It was only fair since he''d been taking her stories for the last six months. But when a heated argument with Alastair turns into a toe-curling interlude, she''s shaken to her core. Alastair Halliday left Great Britain to make a name for himself in America, but he didn''t come to the Den for a story. Working for years in a dog-eat-dog environment, with insane hours, has left him needing something a little less refined and ambitious...something that will feed his kink. The Den''s winter masquerade ball will allow him to be anyone, someone whose work won''t get in the way of something simple and primal. That is until he kisses Zora, his most tempting rival. When the weekend is over and the masks come off, will they go back to being enemies or will they stay lovers?
