From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE contemporary romanceโ€ฆ
The last thing Dorian Vanderbilt expected was to find me painting in my crop top when he returned to the mansion he hadnโ€™t inhabited in years.
He was understandably surprised Iโ€™d turned his living room into an art space.
Life is certainly full of surprises, though, but not always in a good way.
I learned that lesson when my aunt and the billionaire she married died unexpectedly while traveling.
Iโ€™d been living with them, and just like that, my life was turned on its axis.
Unsure of what was next, I stayed alone at the barren estate figuring out my next move.
That was when Dorianโ€”the late billionaireโ€™s only sonโ€”showed up.
Iโ€™d never met Dorian Vanderbilt. Heโ€™d been living on the other side of the country.
But now, he was home, left to pick up the pieces of his fatherโ€™s legacy.
Not only was Dorian devastatingly handsome and mysterious, but he was the sole heir to the Vanderbilt fortune.
He didnโ€™t seem to like meโ€”at first. We were total opposites. But I was grateful that at least he didnโ€™t kick me out.
We stayed out of each otherโ€™s way for the most part, save for some late-night kitchen run-ins or unexpected bonding sessions in the home theater.
Over time, though, we grew closer. Turned out, our chemistry was pretty combustible.
I was falling in love with him.
Until everything I thought I knew turned upside down yet again.
And fate left me pining for the one man Iโ€™d ever loved.
