Krystina Cole was a girl on a
mission. She had big dreams and aspirations, none of which included a man by
her side. She knew better than that – at least until she met Alexander Stone,
the New York billionaire real estate tycoon. She saw the way that he looked at
her, and the dark promises in his eyes. She was curious about his world and all
that it entailed. But the shadows of her past haunted her, making her afraid to
explore possibilities that she could never before have imagined…
Alexander Stone was a man who knew how to get what he wanted. He understood the value of finesse, and the importance of patience and diligence to achieve the desired result. He was successful and wealthy, relying on his naturally sharp instincts to guide him through life. But a chance run in with Krystina Cole quickly turned his world upside down. Her quick wit and firecracker attitude was the complete opposite of what he wanted in a woman, and his instincts failed him at every turn…
However, both Krystina and Alexander are clinging to the secrets in their past, and neither of them are willing to compromise. Krystina’s hardened heart makes emotional surrender a hard limit. But for Alexander, revealing his past could have devastating results.

Dakota Willink is a
contemporary romance writer and editor, and the author of The Stone Series. She
is an associate member of Romance Writers of America.
She has always had a
passion for reading and writing. From the time she was an adolescent, she
enjoyed curling up with a good paperback, reading genres that ranged from
thriller and fantasy, to mystery and romance. She always dreamed of one day
writing her own book, but had put her aspirations on hold to focus on her
family and a career that would pay the bills.
Although she earned a degree in business and had built a solid reputation in retail sales, her heart continued to be with fictional characters - whether they belonged to a favorite author or if they were just stories that she made up in her own head.

In 2013, Dakota gathered
enough courage to turn her dreams into a reality. In between playing chauffeur
to two very busy children and working her job during the day, Dakota began to
put words on paper. Eventually, she began to describe her life as a book.
Everything she saw or heard throughout the day, intertwined with her
imagination for the creation of future writings. By 2014, with the support of
her husband and two children, she gave up the security of a steady paycheck and
began working on her first novel full time.
Dakota Willink is a lover of music, and appreciates the power and stimulating effect it can have on the brain. She often uses lyrics and melodies to help her through bouts of writers block. At the end of her novel, you can find an authors note that recognizes and thanks the artists that gave her inspiration.

Labrador Retrievers, and her spoiled rotten cat. During the summer months, she
