LIZ:
I was a foster kid who ran away at sixteen to live on the streets. It's all I've ever known, until I meet him, Lincoln Barkley, Playboy Extraordinaire. He's the owner of the mansion I work at, and everyone says to stay away from him, that he runs through women like kids eat candy.
But I can't help it. There's a connection drawing us together and I'm hypnotized by him. My heart and my brain war with each other, one pulling him close, while the other pushes him away.It's only a matter of time until I do the one thing that comes most naturally to me.
RUN.
LINCOLN:
My life was empty of all meaning until I met her. And now, Liz is my everything. She's the answer to every question, and the very reason I keep breathing.
But she has trust issues like no one I've ever met before. I can tell she's seconds away from leaving, pushing me away so she doesn't get hurt. What she doesn't understand is, I'll never hurt her. I'm her protector now and I'll be damned if a hair on her head gets hurt, by anyone or anything.
Because the moment I saw her, she became
MINE.
