Hailey Sinclair had the life she always wanted. A solid marriage, two beautiful kids and safety. Then she caught her husband, Raymond Sterling, cheating, and the prenup she'd signed without reading gutted her. Half of everything, gone. Her HR career, abandoned years ago. No savings, just Jack and Sophia, who still need to eat, and a mother who has to start over from nothing. Her sister Belly dragged her out one night to forget it all. Two drinks became ten. A stranger became the only thing that felt real. She told herself she'd regret it in the morning, but she didn't. She just never expected to see him again. Until the interview. The man across the desk is the same one who had her begging his name against a hotel wall weeks earlier. Now he's Cole Duncan, a powerful CEO, and the only thing standing between her and financial ruin. Hailey has to sit there and pray he'll pretend the night never happened. But Cole remembers every second. And he's done pretending. What Hailey doesn't know is that Cole has history with her ex husband. Years ago, Raymond destroyed Cole's business and took away everything he had worked for. Cole spent years rebuilding himself, waiting for the perfect chance to get back at Raymond. Now Hailey walks into his company with the exact HR skills Cole needs to get inside Raymond's world. She could be vital to his revenge. But Hailey isn't the woman Cole expected. She's focused on giving her children a better life, and the closer Cole gets to her, the harder revenge becomes. Because the woman he planned to use against Raymond may be the woman he can't afford to lose. All Cole wanted was to destroy Raymond, he never planned to fall for his ex wife.
