Literally no one knows, as he fled Chicago almost a decade ago to get away from his father and brother who would’ve drained his bank account and then killed him, the way they did his mother.
But he can’t hide from them forever, and as he gets hints that they’re closing in on Forbidden Lake, Andy has a difficult choice to make: Cut Sami loose so she’s not in danger or tell her the whole truth.

I love billionaire romances and the addition of suspense and adventures made it that much better! I can’t wait for more of this series and then more from this author!
Some people have problems with their families, but this goes too far. Paranoia doesn’t fully describe the feeling Andy lives with day to day for the last 9 years. Fear, suspense, and finally a living nightmare is what Sami finds her life turning into. But the one thing she thinks she has in her corner was Andy. But she finds out she has to rely on her on ingenuity to see another day. Definitely a must read.
Great story and series.
A fast paced story with a reclusive billionaire, his assistant he has cared about for quite a while and his family who wants him dead. When he can no longer stop his feelings for his assistant he starts to let his guard down but his family is on the move. He must now come out of his shell and fight back. I received a complimentary copy and I am voluntarily reviewing.
Is falling in love with your boss or employee wrong? I loved Sami and Andy. Watching them go from working together, to friends to so much more was an exciting journey. Loved the suspense and even the edge of your seat drama. Can these two overcome his past?
Andy and Sami have worked together for 8 years. They have secretly crushed on each other for at least 2, but that isn’t Andy’s only secret. Should a work relationship be risked for a love relationship? It should if you feel as strongly as these two. Loved their story and the mystery story line in this one was great. I like how they really had a great relationship as co-workers and Andy really thought very highly of Sami and her abilities, that is a great foundation to make this transition from co-workers to sweethearts believable. Wonderful read, really enjoyed it.
Another great story in the Forbidden Lake Romance Series! Sami has been working for her eccentric boss for eight years when she realizes she may be falling in love with him. Andy has been in hiding from his dangerous family for all of those years and is afraid to allow himself to fall in love and put someone else in danger. Elana Johnson does a masterful job of weaving their story with just the right amount of suspense and romance! Don’t miss this clean, short read!
Why do we think money can solve all problems? Anderson Tanner knew that wasn’t true, so did Sami Adler. True money can help with setting up extreme security measures but sometimes that just isn’t enough. Elena Johnson does a terrific job of writing a story with a touch of humor, a heaping of romance, a dash of danger, all mixed with a interesting plot and well developed characters. This was a fun story to read.
A lightning fast little romantic suspense story. Part psychological thriller and part romance, this was an excellent example of the style. This book has lots of tension and emotion. It was easy to feel the conflict in Andy and Sami as their feelings for one another grew deeper and the danger loomed ever closer. This is an author who writes close-knit families skillfully and I can’t wait to read more about the Addlers and Forbidden Lake.
I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
