Abyss

There are many reasons I should have handed in my resignation the day I met my new boss, Hudson Case.

First off, he's the reason I lost my first waitressing job. Secondly, he's gruff, grumpy, and another inconvenient g-word . . . gorgeous.

And to top it off, he's my good friend's dad.

Oh, and did I mention, he's also my new roommate? Yeah, we'll get to that in a sec.

It all started when I begged my friend to get me a temp position working as her dad's admin until my big move at the end of summer. Little did I know, her dad was the same jerk who callously fired me from my previous waitressing gig.

He says I'm a walking migraine and a thorn in his side. So when I threaten to quit, why does his counteroffer include me moving in with him for business reasons?

But before we know it, we're mixing business with pleasure.

A lot of pleasure.

Suddenly nothing feels temporary anymore. But it has to be, right?

Because one way or another, our time together is coming to an end.
