Whimpering, my eyes followed the click sound of the pen in his hand, and he laughed and pocketed it when he saw the direction my eyes had gone.
“There's no need to be scared, little girl. I'll make sure you don't remember anything.”
I shuddered and fingered the pen, the same one I'd just seen in my memory, when the sound of footstep alerted me I was about to be found out.
*****************************************************************************************
Danielle Morgan’s father was murdered—and she’s spent all her life hunting his killer. When a hidden hint in her boss’s office links him to the crime, she makes a bold move: seduce him, marry him, and expose the truth from within.

Jonathan Carter, a guarded young CEO haunted by the suicide of his best friend, never expected to fall for his secretary, as he was just focused on finding out the truth. But Danielle isn’t who she pretends to be… and neither is he.

As passion blurs the lines between justice and betrayal, dark secrets rise—and someone is framing Jonathan for murder.

She wanted revenge.
He wanted justice.
Now, the only thing they might lose… is each other.

I sighed and palmed my head. The head that was unable to think for me. Since I'd entered the office that morning, I'd been thinking, wondering what I could do, yet nothing had come to mind. It had been either nothing or something absolutely ridiculous, like telling my mom the truth. I still stood my ground that if I did that, she really was going to kill me.


I checked my watch and sighed again. It was just about ten minutes to 3 o'clock. The time I'd planned to leave. And there was still no plan in place. Not about my car or the house. Absolutely nothing.
