Growing up as the CEO's son, I learned early that control is everything. I don't get distracted, and I don't break rules. But then Madison Reid was assigned to my team. She's sharp, relentless, and incapable of letting things go. She questions decisions she shouldn't, pushes boundaries she doesn't see, and manages to get under my skin without even trying. She's a complication I didn't ask for. And one I can't seem to ignore.

Passing the bar was the easy part. Now I'm trying to prove I deserve this job, even with the impossible hours, the office politics, and the arrogant man I report to. Julian Moreau is cold, calculating, and annoyingly good at pretending I don't get under his skin. Which would bother me a lot less if he didn't keep showing up in my head when I least expect it. I don't want this. It's the last thing I need. But there's something building between us, and pretending it isn't there is getting harder by the day.
