He’s so cold and distant. A block of ice wrapped inside a devastatingly handsome exterior. I have enough sunshine to warm us both… if only he’d let me in. Working as Mr. Jackson’s PA is not for the faint of heart. Tolerable on a good day, a cold-hearted S.O.B. for the rest, he’s every employee’s worst nightmare. It’s a wonder to everyone that I’ve managed to stay with him for three years. I question my sanity myself sometimes. There is something in Liam Jackson that keeps me coming back. Something that sets my heart… and body on fire. Crushing on my unobtainable boss, however, is an exercise in futility. Mr. Jackson’s walls are so high it would take a certified climber to scale them. So, when I get a call saying my grandma needs help for a month, I jump at the chance to leave, hoping that the adage, “out of sight, out of mind” rings true. Unfortunately for me, it doesn’t and to top it off, there is something strange going on when I return. There is warmth underneath the coldness of Mr. Jackson. A spark that gives me hope, drawing me back in. I’ll break through his defenses one smile at a time.
I’ve always chased after the bad boy. My taste for the dark side has nearly killed me once. And now I am knocking on death’s door again, only this time the darkness stares back at me with the most gorgeous eyes. All three of them. Mafia underlords. Criminals. Kings of pleasure and keepers of shattered souls. And the worst part is, they know my name, the taste of me, the feel of my curves beneath their heated touches. There’s no escaping their decadent world of crime and sin. Now that I know their darkest secret they will hunt me, punish me. They promise I’ll like it and my biggest fear is the truth behind their words. Yet I still run. I don’t know why I fight. The shadowed underworld always wins. Question is, will I thrive in the darkness or will they kill me softly under their dark reign?
