I’m secretly in love with the man who’s been protecting me for the past 3 years, But he sees me as nothing more than a liability. Derik Lewis is insufferable. Cold. Despotic. If he were only my boss, life would be agonizing enough. But he’s more than that. He’s my guardian and mentor. My grandfather appointed him to watch over me until I’m ready to take over the family business. I shouldn’t want him, but I can’t stop myself. Neither can he. But coming together only tears us farther apart. Now he’s gone. When danger looms and tragedy strikes, a long-kept family secret is discovered that has the potential to change everything. If only he’ll return to me.
