Savannah Mars was always considered as the school nerd. With her thick rimmed glasses, dark hair and plain clothes, she would often go unnoticed. But after a failed confession to her high school crush, school jock Nathan Court, Savannah then became the school's favorite punching bag.
Now several years later, she once again comes face to face with Nathan, except now he's her boss. Nathan has not forgotten Nerdy Savannah, and yet now instead of wanting to intimidate her, he wants nothing more than to dominate the now confident, beautiful, mature secretary.
Stuck in a contracted clerical position for a whole year, Savannah must once again survive the emotional turmoil brought about by her boss and old bully, who is once again hell bent on making her submit to him. But this time, there is more on the line. Her heart.

Sneak Peek:
"Had I known that I'd be working for you, I would've never accepted the position." Savannah admitted with a fire in her eyes.
"Why?" Nathan said with a condescending scowl, "you hate me?"
"No, Hate is a strong word." Savannah replied, then her mouth soured and her eyes hardened, "but it's not strong enough. I despise you."
"Way to hold a grudge." Nathan commented, then he added, "but you might want to slow down on the hatred, you still have 360 days left in your contract."
"And I'll spend every single one of them despising you." Savannah promised.
She turned sharply and aimed to open the door. Nathan's large hand suddenly pushed the wooden passageway closed.
Savannah released a huff but didn't face Nathan again.
"I don't appreciate being threatened Ms. Mars, and if you remember the old days, cross that line and there will be a price to pay."
"You're not about to carry me out in bridal style again, are you?"
"Do you want me to?" He couldn't help but smirk. Her face from their date surfaced in his memories. He found it just as amusing as back then. Revenge never tasted sweeter. Would she make the same reaction right now?
It was tempting but the venue wasn't the best place for it.
"No!" Eve protested a little too loudly. She pressed her fingers against her mouth and scanned the premise. As she predicted, hundreds of eyes watched them. A groan escaped her lips. She buried her face on the side of his chest, inhaling his cologne.
"Are you sure?" Ambryan asked, genuinely concerned now. He held her chin and raised it. His violet eyes met her hazel ones. The blush on her cheeks had magnified in saturation. He couldn't tell anymore if it came from embarrassment or the alcohol.
Either way, it intrigued him on how much redder she could possibly be.
He leaned down and whispered in her ear. "I'd be gentle this time."

Eve faced the most difficult decision in her life when an opportunity landed on her desk. And that is? To join a special dating site for the most eligible bachelor of the country,
Her boss.
As a secretary, Eve knew affiliations between her and her boss were forbidden. She must stay in his shadow where she didn't pose a threat to his lovers and his admirers. She had taken measures to fit the job, even changing her style of appearance.
Ambryan Hathaway, CEO of Eros Productions, disliked false information. The only ones he allowed were the ones he initiated himself. In order to please his mother, he had participated in the game of love with a string of flings.
Unfortunately, his mother had enough. She must find a way for him to open his eyes and his heart to meeting the right girl. That one spark would be enough for her son to consider marriage.
And who would be the better candidate than his own secretary?
