Five weeks ago, Carly Drake stood over her grandfather's grave. Now she is burying one of Drake Trucking's best drivers, and the police have no leads about the theft or murder. Carly's company is on the verge of bankruptcy, she herself receives threatening phone calls and, fearing failure, is forced to cooperate with the last person to whom she would like to be beholden - Lincoln Kane. Kane is an attractive, powerful man who likes to control everything... and hides it one secret. He promised Carly's grandfather to protect her. The old man believed in him when he was just a boy with a criminal record, and now he is a multimillionaire and the owner of a competing company. But Link’s money is not able to protect Carly from a man who will do everything to destroy her and the secrets of Drake Trucking. If she doesn't sell the company to Link, the only way to keep her safe is to keep her as close as possible... and fight to the death.18+
