Revel Rose Billionaires Series

Step up and be a man . . . That's what I had to do when my father walked out on my mother, sister, and me for the other family he had on the side. He left us with nothing. So I had to become something—someone better than he thought I could be. I made it, despite my father—because of my father. All I need now is that one huge client for my business to soar, to rocket me into the stratosphere where I belong. And to do that, I need help. I need her. Brianna Cox—New Orleans' finest event coordinator. Sassy. Feisty. Gorgeous. Our chemistry is off the charts.

I hide behind humor . . . Because that's what you do to deflect the traumas of your past—to make people believe you're something you're not. Completely fine. When in fact, you're broken—a shell of the man you want to be. Despite my past, I made something of myself. As the COO of my best friend's company, I aim to be the best at everything—business, life, in the bedroom. I earned myself an ego in all areas. Then she walked in. Paisley Drake—the temptation I can't resist. Spirited. Artistic. Seductive. I have to have a taste. But there's just one problem—one night with her would never be enough.

Some might see me as heartless...because at work, I am cold, calculating, ruthless, and I demand nothing but the best. No exceptions. But when in fact—I'm craving the woman I can't have. We all know there are rules that can't be broken. I made the mistake of wronging my business partner, Nash, once before. I won't do it again, not if I want to keep my position by his side in this company.
