No more.

When betrayal comes from those closest to Alexandria, she must decide how far she is willing to go to survive. Choices are not always easy, especially when they involve the heart, body, and soul. After all, Infidelity is a business, and some rules are meant to be broken.

"Is it really cheating if you're doing it to yourself?"

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Aleatha Romig comes a sexy, new dominant hero who knows what he wants, and a strong-willed heroine who has plans of her own. With classic Aleatha Romig twists, turns, deceptions, and devotions, this new epic contemporary romance will have readers swooning one minute and screaming the next.

Have you been Aleatha'd?

BETRAYAL is a full-length novel and the first of five in the INFIDELITY series. This series isn't about cheating.

    So so glad the head f@#k was not to intense.
    Nox and Alex had a great story. The clues along the way unfold slowly and had me guessing wrong (of course otherwise where is the fun). The characters are strong and well built, both the good and the bad.
    It leaves you hanging for more (Again, of course it would this is Aleatha Romig we are talking about).
    I enjoy the chemistry, i enjoyed the drama and i cared for the characters in the book.
    I felt Alex was strong and worthy she was not a push over and i think i kind of thought for that she was badass.
    Nox was sweet, a little intimidating and whole lot mysterious but at the same time you trusted him. I never felt that he was going to pull the rug from under me.
    It is well written and worded as expected and a great story that i cant wait for the next one.

    I can just feel the twists and turns developing within this tale. I look forward to the development and unraveling. I am starting to warm to the characters and am curious about Charli/Alex - what is really in her past? Nox is also a character to wonder about. Looks like a good story to become immersed in.

    Good start to another series by Aleatha Romig.

    This book started off with a little back and though between present and past. A relationship that was just for a week. A hint of a past that was dark. Then a strong and determined woman appears. Can’t wait for the next part.
    Narration was awesome too.

    Just finished it - WoW! I love Aleatha's books and I found this one a bit slow in the beginning because I wanted more to happen. But knowing her writing so well I knew it was all part of a plan and I would be taken on a ride with twists and turns galore. I certainly didn't foresee how they would reconnect but once I got a hint, this is going to be a wild ride! January is too far!

    Ho acquistato questo libro per caso,incuriosita dai teasers che l'autrice postava sulla sua pagina e dal titolo-BETRAYAL(TRADIMENTO).Ho cominciato a leggerlo aspettandomi l'ennesima storia d'amore romantica infarcita di scene di sesso,e invece mi sono trovata davanti un romanzo da cui non riuscivo a staccarmi.I personaggi sono ben delineati anche se sono avvolti da un alone di mistero fino alla fine.La stessa protagonista ha tre nomi:Alexandria/Alex/Charli che corrispondono a diverse sfumature della sua personalità.

    Alexandria Collins è una ragazza di 23 anni,bellissima e appartenente a una delle più antiche e prestigiose famiglie di Savannah:I Montague.Suo padre è morto quando era molto piccola e sua madre si è risposata con Alton,uomo spietato e senza cuore,assetato di potere e con una spiccata tendenza al comando.Alexandria non ha un buon ricordo della sua infanzia trascorsa tra le asfissianti mura del Montague Manor.La recensione continua sul blog Harem's Book

    Reviewed in Brazil on 30 March 2021
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I'm a mixture of mad for taking me so long to start this author (I have so much of her work to catch up) and exhilarated for getting to know her work, which is unbeliavably flawless.

    The plot was enticing and addictive, the writing was spetacular and the characters were all consuming, each in their own way. I'm well aware that I'm splurging on big words and compliments, yet it doesn't feel like enough.

    The whole story was magnetic, and the back and forth of time only added to the appeal.
    Whenever "I was" at Montague Manor, I caught myself being wary, cautious, edgy, even if there wasn't a conflict going on at the time, but I could feel there was something shady lurking behind the scenes and that was enough to keep me on my toes.

    But in Del Mar, I was all gooey, sucking up in the sexiness that was Nox and Charli.
    They were explosive together, their connection was enthralling and their chemistry was scorching hot. And it wasn't just physical. Their feelings grew deeper than that, in an understanding that didn't require explanations.
    They were emotionally and mentally connected, there was respect and trust between them, even if their time was so short. It was a dichotomy: time was of the essence because they needed more from one another, but it was also unecessary because it didn't take long for them to be important for each other.

    I'm totally hooked in this series and I'm starving for more.

    Welp we have all be Aleathed Again! Its a great start to an exciting series! Now I'm usually one that does not like to read a book that is part of a series until I have all the books and can dive in and read them all together. (yep I do buy books and let them just set right on my Kindle shelf waiting for the entire series) I do get the series thing though, I know a lot of people do not really like it they just want the books to be written released and done but that's not the way it is done today folks some of these books would be sooo long if they did it in one setting and I also believe it allows the writer time to reflect with the storyline and the characters and make changes as they continue with the series and we get a much better series of books! I truly believe in the standalone books just as I do the series they are all good and have reasons to be what they are! And being that this is queen bee Aleatha Romig of the "Consequence Series" that I truly Adored and LOVED so much I dove right in and read it soon after I one clicked it after learning it was released a day early, I figured that was a sign to get it and read it and I am so glad I did! Now do I wish I had books 2,3,4 and 5 absolutely but hey this is real life and these are fictional characters and I know she will not let us down with what she decides to give us with this Infidelity Series!

