I needed a miracle to save my career and stay out of prison. Instead, I crashed into the most dangerous man in the firm—my billionaire boss.
Chelsea Hayes is running out of time. Framed for a devastating leak by treacherous colleagues, the twenty-nine-year-old junior associate is minutes away from a ruined reputation and a federal indictment. But when she quite literally runs into Caldwell Oliver—the ruthless, billionaire managing partner who rules the firm with an iron fist—her desperate attempt to survive takes a terrifying, exhilarating turn.
Caldwell doesn't just want to save her. He wants to own her.
To protect his multi-billion-dollar merger and shield Chelsea from a relentless compliance audit, the apex predator of the corporate world forces her into a scandalous contract: a fake engagement. Suddenly, the junior associate is wearing a diamond the size of a glacier and playing the devoted fiancée to a man who thrives on absolute control.
But the lines between business and pleasure blur the moment the office doors lock. Caldwell isn’t just a demanding boss. He’s a deeply possessive, morally grey billionaire who has secretly bought her financial debt to trap her, and he will commit any crime to keep her by his side. When corporate espionage escalates to extortion and hitmen, Caldwell proves just how lethal his protection can be.
What started as a blackmail-fueled arrangement quickly detonates into a fierce, entirely consuming passion. As the heat between them explodes over mahogany desks and penthouse windows, Chelsea realizes the biggest danger isn't the corporate conspiracy trying to take them down.
It’s falling in love with the devil himself.
