She walks into my office on her first day and I know I'm in trouble.
Olivia Hartwell is twenty-two years old, a new graduate, and happens to be my business partner's daughter. Scott asked me to train her, teach her everything I know about running our company. He trusts me. Calls me his best friend. Has no idea that when I look at his daughter, I'm thinking things that would end our partnership.
I'm forty-two. Divorced. Twenty years older than her and supposed to know better.
At first I keep my distance. Take the stairs to avoid the elevator. Work late so I don't run into her in the parking garage. Pretend I don't notice the way she looks at me like I'm not completely wrong for her.
Then Scott asks me to take her to Costa Rica for a business deal.
Three days. Just us.
I tell myself I can handle it. Stay professional. Do the right thing.
But she shows up in a black bikini at that waterfall, asks me to teach her things that have nothing to do with business, and looks at me like I'm everything she's ever wanted.
I break every rule I've ever made.
Now we're back in Miami and I'm supposed to pretend it never happened. Supposed to look Scott in the eye and lie. Supposed to watch her walk past my office every day and feel nothing.
The problem is, I'm in love with her.
And there's no version of this that doesn't destroy me.
Series of independent novels - each book can be read alone. Happy reading!
