## Summary

Prickly yet fragile, Chloe works hard to protect herself from any further harm by burying herself in work. The traumas and betrayals of her past demand it. But when she meets Ethan Frost, a boss, friend, and lover as sensitive as he is dominant, her walls are going to crumble. And she's finally going to come face-to-face with the past she's been hiding from.

Ethan Frost has spent his life building an empire, giving back to the community, and practicing a mindfulness and self-control rooted in relaxation and nature. Chloe is the only woman to ever bring out this passionate, animal side of him, and he'd do anything to be with her and keep her safe.
