When Ellie Hayes, a young, ambitious journalist, is assigned to interview Dominic Blackwell, New York's most elusive billionaire, she's ready to approach it like any other story. But Dominic isn't like any man she's ever met: mysterious, fiercely intelligent, and achingly handsome. Dominic carries a dark charm that draws her in, even as rumors swirl about his scandalous past and broken engagements. Their undeniable chemistry turns a simple interview into an intricate game of desire, secrets, and undeniable passion.
Dominic's life is steeped in luxury and power, but behind the opulence lies a darkness he's kept hidden from the world. He's built walls to keep out everyone-including himself. Ellie's warmth, intelligence, and fearless curiosity unsettle him, tempting him to lower his defenses and risk his heart. But letting Ellie in might mean exposing vulnerabilities he's kept hidden for a lifetime.
As their relationship deepens, Ellie uncovers secrets Dominic's rivals would kill to know, and the stakes escalate from emotional to deadly. Trapped between her growing feelings for Dominic and the demands of her career, she finds herself forced to make an impossible choice: protect the man she loves, or risk everything she's built.
