Blake braced himself against the wall behind me, his nose less than an inch from mine. "You might be able to fool everyone else into thinking that they're seeing the bottom of the iceberg, but I know that there's more. I've seen it in your eyes." I was speechless. I'd never wanted anyone more in my entire life.Lily Penrose has it made. With an online empire that would turn a Kardashian green with envy, she's a bonafide billionaire. Trolls? She gets rid of them with the snap of her fingers. Online bullies? Please. They can't touch her with a ten-foot pole. All she has to do is keep telling the world her secrets. Everything about her perfect life is bulletproof - or so she thinks. Someone is trying to ruin her reputation. Someone who has her most private, personal secrets tucked up their sleeve like a hidden royal flush. If those secrets got out, they'd destroy her. As fate would have it, she's speared with an instant connection when she meets Blake Alexander: A mysterious, damaged tall-dark-and-handsome Superman who values privacy above all. Normally he wouldn't care about silly things like reputation, but he's the sole guardian of his autistic sister. He has a few secrets of his own - secrets that could ruin his life if anyone knew. Blake feels the magical connection the instant he lays eyes on Lily, but won't admit it. It would be too risky to get close. Getting close would get him burned like Dickarus- er, Icarus and the Sun. It would be safer to hide in the secrecy of the shadows, but he can't resist an overwhelming urge to protect her...As they reluctantly get closer, the friction sparks and ignites, engulfing them in the flames of passion.They both feel like this is too good to be true, but can they put their differences aside and learn to trust one another? Or will their secrets destroy everything they've worked so hard to build?Author Notes: Enemies-to-lovers. A broody alpha hero. All the banter. Enough salt to fill a swimming pool and plenty of sizzling spice to make everything nice. Four lady billionaire BFFs, an angsty, tortured hero with a secret past and a big heart, and sex on the kitchen counter. Buckle up.
