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)

　　Vincent, her man of the moment, seems oblivious. I try to convince myself that I’m imagining it, that he’s merely willing her to stop eye-raping him. I’m being paranoid and stupidly jealous, even though I have no right, but it still causes me to watch them a little too closely, nerves piqued.


　　“What choice did I have?” Jake cuts in, oblivious, “Daniel would have had us sleeping out there at that rate. Not that he would have minded; Daniel’s always trying to get in the sack with me. The boy’s still trying to deny his feelings,” he jests and swigs at his beer, throwing Daniel a wink.


　　“It’s kind of heartbreaking to watch him suffer. Unrequited love,” Richard breaks in, stifling a grimace as Daniel slaps his back with a noisy ‘thwap’.


　　“Fuck you. Both of you,” Daniel retaliates with an annoyed tone and no smile.


　　“You know when you know, right?” Vincent throws a wink at Daniel too, and three of the four men burst out laughing. Daniel rolls his eyes and gives them the finger.
