Part of Beautiful Bastard, book 1
First published 2013
Chloe Mills walks into the Chicago offices of the Ryan family media empire ready to prove herself. She's smart, driven, and determined to earn her MBA. But her boss Bennett Ryan makes every day a battle. He's demanding, blunt, and maddeningly attractive. Bennett returned from France to join the family business, never expecting his remote assistant to be this gorgeous, infuriating woman who challenges him at every turn. The tension between them crackles through boardroom meetings and late night work sessions. Bennett has always avoided office relationships, but Chloe breaks down his carefully constructed rules. As their professional conflicts turn into something more dangerous, both must decide what they're willing to risk. Their careers hang in the balance as desire threatens to destroy everything they've worked to build.
