Twenty-five-year-old investigative journalist Adrianna Torrence has built her career-and her fair share of enemies-by exposing the darkest secrets of Hollywood's elite. When a string of death threats forces her to seek protection, she turns to Gold Standard Security, the most elite bodyguard firm in the industry. What she doesn't expect is Reed Redwood-a cocky, dangerously charming playboy whose reputation has her questioning everything, including his abilities.
But Reed has his own motives. After discovering that his father, the powerful CEO of GSS, is running a blackmail empire, Reed is determined to take him down and reclaim the company. To do that, he needs Adrianna to pose as his girlfriend, trading her expertise for his protection.
Drawn by the promise of her biggest story yet, Adrianna agrees despite her frustration with Reed's womanizing charm. But as their chemistry blurs the lines between fake and real, Adrianna finds herself caught between her growing feelings and the dangerous truths they're uncovering. Faced with an impossible choice, she must decide: follow her heart or risk everything to expose Hollywood's most explosive scandal.
It's been thirteen years since Tyler has seen Mikey for more than just a handful of minutes in a passing visit. A ten year age difference hadn't stopped her crush, not after the fateful day he'd saved her life; he'd been home for Christmas, visiting his sister Val, who's married to Tyler's older brother, Reggie. Val had given birth to their first baby on Thanksgiving, and that Christmas was the first time Mikey was coming home to see him. As Tyler had been leaving the house, she'd slipped on the ice, hitting her head and knocking herself out. If Mikey hadn't found her when he did, rushed her to the emergency room, she would have died of hypothermia.
That's when her obviously unreciprocated crush had started. She'd known him all her life. She was nothing more than his best friend's kid sister, the one he barely saw since making it to the N.B.A. and having spent the last ten years playing out in California. But he's home now, having been traded to Washington, the same city Tyler just happens to be going to school in.
At twenty-one can she finally catch his attention? Can she finally tell him about her crush? The one she's had for the last five years. Will he ever see her as anything other than his best friend's little sister?
