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’m grasping the rail with white knuckles and leaning over, scanning the dark sea frantically. The ship’s crew is out on a small boat searching the water, and Jake has dived in and has already swum back twice. I’m hysterical about the fact he’s this drunk, yet swimming to find his friend in an almost pitch-black ocean. Watching the water with fear gripping my throat, I hold my breath with every dive he takes, willing them to find Daniel, so Jake will get out of the water. I’ve never been so terrified in my life; I can barely move.


　　“He’s here, Mr. Carrero,” yells one of the crew from the boat; I spin towards them as flashlights illuminate the hauling of a lifeless body into it under the moonlight.


　　I’m sitting in my room, and I’m tired and cold; I haven’t slept. Last night was hell. Daniel was airlifted to a hospital on the mainland. He’s okay, but it gave all of us a huge scare. The atmosphere left behind is silent and tense.
