He broke her heart with four words.
Ten years later, she’s coming for his company.
Megan Hale built her career the same way she rebuilt herself after Harvard: quietly, precisely, and without leaving weak points behind. As the founder of Hale Capital, she’s known for spotting vulnerabilities before anyone else. And the Aldridge Group, one of New York’s most powerful commercial real estate empires, is finally vulnerable.
What no one knows is that her hostile takeover was never just business.
Wyatt Aldridge was once the boy who knew her coffee order, kissed her in the rain, and made her believe she was loved before humiliating her in front of half of Harvard. Now he’s the newly appointed CEO of his family’s empire, carrying a legacy that feels more like a debt than an inheritance. When he discovers someone has been quietly acquiring pieces of his company, the last person he expects to find behind it is Megan.
The woman he never forgot.
The woman who has every reason to hate him.
Some hostile takeovers aren’t about money.
They’re about revenge.
And the one person you were never supposed to love again.
Now the line between revenge and love is disappearing fast.
And when the truth finally comes out, it could cost them everything… the company, their futures, and the second chance they never saw coming.
