Emma Anderson has everything in her life worked out. She has her perfect job in a Manhattan empire allowing her to live a quiet and organised safe existence. A necessity to her, after a childhood filled with bad memories, abuse, and a mother who was less than useless.
But, with it comes a problem, one that could derail everything she thought she needed in her life. Her promotion sends her straight into the close employment of young, gorgeous, playboy billionaire, Jacob Carrero with his formidable reputation for being a player. Stuck as his right-hand man, every waking moment of every single day, she realises he is exactly the type of person who could drive her crazy, and not in a good way. Like chalk and cheese, he is everything she's not. 
Compulsive, confident, laid back, dominant and fun, with a seriously laid back attitude to casual sex and dating. 
Jake is the only one with an ability to steamroll over her manicured ice maiden exterior, who is not phased by the closed in demeanour and cool manners, but as much as she wants to, letting him in is another thing entirely. 
A past that made her man wary and no desire to ever let one close enough to hurt her again, Jacob Carrero has his work cut out. He is not someone who takes NO for an answer and will have to learn how to break through if he wants more than the mask she shows the world. 
Jake needs to show her that even some one like him can change when that one girl that matters breaks through. Love-able sexy characters and deep emotional topics.

The Carrero Series (1-3)

　　I know that several heated calls have taken place in the last few days since the Hunter merger became public. I quickly learned how strained the father-son relationship is, and it’s not the first time we have evaded Carrero Senior. Jake either evades him or insists on antagonizing him in heated fights, usually in public. They have a deep-rooted conflict I’ve never pressed him about.


　　“Why didn’t you leave me out there to tell them you’re not here then?” I snap, keeping my voice low. I hate when he grabs me, yet it’s something he does frequently when he wants me to move in a hurry or get out of his way.


　　Wouldn’t kill you to just ask me to move!


　　“Because wherever you are, is where I usually am. He knows that!” I can’t argue with that logic. Jake seems to require my presence a lot more than I ever saw him with Margo.
