"What are you doing in here?" he asked, his voice cold and furious.
"I... I brought the files you requested, sir," Maddison stammered cautiously, stepping into his office.
"Put them here and get the hell out of my office," he bellowed, pointing to his desk.
She froze, unable to move. His piercing glare locked on hers.
"Done staring?" His voice dropped lower, dangerous. "I said get out!"
She hurriedly placed the files on his desk and fled, but not before catching the smirk that flickered across his face...
******************************************************************************
Maddison Hudson never imagined she'd land a job at Novak & Smith Industries, one of the most prestigious companies in the world. She certainly never expected to work as the private secretary to Derek Novak, the most arrogant, domineering man she'd ever met.
Derek Novak has it all: wealth, power, women throwing themselves at his feet. But none of it satisfies him. He wants more. He wants her-Maddison. Sweet, innocent Maddison.
And what Derek Novak wants, he always gets.
He'll break down her walls. He'll strip away her defenses. He'll make her his, body and soul.
But will she surrender?
Their connection is undeniable, their chemistry electric. But in a world of power, secrets, and heartbreak, can their love survive? Or will they destroy each other in the process?
