She caught the fraud. Now the company that made her rich wants her silenced - and the only man standing between her and danger is the billionaire's son she never knew existed.
Mara Voss has spent eight years proving that her father's last name isn't the reason she runs compliance for one of the world's largest hotel chains. When she uncovers a forty-one-million-dollar fraud buried inside the company's books, she expects a fight with the board. She doesn't expect a typed threat on her desk telling her to stop digging - or stop breathing.
Enter Caleb Ward: ex-special forces, quietly brilliant, and - as Mara learns in the space of one very long day - her estranged half brother, the son Elliot Voss never talks about. Caleb walked away from the family fortune years ago to build something entirely his own. He didn't plan on walking back into it to protect a sister he'd never met. He definitely didn't plan on falling for her.
Forced into close quarters in a guarded penthouse and then a remote private island while the danger closes in, Mara and Caleb are thrown into the kind of proximity that strips away every careful defense either of them has built. She's used to being underestimated. He's used to staying detached. Neither survives this investigation the way they expect to.
