But peace doesn't last long.
After her creepy boss vanishes under mysterious circumstances, Sophia becomes the center of office whispers... and the new target of someone watching her every move. Just when she thinks she's losing control, in walks Dante Romano: cold, commanding, and dangerously unreadable.

But when protection turns into tension, and tension becomes something deeper , it gets harder to remember where safety ends and danger begins.
