A delayed flight. A stranger at a hotel bar. A one night stand. Stranded in New York for an extra night than planned due to a delayed flight, I needed to find a way to keep myself occupied, and I soon found that something. It was easy enough when the handsome stranger introduced himself to me as Kade. It has been a while since I have had a hot one-night stand, and he reminds me how fun it can be. There are no questions, expectations or reasons to see one another again. What I don't expect is our night together to come around and bite me in the ass. When I arrive at a family dinner with my parents and two older sisters to celebrate my return home to Scotland, he is sitting right there with them. Not only is he my father's new business partner, but he is my sister's blind date set up by my parents. We pretend to be strangers because things would become complicated if we didn't. No one ever needs to know about what happened between us. My dad would freak out if he found out about us because he is overly protective of me as the youngest, and with the age gap between Kade and me, my father wouldn't approve. My relationship with my older sister is already strained; I don't need to make things worse between us. Even though he doesn't seem interested in her and he tries his best to show that it could still make all hell break lose. My sister hates losing. She always gets what she wants. I should stay away from him, but it is easier said than done with the tension and chemistry between us, and we struggle to fight against it. No matter what happens, it needs to be our secret to keep.

Look, I was just a regular marketing whiz trying to make rent, until I humiliated myself in front of him. Roman Valentus. Billionaire CEO, pure perfection, and unfortunately, my new boss. Brooding? Check. Intimidating? Oh, absolutely. Likely to fire me on the spot? Let's just say the odds weren't in my favor. But instead of getting my walking papers, I end up working closely with him on the biggest marketing campaign of my career. We clash. We argue. But somehow, between the late nights and lingering stares, he falls. We fall-fucking hard. But love isn't just stolen glances and ear biting. Our pasts are waiting to ruin everything. And with a man like Roman? Falling might be easy... but surviving it? That's another story. Just when I start thinking this might be more than just workplace crush, the past comes knocking-his, mine, and the kind that doesn't take no for an answer. Because love is fun and all, but apparently, so is self-destruction. So, the real question is: can I survive loving a man like Roman Valentus... and can he survive loving me back?

It is rightly said and often proved by the proverb, man proposes and God disposes. What happens when everything seems to go well and a day arises in your life that within a heartbeat the fate comes crashing down at your feet turning your destiny to an utter catastrophe? What happens when the only girl you LOVE in this world and next starts to HATE you for an action you aren't even responsible for and you can do nothing about it except to keep your hands folded? What happens when you lose everything in your life including your family within a matter of seconds just because of a single ignorant move?

I am Shannon Clandevis, CEO of Clandevis Group of Industries, one of the top billionaires of the United States.
