"You are just a spoilt, overindulged little brat!" His ocean blue eyes flashed contempt.
"And you are a rude, arrogant, chauvinistic brute!" She spat, tossing flame coloured curls over her shoulder. 
"Then we have nothing further to say to each other!"
"No!"
"Good! Goodbye!"
"GOODBYE!"

***
Cecilia Rose Knight is used to attracting admiring looks and covetous glances - a necessary evil when your father is richer than Croesus. Being the baby of the family, Cecilia is used to getting her way more often than not; but there's one thing that has remained ever elusive to her: love.  Nevertheless, she's pretty certain she knows what type of guy she's going to fall in love with: warm, kind, open. Until, of course, HE comes along, and shatters everything she's ever believed in...

A self made billionaire, Nicolas Freire has no time or energy for spoilt little princesses. He just wants to do a business deal with Cecilia's father, after which he will become the mogul of his own empire. But, for some reason he can't seem to leave the red-haired vixen well enough alone...

When two stubborn, hard headed individuals collide, the ride is sure to be nothing short of tempestuous. And the heart is sure to be just a little tormented...

I replied damn scared of his reaction. "Don't you ever say anything about hurting you," and he punched the wall so hard that I had no other option but to flinch. "Why?" I shouted.
