Why Does 'The Weekend Retreat' Have So Many Twists?

Daisy Velasco has spent her life staying invisible because in a world ruled by power and money, being noticed can cost everything. As a junior employee in one of the country’s most elite corporations, she follows one rule: work hard, stay quiet, and never draw attention. Especially not from Liam Villarreal. Cold, brilliant, and impossibly powerful, Liam is the billionaire CEO everyone respects, and no one dares to cross. He doesn’t mix business with emotion. He doesn’t make exceptions.

Secrets can ruin careers. Scandals can destroy empires. And falling for a man like Liam Villarreal isn’t just dangerous it could be catastrophic. Because he doesn’t chase. He claims. And once he does, there may be no going back.

Words didn't form; instead, I pushed my ass backwards until it brushed against his erection. Sometime during his speech he'd freed it from the confines of his slacks. "Last chance, Charli." "Please."
