Cherish

I thought I only had a stalker until someone tried to kill me. Now I have two problems. I don't know who wants me dead. And what do I do with the body?As an up-and-coming designer in L.A., I've gotten used to upsetting people. That's where my father's money comes in handy. I can afford to ignore all the right people and focus—because I have a strict time line. But when I anger the wrong person, someone comes after me who isn't interested in cutting out patterns. Which is what I was doing with sharp scissors when the attack happened. I know how to wield a pair of shears.Another intruder barrels through the door, but he doesn't want to hurt me, and he won't tell me how he knows there was a hit out on me. He says I have to leave. With him. I've always stood my ground, but Kase Donovan is bigger, stronger, and more determined. He drags me away from everything I've worked for, and I hate to admit—I don't put up much resistance. Staying could cost me my life, and I have to make my career a success or that money Father gave me won't save me from an old marriage contract. But being with Kase could corrupt me even worse.*Cherish was originally published as the duet Corrupted and Cherished.
