The Billionaire's Ultimatum

The Billionaire's UltimatumBy Wilma AsvaFive years ago, I made the most logical, practical choice of my life. And it cost me the only man I ever loved.Julian Thorne was brilliant, kind, and completely broke. When my family's legacy teetered on the edge of absolute ruin, I couldn't wait for his tech prototypes to fund our future. I chose safety over passion. I married a man of established wealth, leaving Julian behind with a broken heart.Now, my gilded cage is crumbling. My husband's toxic debts are dragging our company into bankruptcy, and our only remaining lifeline is a ruthless corporate buyout.Enter the new majority shareholder: Julian Thorne.He is no longer the struggling inventor I once knew. He is a billionaire titan, cold as ice, and he holds my entire future in his hands. He isn't here to save me; he is here to completely dismantle my husband's empire. To make matters worse, Julian enforces a strict ninety-day transition clause, demanding I work directly under his command.Trapped in the high-stakes crossfire of his corporate takeover, the freezing tension between us soon melts into a dangerous, undeniable heat. He wants to show me exactly what I threw away. I want to prove I am no longer the coward who ran.But in a boardroom game of vengeance and lingering desire, the lines between punishment and passion quickly blur. When the ink finally dries, will he leave me in the ruins of my own making, or is it not too late for a second chance?
