He thinks I'm the clumsy assistant tripping over his elevator threshold. He doesn't know I'm the hacker sent to burn his empire to the ground.
Julian Halloway is a glitch in the system. He is the billionaire CEO of Halloway Tech. He is cold, paranoid, and devastatingly handsome. He trusts no one. He encrypts his toaster. He has biometric locks on his heart. To the world, he's a genius. To me? He's the target.
I am Maren Toussaint. But on the dark web, I'm known as The Lens. I expose corporate corruption, and Julian is my biggest job yet. My mission is simple: Infiltrate his office, clone his data, find the evidence of his embezzlement, and destroy him.
I played the part perfectly. I wore the oversized blazers. I spilled the coffee. I let him lecture me on binary code and efficiency. I became the one variable he couldn't predict: a disaster he wanted to fix.
But then came Aspen. A blizzard. A private jet. A hotel with only one bed. Somewhere between the turbulence and the snowed-in nights, the lines blurred. Julian wasn't the monster I was promised. He was broken, lonely, and fierce. When he looks at me, he doesn't see a spy. He sees the only person he can trust.
Now I have the evidence I came for, but it proves the wrong thing. He's innocent. And the real traitor is closer than he thinks. I have to save him. But to save him, I have to reveal who I really am.
And when Julian Halloway finds out I've been lying since the moment we met? He won't just fire me. He'll destroy me.
