Nora Grace has a rule: never fall for a coworker. But the quiet new hire in Operations has been unravelling that rule one glance at a time, until she can't sit across a conference table from him without forgetting what she came in to say. She thinks about his hands more than she'd ever admit out loud. She thinks about what he'd do if he ever stopped holding himself back.What she doesn't know is that Sebastian Cole isn't new to anything. He owns the company. He owns the building. He's hiding behind a fake name and a lower floor to root out the betrayal that nearly destroyed him, and the one complication he never planned for is a sharp, guarded secretary who has no idea how badly he wants her, or how long he's been watching her before she ever noticed him back.Every late night in that office becomes harder to survive. Every accidental touch lingers longer than it should. And the tension neither of them will name is building toward a night, and neither of them will be able to undo.When the truth finally comes out, it won't just be his lie she has to reckon with. It'll be exactly how far Sebastian Cole is willing to go and how completely he's already decided she's his long before she ever says yes.Some secrets are dangerous. His is the kind you don't come back from wanting.
