PROLOGUE

How did I get myself into this mess?

I have asked this question to my reflection many times ever since I've crossed paths with Dominic Crossfire. Although I try not to, I can't help but to conjure up his devilishly handsome face in my mind. I ball up my fists in anger and something else... Something else I don't dare to define because if I do, it could potentially mean losing my heart and head.

Only a few days ago in his car, in an attempt to annoy Dominic I had licked cupcake frosting off the side of his jaw as he drove us to his place. Instead of being appalled as I expected him to be, he had the opposite reaction. He pulled over on the shoulder of the highway and crushed his mouth to mine in a passionate kiss. My body was numb with pleasure with his demanding lips on mine. Never in my 24 years of life had I ever experienced a kiss like that. It literally took my breath away.

I know I should be more furious with him, especially since he's basically forcing me to do the most sketchy thing that I ever done. There was dark cloud that hovered over his demands for me to pretend to be his last personal assistant Amelia. It may have sounded harmless, but with the amount of security he's provided me with, I know this impersonation job is more dangerous than he is letting on.

But that kiss... I just couldn't stop thinking about that kiss. It was like he burned my lips with his pent-up passion. And I can't help but to wonder how things between would be us if we had met under different circumstances. If he had just been a regular Joe walking into my coffee shop and we had hit it off from there...

Maybe we'd be dating, who knows? Maybe we could be something more than what we are now...? I couldn't help myself and even began fantasizing about it...
