Aidan
Surf.
Fuck.
Get high.
Sounds like the perfect day to Aidan Callahan. As second-born son to Chicago’s most influential business owner, Aidan’s life has always been about responsibility. Tradition. Toeing the goddamn line. Just do as you’re told, Aidan. Don’t make waves.
Well, screw that. Riding waves is way more fun than making them.
Hawaii is paradise on earth. Smoking hot women. Tiny bikinis. As far as Aidan’s concerned, wild horses couldn’t drag him kicking and screaming back to the windy city. Or at least that’s what he thought.
When his brother crashes his Mercedes, killing himself on impact, Aidan finds himself next in line to the Callahan fortune and all the ties that come with it. And this time there’s no getting out of it.

Essie
A warm bed.
A steady job.
A brother who loves her.
For Essie Gray, life’s been one hard kick in the teeth after another. With her parents both dead, her brother is her only living relative. That is until Vaughn’s truck is written off, his life snatched away by the careless actions of a rich playboy in a flashy sports car.
Now, the only thing that will bring Essie peace is revenge. She must take what was taken from her. Only when the name Callahan has been wiped from the face of the earth forever will she be able to start living again.
Of course, the new head of the Callahan Corporation isn’t what she expected. Aidan’s sexy and sad, and just as damaged as she is. Will she be able to distance herself enough to accomplish her goal?
After all, ruining a man’s really hard when you find yourself falling for him…

“But right away I can tell Essie is different. There’s a hard look in her eye, and her mouth is set in a thin line that doesn’t waver when I smile at her. I expect her to say I know who you are or I know you’ve been watching me. Maybe eve, I know what you’ve been dreaming about.”

First of all let me just say that I usually don’t read a lot of male authors….but I’m beyond, beyond impressed with Cole St. Jaimes. He’s such a great writer. His characters are so well developed and thoughtout and the storyline was creative and not the same redundant story I’ve read over and over!! So now about the story, Ellie has grown up knowing only her brother as her caretaker, they’ve lived in and out of shelters and barely made it. One fateful night she gets a call from a friend of her brother saying that Vaughn had been in a horrible car accident and didn’t survive, devastated Ellie swore her life was over. Aidan has always grown up in the lap of luxury, but he shunned that life, he wanted no part of his family’s money and ignores his brother, Alex’s, request to come home one weekend. He too, gets a call, his brother and parents were in an accident and all three died, the problem?? His brother caused the accident after falling asleep at the wheel and is essentially the reason Essie’s brother, Vaughn has died as well. Feeling guilty that Essie has lost everything she’s ever known Aiden has spent the last 5 years looking after her and basically lusting after her from afar. The last five years, while being tough for Essie, has been 5 years of plotting revenge against Aiden. She wants him to lose everything precious to him. H@ll bent on revenge, she doesn’t see who Aiden truly is. I won’t go on but this story takes another huge step and it’s intense!!! Ugh I loved this story so much and I can’t freaking wait to see what happens next!!! Great debut novel!!!
