Sometimes the life you’ve carefully planned isn’t the life you’re meant to live. Stephanie Hudson believes she has everything under control. She is on the verge of completing university, focused on building her career and determined to create a future unlike the one she grew up with. Then she accepts what should be the opportunity of a lifetime... an internship at the breathtaking Colonial Oasis Hotel. Love was never part of her plan. Especially not with the confident, frustratingly handsome CEO who seems to appear whenever she least expects him and controls everything as though he owns the world. But the greatest challenge Stephanie faces isn’t exposing the issues at her workplace. It’s deciding whether she can trust the man who has captured her heart... and whether love is enough to bridge two worlds that were never meant to collide. “One thing we both know,” he said softly, his gaze locked on mine, “is that there’s an undeniable attraction between us. Every time I touch you, I can see the reaction as the electricity races through your body.” As he spoke, he shifted closer, slowly erasing the remaining distance between us. His hand settled gently on my thigh. As if proving his point, the warmth of his touch seeped through the fabric of my dress, sending a tremor through me. My breath caught when his fingers lightly traced downward before gliding back up along my leg. A shiver travelled through my entire body, impossible to suppress.
