I went to war with my CEO on my third day… and somehow ended up half‑undressed in his townhouse while we tried not to make another terrible decision. Tell me—how do forbidden office romance and accidental one‑night stand happen in the same investigation? Archer Dane is the last man I should be anywhere near. Sharp suit, sharper stare, and a reputation for making people fold without raising his voice.Naturally, I challenge him in front of a billionaire and an entire crisis team.
Naturally, he decides I’m the one he wants beside him when everything starts to burn.Then the danger hits. A witness is threatened. Files vanish. And suddenly I’m in his townhouse wearing his shirt because mine is ruined and he refuses to let me walk home alone.That’s when the tension stops pretending.
The way he looks at me. The way I feel when he steps too close. The way one reckless moment in his office nearly becomes something neither of us can take back.I fall for him right when he starts showing the man behind the control—protective, principled, and far too human.And then I learn the truth he never gave me.He didn’t just choose me for the case. He built the entire plan around me… and loving him might be the one mistake that destroys everything I’ve worked for.
