In Cold Blood Chapter 1 Summary Novels & Stories

Kent Matthews only wanted two things when he got hired as a secretary: a stable paycheck and a drama-free life. What did he got instead? Spencer Johnson — his new boss who’s hot, arrogant, and so ruthlessly demanding that Kent swears he might actually be Satan in a suit. Surviving Spencer’s mood swings is already a full-time job… until Kent makes the world’s biggest mistake: swiping right on a dating app. One ding later, and guess who his “perfect match” turns out to be? Yep. Mr. Ruthless himself. Now Spencer has a new way of tormenting him. He’ll bark orders at the office by day, then slide into Kent’s DMs on random times with one thing on his mind: steamy, no-strings-attached meetups that leave Kent breathless and dangerously addicted.

What started as a swipe has turned into a sizzling game of push and pull, and if Kent’s not careful, he might just fall for the one man he promised himself he’d never catch feelings for.
