With a hardened heart and a soul filled with darkness, I'm convinced solitude is my only option. Until I meet her.

Hazel has a gentle soul and unwavering principles. She's nothing like the women that frequent my bed. She's a bright light in my shadowed existence. Despite our age difference and the innocence that radiates from her, our mutual chemistry is undeniable. I find myself helplessly drawn to her intoxicating pull.

Yet, I can't allow myself to embrace these feelings. Hazel deserves a life free from the reality of my grim existence.

However, fate has different plans in store.

An unforeseen event unravels the truth of my growing affection for Hazel and the weight of my desire threatens to consume both our worlds.

Haunted by my past I'm faced with an impossible choice. If I walk away then she's safe from my darkness. If I stay, I risk everything, including her. One touch from me could forever shatter her innocent soul.

Author Notes: This is Jareth and Hazel's story: a grumpy/sunshine, workplace romance between a jaded, morally gray billionaire who thinks his soul is too dark to find happiness with his sweet plus-size assistant who believes that love can conquer all. If you read Second Chance for Mr. Alden, a loosely based Aladdin retelling, you may recognize Jareth as the villain of that story.
