Enemies To Lovers Romance. BOOK ONE. In Edward Larsson's world, control meant everything. After his father passed down the family business into his more than capable hands two years ago, he stopped at nothing to get what he wanted. Power, greed and success was his mantra, and nothing would stop him from living it. Until Delilah... Like Edward, Delilah was fighting tooth and nail to make something of her father's business. But for very different reasons. Delilah's father was sick and to afford the healthcare he needed, she had to pull the dying company from the ground to its old ways. So when a chance of a lifetime was thrown her way, she couldn't believe her luck. One she could not afford to ruin. The only problem? Edward wanted in too, and he didn't care who he hurt in the process.
