All That Glitters by Brooke Harper

The spotlights are blinding.
The dresses sparkle.
The cameras roll, but nothing is real.
Nothing, that is, but him.

I grew up in the Hollywood spotlight, the daughter of movie royalty. Since a young age, I was deemed a natural talent. A rising starlet. I had dreams and a path set ahead of me.
Until a plane crash ruined everything.
In my darkest hour, I had no choice but to rely on the one man who’s always been by my family’s side: Marcus Ortega—my parents’ closest friend turned agent and protector, and who is now, reluctantly, my new caretaker.
With a dangerous past steeped in crime, he’s ruthless, cutthroat, and incredibly sexy, despite being almost twice my age.
It’s well known that Marcus never wanted to watch over a “spoiled brat” like me, but I’m starting to think there’s another reason for his distance. A secret that could shatter us both.
He’s in control of my money, my career, and my life until my trust fund says I can be free. It may be what I wanted once upon a time, but in a world where the things that glitter aren’t always gold, I’m desperate for something real.
Real and destructive like him.
