He owns the company. She owns his obsession.

I'm not just a billionaire. I'm a man who thrives on control: in business, in life, in the bedroom. Everything runs on precision and discipline. Until Melinda walks in my office all sharp wit and blazing fire. She's supposed to be just my new assistant. Off-limits. Untouchable.

But from the moment she steps into my office, she becomes the one thing I can't command... and the only thing I want.

Temptation doesn't knock?it kicks the damn door down. Late nights blur into lingering touches. Tension turns to teasing. Teasing turns to surrender. And I'm breaking every rule I've ever set to claim her?in my office, in my bed, in ways she's never felt before.

We say it's just for now.

We lie.

Because the deeper I fall, the harder it'll be to let go.

But can we defy the rules long enough to write a new ending? Or will everything we've built come crashing down around us?
