She ruined the billionaire. Now she works for him. When Avery Lane walks back into Black Industries—the company she once exposed—she expects security to escort her out, not Greyson Black to hire her as his executive assistant. Six years ago, her article scorched his reputation and torched her career. Now Avery needs a lifeline, and Greyson wants the one thing he's never had with her: control of the narrative. From glass-walled boardrooms to glittering galas, every task is a test, every glance a dare, and every secret more dangerous than the last. The harder Avery fights him, the closer she gets to the truth behind his empire—and the man he doesn't let the world see. As old scandals resurface and a fresh leak threatens to set the city on fire, enemies become accomplices, then something neither of them can name. If Avery trusts him, she risks her comeback. If Greyson lets her in, he risks the empire he built on iron rules and silence. Age-gap heat, ruthless chemistry, and a battle of wills in the heart of Manhattan—where the only thing more addictive than power is the person who can break you.
