"I don't know who moved first. But suddenly my mouth was on his and I was kissing him like I was oxygen and he'd been drowning...I didn't even know his name." I'm Harper, and my life exploded the day I caught my husband with my best friend. He handed me divorce papers like I was disposable. So I ran to LA, got drunk, and let a stranger make me forget I was ever a wife. One night. No names. No rules. Just the kind of heat that sears itself into your bones. I thought I escaped it when I slipped out of his bed before sunrise. I was wrong. Because at my next job interview, he's sitting across from me, the stranger from that night. Hardin Wolfe. Billionaire. Cold. Dangerous. "I've been searching for you," he tells me, and my entire body remembers him. I need this job to rebuild my life. I need revenge on the people who destroyed me. But working for Hardin means late nights, closed doors, one hotel room on business trips...and a man who doesn't understand the word no when it comes to me. I try to keep my distance. He gets closer. Too close. Until one night on a work trip, I stop fighting it—and everything between us ignites again. Then I miss my period. The baby could be his. Or it could be my ex-husband's from our final, toxic goodbye. Now my ex wants me back. Hardin is hiding a secret that could break me all over again. And I'm carrying a child who might belong to the wrong man. Revenge tastes sweet. Desire burns deep. And loving either of them might destroy me.
