Up All Night

An unexpected beginning. An unexplainable love. A sudden hideout on the other side of the world. And a dream come true that may come with a nightmare price tag.

Its absolutely out of the question. Hes my colleagues client. No matter how hot this billionaire Stone Lawson is, I cant have him. Oh, but he wants me. And I want him. At first, its a fling, but it spirals into something that neither of us can handle, and it happens all too quickly. Telling myself that it isnt love doesnt help, because the look in Stones eyes betrays me. His touch tells me everything I need to know. I can hide from my present, but I soon learn that I cant run from my past. When it catches up to me, Im a million miles away, but they find me. They just dont know it yet.

Larks eyes light up my freaking heart. Its painful. Shes something else. But something else thats off limits. While my realtor is on a hunt for land to build my next hotel, Larks future is on the line, and its all my fault. Were electric together. Dangerous. Taboo. But its only when I fall for her that things start to unfold. Shes perfect, but everything around us seems to crumble at the doorstep. Its so bad I start to question if what we have is truly real. And then calling her is for naught. For days, nobody can find her. And then I find out that shes halfway around the world, with all the answers, but Im not sure if any of those answers include me. Problem is, neither does she, and then she fails a test that could tell the tale.
