Between managing her parents and siblings and planning elaborate weddings at her family's winery, her schedule is packed, leaving no room for a personal life.

One thing about me? I don't play games. Another thing about me? I don't waste time. In my role as Mr. Black Detroit, my focus is supporting my community and planning the city's annual Juneteenth celebration. Again, my time is valuable. I should've ignored the text. But . . . there's something about Daphne that makes me want to engage. Maybe it's the way she commands a room and isn't afraid to get her hands dirty. Or maybe it's the glimpse of vulnerability in her eyes. It's probably just her. Whatever it is in the beginning quickly morphs into something else entirely, though.

I tried to convince her to run from me. I tried everything I knew to make her despise me, but she never faltered, pushing back at every turn.

And while his life was desolate, it was simple. Until he met her. Taking care of her sick mother, Lila Stone found herself unemployed. Again. But a chance encounter with a stranger presented the perfect opportunity. Her single reservation . . . her new boss.
