I've spent my whole life being the good girl.

The dependable assistant. The woman who fixes everything. The one who never asks for help.

Then James Sinclair becomes my boss. Powerful. Older. Intimidating. The kind of man who doesn't ask twice. He notices everything, how hard I work, how little I sleep, how close I am to breaking. And when he calls me baby girl, something inside me melts.

His rules are simple: I eat. I rest. I stop carrying the world alone.

But the way he watches me… and the way he touches me… This isn't just about rules anymore. He's my boss. He's completely forbidden. And the more I try to resist him, the more I realize the truth…I don't just want to obey him. I want to belong to him.
