It began with a stolen almost-kiss. And ended in revenge. She was never supposed to cross my path. She was never supposed to know about the oaths I swore or the secrets I keep. But like a thief in the night, she took my heart and ran… even if she wasn't mine to possess. As a member of the billionaire Elite, I live by simple tenets. A gentleman above all. Loyalty is everything.. Secrets whispered are never revealed. And power is king.

I have a dirty mouth. That's the truth. Women love it. And I have no plans on changing. Why would I? I like my life. The women, the partying, the fun. Until I meet my new neighbor. She's messing with my good thing. She's annoying, and persistent, and a pain in the . . . well you get the idea. She's also gorgeous, and smart . . . and completely immune to me. And now she needs my help with a little Ex payback and I'm more than happy to lend my expertise.

You've heard the rumors . . . Yes, they're all true. The women . . . the bank account . . . the really big . . . Okay, I'm getting ahead of myself. I'm just saying, there's a reason some call me Mr. Big. But none of it will matter to her. I've known her since we were kids. And she's just as off limits now as she was then. She's my best friend's little sister and when he asked me to give her the grand tour, he did not mean of my bedroom.

It was supposed to be a simple job. Go to the Winston Isles, stand in for my billionaire double for a few weeks. But between the kidnapping attempt and accidentally falling in love with my bodyguard, things have been far from simple. The good news, at least now the woman I love knows who I really am. The bad news is, no one else knows and someone is still trying to kill me. I came to the Winston Isles to save my mother's life, now I've got so much more than I bargained for.

It was supposed to be a simple job . . . Go to the Winston Isles, they said. Be a double for a billionaire, they said. Well nothing is ever simple.

For her I risked it all, but was it worth her paying the price? She knows my secret. Now, what will she do to protect it and the crown? What will I be willing to do to protect her? That answer is easy . . . everything.

Unlike my conniving brother, I have no designs on the throne. Let better men rule. I'm happy to let better men rule-I've never pretended to be a good man. I've been in exile, but no longer. I'm finally going home. This time, no one can keep me away. Not Ariel, the woman I left behind. Not the killer on my tail. Hell, not even my cousin-the king-can stop me. But I do have a score to settle. Everything's going just fine until Ariel is assigned to my protection detail. She will ruin everything, and probably enjoy doing it. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

I'm no knight in shining armor. My suit is tarnished. It was a mistake to lie to Neela, but I had no choice. Protecting her and her baby has become more than a job to me. It's personal. But she'll never trust me again now—and I can't blame her. Our relationship was a house of cards that came tumbling down when she discovered the truth. Luckily for me, she can't fire me. We're stuck together, at least for as long as the threat remains. And I plan to use every second to convince her we belong together.
