About This Book
Layla Kennedy is a master at hiding. Since the age of 14, she's been hiding behind a veil of mental illness. Her racing thoughts, unpredictable behavior, possessive, compulsive issues and panic attacks are, for the most part, controlled by an assortment of medications…that is, when she takes them. On Halloween night, Layla walks a tightrope that lands her in hot water…she impulsively shares a night with a handsome brother in a pirate's costume.
Jordan Scott, attorney, is immediately captivated by the mysterious Bad Cinderella who danced her way into his room, but like Cinderella, she slipped away into the night. Unable to forget the beautiful woman, Jordan is left speechless a month later when he spots her sitting across the courtroom….she's the paralegal to his nemesis at another law firm.
Layla sees him, too. Those lips, that chin, that body…it ‘s him! It's the worst possible thing that could happen because she's in no position, mentally, to get involved with any man.
Unknowingly, Layla and Jordan soon become entrapped in a well-staged plan of blackmail. Unveiling their secrets brings heartache, but ultimately becomes the catalyst for their survival.
