Gorgeous billionaire venture capitalist Alexander Drakos immerses himself in the work of his vast empire after a devastating tragedy causes him to reassess his playboy lifestyle and easygoing, self-centered existence. While in Apple Valley, Florida on business, he meets a woman who manages to capture his attention, and could very well capture his heart.

Karena "Kari" Grant is the young, African-American owner of a struggling cleaning service, and the single parent of a precocious fourteen-year-old son. Her world turns upside down when her ex, mob fixer Vito Visconni, returns from a long prison stint vowing to get his family back, and when her son falls prey to an unspeakable horror. Kari turns to Alex for help, and Alex discovers, for the first time in his life, what to love unselfishly looks and feels like.

In the first book of the Alex Drakos interracial romance series, Alex and Kari must face down demons that threaten their budding romance, and mobsters and enemies that threaten their very lives.
