My life was already a whirlwind when I got to Cape May, New Jersey. After my mom's death, I had a hard time adjusting, but moving in with my father was going to be a fresh start for me. It was all planned out … until he appeared. Walking into the coffee shop where I’m sketching, Derrick is as hot as sin, and things I have never felt before erupt inside of me. The way he looks at me like I’m the only woman on Earth, makes me ready to give him anything. From that day forward, I feel like eyes are always watching me, someone waiting just around the corner to make me theirs. I know it's him. Derrick. It should scare me to death, except … what if I want to belong to him? I can't help myself. From the very beginning, I knew Alina was the one. She's gorgeous, with curves in all the right places, and a mouthwatering innocence that makes me want to claim her for myself. I'm not letting her go. She's mine. But I've come to Cape May to get away from the world, and if she finds out who I really am, is there any way she can ever want me for the man I am, and not the numbers in my bank account? Unable to let her go, I watch every step she takes, keeping tabs on her until the right moment I can make her mine. She just needs to trust me, and the chemistry between us will take care of the rest. A man like me always gets what he wants, and this time, it's her.
