"We all see what we want to see. And we expect our assumptions to play out accurately in real life."

Constantine “Con” Leahy had a hard start to life but his circumstances changed after being adopted by a wealthy family, he never fit into this new bracket of society growing up and wore an attitude to keep people away. Through this, he always had eyes on one blonde in the corner of his eye, Vanessa, who he always saw as out of his league. She was born into money and is from a well-recognised family in New Orleans. One night when they are adults Con and Vanessa end up in bed together, both drunk but by dawn she has left, and Con cannot remember anything that happened. Two years later, Vanessa walks into his tattoo shop, Voodoo, asking for him to donate her a project as he owns a portion of land that her family’s corporation needs to attain to build their new headquarters.


Vanessa Frost, remembers everything from the night she spent with Con and has to keep a level head when she finds out that the architect who designed the new headquarters for her family’s headquarters went over their boundary into someone else’s property… it just so happens that the owner of the land is Con. Vanessa is pushing herself to manage this project as she feels that this is her opportunity to show how committed she is to wanting to run the corporation when her uncle retires. Vanessa has always had a thing for Con, through high school she was intrigued by the facade that he put up by pushing everyone away, but her family has always pushed her, even blackmailing her into seeing other men that they feel are too their standards, not Constantine Leahy.


When Con says that he will only consider giving her what she needs for her project does she get to see that side of him that makes her fall even more; helping keep underprivileged kids out of street gangs by running clubs after school, weekends and holidays. This is where the book really takes off in how these two are connected on so many levels. With sprinkles of spice, blackmail, ink, boxing, cooking and more, this book has everything so layers it tickles all my fancies when I cannot pick what I want to read and is always on my re-read shelf when I am in between books.
