All he has to do is smile and Alice’s fantasies stir. A girl can dream, can’t she? A cofounder of KRG, Derek’s promise is to advise small-business owners in trouble. He never guessed that assisting the diffident but sexy Alice would be so captivating and make it so hard to keep his desires in check.

Every new dark twist they follow is only bringing them closer together—in passion and in danger.
