In my defense, I had no clue the gorgeous guy I had a wildly steamy night with was my brothers best friend. Or the single dad of the little girl I was about to nanny.

I hadnt seen Dr. Owen Fritz since I was twelve and he was twenty-four, but even back then, I didnt care much about him.

He was doing his billionaire, master-of-the-universe, medical school thing, and I was too into art and books to notice anyone.

Now hes cold and broody, but he doesnt scare me the way he does everyone else.

Hes been scarred, but Ive been scarred worse.

We both promise to leave that night in the past, vowing to keep this secret between us and stay professional from now on.

Especially since Im living with him—sleeping down the hall from him—and his adorable little girl.

Until one night of hell changes everything and all those promises weve been struggling to keep dont just break, they shatter.

Now theres no holding him back.

And the more he watches me with those magnetic eyes or whisks me into dark corners and puts his heated hands on my body, the more I forget why what were doing is so undeniably forbidden.

Were playing with an unstoppable fire.

And were both about to get burned.
