What happens when crazy, impulsive Janelle Morgan gives in to a one-night stand with a mysterious stranger — only to walk into her new job the next morning and realize the man she slept with is Adrian Cooper… her new boss?
Worse? He remembers everything.
And he’s not letting her forget it.
“You work for me now,” he murmurs, stepping closer. “That means I get to decide what we do after hours too.”
With every stolen glance, every teasing command, Janelle finds herself trapped between professional boundaries and the man who’s slowly unraveling her.
She was supposed to be chasing a career in law.
Not falling into bed — or worse, in love — with her brother’s old friend. A man 10 years older, emotionally unavailable, and hiding a five-year-old daughter he’s never mentioned.
But when passion turns to feelings and secrets start surfacing, Janelle is left to face the one question she never saw coming:
Is Adrian really who he says he is?
What happens when his past collides with the present?
Can Janelle stand the heat, or will she burn in the fire she helped ignite?
“This isn’t love,” he growls.
“Then why does it burn?” she whispers.
Some fires consume you.
Some loves break you.
And some… rewrite the rules.
