At twenty-four, Skye thought finishing school would feel like freedom. Instead, it feels like standing at the edge of something she isn't sure she can survive. When she lands a job at one of the most powerful publishing companies in the city, she tells herself it's just work. Just a stepping stone. Her new boss is nothing like her. At thirty-six, the CEO is disciplined, distant, and relentlessly devoted to her company. Emotions are a liability. Control is everything. Skye is hired to assist her, to stay quiet, to keep up-and to never become personal. But long days, shared silences, and moments that slip through the cracks begin to blur the lines. Skye's carefully hidden struggles start to surface, and the woman who built her life on order is forced to confront something she never planned for: vulnerability, in someone else and in herself. As ambition collides with intimacy, both women must decide what they are willing to risk-for their careers, for their carefully constructed lives, and for each other.

Isolate

No one ever wanted Riley Knight: not her father, who made sure she didn't have any part in his or his families life; not her mother, who resented her for virtually everything; nor her step father, who has hated her since before she was born. Not even her own big brothers -- the ones who are suppose to love and protect her no matter what -- wanted her. Or so she thought. Riley is the product of an affair -- well her and her twin brother, Rome, are -- but she never had two parents. See, her father has always had "something against" the female sex and therefore, it is weak in his eyes to have a daughter. So he kept Rome and sent Riley away from the second the twins were born. He is the one responsible for turning his six sons against his youngest child and only daughter and, therefore, chaining her to a life of abuse and neglect. But did he succeed? Following her fathers death 7 years ago, Riley's brothers have taken a bigger interest in her and her quality of life, ensuring it was up to par. But all is still not perfect among the Knight siblings. Will Riley finally find her solace among her big brothers? Will they find out about the horrors she faces on a day-to-day basis? Can this family ever become one again ... or do the scars run too deep?
