Angélique Dupont is 19, freshly out of college, and eager to make her mark on the world-even if she still trips over her own shoelaces. So when she stumbles on a job listing for a personal assistant to a high-powered CEO, she applies with wide eyes and crossed fingers.
Killian Devereux needs order, control, and zero distractions. So when he hires the most polished résumé in the stack, he expects a mature, no-nonsense woman to show up at his office. Instead, he gets... Angélique. Bubbly. Innocent. A little awkward. And way too young.
She might look like she doesn't know what she's doing-but underneath the sunshine and wide eyes is a mind sharp enough to keep up with him. Maybe even outsmart him.
He wasn't looking for temptation. She wasn't looking for anything more than a job. But sometimes, the most dangerous thing... is underestimating the girl who smiles too much.
