Whatever he tells you to do… you do.” One year. No future. And a past that refuses to stay buried. Lennox “Nox” Demetri broke his own rules the moment he made the deal. Maybe it wasn’t with the devil himself—but that doesn’t mean hell isn’t collecting its due. Then there’s Charli. What started as one week of forbidden escape became something far more dangerous. Addictive. Possessive. All-consuming. Alex “Charli” Collins never expected to crave a man like Nox—or surrender to the pleasure he offered so easily. That was before she learned his last name. Before secrets surfaced. Before betrayal changed everything. Before fantasy and reality collided hard enough to destroy them both. Now the rules are different. Nox has his rules. Alex has her own. And neither is prepared for the consequences when obsession turns personal. In a world of wealth, deception, power, and temptation, love may be the most dangerous game of all. Have you been Aleatha’d? From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Aleatha Romig comes a steamy wealth and power romance filled with obsession, betrayal, shocking twists, and an irresistible dominant hero readers will never forget. CUNNING is a full-length novel, 360 pages, and the second of five books following Nox and Charli in the INFIDELITY series. Infidelity - it isn't what you think. Review: A PEARL OF A READ! - Reviewed by Sharon Thérèse Nuttall 4.5 Cunning Stars The second instalment in the Infidelity Series is a wild pearl which the author has cultured to perfection. Betrayal truly left me bereft and even though waiting for the sequels can be the bane of many readers, fortunately this is not the case in this one. Moreover, the changes in Cunning are carefully mapped out making one sit back and think what on earth is going to happen next. Adoring the male protagonist in Betrayal; how on earth I could have changed my tune regarding him in this read was for me, an excellent ploy on the Ms Romig’s part. I have to say that I would have gladly strangled her for cunningly changing my opinion. Pun not intended! The carrot was masterfully dangled, kept me on tenterhooks and frustrated the pants off this reader who isn’t easily swayed in scenarios such as is the main characters’ pasts. I need reason, emotion and logic. And there is no doubt whatsoever that this follow-up delivers. My heart twisted for Charli - Alexandria Collins. Her southern charisma shines brightly and I couldn't but help fall head over heels for her. Well-bred, her strong-will flourished by being schooled in the life of hard knocks. Nevertheless, her vulnerability towards family’s circumstances would dominate her decisions and complicate matters no end for her. What she did I never once criticised her for as she was caught between a rock and a hard place. When she signed on the dotted-line, never was she or I prepared to see how far coincidences would play its cruel hand in her story. Not knowing what she was up against was not only deceiving, but the injustice she had to suffer by all, I found quite pathetic. "Miss Collins, your opportunity to negotiate has passed. It's time for our reunion. I paid handsomely for it." Who knocked me over with a feather was Lennox Demetri! Speaking out loud now; “Shame on you Nox! You did the unheard of in my book. You cheated. Your play was unjust; you didn't give her a chance. It was far too easy for you to discover the truths about the woman who held your heart in her hands. The woman who had no name, the woman who was your silent obsession.” Okay… he’s the bee’s knees and seeps the Alpha male drop your panties like now girlies! But is this really him showing his true colours? He has the means to be one step ahead of her, takes advantage of this and I damn well hated him for it. This is a new concept in him as you will see when you get to know how he ticks. Power rules and he has it ten-fold. I can honestly say that I would have gladly bashed him on his head with my Kindle. Yet, his thoughts showed me that beneath that hard exterior he blatantly flaunts, there is much more be discovered. "I'm a selfish bastard. I wanted you. I took the opportunity, and now you know the truth. This is real. You're mine because I want you, not because I bought you." I loved the depth of this story. Underhanded political power struggles, deceptions and twist and turns in every unimaginable corner make this read an unputdownable one. I loved to hate most of the secondary characters and more important as a European reader, the ins and outs of what goes on inside of the minds of certain persons whom presumably have our fate in their hands regarding certain issues, was quite outstanding. One teeny-weeny hiccup in this story for me was Adelaide's story. I know her selfishness was relevant to the flow of the storyline but I just couldn't connect to her whingy ways. She wasn't the damsel in distress here. Quite bluntly, my consideration for her putting herself before her daughter's well-being irritated me beyond my comprehension. Well done to the author here. You managed to bring out the worst in me! "Very few of my life's decisions had been left to me. I was making one." A note for the reader. This series is not about cheating; third parties do not exist. This is simply a collision course taking you on a helter-skelter ride amidst a tremendously heart-rending story. The dialogue is sublime in all accepts; notwithstanding, the scorching hot bedroom banter is guaranteed so get your fan ready for them! We will only know what happens next by reading Deception in May. Five books in all…goodness me, the wait is going to be excruciatingly painful. Bravo to you Ms Romig for a flawless story! Review: JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!!! - This wonderful series continues with this 2nd book as it picks up right where the first book ended. The best thing is that all the books are out so you can read them one after another and don't have to wait for each one to be released! Talk about angst!!! Nox is angry at Charli for not asking him for help and signing up with Infidelity. She is relieved and so glad it's him, but they have a lot of issues to work out. Sex is not one of those issues, however! It is still as hot and off the charts as it was in Del Mar! But they still have a lot of secrets between them. His wife, her family, her inheritance, why she signed up for Infidelity. As they work through some of these kinks, they find out that they just enjoy talking and spending time together, as well as the amazing sexual chemistry they share. Their feelings for each other are growing more complex. We also get backstory of Charli's mother, the history of her marriages to Charli's father and then to Alton. The manipulations and lies that led up to the present. We still don't have the full story, just pieces coming together that will all come together by the end of this series. That is how Aleatha writes. This story just keeps getting better and better and keeps you engrossed and ready to leap into the next book without a life preserver!

Go, jumpl ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can't take not knowing!!!!!!!! *by K***S on February 2, 2016* *Sigh* Why did I do this to myself? Because, I knew this series was going to be phenomenal. I don't know where to start with this book. The twists and turns are epic. Just when answers are revealed more questions pop up in their place. The characters are complex and likeable. I know Charli and Nox will get their HEA, but what will it take? Too much is happening, too many lies, too many devils, and too much drama. But I loved every moment. Between working, life and anxiety it took me 3 days to finish the last 40 minutes of this book. I didn't want to face the cliffhanger. But it turned out, it wasn't that bad... No it was, I'm just trying to talk myself into patience. Until May... 4 Aleatha'd Stars -Natasha ...The plot thickens. No seriously, this is getting so thick. There are so many twists. I just want Charli and Nox to win, but there seem to be so many factors working against them. They each have their own backstories that are full of deception and drama. Nothing is easy between the 2 of them, but that's what will make it worth it in the end. 4 stars -Jasmine --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/110170145-cunning-a-wealth-and-power-steamy-romance-infidelity-book-2](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/110170145-cunning-a-wealth-and-power-steamy-romance-infidelity-book-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-10*
