Kara is ready to kill her boss, Max. She also wants him so badly it’s making her nuts. He’s a workaholic, and finds ways to keep her on the job late, ruining any love life she could have. Plus, he’s never shown the least bit of interest in her and that’s how she wants it, right? Maybe. Things change when their plane crashes on their way to a meeting, leaving them stranded on a deserted island. Kara decides to start taking what she wants in life. Max.

Max has wanted Kara since he hired her. He’s seen her anger at him for keeping her close and knows she hates his guts. So any thought of asking her out or getting intimate is out the window. She‘d flat out reject him. He’s sure of it. After their crash, Max decides he’s tired of hiding his desires. Their passions ignite on the virgin sands, burning hot. Oh, so hot.

Discovering an international drug operation on the other side of the island, Max and Kara become targets of a cartel that wants their secret location kept secret. And dead men don’t talk. After being rescued and back in the States, an attempt is made on Kara’s life, nearly killing her. Max thinks the cartel has found them but soon figures out the danger is much closer to home than anyone could’ve ever suspected.
