He was the billionaire CEO taking over her company and she kissed him anyway.
Harper Black’s morning starts with harassment on the subway and a stranger who steps in to help. Sterling is kind, charming, impossibly easy to talk to.
When Sterling walks into her company party that night and is introduced as Sterling Donovan, CEO of Donovan Enterprises, Harper’s world tilts. The stranger from the subway is her new billionaire boss.
She should walk away. Keep it professional. Protect her career.
She kisses him outside the bar instead.
Secret texts become stolen moments. Coffee appears on her desk with notes that make her blush. By the time their flight makes an emergency landing and a snowstorm traps them in one hotel room on New Year’s Eve, they’ve stopped pretending they can walk away from each other.
Then someone finds out.
Someone who wanted Harper for himself and doesn’t take rejection well. Someone with the power to destroy her reputation, Sterling’s position, and a quarter-billion-dollar merger.
Now Harper must prove she earned everything on merit while Sterling chooses between his family’s empire and the woman who makes him feel alive. With corporate investigators closing in and powerful men determined to see them fail, they’ll discover what they’re really willing to sacrifice for love.
Contains mature themes.
