LOGINOne night of whispered promises in silk sheets was all it took to turn Sophia Mitchell's world upside down. Walking away from her own wedding was supposed to be the hardest part of her year—until she discovers the mysterious silver fox who gave her the most passionate night of her life is none other than Marcus Henderson: ruthless billionaire, corporate legend, and her ex-fiancé's father. Now she's carrying his child. Every touch is forbidden, every kiss a betrayal, but their magnetic pull is impossible to resist. As morning sickness threatens to expose their secret and family tensions reach a breaking point, Sophia must choose between her reputation and her heart. Marcus Henderson built his empire with iron control, but one taste of Sophia has him risking everything—his marriage, his company, and his relationship with his son. When scandal threatens to destroy them both, will he choose his family legacy or fight for a love that was never supposed to exist? Some mistakes are worth making twice...especially when they feel this right.
