I firmly believe love isn’t for me. Hell—just about everything that could go wrong in my life has. So, why should I give this man the time of day when all I’ve ever known is struggle and disappointment? He won’t be any different…
Social worker turned survivor Liberty Mays hasn’t exactly had the best luck with life. However, she’s trying to make the most of the one she has and is finally coming out of the mental fog she’s been in for the past year following a vicious attack that almost left her dead. With her job in jeopardy, she reluctantly agrees to an invitation-only event that has the means to change her life. Dipping her toe into being free, even for just one night, she finds herself caught between the desires of two best friends. One man is cunning, but the other is more daring, and makes Liberty realize that she harbors darker desires than she’d ever thought possible.
After a brutal betrayal I’d resigned myself to not believing in love, and to never trying again, until she walked into my life and made me realize that I didn’t just want her…I’m willing to kill my best friend over her.
Gideon Arison has spent the last six years of his life focused on nothing but work and mourning the death of his father and late wife. Plagued by the demons of the past, year after year he finds himself putting his duty to Arison Industries above all else to cope—that is, until Liberty walks into the room and flips his life upside down, bringing out a part of him that he didn’t even know existed. Obsessed, he becomes ruthless in his pursuit, single-mindedly focused on the only thing that gives him sleepless nights and turns him into someone he doesn’t recognize when he looks in the mirror.
Their relationship sharpens into something real, but there’s forces behind the scenes working to attack him at every which way. And soon, Gideon has some hard decisions that he’s going to have to make in order to fully step into his and Liberty’s new life. Will he let his demons stand in the way of his future? Will he let the grudges of the past continue to dictate his every move?
