Official synopsis Publisher
?”I always enjoyed the broken in the fairy tales better. The apple always looked shinier because I knew it could destroy me.”
Hard, cold, and calculated, Trent Rexroth rarely speaks, and when he does, it’s with disdain. When he does, Edie Van Der Zee’s stomach flips and her world tilts on its axis. But when he does, his words aren’t meant for her.
He is thirty-three. She is eighteen. He’s a single dad and Edie’s father’s business partner. She’s a high school senior and his enemy’s daughter. Even without any of that, Trent is emotionally unavailable–and yet, when Edie comes to intern at his office, she finds herself feeling everything she shouldn’t for him.
But the two of them are doomed from the start. The writing isn’t just on the wall–Edie’s father wants dirt on Trent to cut him out of their business, and is blackmailing Edie into getting it for him. She’s lying, stealing, plotting Trent’s downfall, all the while fighting the forbidden heat between them.
She can’t stay away. And as it turns out, neither can Trent.
A scandal is the last thing the Van Der Zee family needs. But a scandal is exactly what Edie’s going to give them.
