InfiltrateIt was a toss up to Ashley what she enjoyed more: Her job as an executive assistant at MOI or the gorgeous marketing director who teased her with his good-boy charms. When he made arrangements for her to be a temp for his nemesis, persuading her to help him find dirt on the COO, Callous Caden, she reluctantly agreed, never mind that Caden was to take over as CEO. Caden in person was as bad as his brutal reputation claimed. Vile, fouled-mouth, impatient, and that was on a good day. Surrounded by lies and manipulation, Ashley was the chicken soup to Caden’s tired soul. She was unlike anyone he’d met, innocent and easygoing. There wasn’t a deceptive or malicious bone in her body. His temp was definitely tempting him, but there was something not adding up with Ashley, and he meant to find out what that was.PerpetuateAfter Brad Hawkes fired her father, Gemma showed up at his office to plead his case, but the heartless man refused to give her dad another chance. To top it off, the disgusting man popped into the restaurant where she worked and made sure she served him.

InfatuateLook at you, pining over him like some love-starved loser. It’s quite sad, the way he chooses not to see you.Everyone in the office knew. Suzy’s wild infatuation was that pathetically transparent, devoting aching years adoring him from afar. That was, everyone except the beautiful, giant, tatted man himself. Carlson barely acknowledged her, and only if he was forced to within polite society. Until the company party where his sturdy body carted her small frame on his back, made her feel as tall as him, enabled her to see things she wouldn’t had.He was the CEO’s personal right-hand man… until he wasn’t. Promoted to an executive out of the blue, Suzy couldn’t possibly believe there could be anything between Carlson and her now.Carlson proved he was a man of many talents, but his most ambitious battle was convincing Suzy he was all she needed.
