A kiss can change everything. One kiss with your best friend, and it changes the whole dynamic. What will you do when you get to know that your best friend has been in love with you?

I am pinned to the wall with her caging me. "Do you know how hard it is to pretend that you are only my friend, and nothing more? That I love you but cannot have you?" Her words spin inside my head, and the thundering beating of my heart echoes in my ear. How do we come to this situation? I pant as she leans closer, her eyes averting to my parted lips. I am having thoughts of kissing her. Hell, I see her in my dreams so often now that I am not sure what she means to me now. Millie caresses my cheeks and a shiver runs down my spine. "I can't pretend anymore, Grace. It's getting really hard" she whispers in my ear and I squirm. When she meets my eyes, I say something that surprises her. "Then don't." I crash my lips on hers, crossing whatever lines we had.

Watching Angela walk off through the club, Adam couldn't help but notice what a fantastic ass she had. Not just curvy, but the kind of J-Lo bubble butt a man wanted to cup with his hands. The kind of cheeks a man could get a solid grip on as he pounded into her. Shifting a bit uncomfortably in his seat, he turned his attention back to his friends to find they were all staring at him. "What?" "What was with the power play man?" Rick asked, looking at Adam a little askance. "You don't usually pull tricks like that. I would have expected it from Chris but not from you." "Hey," said Chris. "I was perfectly polite to the lady." Rick rolled his eyes. "Mostly." All three of them looked at Adam, even Andrew who normally didn't get involved in the interrogate-your-friends sessions. Since he didn’t like to talk about his own issues, he rarely got involved in trying to talk about others’. The fact that Adam's actions had aroused even Andrew's curiosity meant he'd been less subtle than he’d thought.

Lena Whitmore never thought rock bottom had a basement. Drowning in debt, stalked by collectors who would rather see her dead than repaid, she spends her nights barely scraping by as a bartender, hoping to disappear into the background of a world that has never been kind to her. But one wrong turn, one desperate sprint through a dark alley, and she crashes-literally-into the most feared woman in the city. Adrienne D'Amaro. Ruthless billionaire. Enigmatic recluse. A woman whispered about in fearful reverence, whose wealth is as mysterious as the bloodstains she never bothers to explain. When she kills the men hunting Lena without hesitation, Lena realizes she hasn't just stumbled into safety-she's stepped into something far more dangerous. Offered protection under Adrienne's roof, Lena knows she should run. But Adrienne is an enigma she can't solve-a woman both cold and tender, a predator with hands that kill and a gaze that lingers too long. The tension between them simmers, unspoken but undeniable. As Lena finds herself drawn into Adrienne's world, she begins to uncover secrets buried beneath the surface-secrets drenched in blood, tangled in power, and wrapped in a curse that could destroy them both. The closer she gets to Adrienne, the harder it becomes to tell if she's found her savior... or if she's fallen into the clutches of the very devil she should fear. But Adrienne isn't the only one keeping secrets. And when Lena's past collides with her present, she'll have to make an impossible choice: walk away from the woman who saved her... or risk everything to unravel the truth behind the woman who just might ruin her.
