Joy Reyes is running out of options. One missed rent payment away from homelessness, she makes a desperate call to the last person she expects to answer, Alexander Montalban, the billionaire whose name appears more often in business headlines than in public. She asks for a job. He offers something stranger. "Make me laugh." For three months, Joy will live in his estate, follow his schedule, and earn more money than she's ever seen. Her task sounds ridiculous, but the paycheck is real and desperation leaves little room for pride. What begins as an arrangement quickly becomes something neither of them anticipated because Alexander isn't looking for entertainment. He's searching for something he's lost. And Joy is beginning to realize that behind the wealth, the power, and the carefully controlled image is a man carrying wounds no amount of money can fix. The more she learns about him, the harder it becomes to remember that her stay has an expiration date. Three months. That was the deal. But when you're the only reason a billionaire smiles, walking away may cost more than either of you expected.
