I romanced her for revengeโฆbut what if sheโs not the enemy after all?
Iโm Clint Holmes. I was an ambitious guy with a busy life and a growing business. Sure North Dakota wasnโt a tropical paradise, but I was happy enoughโuntil tragedy struck. Now the only thing that matters is finding the person responsible and making her pay. But Bethany Banks is a Harvard-educated shark used to swallowing her enemies whole while playing dangerous corporate games. How can a blue-collar oil man like me possibly beat her?
The moment I lay eyes on my beautiful nemesis, the answer is obvious. I seduce her.
On Maui, where sheโs fled, I get to know the man-eater who caused my family so much painโฆonly to find sheโs not the brazen ballbuster I assumed. Sheโs skittish, secretive, vulnerable. For some reason, my instinct is to protect her. I canโt abandon my planโฆbut I canโt stop wanting her. Night after night, I pry her open with my touch until Iโm drowning in our passion. Soon, Iโm questioning everything, especially the fine line between love and hate. But when the past comes back to wreak vengeance and the truth explodes, can I prove that Iโm more than tempted to love her forever?
