WHEN BILLIONAIRE ENIGMA LEON KING collides with elusive heiress ISABELLA HARRINGTON, it's an explosive meeting accompanied by less than love at first sight. With his takeover of the business empire around the corner, a runaway bride wasn't on Leon’s agenda - until now… Upon their battle in boardrooms and behind closed doors, neither is ready for the fire that sparks between them. Isabella means to preserve the legacy of her family while Leon is determined to show her exactly what their passion can mean outside the world of business. But as they slowly uncover the haunting secrets of their past, Tessa and Ryker realize it's not just bitter memories that linger in our hearts and minds. Isabella and Leon fall — hard but immovably in love, rewiring their shock-mangled hearts as everything they've known is ordained safe and not a little thrilling to be thrown into chaos.
As the months settled into a rhythm for Isabella and Leon, neither was living a life they had thought possible. Business was thriving, but not from some merciless ambition or cutthroat competition; from collaboration and mutual respect. Together, they had rebuilt what their families had once torn apart, and in so doing had created something far more valuable than money trust.
Isabella was, finally, officially out of the Harrington empire. She was still deeply involved in the decision-making process about its future, but her days were no longer drowned in the same power game that once defined her life. Instead, balance made her content: her managing her creative passions, while Leon, a partner in more ways than one, made sure the family legacies they fought for were intact.
