BLURB
Zara Alim has 48 hours to find a job or move back home in defeat. She did everything right, graduated at the top of her class, chased every opportunity, and kept hoping, even when rejection became normal. So when she stumbles upon a mysterious job vacancy for a lawyer hidden in an old newspaper, she takes it as her last chance.
But the address leads her to the wrong place: instead of a law firm, Zara suddenly comes face-to-face with Adrian Wolfe, a reclusive tech billionaire, and the last man in Accra trusts anyone. Especially not the soaked, stubborn law graduate on his doorstep, claiming she is there for an interview. One unexpected 'Interview' leads to a job offer that pulls Zara into a world far more dangerous than she imagined.
Because Adrian is not just a wealthy billionaire, he is a man surrounded by secrets, enemies, and a legal battle that would be able to take away everything he had built.
He should have turned her away upon her arrival, but instead, he hired her on the spot. The terms are simple live-in-position and absolute discretion. And one clause she should have read twice "Romance entanglement with employer results in immediate termination and a $500,000 penalty."This clause was there as a form of warning to any employer that wants to introduce any form of romantic entanglement with the employee during the course of their service. This was a result of the lack of trust he had in people and his encounter with some of his previous employers.
Easy enough.Until the late night in his library starts feeling less like work.Until she realizes he is not hiding crimes but rather protecting someone. Until falling for him means choosing between her ethics, her career, and a debt that would ruin her.
Zara came for a job but stayed for the truth. Now she has to decide if loving Adrian Wolfe is worth losing everything
