Chapter 1

One disastrous spill.

One powerful man.

Maya Knight's mistake at a high-end Malibu restaurant lands her in the unexpected servitude of the undeniably alluring and intensely private Theodore Duke. Across the Atlantic, as she works to repay her debt, a far deeper connection sparks between them. Beneath Theodore's wealth and brooding exterior lies a wounded soul, and Maya discovers her own heart holds unexpected vulnerabilities.

In this journey from obligation to intimacy, can they truly mend each other's broken pieces?
