"𝓗𝓮 𝓻𝓾𝓵𝓮𝓭 𝓮𝓶𝓹𝓲𝓻𝓮𝓼 , 𝓢𝓱𝓮 𝓻𝓾𝓵𝓮𝓭 𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝓱𝓮𝓪𝓻𝓽..." Xavier Knight, 28, is the epitome of untouchable perfection-a multi-billionaire businessman with a Greek god's body, razor-sharp features, and an even sharper mind. With an IQ of 170, he built an empire from the ground up, commanding boardrooms with his ruthless logic and icy precision. Feared in the corporate world and desired by every woman with a pulse, Xavier remains emotionally impenetrable, carrying the weight of childhood abandonment and betrayal that taught him love is a luxury he can't afford. And when a certain sunshine girl crashes into his life, the man who felt nothing... starts to feel everything. Mia Carter, 21, is a burst of sunshine in human form-bubbly, wide-eyed, and brimming with a quiet kind of magic that turns even the dullest days into something beautiful. A prodigious architect fresh out of school, she's already the brightest star at one of New York's top design firms, her raw talent making even seasoned professionals stop and stare. Obsessed with noodles, iced coffee, and everything sweet, Mia moves through life with an infectious smile and a heart too big for the world, never quite realizing the chaos she leaves in her wake. And when her sunshine collides with the storm that is Xavier Knight... her world-and his-will never be the same.
