Book Description:
Riviera Benson’s past has been nothing but horrific. It’s filled with secrets that she intends to keep tightly locked away...terrifying secrets that keep her awake at night...that prevent her from getting close to anyone...anyone that is, until her work as a muralist drives her into the arms of the hot and sexy Shan.
Benjamin Shandon, owner of Shandon Homes, works like a thousand demons are chasing him...because perhaps they are. His business has boomed, ever since the forest fire swept through the canyon and destroyed hundreds of million dollar homes. He demands excellence in everything...from his employees to his women. He slows down for nothing, keeping a schedule that no sane person would want. But Riviera interrupts everything, twisting his guts inside out, and wedging her way into his heart, destroying a promise he made to himself.
Will they let their pasts control their future, or will they decide to let go and allow their hearts to discover each other’s?
Riviera
Shan’s figured it out…why I’m such a mess. Or rather he thinks he has. And to his credit, he has it half right. The part about Jasper abusing me anyway. I want to tell him everything. I really do. For whatever reason, he makes me feel like I can spill my guts. But there’s that part of me that holds back…because if I tell him, he’ll know how filthy I am. The kind of life I’ve had…where I come from.
And Jasper’s only part of it. What will he do when he finds out I was homeless, and lived like those people you see on TV or in the movies? And then there’s all that other stuff I can’t stomach thinking about. Right now I feel like my entire body’s in a trash compactor.
