Zia, a feisty Polynesian island girl with a secret ability to see the future, has found herself in the worst possible situation-sold into a high-end secret brothel in Italy, where foreign girls are auctioned off to the criminal elite. Luckily, the owners are keeping their "goods fresh," meaning she and the others haven't been touched. But time is running out. Then, she gets a vision: Jax Vinci, a devastatingly handsome CEO and one of the most feared mafia bosses alive, is about to storm in and burn the whole operation to the ground. Jackpot. That's her way out. With nothing but pure nerve (and let's be real-desperation), Zia sneaks out of captivity and straight into the VIP room of the dangerous crime lord himself, dropping the bombshell: "I know you're about to obliterate this place in an hour" Jax is unimpressed. Why believe a random, barely-dressed girl in the middle of a human auction? But Zia isn't backing down. "I'll be useful." She swears. Famous last words. Sure, Jax saves her-and the other girls-but let's get one thing straight: he's no knight in shining armor. Ruthless? Balanced on the razor-thin edge between calculated sociopathy and unhinged psycopathy? Zia is stuck with a man who treats emotions as an afterthought and intimidation like an art form. Surviving him is one thing. Keeping up? That's another. And falling for the dark brooding mafia boss who just might be worse than the monsters he destroyed? (Yeah... she's in trouble) (All characters and events in this story are purely fictional. Any resemblance to real people, living or dead, is purely coincidental.)

"If you are ever lucky enough to come across something so beautiful it shifts your whole world, don't ever let that go." Beckett Davis: I've been in love with Bailey Connors since I was 7 years old and she gave me back my soccer ball. We've been neighbors for years, even sharing windows facing each other's bedrooms. Our families are close, I view her grandfather as my own. The only thing is, I still can't bring myself to say more than a few words to the girl who occupies most of my thoughts. Going into my last year of high school, I needed the chance to have my world shifted by Bailey Connors. Bailey Connors: I broadcasted my crush on Beckett Davis in the 2nd grade after decorating him a cookie. And every time after that when I can't control how my face heats around him. My grandfather adores the boy next door, and who doesn't? I'm embarrassed of how long it took me to reach for things I may want, instead of just letting things happen to me. Beckett's seen some of my worst moments from afar, but what would it be like for him to see them up close? #1 in bookworm #1 in highschoolromance #1 in foundfamily #1 in goldenretriever #1 in neighbors #1 in teenromance #1 in friendstolovers
