Lauren Pierce doesn't believe in fairy tales-she believes in power, control, and results. As the no-nonsense CEO of one of the city's top corporations, she's built her empire brick by brutal brick, leaving no room for mistakes-or emotions. Her life is a perfectly structured boardroom where ambition reigns supreme, and people are just pawns in her strategic game. Marshal Quinn: scrawny, disorganized, and far too optimistic for his own good. As Lauren's new assistant, he's everything she can't stand-awkward with his words, perpetually late with coffee, and somehow immune to her icy demeanor. But beneath his clumsy exterior is a quick wit, an unexpected brilliance, and a stubborn charm that wedges itself into the cracks of Lauren's carefully fortified walls. When a high-stakes corporate deal forces them to work closer than ever, Lauren finds herself facing a challenge she can't outmaneuver: her growing feelings for the one person who's not afraid to challenge her-both in business and in matters of the heart. In a world where ambition is currency and vulnerability is weakness, can the heart truly be conquered, or will love be the ultimate hostile takeover?

[Book 2 in the Secret series] "That's not what I meant..." I chew on my lip. "Well, what the fuck did you mean then?" He shouts. "When I'm there I don't have to think about you!" I yell back. Wrong choice of words again, Sophia. I curse myself. His form immediately stands and he strides over to me, he is now inches away from me, his body is so close to mine that I am forced to take a couple of steps backwards. My back is pressed up against the window. Noah's breathing is deep but he speaks softly, "when you're there all I can think about is you." He raises his hand and tucks a strand of hair behind my ear. I step around him and head for the door, "uh I'm going to go to the hospital." I pick up my bag and rush out of the door leaving Noah in the room and saving myself from doing something I would definitely regret and make me change my mind about going back to Pennsylvania. ------------ 'I love you too,' were the last words Sophia heard before she was banished from her home city and she left without a second thought. If she didn't she knew she would be in danger. A month and a half later Sophia returns as a person close to her is in critical condition in hospital. Everyone's eyes are on Sophia, and they are looking for someone to blame. Will she return to her new life and forget about New York once and for all? Or will she fit right back into the McKenzie's life as if she never left? And as for her relationship with Noah, there might be a chance for romance after all.
