Katarina is starting over after losing the loves of her life — husband, pregnancy and job (not to mention dignity) — while Steven is a hedge fund manager/consummate bachelor/all-around prick whose only loves in life are his solitude and ambition. But Katarina hasn’t lost her no-BS spirit. Feisty yet flawed, she stands up to Steven’s cockiness and cracks through his business-like demeanor, while he breaks down her walls of resistance to give them both the fresh start they desperately need.

Opposites clash but are magnetically drawn to each other in this slow-burning love story about real people with real problems who find connection and redemption. But first, they must peel away the tragedies and traumas that are holding them back from a future together.

There will be plenty of romance, flirting, witty dialogue, steamy sex and even some politics for the news junkies. But the plot is underpinned by mature themes — divorce, death, depression, class issues and infertility. This is a personal story based on real experiences and really imperfect human beings, so please be kind. But feedback is definitely welcome. Story is complete so you won’t be left hanging. I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I did writing it!

"You can have me, Kian," I whispered, elation that my plan was coming into play, making my voice low. "Are you sure? Because you don't know, Jade. You," a deep groan escaped him, the rumble of his words vibrating against the arch of my throat, "don't know how much it's taking me not to bend you over and slam myself inside you." ***|***|*** Coldhearted and ruthless, Kian Fields is done with his toxic marriage. Bitter, he focuses on his multi-billionaire company, loathing all women that roam the face of the Earth. Until he meets feisty Jadesola, who goes out of her way to mock him. Stunning and hot-headed, Jadesola is on the verge of poverty---her no-good ex-fiance has made off with half of her casino's earnings--- and the only choice she has is to request financial aid from none other than her nemesis, Kian. Except that Kian has a thrilling game plan up his infuriatingly gorgeous sleeve. He's out for revenge and will only agree, if and only if she becomes his personal assistant a.k.a office slave. But Jade is a woman with a fierce backbone and it would be a cold day in hell before she dances to his wicked tunes. With sinister family secrets and chilling mysteries blowing their entangled way, it's a wonder who would tame the other and come out victorious. The game is on. EXPLICIT CONTENT.
