What do you get when duplicity is something that you refuse to overlook?A fight that only cares about who's left standing after the bloodshed. MaddoxMaddox Reed wasn't a victim of failure, and he liked it that way. Even if he weren't the youngest son of Ramsey and Emerson Reed, Maddox's incredible mind and ability to hack into any computer system in the world made him a force to be reckoned with. With wealth, power, privilege, status, and charm all working for him, Maddox didn't have any rough days in his life.
When he finds himself exploring the elitist grounds of Windsor Academy late at night, he's not expecting to have a guest, though he's always ready for the unexpected. Knowledge is power, and Maddox always makes it a point to know everything there is to know about the people around him. However, for the first time in his life, things just got personal, and that changes everything. It was all personal with her.
CassidyCassidy Spears wasn't a victim of failure, and she never planned to be. Her parents believed in hard work, and they had raised Cassidy to believe in it, too. Even attending Windsor Academy hadn't changed the way that she viewed the world. Humble, hard-working, kind, respectful, and beautiful, Cassidy's only goal in life was to make something of herself, making her parents proud. When she finds herself exploring the snobby grounds of Windsor Academy late at night, she's not expecting to meet up with Windsor's reigning king.
With an inheritance being the only reason that she's allowed to attend Windsor, Cassidy can't afford to get kicked out of school for breaking and entering. However, committing late night crimes are the least of her worries now. Now she has to worry about him. When power meets desperation, life suddenly becomes a bare-knuckle fight.After his attention is caught in a way that it's never been before, Maddox isn't about to let Cassidy Spears walk away from what he feels for her.
While he's never been in love before, he does have a clear example of what to do when you finally are. Just ask his father and brother. After her attention is caught in a way that she wishes it weren't, Cassidy's self-preservation tells her to stay the hell away from Maddox Reed and to stay far, far away. If he were offering something close to a relationship, that'd be different. However, what he was offering was something completely insane.
Even though Maddox knows that Cassidy doesn't believe him, and Cassidy knows that nothing good can come from agreeing to Maddox's little arrangement, that doesn't change what's already been set in motion. It's not always a victory when you're the only one left standing though. NOTE: This book contains adult language, adult situations, explicit sexual encounters, violence, and sexual impropriety.
