Luke
I fell in love with Laura months ago, but she's determined to be "free" and not fall for anyone who might take over her life. I’ll admit, as a billionaire, a CEO and the oldest of five brothers, I'm prone to being bossy, but I don't want to keep her under my thumb. I want her under me in the best possible, most pleasurable way. Because regardless of what she might think, she's mine and I'm hers. I knew it in an instant. Now, I just need to bring her onboard with it.
Laura
Luke Malloy is the most dangerous man I've ever met: handsome, smart, powerful, dominating. It's the last characteristic that frightens me. On the run from my domineering father, who wants to force me into an arranged marriage to a man I’ve never even met, I’m desperate to find the freedom to live my life on my own terms. No matter how much I want Luke, I’m afraid I may fall under his control and lose the only thing I’ve had to cling to all my life: Myself.

Prologue
~ Luke ~
I stood next to my brother, Chase, on the happiest day of his life, his wedding day to Emerson. I’m sure the entire crowd there noticed the scowl on my face. I didn’t care how I looked. I was too busy glaring daggers at Emerson’s maid of honor, Laura Moretti.
It kind of shocked me she’d actually risked showing up at this wedding. She’d been running from me, and everyone else, for a month and now she was trapped on a boat with me for the weekend. And there was no way I’d let her get away again.
When she’d broken off her joke of an engagement to a man she’d never met, I’d been very clear with her that she was to immediately come to my family in Las Vegas for protection. But she hadn’t come. And I’d been worried sick about her.
As much as I teased Chase about falling in love with Emerson the first time he’d seen her, I’d been a total hypocrite. Though I wasn’t totally convinced I was in love with Laura, I was utterly fascinated by the exotic beauty currently glaring daggers at me across the aisle.
Even though she was standing just feet from me, it may as well have been an ocean away. I hadn’t seen her until she was walking down the aisle in front of Em, who I’m sure looked beautiful, but I hadn’t been able to focus on anyone but Laura.
Her black hair shone in the sunlight streaming through the windows in the ship’s cathedral and the mauve bridesmaid dress she wore was low cut in the front, slit high on the side and hugged every single one of her delicious curves. She looked so damn sexy, I’d had to hold my hands in front of my crotch to hide the interest she instilled in my body.
She was here. And she couldn’t be more captive than on a ship in the middle of the ocean. Once the ceremony was over, I planned to drag her to my room and… Well, I wasn’t sure what the what was yet. Half of me wanted to put her over my knee and give her a world of hurt for scaring me. Except, she wasn’t mine to worry about.
Yet.
A sharp nudge to the ribs brought me out of my inner diatribe.
“Can you maybe wait until after I’m actually married to drag Laura to bed?” Chase growled into my ear. “You’re a terrible best man.”
“Sorry,” I whispered.
“Give me the fucking ring,” he whispered back.
I fought a blush as I pulled Em’s wedding band from my pocket and handed it to my brother. When I looked up at Laura again, she was hiding behind her bouquet, but I could tell she was smiling at my mistake.
Her grin vanished when she caught my narrowed gaze across the aisle. I didn’t know what was happening to me. I didn’t believe in love at first, or second, sight. In fact, I’d teased Chase mercilessly as he’d pined for Emerson after their first encounter. But look at them now. Getting married, starting the rest of their lives together.
Could you really know you wanted someone forever before you really knew anything about them? As I gazed at Laura again, I started to believe if maybe you could.
Finally, Chase and Emerson were announced properly wed, and they headed up the aisle together. I strode over to Laura and took her arm in mine. I’d forgotten how much smaller than me she was. Even in heels she barely came to my shoulder. I had to stoop to murmur in her ear.
“I hope you’re not planning on running off again.”
“First
