Three years ago, Hazel Vance made a choice that changed everything. One night of passion with a mysterious stranger at a masquerade ball left her with more than just memories—it left her with a son whose rare violet-blue eyes are a constant reminder of the father she'll never find.

Now a struggling single mother, Hazel desperately needs the executive assistant position at Sterling Group. The salary could finally give her two-year-old Leo the life he deserves. But her new boss, CEO Liam Sterling, is nothing like she expected.

Demanding, brilliant, and devastatingly handsome, Liam has a reputation for being impossible to work for. Most assistants don't last a week. When Hazel refuses to be intimidated by his cold demeanor and sharp tongue, something shifts between them. The attraction is immediate and electric, crackling through every professional interaction.

But it's his eyes that stop her cold. The same striking violet-blue shade that stares back at her every morning when she looks at her son.

As the tension between them builds and the lines between professional and personal begin to blur, Hazel finds herself caught between her desperate need for this job and her growing attraction to the one man who could destroy everything she's worked for.

She doesn't know that Liam has been searching for the mysterious woman from the masquerade ball ever since that night changed him forever. And he has no idea that the composed, fiery assistant who challenges him at every turn is the same woman who haunts his dreams.

When the truth finally comes to light, will it bring them together or tear apart the fragile new life Hazel has built for herself and her son?

Stella and I lay face to face in bed, simply gazing at each other with contented smiles. In that moment, I needed nothing more from life—her presence alone fulfilled me completely. After our tumultuous day and night, we had worked through our issues, reconnected on every level, made passionate love, and declared our feelings without any room for doubt.


"As much as I hate to break this spell," I sighed, glancing at the clock, "we really should get up. You'll need time to prepare for the wedding." I was thinking about all the mysterious beauty rituals that always made women chronically late for everything.


"No, we don't," she replied with surprising serenity.


My heart nearly stopped. "Please tell me you didn't cancel our wedding." I covered my face with my hands in desperation. "I swear I'll drag you to the nearest chapel and find any priest willing to marry us if you did." I sat upright, ready to argue a case I refused to lose.
