I am desperate and on the verge of poverty. And then Lockwood Construction rolls into my small town with an offer too good to refuse: a high salary for any able-bodied man who wants to join their team. Not another word! Wearing baggy clothes and tucking my long hair under a baseball cap, I apply for a job. Unfortunately, my half-baked disguise as a guy was doomed to failure from the very beginning. As Shakira says, “These thighs don't lie.” And yet I like to think that I could have pulled it all off if not for one “but.” I know my boss. We met at a bar a month ago, and, apparently Apparently, after we meet, we are destined to become enemies. Ethan Stone is ruthless and arrogant. A man I would have avoided if I had known how much he loved to play with his prey. He should have just fired me and been done with it. But instead, Ethan decides to make me his personal slave. Oh yeah, these days it's called being a helper. It's pure torture. It's all his bad attitude, the grimaces on his perfect face, his desire to grind me into powder. Each of our battles flares up more than the previous one. It's all too much for a girl. I'm about to burn out. My goal? Beat the heat so I can send home my paycheck. My real goal? Stop fantasizing about my heartless boss.
