About this ebook
Gable Powers had loved keeping me off-balance from the moment we met—dirty words whispered in my ear that made me tremble, a spectacular tattooed body that had my own craving his, a secret revealed that had only made me love him more. Even his proposal had taken me by surprise when he got down on one knee in the shower. But now it was my turn to shock him at midnight on New Year’s Eve in Vegas, and it was going to be awesome!

A Powers Play (The Powers That Be, Book 1.5) - Harper Bentley
Dear Reader,
First of all, thank you for buying A Powers Play (The Powers That Be, Book 1.5) to take a peek into Scout and Gable’s life together!
Secondly, I greatly appreciate your purchase because by buying this book, you’re supporting The Fisher Center for Alzheimer’s Research Foundation. Dementia and Alzheimer’s are brutal diseases. I watched my very brilliant mom go from knowing everything in the whole, wide world—okay, that’s an exaggeration, but believe me, she was smart—to not even knowing her own name. It was devastating to my entire family watching her grow progressively worse in such a short time, and the heartbreak of losing her in April of 2017 to this debilitating disease will be with us forever.
We love and miss you, Mom. Tu me manques…

About the Author
Chapter 1 Gable (The Powers That Be, Book 1)
Chapter 1
Holy wow,
I muttered, watching the ring girl walking around, well, the ring. She was the fourth one I’d observed, and each of them looked as if they’d been sprouted from the same ultra-gorgeous-kickass-look-at-me-and-my-perfect-body-genetically-altered strand of DNA that may very well have been created by a mad scientist—with a penchant for hot chicks—in a supermodel laboratory that was probably hidden somewhere underground in Area 51.
What?
Gable asked, looking down at me as I stared at the teeny-tiny-bikini-laden woman.
I pointed toward her and he followed my finger before looking back at me. It’s like Monica Belucci and Brigitte Bardot had a baby then the sexiest parts of them were harvested and glued together to make the perfect woman. Then she was upgraded and cloned.
Gable chuckled, leaning down and kissing the side of my head. Baby, they’ve got nothing on you.
I huffed out a laugh because that was the dumbest statement ever. They’re beautiful,
I mumbled in awe.
He looked back at the girl and made an Ehh
face. Then putting an arm behind me, resting it on my seat back, he curled his hand around my shoulder and tugged me closer, his mouth at my ear and remarked, "Babe. You are the hottest chick here. Fuck, you’re the hottest chick within a twenty-five-mile radius of here." He kissed the side of my head again and pulled back.
I cut my eyes up at him. "Oh, so there’s a hotter chick twenty-six miles away? I see how it is," I teased.
He snorted. "Nope. Not even twenty-six-thousand miles away."
Since that’s farther than the earth is all the way around, you’re including outer space now. I’ll take it!
I giggled
