Rich, sexy and volatile, Sloane Michaels has a dark agenda that keeps his heart on ice. His extreme wealth gives him the control he craves and his skills as an ex UFC fighter the tools he'll need to extract his ultimate revenge. But when the woman he never believed he'd see again crosses his path, Sloane is caught between the vengeance he needs and a sexual conquest he craves.

Kat Thayne has been in survival mode for six years, hiding behind the sweet creations for her bakery. But when a random carjacking brings her face-to-face with her darkest fears and hottest fantasy, Kat is forced out of hiding and offered a dangerously passionate proposition. One she knows she isn't strong enough to refuse.

Sloan Michaels has only one thing on his mind and that is revenge. So why is it that ever since seeing Kat at a friend’s wedding he finds himself focusing on her instead? He is sure of himself to say the least, stubborn as most men, and he always, ALWAYS, gets what he wants. That is until he met Kat. Now things are becoming a little more complicated because the more he is around her the more he loses sight of his ultimate revenge.

Kat Thayne was just fine hiding behind her bakery walls. She wasn’t having flashbacks anymore but the anxiety was still there and so was the fear. That all changed in one moment. Now she finds herself actually agreeing to Sloan’s crazy proposal. Of course the fact that he ignites things within her she hasn’t felt in years could have a little something to do with it but he also ignites something else; the will to be the women she was before that horrible night and a means to do it.

Sloan and Kat might seem like oil and water in the very beginning but both are far from it. In truth they are more like gasoline and fire. Every time he is near, he ignites her passion to live, love, and become strong again. He gives her the courage and she is giving him a hard knock on his back side. She is a contradiction to everything he usually goes for in a woman and is now taking up every single waking thought he has.

This book was amazing and the next two need to hurry up and come out! Praise to the author for a book that had my heart aching, my toes curling, and my cheeks completely flushed. The character building was amazing, the plot flowed with perfection, and the cliff hanger was just enough to leave you wanting more.
