Solene Frost never thought her first week as managing partner of her late father’s accounting firm would unravel into a storm of secrets, danger, and desire. When her father dies under suspicious circumstances tied to his last client—Wilder Corp.—Solene steps in to complete the audit he left behind. But Wilder Corp. isn’t just any client. It’s the empire ruled by billionaire CEO Paul Wilder—a man with a secret connection to her father’s death. At a dazzling gala, Solene saves a drugged stranger from collapsing in front of the press. One intense, life-altering night later, she disappears, not knowing the man she saved is none other than Paul himself. Haunted by guilt, Paul hires Solene’s firm to investigate financial discrepancies—but neither of them realizes who the other truly is. That is, until Solene begins to uncover more than just embezzlement: a money-laundering scheme that funnels billions through Wilder Corp.’s most ambitious project, Wilder City, and a deadly designer drug called Lumine spreading among influencers. With danger closing in, Paul makes Solene an offer she can’t refuse: a fake relationship to protect them both while the investigation continues. But pretending to be lovers turns far too real, far too fast. As sparks fly and enemies draw near, Solene must walk the line between truth and survival—because the deeper she digs, the more she risks losing everything. Including Paul. And when the truth finally comes out… will love be enough to survive the fallout?
