Ruby Goddard is living on autopilot, going through the motions, trying her best not to let her emotions get the better of her, trying to just move on. Move foreward. Do whatever it takes to get back to work. But until then all she has is a boy she has to train while she waits to be cleared for work again. A cocky, entitled, subborn, extremely attractive boy... Griffin Ellenwood didn't know what he had signed up for when he decided to spend the whole summer with his step brother, at an internship for what seemed like a private practice version of the CIA, but it sure wasn't what he expected. And Ruby sure as hell, was not what he was expecting either. The thing about Griffin, however, is that you can only stay away from him for so long. When she's stuck in hand to hand combat training a strong, attractive, kind hearted boy, she find it hard to keep yourself from holding back from what she really want. But when what Ruby really wants, threatens to keep her away from her chance to have what she's always wanted, what can she do? What can't she do?
