Breaking Spades — W. Ferraro

Cecille “CeCe” Cervetti lives her life by one rule: Never let a man control her heart, ever again. CeCe has built a life to be proud of--she's successful in business, and in lust. Men are her playground, to take from, and use to her body's content. They can only have what she is willing to give, so don't try asking for more. When an unknown stalker raises the stakes, ripping away her hard won control, CeCe reluctantly seeks help from the first, and last, man she gave her heart to before he vanished from her life--Jarod Gates. As they struggle to unmask the stalker, CeCe and Jarod learn of each other's scarred pasts -- scars that made them who they are today. But when her body screams for Jarod's touch, can CeCe manage to keep her control? Or will Jarod make her question the one rule she's built her life on?
