Lumaki si Louise na mulat sa panglalalaki ng kaniyang ina na siyang naging dahilan para maghiwalay ang kaniyang mga magulang. Dahil pinili ni Louise na sumama sa kaniyang ama, naranasan niyang apihin ng mapagmataas na pamilya ng kaniyang ama. Wala na halos mapuntahan si Louise, pakiramdam niya kalaban niya ang mundo, lalo na nang mapag-alaman niyang niloloko siya ng kasintahan at matalik na kaibigan. Sa paghahangad niyang makalimot sa lahat, isang gabi ang bumago ng tuluyan sa takbo ng buhay ni Louise ng makatalik niya ang pinakamayaman at kilalang bilyonaryo sa bansa. Ang bilyonaryong ito ay matagal ng naghahangad na magkaroon ng tagapagmana. Ngunit dahil sa isang sekretong napag-alaman ni Louise tungkol sa lalaki ay labis siyang natakot para sa kaligtasan ng kambal na pinagbubuntis niya. Naisipan ni Louise na magtrabaho bilang sekretarya sa kompanya para mabantayan ang bawat galaw ng bilyonaryo at masiguradong hindi sila mahahanap ng kambal. Gayunpaman, ginagawa ng bilyonaryo ang lahat at habang nakikita ni Louise kung gaano ito kapursigido na mahanap ang kambal ay mas lalo rin niyang nakikilala ang tunay na katauhan ng misteryosong bilyonaryo. Ngunit kung kailan pa naging sapat ang dahilan niya para ipakilala ang kambal sa ama ng mga ito ay matutuklasan niya na ang sariling ama ang dahilan sa likod ng panganganib ng buhay ng bilyonaryo at ng kambal. Napagtanto ni Louise kung gaano kagahaman sa pera ang ama at gagawin nito ang lahat kahit mapahamak pa sila ng anak mga niya. Sa puntong ito magbabago ang kagustuhan ni Louise sa buhay — ipagkakatiwala niya ang kaligtasan ng kambal sa bilyonaryo at tutulungan itong pabagsakin ang ama at ang pamilya nitong umapi sa kaniya.

Jake, the guy I used to work with. The guy that I had unspoken tension and chemistry with from the first day we met. I say unspoken because nothing was ever said or done about it at the time. Why? because we were both in relationships. The last time I saw him was over a year ago, and a lot has changed since then, well some things. I was single, he was still taken, and that should be enough to keep me at bay, right? Wrong! One night we meet at the club and everything changes. I become the kind of woman I never thought I was, the kind to go after another woman's man. And he becomes something he never thought he was either, a cheater. It was only supposed to be a one-time thing, but it was like the moment we had a taste, we keep coming back for more. Temptation is a hard thing to fight, and I guess in this case, it is a fight that we both lost.

A cabin by a lake for the summer with barely a soul in sight sounds like the perfect place to disappear to for eight weeks. Just me and my laptop, writing my next bestseller. Away from the city and the drama. My plans soon change on my first day here, all because of a handsome stranger who turns out not to be as much as a stranger as I thought. Sound's complicated, right? I didn't come here to get involved with anyone, the opposite really, but Kyson has a way to get to me easily, one which isn't so easy to fight especially when he is next door for the entire summer. I could resist, I should resist, but it is hard to fight chemistry, lust and connection, all things we seemed to share. I didn't think when I came here my summer would change everything and not all for the best.

He slammed me hard against the wall, while his tongue explored every inch of my mouth. His hand snaked around my waist, opening my robe and leaving my body on show. He placed his hand inside my robe, reaching behind me, causing me to arch my back. With one swift movement, he had unfastened my bra. He slowly pulled down my robe from my shoulders, slipping it off me. His kiss was intensifying and I couldn’t help the moan that escaped my lips. ---------------------- Suffering from domestic violence and finally running away from her partner, Luna started an adventure with her friend in London.
