House Of Payne: Scout - House Of Payne Series, #2

There's no doubt that Scout Upton earned her nickname. From the time she was an orphan bouncing from foster home to foster home like an unwanted stray, she's had an uncanny ability to scout out trouble. Now an integral part of House Of Payne's dominance in the world of ink, her "trouble" alarm triggers every damn time world-renowned fashion photographer, Ivar Fournier, comes around. Former model-turned-photographer, Ivar is notorious for making or breaking supermodels, both on camera and off.
But when it comes to Scout, he can't get a foot in the door. She doesn't buy his charm or his story of wanting to spotlight body art for his next exhibit. Maybe because that's exactly what it is-a story. Despite being born in a world of privilege, there's a terrible darkness behind his practiced smile, and it all stems from a past he needs to understand. Scout holds the key to that mysterious past, and if he has to break her apart to get it, that's exactly what he'll do.
