Crisis consultant Maya Collins will do anything to save her family’s company. Billionaire CEO Adrian Blackwell strides into her boardroom standoff determined to claim the upper hand. He’s used to having all the power, but Maya is no ordinary opponent. Every move in this high-stakes corporate chess game could be their last. When a ruthless rival saboteur turns their tense negotiation into a deadly conspiracy, Maya’s finely-honed instincts scream for caution — but she can’t ignore the spark between them.
Adrian never expected a woman like Maya to upend his carefully guarded world. Now Maya and Adrian are caught in a heart-pounding game of trust and betrayal, dodging bullets and shadowy assassins as they uncover secrets that could destroy them both. For both of them, every moment becomes a question of survival. Falling for a guarded CEO might be Maya’s deadliest risk… unless Adrian proves that some stakes are worth taking.
When sparks fly and bullets rain, is it just business… or something far more dangerous?
