#1 out of 1,000+ Love
Damian Cross is the kind of billionaire CEO whose name alone moves stock markets. Cold, controlled, devastatingly handsome - the type every magazine calls "the man no woman can tame." But behind closed boardroom doors, Damian faces one problem money cannot solve: he needs an heir, and medical complications mean traditional routes have failed.
Enter Arielle Brooks - a grounded, warm-hearted graduate student from a modest but loving Southern family. Responsible. Properly raised. Sharp-tongued when needed. She signs on as a surrogate purely for financial security for her family... not expecting to move into the penthouse of the most emotionally unavailable man in Manhattan.
What follows is:
• Culture clashes
• Power struggles
• Unexpected laughter
• Denial of feelings
• Jealous exes
• Corporate betrayal
• Family interference
• A fake relationship that becomes dangerously real
And a man who never believed in love learning that control is not the same as happiness.
