Bracing The Storm is LIVE!

The guy I just met at the mansion I inherited from a complete stranger?
He's drop-dead gorgeous. Sexy. And rude with a Capital R.
Turns out he's not the hot gardener as I wrongly assumed.
He's not only a famous rockstar who grew up in the house, he's also ready to fight for it. And being both hot-headed and Irish, he's going to fight hard and dirty.
I'm not moving out. Full Stop.
But neither is he.
So we agree on some simple rules.
We'll play roommates for a while.
What could possibly go wrong?
Living together with an Irish Hothead will surely cause a major storm. Let's hope bracing that storm won't turn into a hurricane.
**EXCERPT**
“What your lawyer’s been building up the courage to tell you is that you have a huge problem on your hands.”
I shake my head, unsure where the hell he’s heading. “And what is that? Vermin? Mold in the walls? Care to be more specific?”
“Me,” Patrick says coolly.
“Call me if you need anything. I’ll be in touch,” Duncan mutters. “It was nice meeting you, Lori.” The door opens and closes with a soft thud. I can sense Patrick and I are alone, but my mind can’t quite comprehend it because the huge house is suddenly too small for the both of us and I’m having trouble sucking air into my lungs.
“You,” I say, “as in, you’re my problem?”
“I believe those were my words,” he says with a smirk. “Do you need me to explain them to you? I’m not going anywhere.”
I blink as I try to make sense of what he’s telling me.
A disgruntled employee who doesn’t want to leave the premises?
That should be interesting.
“You’re going to be a huge problem, huh? We’ll see about that, pal.” I take out my phone and before he knows what’s happening I’ve taken a picture of him. And then another, just in case.
He frowns. “What are you doing?”
“I’m taking a picture for the police records. As far as I remember, I fired you this morning, yet you’re still here.” I raise my chin, ready to stare him down if need be. Just because I’m the new boss, he can’t test my boundaries. He can’t be a jerk and get away with it.
“You still think I’m your employee?” His eyes glitter with challenge. “My name is Patrick Walsh. I’m the rightful owner of this house, and your hot arse is trespassing.”
