She hid his son for three years, and the hotel she just checked into belongs to him.
Elaine came back to San Francisco for one reason. Settle her father's estate, then drive home to Denver before anyone recognizes her. Three years ago she left this city broke, pregnant, and finished with the man who bought her father's company out from under him. Tonight she wants one expensive burger and a quiet room.
She gets Saverio Dawes standing over her table instead.
Sav owns half the city. He owns the hotel. He also owns a background report with a photograph of a two year old boy who has his brown eyes. He wants the son nobody told him about. He wants Elaine back in his bed. He bought the ring before he walked into the lobby, and he offers her a marriage, an allowance, and a custody fight if she says no.
He will not offer the one thing she asks for.
Elaine gives him two days. Two days on his yacht, on his island, and on his plane, and she breaks every rule she set. Then photographers catch them on the water and she stands to lose the small clothing label she built alone. Now the savage Dawes has to decide whether a man raised by cold parents can say the word love and mean it.
Tropes: secret baby, billionaire, marriage of convenience, forced marriage, reunion, second chance, single mother, custody threat, possessive alpha, no cheating, HEA guaranteed.
