~ Synopsis ~
Isolated in the luxurious
Wolf Cove Hotel in Alaska, Abbi Mitchell is thousands of miles away from her
family and friends.
In the hands of a predator.
Potentially.
After discovering
condemning information about the mercurial man who controls her day-to-day work
life and, now, her most intimate private life as well, Abbi's not sure she can
continue on with... whatever is going on between her and Henry
Wolf. Especially when he's about to be thrown into a fiery media circus ring,
and she, along with her reputation, will undoubtedly get dragged into it with
him.
But breaking things off
with the Big Bad Wolf now likely means losing her job and her summer of
freedom, and going back to the farm and her controlling mother.
She's not doing that.
Abbi does have something to
hold over Henry's head. If he forces her hand. If she
has the guts to do what amounts to blackmail.
But will the all-powerful
Henry Wolf concede, or will she finally feel his bite?
~ Excerpt ~
That’s when my personal phone starts ringing. The one sitting
inside my purse.
I stifle the urge to hiss
with panic as I fumble for it, the strap of my purse slipping off my shoulder
in the process. It hits the floor with a soft thud. I dive for it, cursing
under my breath as I root through the pocket with frantic hands, finding it and
flipping the silence button on the side. Hoping the noise will go unnoticed.
I’m still on my knees
with my head bowed when the door creaks open wider and Henry’s polished black
shoes appear in front of me.
“I’ve gotta go. Call me
when you’re in my office and I’ll give you the code to the safe,” Henry
demands, his voice unnaturally calm as compared to a moment ago, though no less
hostile.
I take my time collecting
the few items that spilled from my purse while I decide what to do. What should
I say? Do I play dumb? Do I say I just got here? Do I pretend I don’t know a
thing, and smile and wait expectantly for him to kiss me?
Tell me to strip?
F*ck me on his desk? In
his bed?
Even as appalled as I am
with him right now, I’d be lying if I said the thought of having him touch me
doesn’t spark heat between my thighs. He’s turned me into some sort of sex
deviant. But I can’t just sit here on my knees as if I’m waiting for him to
unzip his fly. I finally dare look up, in time to see his hand stretch out in
front of him, palm out.
It could be considered a gentlemanly offer, and yet from Henry Wolf I hear the command.
Sliding my fingers over
his calloused palm—he must have earned those splitting wood—I ease to my feet.
I take a deep, calming breath before I let my gaze climb his firm, hard body,
his charcoal designer suit as perfect and out of place in the wilds of Alaska
as on any other day, before meeting his eyes. The cold, steely blue in them
instantly creates knots in my stomach.
“You have a bad, bad
habit of eavesdropping, Abigail,” he whispers.
He knows I hate being called Abigail, but now’s not the time to remind him of that. I clear my throat to avoid sounding weak and fearful. “I didn’t want to interrupt.”
“Liar.” His lip twitches with amusement, but it falls off so quickly. “What exactly did you hear?”
Here’s the moment of
truth. Lie and smile, or confront him with what I know. Which is it?

~ Synopsis ~
When life turns to hell, most people talk about running away. Abbi Mitchell actually does it. Determined to escape her humiliating heartbreak and her overbearing mother, Abbi takes a summer job at a resort in Alaska. It's supposed to be four months of snow-capped mountains, peaceful wilderness, and figuring out if she should wait for her lifelong sweetheart to come back, as he has promised he'll do.
Instead, it's Henry Wolf.
Owner of the luxury hotel chain, Henry Wolf is cool and composed, successful with everything he touches, and undeniably beautiful. And for some reason Abbi can't fathom, he wants her—the farm girl from small town, USA with no corporate experience—as his personal assistant.
Abbi scrambles to meet his professional demands while she battles her growing attraction to him. Physical feelings she shouldn't have because he's her boss, because she's way out of her league with him, and because they'll never be reciprocated.
Until they are.
Will Abbi be able to let go of herself—her values, her dreams, and her inhibitions—to give him all that he's demanding of her?
