He's the Beast...and he's her only hope. When I first met Bella, I thought she was a call girl. She was in my home, touching my things, tempting me with her see through dress and siren voice. But, now I know she's a cupcake baker. She's also homeless, jobless, and on the run. And me, I'm her last hope. They call me the Beast. Billionaire, inventor, scarred ex-military, and cold as ice. I won't let anything tempt me. Except...Bella's taunted me with her frosting one too many times. She says it's creamy, sweet, lickable--and that each bite delivers a happily ever after. I warn her--don't tempt the Beast, unless you're prepared for his bite. She doesn't know it yet, but I'm never letting her go.
