Lockwood & Co

Elle pensait ne passer qu’un simple entretien d’embauche. Lui ne cherchait pas une assistante… mais un moyen de régler un problème bien plus personnel. Alaya, jeune femme ambitieuse mais ruinée par les dettes laissées par son père, se présente dans la luxueuse tour d’Aiden Kane, PDG froid, impitoyable et connu pour ne jamais mêler affaires et sentiments.

Entre voyages d’affaires aux quatre coins du monde, soirées mondaines où chaque geste est scruté, et un milliardaire qui semble cacher plus de blessures que de richesses, Alaya découvre que ce contrat pourrait bien lui coûter plus que son cœur… et que dans ce jeu dangereux, rompre l’accord pourrait être la plus grave des erreurs.
