For Valerie Reed, escape wasn't a dream, it was a necessity. Her family was a tangled mess she desperately needed to break free from, and college was her lifeline. A boyfriend? That was just asking for trouble, a distraction she couldn't afford. But then Isaac Paterson showed up, and suddenly, Valerie's carefully constructed walls started to crumble. Isaac Paterson had mastered the art of detachment. He floated through life, never putting down roots, never letting anyone get too close. Oakwood High was just another backdrop in his transient existence. But Valerie Reed was impossible to ignore. She was small, fierce, and determined, and something about her sparked a flicker of something he thought he'd lost long ago.

When 20 year old Valerie Fernandez's father is killed in uncertain circumstances, she's left with nothing but the urge to avenge her father, and his empire. With the aid of her childhood best friend and second in command Santiago Marrero, she's soon able to find answers. But at what cost? 22 year old Santiago Marrero has yearned for his best friend all his life. Being her second in command and right hand? Not. Helping. So when her father dies in unforseen circumstances, he knows he has to stick by her. And it's not just for the empire. It's deeper. It's desire.
