Curtis — Kathi S. Barton

Kylie Washington's business is failing and there isn't much she can do about it. Short of living in her car and eating scraps for the rest of her life she has to take the Hunter's offer. She has her father to think of, he made the paper what it was. Curtis has loved Kylie his entire life -- but she loves Daniel. Stepping back from the beauty has been the hardest thing he's ever done. But he will help her and her father even if he has to beat her butt to make it happen. But someone else wants the Washington building too. There is something inside that he wants bad enough to kill for -- even his own father. Vaughan isn't going to take ‘no' for an answer and if Kylie does say it he had already decided to kill her and take it anyway. Kylie and Curtis fight each other at every turn. When one says ‘no' the other says ‘yes'. That is until Vaughan LaMancusa steps into the picture and they work together to keep their families safe. But will it be enough? Will they live happily ever after?
