Some would call me a gold digger but I preferred the term financially savvy. I prided myself on my ability to con anyone, that all changed when I met Alexander. Alexander wasn't your normal playboy billionaire; he masked his playboy ways, he deceived everyone around him. When I first met I thought he was the kind, smart and witty person everyone said he was but I was wrong, very wrong. A week after I moved into the Hamptons, he gave a proposal I literally could not deny. Either marry him or my secret be exposed to the world. He was arrogant, selfish and cold-hearted, I was also arrogant, selfish and cold hearted, you would think this would be the perfect union, it was far, far from that. The problems started when I felt myself slowing falling in love with him, why was the cold-hearted billionaire the one who thawed my frozen heart? Would I be able to protect myself from the cold hearted Alexander Markos? *** I do not own any rights to the cover picture, I would like to give credit to the photographer and the website***

For the most part Dava's led a happy life. She had everything that she needed; a loving family, a good home and her romance books. She was saved by the man that she now calls father at the age of five and grew up lacking for nothing. She was the quiet, shy type in school and stayed in the background for the most part and her simple life should have been enough. For the most part, it was. She was even satisfied with the way her life was heading until over night, her happy and simple life gets turned upside down. She walks into school and suddenly his intense gaze is focused solely on her. Adam, the Alpha's son, scented her the moment that she walked in the door.

But now that his own son has stated his claim, can he sit idly by and watch him bond with the one person in this life that was meant for only him?

Leah was having a time adjusting to her new life after her mother remarried. Her step brother hated her, she had trouble making new friends and she would rather just find a quiet corner to read in than attend a high school party like the rest of her class.

And if that wasn't enough to complicate matters, for the first time in her life, someone finds out about her secret.
