Lauren:

Landing a job at Property Group, one of New York’s top real estate firms, was no small feat. After years of sacrifice and hard work, I made it. I’m the CEO’s secretary. This is my shot—my chance to change everything.

What I wasn’t prepared for? The CEO is him.

Silas Walker. The boy who made my high school years a living nightmare. The one who broke me with his cruelty and taught me never to look back.

But twenty years have passed, and he’s no longer the arrogant teenager who tormented me. He’s a dangerously powerful, devastatingly handsome billionaire who has every woman in the city at his feet.

And now… I work for him.

Quitting isn’t an option. I need this job more than I care to admit. But resisting Silas Walker? That might be impossible.

Because the boy who shattered me… still has the power to make my heart race.

Silas:

Lauren Green. My muse. My regret. My obsession.

I thought time had erased her from my system, that I had moved on without a second thought.

Then she walks into my office.

And suddenly, twenty years disappear.

But this time, things are different. I hold the power now.

Lauren doesn’t know the truth—how badly I wanted her back then… how much I still want her now. But she’s about to find out. Because I’m not the same man she remembers.

And this time, I’m not letting her go.

Even if I have to tear down every last wall she’s built between us.
