Paige Chadwick has made a success of her life. Everything was in its place, just the way she wanted it. She was at the top of her profession. She was able to stay loyal to her ageing aunt who suffered from dementia by keeping her at home with her. She could look after her sister, financially. Paige felt proud of everything she had accomplished. Her love life was none existent. She didn't need a man in her life for anything. She was very self reliant. Yes, everything was neatly in order until the day she told her boss that she quit! From that moment her world turned upside down and everything fell out of place. Unaccustomed to women giving him the cold shoulder, sexy Media Mogul, Blake Deveraux, regarded his head of Media, Paige Chadwick as a beautiful enigma. Her fiery temper and hostile standoffishness ignited in him a desire to discover the real Paige Chadwick and the reasons why she felt the need to keep men at arm's length. Blake thrived on taking on challenges and winning, but for the first time, he was unsure of what the outcome of this particular challenge was going to be, especially since, unbeknown to her, he and Miss Chadwick shared a past.

Frederick is charmed by Lucy's "adorkable" combination of shyness and spirit, and affection quickly turns to unstoppable desire. But when the relationship gets serious, can Lucy stand living in the public eye, even if Frederick gets down on his knee and begs her to share his life? **NOTE: This story is intended for readers 18+ as it contains sexual content intended for adult audiences** Another note: I started writing this story early in 2014. At that time, the movie mentioned in this story was still just a book. I thought I was writing about a movie that wasn't real. I'm leaving it, though, because there are some movie-related bits of my story that I really like. I hope you do too!
