One wrong number. One billion-dollar complication.
LAYLA
I never meant to give him my mothers phone number. But when a jaw-droppingly gorgeous stranger asks for my digits at a street festival, my sweaty fingers transpose the last two numbers. Now hes accidentally texting my recently-separated mom instead of me. My bad. I figure Ive blown my chance with Chicagos hottest mystery man. Until I walk into my fathers boardroom and discover that same man is Bennett Mercer—billionaire CEO and the corporate raider about to dismantle my familys company. The same man whos looking at me like I deliberately played him. The same man I still cant stop thinking about.
BENNETT
I dont get played. Im the one who makes the rules, closes the deals, and walks away with exactly what I want. So when I text the captivating woman from the festival and end up exchanging messages with someone completely different, I know Ive been given a fake number. When that woman turns out to be the daughter of my latest acquisition target, my suspicions are confirmed. What I dont expect is for her fierce defense of her fathers legacy to make me question everything Ive built. Shes a complication I never saw coming. A temptation I cant afford. And possibly the one thing I cant live without.
