About this ebook

I’m the most feared man on Wall Street…unfortunately, my best friend's little sister hasn’t gotten the memo.  

I brandish equations like lightning bolts and shatter fortunes with mere scribbles on a whiteboard. People up and down Wall Street steer clear of me—or come to regret it. 

My walls are impenetrable as Alcatraz, and my self-control? Rock solid, my friend.

Except when it comes to her.

The woman I've secretly longed for. The only woman I can never have.

My best friend’s little sister, Stella.

Growing up, she saw me as a heartless robot. It couldn't be further from the truth, but a promise I made to her brother binds me, and my code of honor is as rigid as my isosceles triangle.

I hadn't laid eyes on her for years, but now she's in the heart of Manhattan, and I've unintentionally sent her career into a nosedive. My solution? Offer her a job at my hedge fund.

Suddenly I’m the boss of her, faced daily with her sparkling eyes and gummy worm obsession–and her infuriating refusal to stay away from me. 

Well, I buried my feelings for her once before. I’ll do it again—to the nth degree. 

Ratings and reviews

These two were perfect foils for each other! But as much as they were opposite, the passion and heat between them, that made their encounters all the more interesting. And the heart, the feelings, right there, simmering below the surface, those made everything all the more……. Important. They tried to hide, they tried to be what the other wanted, but in the end, they needed to see things from a different angle, and once they did that, their HEA was, with 100% probability, guaranteed <3
