Will my broody, tormented billionaire boss wreck me—or save me?

Six months ago, I escaped from a monster in the dead of night, our five-year-old daughter asleep in my arms. Desperate and rapidly running out of cash, my luck finally turns when I land a bartending job at a swanky Los Angeles nightclub.

The owner is difficult, moody, and relentless in his crusade for perfection. But it’s not hard work that scares me. It’s the burgeoning swell of desire that consumes me every time our eyes meet across the crowded dance floor.

But if I’m damaged, he’s wrecked. The truth is, we can’t run from our pasts. The demons shadowing our steps always catch us in the end.

When mine comes knocking, and the truth spills out, will he come to my rescue?

Or is he so broken by his own experiences that I’ll have to face my nemesis alone?
