Careless Whispers

She's falling in love with the one man she can't trust...

Elaina Robidoux knows how people view her: coldhearted, ambitious, ruthless. But it doesn't matter. Running the family business is all she's ever wanted and she's so close she can almost taste it...until her father fires her and hires her nemesis--arrogant, unflappable Alex Tyson. Elaina may be hurt but she refuses to be defeated, so she throws herself into creating a business of her own. But she never dreamed that to close her first deal, she'd need Alex's help...

Alex understands the power of a family legacy better than most and the last thing he wanted was to take that from Elaina. Her beauty and fierce strength are undeniable, but there's a softer side that no one but him seems to see. She's been taught that emotions are a liability, yet one impulsive kiss starts a chain reaction that neither of them wants to stop. But can love ignite--and survive--when secrets and loyalties collide?
