Kehlani is just that... Kehlani. A walking contradiction-shy but sharp-tongued, sweet with a mean side-eye. After years away finishing school, she's back home and stepping into her role as the new head of G&D Enterprises, inheriting the reins from her father, Gregory Spade. But she's not doing it alone. Niklaus Beaufort -sexy, arrogant, and entirely too charming for his own good-is stepping up for his father, Declan Beaufort. Together, they're expected to lead the company into its next era. But working side by side isn't so simple when your partner gets under your skin-in all the worst and best ways. And her equal in title, if not in temperament. Tensions rise, chemistry flares, and the lines between business and personal blur. Some moments will be good, bad, spicy & sad. But.... none of it will be easy.

But when gusts of wind quake their pitiful selves, in form of new opportunities and of course men, Kiki and Nicole wonder why the painter suddenly decided upon subdued tints? ********** Nicole could distinctively make out the intonations of her heartbeat. It was no smooth asphalt, nor was it pleasing. It was entirely the opposite. She imagined a rugged chassis and deep-rooted crevices upon a rocky road. A dangerous road trip. She feared that her heart might give out. Her legs already were a noodly pair, holding onto her dress for support. It was clear that Nicole's mind was a soiled pool of water. It just wasn't functional anymore. Jane Austen would be disappointed, and so would her mother. Nicole was never the forward type of woman. She always thought of herself as demure as a sun's glow right before the full onset of night. Her wanton behavior today was a surprise on her side and she more than willingly blamed it on the cheery night and maybe on the way Wayne's minty breath hit her exposed clavicle like one inclement wind upon feeble branches of a tree.
