A novel by Eva Kingsley
He doesn’t negotiate. He drops a final demand. Welcome to the series, where instant love is a beautiful, unavoidable trap.
Investigative journalist Tessa is hours away from publishing the exposé of the century—one that could bring down Sterling Media. But when she’s cornered in the top-floor executive boardroom of the Vanguard Tower, she finds the ruthless CEO himself waiting for her.
Gavin Sterling is calculated, cold, and entirely undefeated in the cutthroat world of media empires. The moment his sapphire eyes lock onto hers, his entire legacy takes a backseat to a new, consuming obsession. He doesn’t want to sue her. He wants to keep her.
He drops a ruthless, non-negotiable ultimatum: sign an exclusive, lifetime employment contract to work directly in his private office, or he buys her family’s legacy publishing house by midnight and burns her career to ash.
Tessa wants to hate him, but trapped in his tower, she realizes Gavin isn't just taking over her story—he's claiming her life. And when corporate rivals circle her looking for blood, Gavin’s lethal protective mode takes over. He will legally, financially, and physically ruin anyone who dares to threaten what is his.
