“So, you see, Mr. Winter,” Dimitra continued, “the app will allow you to take electronic transferring of funds one step further. The beta testing confirmed it’s reliability. We’ve worked out all the bugs and kinks. Since your local bank was kind enough to let us beta test, we thought we would give you first kick at the can in terms of an offer.”Magda stared at the computer screen in front of her, as Dimi finished the presentation. The minute she had walked in and met Ares Winter in person, she had felt like a bug on a microscope. He had been staring at her hard and his questions, while directed at the group of them, felt as if he were speaking to her and her alone.Magda wasn’t the strong confident type. Having parents who had sheltered her most of her life and a childhood of engaging in activities which c

Sunday morning, Magda was at the line waiting her turn to catch the next wave when a warm voice beside her sent a shiver down her spine.“Ms. Onassis, what a surprise.”She had left the house at the crack of dawn because she’d known the waves at this particular beach were going to be incredible this morning. Word had gotten out and when she’d gotten here as the sun came up there had easily been twenty people on the beach. She desperately had needed the distraction and the reason for it was now standing beside her. Curse her luck.She cast a sideways glance to the man beside her. “Mr. Winter, I’ve never seen you here before.”“Nor I you,” he shrugged at the coincidence. “I come here fairly frequently.”“I don’t come as often but one of the

Magda left the beach house annoyed with her friends. They were the best friends any girl could have but occasionally they got so caught up in shenanigans they forgot how amazing they were as independent women. Dimi was so hellbent on making her ex crazy, she was dragging them with her and while she would do whatever Dimi wanted because it is what best friends do, some of her plans were often extreme. Darya on the other hand was a punch first ask questions second kind of person and this morning she had told Dimi the best way to get Miklos Laskaris to sign divorce papers was to kidnap him, hold him at gunpoint and force him to put his signature on themThe entire conversation had escalated into a horrible plotting surrounding how they would do such a thing. Magda was quaking in her shoes they would actually try to accomplish Darya’s suggestion. Finally, she had said she needed to go to the grocery store to get a few things but really she needed a breath. She would go alon

Magda’s phone was on speaker and Sienna was squealing like a pig stuck with a poker.“Would you stop?”“I can’t,” Sienna gushed. “It’s so exciting and sexy. He took one look at you in the boardroom and set his sights on you.”“You’ve been spending too much time in the fiction section of the library,” Magda was putting dishes away from the dishwasher in the kitchen while she talked to her third best friend. “Quite possibly the section of the type of romance novels they sell in drugstores and airport bookstores.”“Who has time,” Sienna complained. “I’m trying to work on my thesis, visit mom, work in the library, and then work more on my thesis.”“And have you done any flirting with Mr. Private Security Detail?”“We’re talking about you and the billionaire banker who wants to bang you, not my crush on a man w

Magda sat on her bed, the headboard behind her with the curtains drawn, the lights off and hit the video call icon to call her parents.“Hi Mom, did I catch you at a bad time?”“No,” her mother sighed dramatically. “I am finishing for the day. Why you cannot call me at a normal hour is beyond me.”“Sorry. It’s four-thirty there, isn’t it?”“It is and I was getting ready to head home. You know how your father likes to have his dinner ready and on the table by six.”She kept her face neutral as she considered it wasn’t as if her mother was actually preparing, plating, or serving the meal.“Well, I won’t keep you mom. I only wanted to check in and let you know I’m fine.”“Well of course, you’re fine and I always will make time for your calls. You’re important to me.” Her mother gave an eye roll as if Magda should
