Demon CEO's Stormy Romance

Bailey played the perfect homemaker on social media. Known as Lori Laker, The Happy Homemaker, she purported that a housewife was no different from any small business owner. As such, the business of creating a blissful home life should be based on a solid business plan, solid professional alliances, and dynamite management skills. When she draws the attention of Chase Meadows, she is at a loss how to shake the determined CEO of the MGM Conglomerate without revealing secrets that could ruin her reputation. But there is absolutely no way she would ever tie herself to a man known as a demon in the business world with a world-renown reputation as emotionally unstable. He could be ice cold in business negotiations one minute and spewing dragon fire at an inept employee the next. Chase Meadows celebrated his thirty-fifth birthday alone with a bottle of Macallan’s whiskey and a rare steak. Life was good. He had exceeded his expectations and checked off every goal he had set for himself to reach before the age of forty—except for one. He always planned to marry and start a family by now. He wanted someone besides a housekeeper to come home to at night. He wanted a wife and two kids. Maybe a dog. He had tried to have a serious relationship before, but women annoyed him. More specifically, their expectations annoyed him. He wanted someone willing to take on the role of stay-at-home wife and mother without making spending his money a life’s goal. He wanted someone who put his happiness and needs first, someone who appreciated how hard he was willing to work for his family and rewarded him accordingly. He wanted someone to manage his household as efficiently as he managed his company. She should be healthy and bright and full of ideas but astute enough to know when to speak and when to accept his authority without question. When his personal assistant introduced him to the Happy Homemaker’s live stream, he was intrigued. When Chase ran into the same woman at a charity event and saw how succinctly she put a drunken date in his place, he knew she had the backbone to be his partner. The question was how to convince her.

The Fans Don't Lie

The comments scrolled by so rapidly that Bailey could only catch random words like fake, cheater, liar, con-artist. Never before had they had such an overwhelming response to a live stream not even after the publicity surrounding her supposed pregnancy and affair with a married man.

"What? What happened?"

Judy and the public relations director stood behind her looking over her shoulder.

Judy said, "We're still trying to work it all out, but it appears the fact you are single and have never been married has finally caught up with us."

"I'm surprised it hasn't before now. It's always been our weakness."

"Well, one of us was supposed to be married by now to resolve it before it came back to bite us in the butt."

"For goodness sake, Bailey, I've been trying! How many blind dates have I set you up on?"

"How many blind dates have you gone on? You're in this, too, you know."

"None. I'm behind-the-scenes talent unlike you."
