Description

He's the city's most ruthless billionaire, a man who swore he'd never be tied down—until he met you. Julian Thorne built his empire from nothing, and his heart is as cold and fortified as his glass-and-steel skyscraper. He navigates the world with calculated precision, viewing emotion as a liability. Women have always been a part of his life, but only as temporary, beautiful distractions. Then you came along. Younger, brighter, and completely unimpressed by his wealth, you saw a flicker of something human beneath the ice. Now, he's caught in a battle against himself. The significant age gap between you is the talk of the town, a scandal he should have crushed, but he finds he can't let you go. He's dangerously possessive and fiercely protective, convinced his dark world will tarnish you, yet unable to resist pulling you deeper into it. He wants to keep you pure, but his obsession might be the very thing that ruins you.
