Once, I would never have imagined myself here. But I’m settled now. In a place I love, in a home I renovated, spending time with new friends I adore, and working a job that fulfills me. I am reconciling the past and laying the groundwork for the future. Then Garrett Frost moves in next door. He’s obstinate and too bold, a raging force of nature that disrupts the careful order of my life. I recognize the ghosts that haunt him, the torment driving him. 

Lei è Eva Tramell, giovane neolaureata che sta per iniziare il suo primo lavoro in un'importante agenzia pubblicitaria a Manhattan. Lui è Gideon Cross, carismatico e affascinante uomo d'affari, proprietario dell'agenzia e del lussuoso palazzo in cui entrambi lavorano. Quando si incontrano, l'attrazione tra loro è istantanea e irresistibile, di quelle che non lasciano scampo. Gideon desidera Eva sopra a ogni cosa, ma rifiuta qualunque coinvolgimento sentimentale, perché non vuole mescolare sesso e amore.

Nonostante le difficoltà del loro rapporto, Gideon Cross, bello e perfetto fuori ma tormentato dentro, ed Eva Tramell, come lui con un passato doloroso alle spalle, sono ancora insieme. Lei è sempre più innamorata, non riesce a stargli lontano e anche lui pare contraccambiare, anche se l'ombra di una sua ex amante continua a suscitare la gelosia di Eva e numerose incomprensioni tra i due. Eva è convinta che tra loro non potrà mai funzionare, ma non riesce a sottrarsi al desiderio incontrollabile e all'amore disperato che li legano.

All I ever wanted was to play ball. When an act of sheer stupidity took that dream away, I thought I’d never bounce back. But now, I have the opportunity to coach an up-and-coming phenom, and I'm giving it all I've got. The fact that I've been lusting after his smoking-hot sister only sweetens the deal. Emerson may be buttoned up like a school librarian, but I play my best when I’m under pressure...and I always bring the heat.

Bailey entretient depuis de nombreuses années une grande amitié avec Vincent, un aspirant pharmacien brillant et inhibé. Leur relation est mise à rude épreuve quand la jeune universitaire s’éprend de Sean, un étudiant en médecine fort séduisant. Jaloux, Vincent tente alors d’avouer à Bailey qu’il est amoureux d’elle et met tout en œuvre pour discréditer Sean, qu’il considère comme un bad boy manipulateur.

Never mix business with pleasure. Never bring politics into the bedroom. In a way I did both when I took Jackson Rutledge as a lover. I can't say I wasn't warned. Two years later, he was back. Walking into a deal I'd worked hard to close. Under the tutelage of Lei Yeung, one of the sharpest businesswomen in New York, I had picked up a thing or two since Jax walked away. I wasn't the girl he once knew, but he hadn't changed. Unlike the last time we'd drifted into each other's lives, I knew exactly what I was dealing with...and how addictive his touch could be.

Like the old saying goes, I’m a jill of all trades but a master of none. What I lack in skill, however, I make up for in enthusiasm - something certain people (ahem) find irritating. But I have my reasons for living my life the way I do, for diving into one project after another and trying to make a difference. And if Mark Beckett doesn’t like it, he knows where to find the door. I don’t need his approval...or his panty-melting kisses.
