About ‘Wicked Envy’ by Sawyer Bennett:

The best of friends.
Two men. One woman.
A sinful playground called The Wicked Horse.

Entrepreneur turned millionaire, Dane Hawthorne, has been known to get his kicks at The Wicked Horse Vegas, and he has no shortage of beautiful women waiting for a shot at him. Driven to succeed, no matter if he’s in the boardroom or the bedroom, Dane never backs down from a challenge.

Avril Carrigan isn’t the type of woman to take risks in her personal life but after a broken heart and too much liquid courage, Avril decides to best way to get over one man, is to get under another. Looking to experience all the debauchery she’s heard about from her best friend and business partner, Dane, she requests one thing of him—take her to The Wicked Horse.

The request seems simple. One friend helping another in her time of need. But now that they’ve crossed the threshold, things aren’t as easy as they once seemed. Not only is Dane looking at Avril in a new light, but so is their other business partner and best friend, Andrew Collings. As Dane’s envy blooms, he wonders if he made the right decision when he agreed to show Avril his wicked world.

What happens when the lines of friendship are blurred and boundaries are crossed? Will their relationships survive or will jealousy tear them all apart?

‘Wicked Envy’ by Sawyer Bennett exclusive excerpt:

“Want to grab some dinner tonight?” I ask, and his head pops up. “I bet Avril is still here working. Let’s go grab some sushi.”

“Avril’s gone,” Andrew says and looks back down to the table to grab a small binder that he slips in his backpack. After he zips it up, he looks back to me and shocks me down to my bones. “She’s going back to The Wicked Horse tonight.”

“What?” My voice comes out slightly high-pitched from surprise at that statement.

Slinging his backpack over his shoulder and then shoving that hand into a jean pocket, he gives me a look that’s almost accusing. “You apparently created a monster.”

“I created a monster?”

“Well, the club created a monster,” Andrew mutters. “She went Friday, loved it so much that she went back Saturday. And she shot me a text a little bit ago to tell me she was going again tonight.”

“What the fuck?” I murmur as my gaze drifts off to the Vegas skyline lit up with a million sparkles.

“She invited me to go,” Andrew says, and my head snaps back to him.

“As in to be… with her at the club?” I ask for clarification. While I personally know that both Avril and Andrew had a good time Friday night, I never would have taken either one as repeat visitors. And while I know the way they stared at each other while they were fucking forged some type of new bond, I didn’t think it would extend any further.

Andrew shakes his head. “No, not like that. Just as friends, and to do our own thing.”

“Jesus,” I say in disbelief as I sink down into the closest chair to me. I stare blankly across the table.

“I’m worried about her,” Andrew says, and he appears in my line of sight by taking the chair opposite me.

“Why?” I ask hesitantly.

I figure that’s what they were talking about yesterday morning in his office because there was a seriously heavy vibe in the air when I opened the door. I knew that shared experience would have changed something, and I’ve been worried about it. I’ve also been replaying in my mind how fucking sexy it was watching them that night, and I know something’s changed within me, too.

I just don’t know what exactly.

“Is that club dangerous?” Andrew asks, refusing to answer my question.

I shake my head. “Not at all. Completely safe. Good security. There’s never been a problem to my knowledge.”

“I don’t like it,” Andrew says softly.

“Don’t like what?” I push at him. “The club itself or the fact you and Avril shared something intimate and it’s messing with your mind?”

His eyes narrow on me, as there’s enough confidence in my statement that I know what I’m talking about. “How do you know what we shared was intimate?”

“I was there… in a smaller private club. I saw you two on a video feed.”

“Fuck,” Andrew mutters as his gaze drops from mine. His embarrassment couldn’t be any clearer. “This is so fucking complicated.”

“How is Avril?” I ask. I can see Andrew’s bothered, but I want to know about Avril, since she’s the one I’ve always stepped up to the plate to protect as a woman. I don’t see her as lesser or weaker, but I do have an inherent need to make sure she’s looked after.

Always have for as long as I can remember.

Andrew’s gaze lifts back up to meet mine. His voice is flat. “She’s completely in love with that place. Went on about how liberating it was, and she found a new power or something like that. But I think she’s just wanting to even the score with Jamie.”

“She’s not like that,” I assert.

Andrew sighs. “Yeah… I know. It’s just easier to believe that rather than accept that she’s turned into a sex kitten or something overnight.”

And I see it.

Clear as day on his face.

The door has been cracked open, and Andrew is now looking at Avril in a completely different light. He wants her.

“Did you know that you and Avril both came at the same time Friday night?” I ask, and it gets the intended reaction I was driving for. His body jolts as his eyes narrow and his teeth grind together.

“Goddamn it, Dane,” Andrew growls. “You watched the entire thing? I thought you just meant you’d seen us walking through the club or something.”

I lean forward and tell my best friend the truth so he quits hiding from it and can deal with it. “I watched the two of you fuck other people while staring across that room at each other, and I did it while some chick was sucking my cock. I fucking blew my load right along with you two.”

And shit… just saying those words causes my dick to start to swell, because it was one of the hottest things I’d ever seen in my life.

“You were turned on by what you were watching,” I tell him softly but assuredly.

He stares back at me unblinkingly, but his jawline is tight with tension.

“I was turned on, too. You’d have to be dead not to be aroused by it.”
