I was hired to survive.
A temp job. A paycheck. A few weeks inside the glass tower of a billionaire empire until my life stopped falling apart.

Then I met Sebastian Archer.
Cold. Controlled. Devastatingly untouchable.
The kind of man who doesn’t make mistakes—except hiring me.

One rumor. One reckless decision. One fake relationship meant to save us both.

Rules were drawn. Lines were clear.
No feelings.
No truth.
No real kisses.

But lies don’t stay quiet in boardrooms, and desire doesn’t care about contracts.

Now the media is watching, his enemies are circling, and my past is clawing its way back into the spotlight.
Every touch feels dangerous.
Every glance feels like a promise we shouldn’t make.

Because if this is just pretend…
Why does it feel like he’s the only place I belong?

And when the truth finally comes out, I’ll have to decide—
Protect myself…
Or risk everything for the man who was never supposed to be mine.
