One accident was all it took to shatter Emily Prescott's perfect life.
****
Emily Prescott is a member of the prestigious Prescott family, a family where keeping their wealth, status and power is all that matters, when Emily starts receiving notes that threaten to reveal her families biggest and dirtiest secrets. She knows that its up to her to catch the person sending the threats. She will have to face her fears and put her trust in the handsome dashing stranger.
If ever one was asked to describe Adonis Torricelli it would be summed up in one word, Chaos, but who knew that chaos could look so handsome. A man with a dark secret and a horrible past, after a chance encounter with Emily, Adonis is intensely drawn to her.
He saved her once and he was ready to do it again, even if it meant hurting anyone who stood in her path.
Excerpt:
"Why" he said. He couldn't understand why she was being loyal to people who didn't even care about her, people who would toss her aside without a second glance.
Her gaze was icy. She knew exactly what he meant but she wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing her hurt. She parted her red painted lips slightly. There was a pause before she replied, "Because sometimes all that matters is protecting what's mine."
