I’m a take-no-sh!t kind of girl. I’ve made my own way in this world. And I damn sure don’t need a man to tell me what to do. Especially not a man like Cole Porter.

He’s my driver – he’s supposed to look and keep his f**king hands off the goods. But it doesn’t take long for him to cross the line. And he’s not the type to do things halfway. It won’t be enough for him to taste me, to take me. A man like Cole needs to own his woman completely. I have to admit – I’m terrified. His hands look capable of breaking me. So why is there this little voice in my head… Begging him to do exactly that? I built myself up from nothing. But the second Cole takes me in his arms… I want him to tear me apart.
