Jude Leland Balfour. At thirty-four, Jude Leland Balfour is the disciplined and sharp-minded heir to the vast Balfour conglomerate.

At its heart, Elites explores how lies can both destroy and create beauty in unexpected ways.

"You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
