Beauty and the Boss

Beaumont Calloway is brilliant, ruthless, and impossible to please.

​

Ten years ago, Beau was a celebrated high-school basketball star. Then a fiery car accident scarred one side of his face and body—and convinced him no one would ever desire him again.

​

Now he hides behind tailored shirts, a beard, and the walls of the multimillion-dollar company he built from nothing. Employees fear him. Women never see him in the light. No one gets close enough to hurt him.

​

No one except Isla Bellamy.

​

For four years, Isla has organized Beau’s life, challenged his temper, and returned every time he fired her—with a raise and less patience. Sweet, efficient, and quietly stubborn, she is the only person who has never feared him or treated his scars with pity.

​

When their simmering attraction finally ignites, Beau tries to control it the way he controls everything else: roughly, quickly, and in darkness. Isla refuses. She wants pleasure, honesty, and a man willing to stay when the lights come on.

Then Beau pushes her away.

​

When Isla leaves to work for his handsome rival, Beau must accept her terms: no cruelty, no hiding, and surrender when she takes control.

​

He built an empire by controlling everything. She will teach him that love begins when he lets go.
