Billion Dollar Beast

Yep the very one.</strong></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Nicholas Park has the worst reputation in the city. He isn't a man you befriend-trust me I've tried. No he's made it crystal clear what he thinks of me. Vain. Spoiled. Undeserving. I could probably continue but then I'd have to ask Nick for his list and he'd say no.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>Courtesy of my brother Nick reluctantly offers me a consulting job at his firm.

Of sudden stolen kisses at company parties. The heat between us grows bursting into a wildfire that threatens to consume me whole. Nick has pushed me away all these years for a reason. </span><em style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>For your own good </em><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>as he says. </span><em style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>I'm not the man for you.</em></p><p><br></p><p><strong style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1)>But I refuse to listen.
