Beholden: A Second Chance Arranged Obligation Billionaire Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798994190012)

She refuses to be rescued. He refuses to walk away.

Until her father's arrest destroys everything-her fortune, her influence, and the company she helped build. Overnight, Sloane goes from queenmaker to cautionary tale, fighting to hold on to her dignity in a world that suddenly delights in watching her fall.

The last man she wants to see her like this is the one who's always wanted her.

Randall Parker has been in love with Sloane for years-watching, waiting, wanting. Now he's powerful enough to save her company and rebuild her reputation, and he's done pretending he doesn't crave her. He knows her sharp edges, her pride, her manipulations-and he wants her anyway.

But Randall doesn't fit Sloane's image of a clean hero.

When he drinks, his control slips. He becomes reckless, provocative, dangerously honest. A man she can't trust... and can't stop wanting. Especially when his restraint finally cracks and the desire between them ignites-heated, intimate, and impossible to deny.

Sloane refuses to be rescued.
Randall refuses to walk away.

As business meetings turn into lingering touches and late nights blur into stolen moments, the line between salvation and seduction disappears. To claim each other, they'll have to risk exposure, humiliation, and the kind of vulnerability neither has ever survived before.

Beholden is a steamy contemporary romance about obsession, power exchanged in the dark, and the intoxicating pull between a woman who won't kneel and a man desperate to prove he's worthy of her trust.
