Dead as well, but he's the reason nobody knows my big brother died twenty-five years ago. They think I died. They think I'm him. For most of my life, I have posed as my brother. I've shed everything that naturally came to me and embraced the life of a man. It's the only way, I was told. To keep and save everything my family has built over generations. The only price? My identity. My sanity. Then she came along. An intern named Natalie. A man like Eric isn't supposed to fall in love with his interns. It's bad enough his ex-fiancée is his personal assistant. But an intern? An unknown quantity who doesn't know the truth? A woman like Erica would definitely fall in love with Natalie, a woman who will either set me free... or destroy me. Do I follow my heart and embrace this vivacious, brilliant woman who claims to want to know every dark part of me while risking everything I've ever known? Or do I follow my head and continue to live the lie I was thrust into as a child? If I'm telling you this, we already know which path I chose.
