Secret Paradise

One night could change everything...

Interior designer Nikki Dupree thought landing a commission on a gorgeous Mediterranean island would be a dream job.

She was wrong.

Her new employer, the reclusive Lucian Kontos, is arrogant, hostile, and determined to make her regret accepting the project. Scarred by a devastating fire that destroyed everything he loved, Lucian has built walls no one can breach-walls designed to keep out pity, kindness, and hope.

But Nikki isn't easily intimidated. Her warmth and fierce spirit begin to crack his defenses, igniting a desire neither of them expected.

As passion flares between them, so does danger. Someone wants Nikki gone-and they'll stop at nothing to drive her away.

Now Lucian faces an impossible choice: protect his wounded heart, or risk everything for the one woman who could heal him... or destroy him completely.
