Fascination by Kim Carmichael

Will the beauty finally calm the beast inside?

Eleven years ago Upton Mandeville lived the perfect life. As the drummer for the world-renowned group, Spectre, he was the penultimate rock star, fabulous, frivolous and fascinating. However, when a freak accident on stage ends his band, his body, and his career, he decides to wield his fortune and power from behind his iron gates and never been seen again.
All Alaine Lemarque wants is a story to tell. When the miser who owns the building housing her family’s boutique publishing company decides to foreclose, she must do whatever she can to save the business and her father.

Taking a chance, she sneaks into the mansion of the man who wants to ruin her family and makes a deal—she will live full-time with him and write his biography in return for the deed on the land to the building. Passions soar as Alaine works to break through the beast’s hard exterior to find the love inside the monster while Upton struggles to do the best thing for her, even if it means sending her away.
