I never should have loved her, yet my heart fell for her—utterly beyond my control.
I’m Austin McCarthy. I hold everything in the McCarthy family in the palm of my hand, and yet Kiera Hewitt is my only exception.
I married her for a business deal, a woman who seemed soft on the surface but unyielding at her core. I thought we’d get what we each wanted and leave each other in peace, but through countless quarrels, endless push and pull, and unspoken acts of favoritism, I lost all sense of control.
I can’t restrain the urge to touch her, and a fierce, overwhelming possessiveness has taken hold of me. I want her to be mine—completely, entirely mine.
Every sign points to the truth: I’ve fallen for her.
But the closer we grow, the greater the pain I’ll inflict on her when the truth finally comes to light.
Before this feeling spirals totally out of control, I tell myself I have to end it.But when I’m with her, how could I ever bring myself to do that?
This is the second book in a sweet romance novel series featuring a billionaire CEO, an age gap, and a marriage of convenience, with explicit intimate scenes.
