Once an heiress with everyone at her beck and call, Valerie lost everything after a single revelation. Six years later, Valerie is back to marry the 'poor' man her five years old daughter, Ruby has chosen to be her daddy. In the process, Valerie seeks to reclaim all that belongs to her and also to exact revenge on her enemies. What Valerie didn't see coming was that she would unlock a pandora box of secrets that would throw her and her daughter's life into more chaos. Greg Sinclair, the highly sought-after young billionaire, pretended to be a poor construction worker in order to become a part of Valerie and Ruby's lives. When he finally wins their trust, will he be able to hold his ground or will he be kicked out by both mother and daughter when his identity is revealed?
"Beautiful," he whispered, his breath dancing across her skin. Valerie's cheeks flushed, her eyes locked on his reflection in the mirror.
With a gentle tug, the dress slipped down her arms and dropped to the floor, pulling around her feet, revealing her black lace underwear. Greg's fingers traced the edge of the lace bra, his fingers slowly sliding into her cleavage, sending shivers down Valerie's spine.
"Savoring the view?" she asked, her voice husky, her eyes sparkling with amusement.
Greg's lips curled into a sly smile. "Guilty as charged," he replied, his eyes never leaving her flawless, silky skin.
The air charged with tension, the silence between them thick with unspoken desire.
Still focusing on their reflection in the mirror, Valerie's hands rose, her fingers brushing against the side of his face. "Then…what are you waiting for?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
