Abigail Lane was a woman on the run. Ambiguity her closest friend. New York seemed the perfect place to hide, and disappear amongst the throngs of faceless people. By keeping her head down, and never drawing attention to herself, she managed to succeed at remaining hidden. That is until her world collided with Adam Steele.

Can Adam discover her secrets in time to protect her and stop Abigail, who gave him the one thing his money couldn't buy, from running again?

"Such a smart girl, aren't you?" His voice was a venomous hiss, the smirk on his face twisted into something cruel and taunting. He enjoyed this-enjoyed the power, the control. The metal was cold, biting into my skin as he pushed harder, my skull grinding against the headrest. "Why do this?" I gasped, trying to keep my voice steady, praying for any distraction that might buy me time. "Why be part of something so horrific when you're already a billionaire?"

He asked, putting his hands on my waist and pulling me closer towards him. On instinct, I put my hands on his chest. I didn't like it. I didn't like the way my body was responding to his touches. "T- This is un- unprofessional." I choked out the words, but I wish I couldn't have. He brought his face closer, so close that I could feel his minty breath on my lips.

I was wondering if we could grab some coffee and maybe hang out sometime?" she asked nervously. He turned to her, a sense of darkness and danger emanating from him. Her body went on alert.