    So you have read the Burb written and its a good one Im try not to spoil much but just give what and why i loved the book!

    I love Alex/Charli, Alexandria I feel sorry for and I hope she can come out of her shell and be just that "Alexandria or Alex for short" but for now with all these secrets she has having Charli in her corner I think is a very good thing! Oh Nox I surely do love him he is hot and sweet and attentive and was totally taken by Charli but by the end of this book the rules have been changed and I know sweet endearing Nox is about to be super Dominate Nox and I think I will love that Nox just as well and maybe even better! I enjoyed the back and forth in time (its just a few months but also has flashbacks to her younger days even with her deceased father) but it gave this book a different depth to it and helped me as a reader to quickly get to know all the characters in a smooth flowing way! Alexandria/Alex is from an uber rich family and was allowed to go away for college to see the world leaving behind her family and some terrible friends and an old boyfriend that truly was never a boyfriend but a boy that wasnt really a good friend either as it seems and he has just put himself right in the midst of her family under her nose he is in deep and we dont know why...she left so she didn't have to be told how to live, dress, eat, wear her hair, go to bed, sit straight you get the drift huh? So off to College she went and never looked back, she makes a wonderful best friend with Chelsea and after the four years of college they decide take a week off, a last little trip together as Alex is moving to New York and Chelsea is staying in California to find a job she didn't come from money but she has been a little spoiled by Alex but seems to be a true and dear friend and gets Alex to come out from under the strangling influence of her family which is really only her mother and a stepfather whom she hates and at the end of the book I don't care for either of them her mom is drinking herself into submission to a very very bad man that has taken control of her life and money and has also been in charge of Alexandria in what ways Im not sure. We do not know the complete extent to what all this man has done to her but what little we do know it is not good! But when these two get on this vacation Chelsea is telling Alex she has worked as hard as she could and it's her time to unwind and let go she deserves it before she has to jump into law school, she is going to Columbia she wants her to enjoy life pretend she is someone else be free be like her Chelsea the wild child of the two of them and Alex decides it's a good idea and she is going to become Charli (short for Charles, yes her dads name is one in a long list of of her legal names) for the week and out by the pool she meets Nox a very good looking man that she has a connection with right away, next thing ya know it's a dinner and rules are set and hard limits are asked of course Charli doesn't even know exactly what this means but they decide no questions about each other they are just Charli and Nox and they are only going to have this one week together and walk away and boy do they have a HOT week together but is it just a week together heck no both of them have emotions riding high but they choose not to speak them and to walk away! Aleatha this is some of your hottest sexiest writing scenes yet that car and bathroom scene is HOT as is the sexy bathtub scene! It's a wonderful blissful week and Charli doesn't want it to end but it does and they go off to live their lives but Nox tells her on the last day that he did break one rule but she doesn't know what that rule is until on the plane going back to California and Chelsea figures it out and we do not realize how great it is that he breaks this rule until the very last page of the book. Alex has been summoned home and has all of the sudden been given ultimatums by her family, she runs and then makes a decision that's going to change her entire life I never saw it coming not at all, it truly surprised the crapola out of me but it's going to be really GREAT especially when Nox finds out what she has done after 6 weeks of not even a word from her and he cannot stop thinking of her he wants her and yet he cannot have her then he learns a BIG secret and he is mad as fire and now the rules have changed just how they have changed well we have to wait until January 19, 2016 to find out!

    If you haven't read any of Aleatha Romig's other books you've got to try them The Consequence Series is her very first to be published but you would never know that, it's a dark read but a beautiful cannot put it down till you are done series and then she has Tales from the Dark Side "Insidious" it's a wonderful book, a standalone and it will keep your head spinning from the tale that is weaved and told! I however cannot wait to read the next Book "Cunning" in this Infidelity Series! Get to it Aleatha we are desperately waiting for more Charli or will it be Alex and as for Nox as in Lennox Demetri, its Mr Demetri! :)

    This book is a first from this author but it won't be the last. This book is beautifully written. I enjoyed her style of writing very much, as well as the storyline and the characters. Both the plot and characters are well developed. I couldn't put the book down, it held a lot of intrigue and i wanted to find out what was going to transpire between the main characters. Their chemistry was hot and the male had a dominant streak in him. The sex scenes were too few but the ones that were there hot!! Now I need to get the next book of the series do i can live vicariously through these characters. Will definitely be reading more from this author!!
