Arielle Burnes worked all her life to get to where she was now. Four years in college with more extracurricular activities than classes on her report sheet were just a portion of the attributes that landed her an internship, but not any internship. The large AMI tower that loomed over the richest street in NYC-the same one that she would watch longingly as she walked to and fro from her dorm to the park, would now be her first job out of college. A way to transform her mother's life, just as she promised. Alexander Marquee, a 30 year old self made billionaire, did not always have it easy. Blood, sweat, and tears, got him to where he sat. With his executive seat fitted more as a throne, he won himself many allies and even more enemies. Yet as long as he remained focused, there would be no bringing him down or drawing him away. He just needed to remain focused. As focused as he could be, regardless of the new distraction in his office who went by the name Arielle Burnes.
