Charming The Sick Billionaire : A Fun And Flirty Cure.
Adrian Blackwood…
The Ghost Heir was a name whispered in every corner of the city.
CEO of Blackwood Enterprises, he was a man wrapped in mystery and fear.
No one had ever seen his face, and no one had ever touched him.
Cloaked in gloves and a mask, he was a figure of endless rumors: some claimed he was hideous beneath the mask, while others whispered of a devastating handsomeness.
Yet, the darker rumors prevailed, reflecting a man feared and enigmatic.
What few knew was that Adrian suffered from an illness no doctor could cure.
He had journeyed across the globe, seeking answers, but found none.
His affliction was not one of the body, but of the mind, a psychological scar left by a near-fatal assassination attempt.
This trauma had built walls around him, making human contact impossible
Then, there was Nova Quinn, a bright, 22-year-old with a jovial spirit and an ordinary office job.
Unbeknownst to her, she would become the unexpected cure to Adrian’s affliction.
As their paths crossed, the mystery deepened: would Nova’s presence heal Adrian, or would it draw them both into greater danger?
For as Adrian’s heart began to open, the killer who had once threatened him would return, putting Nova’s life in peril. And so, the journey of healing and danger intertwined, creating a story far beyond mere romance…
Excerpt ^^
“Get off me. Right. This instant,” Adrian said, irritation sharp in his voice.
Nova did the exact opposite.
Her legs tightened around his waist as she clung to his shoulder, nails digging in. Pure horror was written across her face.
“But… but… I saw a cockroach!” she screamed, refusing to let go.
He froze.
“…What?”
“Oh no. Oh no no no,” she whispered, eyes widening in terror.
“What?” he asked again, now genuinely confused.
“Don’t move,” Nova said suddenly.
She raised her purse slowly into the air.
Adrian frowned. “Why are you…wait, what are you…”
WHACK.
“AAAA!!!”
