The struggling bakery owner, Gemma Braxton, never expected the break of her lifetime: inheriting her estranged grandfather’s bank account and most importantly, his company. Going from a small-time bakery owner to a full time CEO of a large hotel industry isn’t quite the sunshine and rainbows Gemma was hoping from the generous bequeathal. Giving up the bakery she’s worked all her life for, she takes the proper seat of being president of Dalliance, engulfing her into the corrupt world of business …and businessmen.
Being thrown in at such a young age, Marcelo Valacari is insusceptible to the cruel world of business, owning the illustrious Valacari Hotel & Resort. At only age twenty-nine, he’s achieved the title of being the youngest (and richest) business mogul out there. After learning of the former CEO’s death of Dalliance, all plans of a partnership are on a hiatus. Marcelo has no choice but to woo the new CEO into the business deal, and he’s going to do whatever it takes to make sure the deal goes through as planned, even risking his heart.
