Tessa:

I'm thirty-six, newly divorced, and forced back into a law career I left to raise my kids. Starting over sucks.

Because nothing ever goes simply for me, I am forced to travel on the other side of the mountains for a deposition. And of course, on my way home, my car breaks down and my phone has no service. I walk and walk, and find the only building in sight. Its dark, loud, and my only option.

I walk inside... and instantly realize I've stepped into a world I don't belong in.

I try to leave, but apparently you can't just walk in a leave after you see everything.

And at the center of it is a man who is the opposite of everything I know.

Dagger:

Nothing about my life is simple.

Nothing is what it looks like.

I'm getting older. Forty-eight. President of Hell's Fire. My life is built on control, loyalty, and keeping outsiders at a distance.

Then Tessa walks in -- classy, lost, and clearly unaware of where she's wandered.

She sees more than she should.

But she also sees me in a way nobody else does.

And she's wrong about the kind of man she thinks I am.

Because nothing is as it appears.

Nothing.
