After struggling with the loss of yet another person so dear to her heart, Mia Sullivan channeled her frustration and loneliness into focusing on her future career. At the top of her class at Harvard Law, she was nervous and excited when given the opportunity to work as a summer extern at one of the top firms in Boston. Her new boss was the young, extraordinarily handsome, and successful Marcus DeLuca. As she falls for his charms, she discovers he is keeping something from her.
Marcus DeLuca was living two separate lives: one that involved his successful career and the other that could potentially ruin his entire reputation. His secret could jeopardize not only his life but everyone he loves. There was no room in his life for a serious romantic relationship, but after meeting Mia, he makes room. He cannot resist her. She is innocent, humble, and pure—the total opposite of him. She distracts him from all of his deep dark secrets. He knows once Mia finds out the things he has done and who he truly is, she will never want to look at him again. Deep down he knows he must stay away, but he can’t.
Mia and Marcus are heading down a path of love, lies, heartbreak, and betrayal. Can their love conquer all, or will the web of deceit be too much to overcome?

***************
This book was heart wrenching!
So not a lot of hot steamy sex but that was ok because there was so much else going.
It was getting a bit silly with every time Marcus did something off the normal sweet path she would melt down and when Jimmie finally explain things I was sure there was no way she could not go running back to him even know the situation was heart wrenching with his "friend" and behavior he certainly had an excuse but Mia just couldn't let that go. You will have to see if they finally make their way back to each other. The ending was good but there were so many loose ends and hints of other things to come it certainly left me craving more (not sure there is a book I have read that doesn't leave me craving more!) at least Author E.L. Montes will be giving me more come May with Cautious the second book in the Disastrous series.
Quotes:
" 'I want to date.' Marcus said. 'see where it goes. I've never dated before, and I don't know how it works, but you're the kind of girl that a man should treat like a woman, nat as a one-night stand.' "
"No one ever knows a person right away. You could be with someone for ten years and learn something new about them. People are always changing. Don't let that scare you."
"I love you, but I'm scared."
"That's what love is....it's scary not knowing what's expected, but I know it'll be the best frightening love we've ever had."
