I never dreamed of getting married.

My stepfather gets rid of his damaged stepdaughter, and Leon becomes second-in-command of the biggest underground IT operation in the country. I’ll do what I must to escape my fate.
Even if it means turning my powerful and dangerous betrothed into my worst enemy.

Renee’s Five Star Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
This is the first book in the Beauty in Imperfection duology. You should expect a cliffhanger. This is also a dark romance and will contain a cliffhanger since it is first book of a duology.
Leon Hart is a man who has spent three years to developing a software program that is going to make him a partner in the illicit IT Company. Gus, his boss is also the stepfather of Violet and Leon is not afraid to tell him that Violet hill be his. A agreement is made that will benefit both of them. Violet is a girl living with a disability and has her entire life never let it define or or keep her from doing anything she wanted to do. It for sure doesn’t let if define her. But when the one person who means the world her is set up, she has no options but the follow through with the demands that have been made of her. i I have to say that Violet is one strong amazing young lady that you can’t help but admire so many qualities and things about her. I loved her really. She is after all the cleaning lady. She is a girl who has had a lot forced on her and I think that I personally would lose my freaking mind over it at times. Leon is like a puzzle and you have to kind of destroy the puzzle one piece at a time. If that even makes sense Maybe I should have said peeled the layers away like you would do one layer at ta time. I can’t wait to really find out much more about these two. Will they be able to make it or will her dad go back on the deal? Does she ever really want to get married or does she have other plans? You have to read to find out. This is a great book and I can’t wait to have the second on in my hands.
