Lila Summers has always believed that flowers can heal almost any wound. As the owner of Petals & Posies, her flower shop in the heart of the city, she's found peace in the soft beauty of petals and blooms-until the cold, unyielding force of Lorenzo Hayes walks through her door. Lorenzo, a powerful CEO with a reputation for getting what he wants, has his eyes set on expanding his empire, and he sees potential in Lila's business. But Lila isn't interested in being another cog in his corporate machine. She's built her shop from the ground up, and she's determined to keep it that way. When Lorenzo offers her a partnership, Lila resists, unwilling to compromise her independence. But as their paths continue to cross, she finds herself questioning everything she's worked for. Is it possible to grow without losing herself? And more importantly, is it possible to trust the man who could either be her greatest ally-or her downfall?

[COMPLETED] As I was beginning to relax, a new terror coursed through my body at his next word, "Strip." "Ex-excuse me?" I blurted out. I wasn't getting undressed in front of him, I barely knew him. He must have been trying to gain something from me and I doubted my fear and embarrassment was what he wanted. Adrenous didn't say anything as he drew his hands up my back and halted at the laces of my dress. I felt him tug at one of the nots and I instantly pulled away and turned to face him, no longer caring that his manhood was out for all to see. Just like that part of him, he too was a dick. "I'm not getting undressed in front of you!" I yelled at him. "Your mine, Alivia," My name passed his lips easily and hearing him say it did things to me which I didn't want to admit. Instead I glared at him, he said I was his as if I was some kind of possession that he could do with as he pleased. He added, "Let me take care of you." I didn't know what he meant by that, all I knew was that I had no intention of doing as he had asked. ✨🌕✨ BOOK ONE OF THE KING SERIES ⚠️ WARNING: this book is mature and should only be read if you are 18+.
