The first book in Nicole Fox’s bestselling Akopov Bratva series, where a steamy office romance unfolds between Rowan St. Clair and her dangerously seductive boss, billionaire bad boy CEO Vincent Akopov, in this forbidden love story that blurs the lines between a passionate fantasy and reality.

Rowan St. Clair is completely and irrevocably in love with her boss, Vincent Akopov. To him, she’s been invisible for years. But that changes in a single moment.

An unexpected errand leads Rowan to stumble upon Vincent in an intimate encounter with another woman. Instead of the mortifying embarrassment she expects, she gets a wink that leaves her breathless. And the following day, she’s shocked to receive a promotion she didn’t ask for.

“Congratulations, Ms. St. Clair. You’re my new personal assistant.”

Thrust into Vincent’s opulent world of Park Avenue penthouses and private jets, Rowan discovers a boss who plays by his own rules. From whispered, scandalous promises during board meetings to Polaroids with explicit intent left in surprising places, Vincent isn’t just testing professional boundaries; he’s obliterating them. But Rowan plays the game too, refusing to back down as their fiery connection grows more dangerous by the day.

There’s one complication Vincent can’t ignore—he needs a wife to secure his father’s empire. And Rowan? She’s forced to endure the role of wing woman on every cringe-worthy date, sitting beside him as his hands wander where they shouldn’t.

What starts as sheer physical temptation spirals into something more, something Rowan never anticipated. But when two pink lines appear on a pregnancy test, every carefully constructed boundary comes crashing down.
