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)

　　Why is he here? Is this real? Where did he come from?


　　I don’t care right now; I just feel like I’ve been pulled into the warmest warmth of my life, comforted and protected. I love that he’s around me. I need him around me, pulling me back from devastation, concealing me from the world.


　　Maybe I’m dreaming. I hope I’m not. I need him so badly right now.


　　“Bambina! What’s happened? Is it your mother?” His husky smooth voice is in my hair, in my ear, his warm breath on my cheek bringing back the calm and sense to my inner world. My sobbing calms at the feel of him. He’ll always be my life buoy, my lighthouse in the dark.


　　I shake my head, allowing my arms to creep around his waist, holding onto him tightly, clinging to the familiarity of his body and his skin against mine. I need him more than I need air right now.


　　He came. He’s here. He ignored me telling him not to come. “Give Me A Reason”. It was about why he shouldn’t come!
