Harmless
Four years ago I lost my virginity on live, streaming television. Too bad I wasn’t awake for it. The video went viral. Of course it would. A senator’s daughter on camera? Wouldn’t you click “share”? Three of the four guys in the video did. They shared me.
But that fourth guy? The one in the background who did nothing? Not one single thing? That was my boyfriend, Drew. And that was the last time I saw him.
Until today, when my father – now on a path to the White House – hired him as head of security for my new team as I return home after four years of “recovering” in an undisclosed location that involved white lab coats, needles, pills, and damage control. The other three guys never went to jail. Never had charges pressed. Never faced consequences. Until today. Game on.
She has no idea what she’s doing. Loose cannons never hit their targets. Four years ago Lindsay experienced the unspeakable right before me, and I couldn’t stop them. But that’s all changed now. When her father demanded I protect her, it was a second chance – a shot at redemption. Controlling Lindsay as she seeks revenge on the monsters who hurt her won’t be hard. Containing my own out-of-control feelings for her will be. Even harder than admitting what really happened that night.
Turns out there was a second video from that awful night. Mine wasn’t the only tape. Too bad mine wasn’t the worst. Drew can’t protect me no matter how hard he tries, but the roles are flipped now. Three men think they’re above the law. They’re right. But I’m willing to go beneath the law to make sure they never harm anyone else. When you have nothing left to lose because someone took it all away, you create the most dangerous creature imaginable. Me.
Game over.
