At Kingsley University, money buys power, and power buys silence.
Alayina Rodriguez came to Blackwood Bay for a fresh start and a clean future-unaware that her prestigious family is secretly tied to Europe's most dangerous underworld syndicate.
Chase Black. Cold, condescending, and arrogant, Chase is the heir to the American crime empire that keeps her family in business. He knows every dark secret Alayina is being hidden from. And when a mandatory, year-long buissnes project traps them together, he makes it his personal mission to test every single boundary she has.
Alayina refuses to back down. Chase refuses to lose. But in a game built on secrets, deceit, and lethal attraction, crossing the line isn't just dangerous it's addictive.

I tangled my fingers into his hair, pulling him down until his lips were hovering just over mine. "Not a chance in hell, Black."
