Emile Walker led a quiet life. His computers, his peaceful space, and the occasional dinner with his brother were all he needed. But ever since he hired Keyiara Ortiz Rodriguez as his weekly massage therapist, Emile couldn't help but seek her vibrant, boisterous company.

Keyiara "Kiki" Rodriguez liked her life to be unpredictable and full of excitement. Her client in Brooklyn was the odd quiet time in her week. She didn't like introspective men, so why was she so intrigued by his serious demeanor and reserved manner?

When Kiki elicits a rising in Emile's interest, it leads to the sweetest weekend together, but will their differences come roaring back after they leave the cocoon of their 48 hours of passion?
