A summer job. That's all it was supposed to be. It never crossed my mind that I was about to collide with a man who would obliterate every plan I ever made. My mother has always warned me that love is like a lightning bolt and it strikes without warning. But I had no intention of getting struck by either lightning or love anytime soon. I'd be too busy finishing my journalism degree and landing a job in a city far more sophisticated than Phoenix. There was certainly nothing in the cards about getting involved with an ex-ballplayer turned nightclub boss.

I don't even know if love is real. After running from the bastard who brutalized me, I limped back to Arizona, choosing a vibrant college town in the hopes of starting over. I never expected to find him there. Cord Gentry. He and his brothers were tough, lusty forces of nature I'd known since childhood. Years ago Cord seduced me as a sick game. I've hated him ever since. Now here he is again, a man who beats other men bloody for money.

Stephanie... As a bookie, I know more about money lines, pay sheets, and point spreads than any six men. I always thought I was in control until a terrible betrayal taught me otherwise. The price was my dignity, and I can't bear to make any more mistakes. Chase Gentry figured it would be easy to get to me. He thought I was like every other girl, just dying to spread wide for him. I knew it was a rotten gamble to get mixed up with a guy too smart and too hot for his own good.

Visionär? Genie? Getriebener? Halb Genie, halb Wahnsinniger, Guru, Choleriker und Kontrollfreak - das ist das vorherrschende Bild, das sich die Welt von Steve Jobs gemacht hat. Jobs selbst hat zu Lebzeiten dieses Image gern gepflegt, und seine Biografen sind ihm bereitwillig gefolgt. Vier Jahre nach seinem Tod ist es nun an der Zeit, ein klareres Bild des Apple-Gründers zu zeichnen. Auf Grundlage zahlreicher Gespräche mit Jobs selbst sowie mit engsten Vertrauten und Weggefährten wie Tim Cook oder Bill Gates ist ein ebenso differenziertes wie leidenschaftliches Porträt entstanden, das der Frage nachgeht, wie aus einem ungestümen, jungen Gründer die wichtigste Unternehmerpersönlichkeit unserer Zeit reifen konnte.
