Dean McCormick

Everything  in my life is big from my penthouse to my ego, and I always get what I  want. So when a mysterious woman at a masquerade party leaves me with  only her phone number, I’m annoyed – and intrigued.

Mia is as  smart as she is sexy, and she challenges my dominance in ways no one  else has dared. But she’s also been lying to me, and a scandal from her  past threatens my lucrative deal with the legendary Dex Truitt.

I made a mistake letting her in. I might love her, but I can’t risk trusting her.

Mia Ford

When  I fled Kansas for New York, I expected to have a fun, new life.  Instead, I’ve become a workaholic with only a tiny apartment to show for  it.

Until I get a sext meant for someone else. I play along  because what Dean’s after is all I’m willing to give. But as I get to  know the man behind the empire, I fall for him – hard.

When my past catches up with me, Dean ends our relationship. But I’ll teach him that my love is his most powerful asset.

I’m not running this time – I’m fighting for my rightful place by his side.
