Reed
Prescott’s life is complicated enough before a silly little girl in outrageous
high heels bites it in front of his moving vehicle. With no other choice, he
forces her out of the pouring rain and inside his car. His concern isn’t
necessarily with her safety, but to ward off any potential lawsuit.
Lara
Hunter’s life is headed in the right direction. With a good education, a great
new job, and her dear best friend, Kade, by her side, nothing can get in her
way until a freak rain storm leaves her sprawled across the road in the middle
of a busy intersection during rush hour traffic. When the gorgeous man in the
business suit and too expensive car takes her back to his office, she’s not
entirely sure she appreciates his high-handed helpfulness.
When Reed's
assistant finishes with Lara, he finds his entire world rocked by the
captivating beauty underneath that soggy exterior. From day one, Reed's success
in business has always been fueled by a deep, unbreakable hate for his
grandfather. So when the potential for love stands in front of him, can this
hardened man find a way to chase his own happiness?

After a second more, with the motivation of
persistent banging, she went for the door, looked through the peep hole and
froze. Reed. She ducked, like he would be able to see her looking out. Why was
he here? She looked back through the hole, and his face was downcast, focused
on the floor until his eyes shifted to the hole on the other side of the door.
He was looking straight at her. She dropped down again.
“I hear you in there. Just open the door.”
She turned her back to the door and rolled her
eyes. She wasn’t ready to see him. Her resolve was firm, but she needed time to
gather her wits.
“I’m not dressed,” she finally yelled back.
“At this point, I don’t think that matters. Open
the door, Lara.” Reed spoke clearly, but quietly.
“It’s not a good time for me,” she tried again.
“Open the door.” He wasn’t giving, and of course,
her neighbor upstairs began banging on the floor. Her eyes shot up to the
ceiling. God, she didn’t want to do this. She waited, completely panicked. When
no sound came from behind the door, she prayed he’d left, and she slowly lifted
to look back out the peep hole. Reed stood there, staring at the door.
