Espionage is a dangerous business. Reputations can be ruined, companies destroyed, and your darkest secrets revealed.

Success that puzzled her more when it became obvious Everett Bolton knew nothing about the industry. Fashion was a game to him. To Aliya it was everything. But there are some secrets that shouldn’t be uncovered, and when Everett’s world crashes hard into hers, Aliya might need to rely on the one person she really shouldn’t trust. Who said fashion wasn’t a dangerous business?
