His forbidden

For six years, Alessia De Luca has hated exactly one man.

Diego Navarro.

CEO of Navarro International Resorts.

Professional thief of investors.

Destroyer of her patience.

And the infuriating face behind every headline comparing their billion-dollar hotel empires.

As the youngest CEO in her family's history, Alessia has spent years proving she deserves her position. Every contract she loses becomes another reason for her board to doubt her. Every victory Diego steals becomes another reminder that no matter how hard she works, someone is always waiting for her to fail.

The worst part?

Diego doesn't seem to take their rivalry seriously.

While Alessia is plotting his downfall, he's busy smiling through meetings, making sarcastic comments, and speaking Spanish just to annoy her.

When a legendary billionaire investor announces he'll be choosing only one company to back, the rivalry between them becomes more intense than ever.

But as secrets begin surfacing inside Alessia's company, she starts to realize that losing might not have been her fault all along.

And the man she's spent years fighting may be the only one willing to fight for her.
