Sam and Vera Ward got married decades ago and haven’t slept together since. With little desire to satiate Sam’s sexual appetite, Vera agrees to a certain tradition at the start of every school year. Sam is allowed to sleep with one woman of his choosing, with two ground rules: she must be a student at the college, and the affair cannot last beyond a year. This year, their target is a mysterious young woman named Jade, who, unbeknownst to the Wards, is a hand grenade poised to destroy everything they’ve carefully built.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlluring and sharp as a tack, Jade breaks all their rules. With a plan of her own, she holds Sam in the palm of her hand and grips Vera in a dance of obsession and desire. What unfolds is not a romance but a reckoning, where every touch conceals a move, and every secret becomes a weapon, spiraling into an explosive ending that will leave Vera, Jade, and Sam completely undone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJaded\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eis an electric, provocative novel about power, the abuse of and submission to it, where each character is forced to confront the messy web of complicity, lies, and lust in which they have unwittingly entangled themselves.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"navigation___AOPVB\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Golden Hour Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":53473642807596,"sku":"9781668217689","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0793\/4623\/7740\/files\/jaded.jpg?v=1785260763","url":"https:\/\/goldenhourbookstore.com\/products\/jaded-a-novel-by-anne-meredith-1-12-27","provider":"Golden Hour Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
