Arin Ovis is a billionaire heir and an infamous Olympic swimmer. He has everything anyone could ever need in life - so why has he exiled himself on his private island in the tropics?

She’s been granted a rare interview by Arin, and she has three days on his private island to get the story of a lifetime. But will she get more than she bargained for on this tropical trip? When she’s around the intensely handsome athlete, sports are the last thing on her mind… “What led to the moment when you punched JJ Martinez?” I asked. My throat nearly constricted around those words. “You went from our nation’s hero to…frankly, an embarrassment.” The Zodiac Series is a series of loosely connected novellas that can be read in any order.
