Meet Jackson McKay…
There’s only one thing you need to know about me. I’m a cold hearted bastard that will never love you the way you deserve. And I’m sorry to say, bastard beats nice guy, every time.
I never lie. Never deceive. I lay out exactly what will happen. My only promise is that I’m a one-night stand. That this is will be our first and last time together. Then I stand back and let them walk. But they never do. Because they all want to believe they will be the one to change me.
And, Gwen Johnson, the woman that will be his demise…
There’s only one thing you need to know about me. What I want, I get. End of story. I didn’t come to own one of the best restaurants in the city of Chicago before the age of thirty by taking no for an answer. And what I want is for this cold hearted bastard, and culinary genius, to work for me. I don’t care how difficult he is. I’m going to figure out what makes him tick, what he needs most, and then I’m going to go in for the kill.
The way I see it, you either own it, or it owns you…

I thoroughly enjoyed this intense, sexually charged story about Jackson and Gwen. From the moment they meet, they are irresistibly attracted to each other, even though they try to fight the attraction. They are meant to be together and are a perfect match for each other.Β

Gwen seeks Jackson out because she wants him as the head chef for her newest restaurant. When Jackson refuses, Gwen makes it her mission to convince him to change his mind. Gwen has never met anyone like Jackson before and she can’t seem to help herself from falling for him. She knows she is making the wrong decisions but she is drawn to him and just can’t stay away. Jackson is a good guy on the inside. He is loyal and protective and willing to sacrifice himself for those he loves.Β Β

I enjoyed this entertaining story about Jackson and Gwen. I liked both characters and found it easy to connect to them. From the moment the first meet, they are drawn to each other. They feel like they are discovering their soulmate, their missing piece. Everyone can feel the sparks flying when they are together and they have an intensely sexual relationship. However, there are secrets and issues to work through before they can be together.Β  I enjoyed taking the journey with them and you will too.
