My one-night stand.
A ruthless bastard.
A heartless billionaire.
The man who ruled his empire with a cold head and an even colder heart. And most importantly, my son's father. Except, he wasn't aware of that little fact. To the media, Byron Ashford is a Billionaire King. To me, he's a reminder of the hottest, most forbidden, night of my life. And my biggest mistake.
I hadn't seen him in years and hoped we'd never cross paths again.
But then, my best-laid plans always seem to go astray. Now, I need his help to bail me out of trouble. He's a billionaire and I'm just a broke, debt-riddled surgeon.
Against my better judgment, I sought him out. It should have been easy, in and out. Except, nothing with Byron Ashford was ever easy. He refuses to hand out free favors. And the price for his help?
My freedom. Literally.
He wants to shackle me to him with a marriage I don't want then throw away the key.
His demands are scandalous. His rules are dangerous for my heart.
It was supposed to be a mutually beneficial deal, but nothing about Byron is ever that simple. Once he slips the ring onto my finger, the rules change.
His demands grow. He no longer just wants to own my body. He also wants my heart and soul. But I'm not that young, naive woman anymore.
Too bad this billionaire forgot one thing. Nobody can own your heart unless you give it freely.
And this time, I'm not blinded by his smile and especially not by his lies.
