Aidan
Surf.
Fuck.
Get high.
Sounds like the perfect day to Aidan Callahan. As second-born son to Chicago’s most influential business owner, Aidan’s life has always been about responsibility. Tradition. Toeing the goddamn line. Just do as you’re told, Aidan. Don’t make waves.
Well, screw that. Riding waves is way more fun than making them.
Hawaii is paradise on earth. Smoking hot women. Tiny bikinis. As far as Aidan’s concerned, wild horses couldn’t drag him kicking and screaming back to the windy city. Or at least that’s what he thought.
When his brother crashes his Mercedes, killing himself on impact, Aidan finds himself next in line to the Callahan fortune and all the ties that come with it. And this time there’s no getting out of it.

Essie
A warm bed.
A steady job.
A brother who loves her.
For Essie Gray, life’s been one hard kick in the teeth after another. With her parents both dead, her brother is her only living relative. That is until Vaughn’s truck is written off, his life snatched away by the careless actions of a rich playboy in a flashy sports car.
Now, the only thing that will bring Essie peace is revenge. She must take what was taken from her. Only when the name Callahan has been wiped from the face of the earth forever will she be able to start living again.
Of course, the new head of the Callahan Corporation isn’t what she expected. Aidan’s sexy and sad, and just as damaged as she is. Will she be able to distance herself enough to accomplish her goal?
After all, ruining a man’s really hard when you find yourself falling for him…

Review by Gia:
I absolute loved this story. I loved it from beginning to end. I wasn't the big fan of the prologue but after I finished reading the story, I went back and read the prologue and it made more sense. It's told in the dual POV of Aidan and Essie. I liked the dual POV because it gave me a chance to better know the characters.
Essie and her brother Vaughn are all each of have. They don't have much money but they make things work. They have a really awesome brother sister relationship.
Aidan gave up the chance to work in the corporate world working for the family business. Instead he likes to enjoy life and surf. He doesn't have a great relationship with his brother Alex. He even refuses Alex's request that he come home and help with the family business.
Both Aidan and Essie receive some crazy life altering news. I'm not a person who usually cries when reading books but with this one I got a little more teary eyed then I would have liked. Both deal with the news differently and it shapes the path they take in life and kept me wanting to know what would happen next. Essie has been planning for years what to do when they meet so when their paths cross I didn't know what would happen. I can't wait to read more of Essie and Aidan.
5 Amazeballs Stars!
