Second Breath: Dazzled by my Blind Date

I was the one studying him, but he’s the one who saw right through me. “Wow, what a breathtaking story! I’m simply blown away by the depth of emotions the author brought out in this book.” ~Goodreads reviewer KAMA My master’s thesis depends on proving I can get any man to desire me, and then Jedi-mind-trick him into walking away. It’s all about control. I am always in control. My research is my life, a carefully constructed experiment to give women the upper hand in a dating world designed for men. Then he walks in. Dylan Rhodes. A ridiculously hot, smooth-talking lawyer who agrees to be my next subject. He’s the perfect test case: a high-achieving alpha male who’s everything my research is designed to combat. He’s also everything I’ve ever secretly wanted. From our first touch, my carefully controlled world sparks and shorts out. He challenges my every move, dismantles my defenses, and sees the woman I keep hidden behind my research. With him, the lines blur between experiment and reality, and for the first time, I’m not the one pulling the strings. I’m the one becoming entangled. He thinks this is just another date. But he has a secret, one that could destroy not just my thesis, but my entire future. I know I should walk away, but I can’t. Falling for him is professional suicide. But what if the one man hired to ruin me is also the only one who can truly see me? And what if losing control is the only way to find what I’ve been searching for all along?
