Él se tomó otro vaso. "Todos tienen sus demonios que necesitan ser alimentados de vez en cuando". De repente, agarró la parte trasera de mi cuello y me atrajo hacia él. Lo miré, lista para preguntarle qué estaba haciendo, cuando sus labios se presionaron contra los míos y nos fusionamos en un profundo beso. Sus labios contra los míos eran suaves y gentiles, pero no cedían en pasión. Sin darme cuenta, abrí mi boca. Leyó mi intención y suavemente deslizó su lengua entre mis labios. - Una periodista de investigación con un fuerte sentido de la justicia y la rebelión.

Eden Rowe, 21, is beautiful, sweet, naive, and the only child of a former police officer. Oliver Calloway, 24, is handsome, reckless, scandalous, and the only son of the wealthiest family in New York. Eden has been catering to her father's needs since he lost his job and became an abusive alcoholic. She begins working as a maid at the Calloway mansion, where she meets Oliver. Oliver is the kind of guy who gives every girl butterflies and makes them go weak in the knee. He's a daredevil, rebellious, and avoids responsibilities, spending every night with a different girl in his bed. But he soon realizes that all of that is about to change when he gets Eden pregnant and his father forces him to marry her. After Oliver mistreats Eden on their wedding night, she runs away and disappears without a trace. Six years later, an unexpected reunion brings them face-to-face once more. Neither of them is the same person they once were. Oliver, now the CEO of his family's business, is cold, ruthless, and one of the richest men in America. Eden, on the other hand, is a successful businesswoman engaged to Oliver's biggest business rival. Oliver wants Eden and his child back, mostly to satisfy his ego. Eden wants nothing to do with him. But Oliver will stop at nothing to claim what he believes is rightfully his, even if it means using their son as leverage. It's a dangerous game of control where desire becomes obsession, sparks reignite, and deceit and vengeance threaten to destroy them both. Perhaps love is the only thing that can break them free from the prison of their own making, or perhaps love is a curse that will forever damn them.

He is a 24 year old heir to his father's company. She is a 28 year old lady, fired from her last job for burning the CEO with hot tea. A fiery one she is, not until she meets a man, who is just intent on breaking her.

“No one touches what is mine and gets to live,” he replies firmly, sending a cold shiver down my spine. “Alessandro, I am not yours. I am not anyone’s property,” I argue. He laughs softly. “Okay,” he says casually, as if what I said doesn't matter. “I mean it; I will never be yours—not your property, not your plaything, and certainly not your mistress,” I've already made it clear that I won't be his mistress; I don’t know why he can’t seem to accept that. His jaw tightens, then he scoffs. “He threatened you, he touched you,” he says, his eyes narrowing. “It really didn’t matter if the device was his or not; he knew what was coming for him.” In search of her missing father, Renée, a 24 year old boudoir photographer, moves to a new country and makes a deal with the FBI.

Will his world accept a woman like her? It has been a rule for as long as he can remember that certain races can't mix, at least not from where he stands. Plus, he is a married man. Everything about her is forbidden.
