Zora is the Knox family's real daughter. After just two months back home, she is completely disheartened. Heartbroken and done, she packs her bags and walks out for good—only to be taken in by the Marlow brothers. Suddenly, she is the beloved center of their world. One of Marlow brothers' closest friends is Leighton: tall, elegant, devastatingly handsome. Zora is a total sucker for pretty faces. When they first meet, she thinks about putting this pretty man in a cage and keeping him. Second meeting? She decides his eyes are so beautiful she wants to find a fancy box to keep them safe. Leighton has never stumbled in his twenty-some years... until he meets his best friend's little sister. On their first meeting, he accidentally traps her in an elevator and earns a look of contempt from her. Before he knows it, he's attending her parent-teacher conferences, tucking her into bed, and standing up for her whenever anyone tries to mess with her... Leighton is confused. How does he end up doing all this? Then one night, he catches her sneaking into a bar. "Will you cut it out? Are you my boss, or am I yours?" he groans, hauling her drunk, squirming body close. "I'm your boss," the cute, dazed girl declares, eyes bright. She pinches his cold cheek, dead serious. "...Fine. You're the boss." Leighton gives in completely.
