Kathryn Denton is not your average college graduate. She's made more mistakes and been through more than anyone her age. But she's over that now. With her hard earned degree in hand, she's ready to go into the real world and forget about her past. Unfortunately, fate has other plans in store for her. Just as she's about to start her new life, she spends one night with the sexy, dangerous, and irresistible James Manticorps. She may not realize it, but her world is about to change forever. James Manticorps seems like someone who can have anything he wants. He's confident, charming...and also the CEO and heir to a multi-million dollar media business. But James Manticorps is not the freewheeling playboy that the media makes him out to be. When he realizes that all he wants is Kathryn, he finds that the one thing he wants, may be the only thing he can't have. After a mind-blowing night with James, Kathryn finds out that not only is her new job at none other than Manticorps Media, but also that James Manticorps may be hiding much more. As soon as Kathryn begins her new job, she's dropped into a tense political drama that spans generations. Will Kathryn be able to cope? Will James Manticorps tear her apart or will he make her whole? less

Kathryn soon realizes that working at Manticorps Media is more treacherous than she expected. She only wanted to focus on her career and do a good job, but that might not be possible in an environment of backstabbing and half-lies. When she finds out that the socialite that James is engaged to trying to swindle the Manticorps family of their money, Kathryn is at a loss for what to do. When the heat between Kathryn and James rises to a scorching new level, will she shatter under the pressure?

Kathryn has put off telling James about his backstabbing "fiancee" for far too long and now she may have to face the consequences. When Heather ends up in a desperate situation, she is willing to do anything, including hurting both James and Kathryn, to get what she wants. Now, Kathryn and James must find a way to nurture and grow their fledgling romance against Heather's threats.
