  When I won the annual Eagle Elite College Scholarship lottery, I was thrilled. After all, my grandma had just died and I wanted to take care of my aging grandpa—he couldn’t be a farmer in Wyoming forever. And graduating from Eagle Elite meant opportunity.

  But I wasn’t counting on meeting Nixon.

  Nor was I counting on the rules of the Elect.

  Do not touch the Elect.

  Do not look at the Elect.

  Do not speak to the Elect.

  And worst of all? Don’t discover the secret they hide, because in the end, you may just realize… it’s about you.

  After his father was put in prison for murder, leaving his mother suicidal, Maddox Cross always put his sister, Laney, first. Now living in Brenton, Virginia, Maddox has no idea what to do with his life, especially since Laney no longer needs him. One thing he does know is for the first time since losing football, he’s found something else that’s just for him—tattooing. When he meets a feisty young woman in the club where he works security, he has no idea that she has the ability to change his life forever.

  Bee Malone has just moved to Brenton to open up her first tattoo parlor, Masquerade. Despite her young success, nothing is ever as it seems. After being kidnapped at a young age, Bee has difficulty being the daughter her parents lost and letting go of the “parents” she was raised with. When she meets Maddox, she’s immediately attracted to him, and what starts out as a one-night stand leaves Bee wanting to connect with him in more ways than one.

  Once Maddox finds out about Masquerade, he wants nothing more than to join Bee. But letting him in means trying to figure out who she is, and she’s not ready for that. And yet, as the two get closer, they find themselves leaning on each other more than they are comfortable with. Will their stubborn nature tear them apart? Or push them closer together?
