I've spent years perfecting the art of being untouchable. I don't date, I don't "do" hookups, and I certainly don't do vulnerability with people that know who I am. But when Ally dragged me to a speed-dating event, I figured I'd spend five minutes being bored and then go home. Then Paloma walked up to me. She was everything I usually avoid-confident, radiant, and looking at me like she could see right through my professional armor. For one night, I let my guard down. For one night, I wasn't the boss; I was just the woman who couldn't keep her hands off her. I thought I'd never see her again. I was wrong. Walking into my firm on Monday morning, I expected the usual spreadsheets and silence. Instead, I found Paloma-my new Creative Director for my magazine, GLINT. Now, the woman who knows exactly what I look like without my suit is the one reporting to me. She's a distraction I can't afford and I'm a risk she shouldn't take. But every time she walks into my office with a stack of files and that beautiful smile, I realize that for the first time in my life, I don't want to follow the rules. I want to break them. ________________________________________________________________________________ Paloma is back in the city, nursing a bruised heart and zero desire to be at a bar. But her friend Nova is relentless, and before she knows it, she's facing Tae; from the most captivating woman she's ever seen. Tae is striking-six feet of quiet intensity, covered in tattoos, and clearly just as reluctant to be there as Paloma is. The connection is instant. The hookup is unforgettable. But when Paloma walks into her new Job on Monday, the woman with the ink and the soft touch isn't a stranger anymore. She's her boss.

She doesn't answer to it all the time. Because the devil is a liar. And his daughter is a crowded room. Heia. Rhiannon. Rhirhi. Could there be another one? Do not confuse them. One pulls you in. One pushes you away. And one doesn't even know you. Some girls save you from fire. Other girls set your house on fire just to carry you out of it. She might exactly be the latter.
