If I want something, I go after it, and I want revenge on Dakota Atwell. I hate the way she’s lived rent free in my head since the day she left me. I hate the way she smells like fresh flowers and citrus. I hate the way my pulse races every time she walks into my office. I hate the way I dream about touching her soft skin, digging my fingers into her hair, and taking what I want from her. Now that I own her company, nothing will stop me from breaking her. Nothing but the pain in her eyes when she looks at me and the attraction still sizzling between us. I’ve never wanted a woman more than I want her, and I will burn this company to the ground to get her.

He’d only come to her wedding to close that unrequited chapter of his life for good. But perhaps it wasn’t as unrequited as he thought.

They tell me I’ll beg for their touch, their attentions, their…knots. I must resist them before it’s too late.
