"Her past made her cautious. His world made him dangerous. Together, trust was their only chance at love."
--------‐-------------------------------
La'Shae' Morrison has sworn off love. Between raising her two-year-old son and managing the chaos at her law firm's front desk, she has no time-or patience-for men. But when Xu Minghao walks into her life, he challenges everything she thought she knew about trust. On the surface, he's the perfect man-rich, powerful, and devastatingly handsome. But beneath his tailored suits and polished charm lies a dangerous secret.
Minghao didn't expect to be drawn to the sharp-tongued secretary with walls higher than his own. As the CEO of a thriving tech empire-and the leader of an underground mafia-his life is built on control and calculated risks. Yet, something about La'Shae' makes him want to put his power aside and prove he's a man worth believing in.
As their worlds collide, secrets unravel, and enemies close in, La'Shae' must decide if she's willing to take a chance on the one man who could break her... or finally teach her what it means to trust again.
A story of love, danger, and the walls we build-only to have the right person tear them down.

The Playboy CEO (SAMPLE)
(The full version of this book is available on Webnovel!) "Do you see this?" I held up a card between my fingers. Jason looked at the card, then back at me, confusion clear as day in his eyes. "What is this?" "A wild card, obviously," he shrugged, looking like he was about to tell me to get to the point. All in due time. "Obviously," my smile probably looked sarcastic, like I was making fun of him. Jason had no business being fussy with the position he was in. "Take a look at your surroundings, my love. The situation you find yourself in is less than ideal, and I'm the only one who can save you," I was done being the hurt one. The one who was always left behind. "Now tell me again. What is this?" "A wild card." "This is what I am to you right now," I put the card down on the table and slid it towards him. "And whether it wins or loses the game for you is your move." ~°~°~°~°~°~ An accidental marriage. A drunken mistake, or a premeditated plan for revenge? Amaria doesn't know what to make of her new situation, and due to unforeseen circumstances, she is trapped.
