It's not easy having to start all over, but that's what Addison Foster is faced having to do after her ex-husband left her nearly broke, and with a ton of bills needing to be paid.  She decides to look for a job and that's when she discovers a help wanted ad in the local newspaper.

That is also when her life takes a drastic turn.  Someone will make her an offer of a lifetime. 
She will literally have to decide between swallowing her pride, opening herself up to things she never thought she would do, or losing everything she worked hard to have.

Dominic Bradford isn't exactly hurting for money; he literally has money to burn. What he doesn't have is a wife and love.  Some of his associates tend to look down on the fact he isn't married, he doesn't have children, and he starts to feel the pressure. He feels his only option is to hire what others expect him to have.

To him, it's just business, no strings attached. It's a perfect way to insure they both get what they want without having to worry about love.

At least that's what they try and convince themselves of. 

Secrets always have a way of being brought to light.

When he discovers a certain secret, it will rock him to his core.

When someone appears to be guilty, it's   someone else's cruel intentions.

The love that feared no danger, the one that overcame excruciating pain will once again be tested by the ugly truth Arabella uncovers about Adrian Castle. Perhaps he's not the man she thought he was, and maybe he's indeed nothing but a cruel, emotionless monster who destroys everything he touches.

I never thought my life would be like this; trapped in a dark room and scared for my life. A blindfold was wrapped around my head, covering my eyes, making me completely blind and on high alert. My breathing was ragged and I could smell the mold that was most likely covering most of the room. My hands were tied behind my back, my feet tied together and I was sitting on the floor, propped up against a wall. I heard a slight shuffling across the room that was coming closer to me. I tried my hardest to keep my breathing under control to seem confident and fearless, but in reality, I was shitting my pants and squealing like a scared little girl on the inside. To say I was terrified was a drastic understatement. I was petrified, shaking with fear, but they were not going to know that. "Who are you?!" I demanded. If I was going to die, it would be with the name of my kidnapper. A voice boomed closely to me, "Well, if I told you that, this wouldn't be any fun." **************** Skylar James, a 24 year old girl, is kidnapped by a very well known gang who has a vendetta against her family. In an attempt to find light in her situation, she makes friends with one of the members. Logan Grant was forced into the gang at the young age of 16. He was abused until he became emotionless and ruthless, so that one day, he could rule the gang. Everything was going smoothly until Skylar is brought in. With a blindfold wrapped around her head, he instantly feels bad for her, though he cannot show it. Afraid of getting caught, he shows no emotion while others are around. Though, behind closed doors is a whole other story.
