Most of us know what it feels like to be stabbed in the back by the person you loved most.
But were you the one to hand them the knife?
I was.
I’ve always been an ambitious woman, but my ex was even more ambitious and built his career on all of my achievements. He took my work—right from under me—and I couldn’t do a single thing about it.
Now I have to start over.
All I want to do is focus on work, but then there’s this guy…
Slade. Six-Foot-Something, muscular, covered in tattoos and pierced in several places, with an ego even bigger than his arrogance.
Nope. Not doing that again.
I focus on my career and won’t let him distract me.
But he does distract me—a lot.
Slade:
“No.”
That’s what she said to me, point-blank, her eyes as steady as my fist in the boxing ring.
First time that’s ever happened.
I would just forget about her and move on, but now she’s really got my attention.
The first woman to ever say no to me…quite the honor.
In all my attempts to change her mind, I realize something…
I actually like her.
A lot.
Now I really can’t take no for an answer.
