CHAPTER ONE

MERLE JORDAN WAS surrounded by bubbles. White frothy ones filled the deep, wide bath, petite ones fizzed from the oversized champagne bottle sheā€™d just opened, while the fragile glass bubbles of a sleek modern light fixture gleamed above her head. The glimmering orbs delighted her starved senses, bringing absolute bliss.

She opened the stunning glass doors which led to the balcony that stretched the length of the building and ended with a curling staircase that led down to the pool below. A massive moon hung in the sky like the biggest bubble of all, casting a rippling sweep of light across the private bay. Merle lit the candle beside the bath and switched off the pretty light overhead, indulging in the soft, muted glow of the large moon and small flame.

With a disbelieving giggle she wriggled out of her underwear. Sheā€™d barely sampled the champagne but this decadence wasnā€™t something sheā€™d experienced and it was heady. Merle didnā€™t excel at self-care at the best of times and this was beyond beginner level. Sheā€™d graduated to expert in one go. Never before had she been in a bath so big, never had she seen a view so stunning, never had she stood naked and sipped champagne from a slender crystal glass. Never had she stolen time for herself.

The summer air was still warm but she couldnā€™t resist the bubbles of the bath a moment longer. The glistening suds slipped over her like soft strokes of indulgence. Sliding deeper, Merle sipped her drink and breathed in the magnificent surroundings. She couldnā€™t believe she was living in this ā€˜holiday homeā€™. She could bathe like this every night for the next six weeks if she wished.

It wasnā€™t really a holiday home, it was a mega-mansion on Waihekeā€”an island less than an hour from Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand. Known as a playground for the wealthy, this property was a perfect example of the luxury homes hidden here. Incredibly private, it overlooked a beach with boat-only access and was furnished with an overflowing wine cellar, stunning swimming pool and spa. There was also a home gym, a cinema room, and even a single-lane bowling alley. The entire property was beautifully decorated with simple yet luxurious style. Richly coloured timber floors provided warmth and white paintwork offered crisp freshness, while soft-cushioned sofas and artfully placed occasional chairs invited relaxation. The gorgeous glazing of the house meant the entire building could be opened up to invite the outside in, and baskets with verdant plants accentuated that coastal, nature-loving style.

The place was ready for a magazine shoot at a momentā€™s notice, Merle mused. Unusually for her, she liked the dearth of personal items in the decor; it made her feel it was more of a holiday venue and less as if she was encroaching on someoneā€™s private space. Besides, all those personal secrets were waiting to be discovered in the boxes currently filling the triple-car garage. Sheā€™d been contracted to sort and list their contents and prepare them either for storage or destruction.

She couldnā€™t believe that
