The CEO's Private Lesson: A Forbidden CEO Dark Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798257733505)

He was my best friend's father. He was 45, powerful, and completely off-limits. And on my 19th birthday, he became my biggest mistake... or my greatest temptation.

For three years, I played the part of the perfect scholarship student. I was the quiet girl from New Jersey who tutored his daughter and sat across from him at dinner, pretending my heart didn't hammer against my ribs every time his storm-gray eyes swept over me.

Daniel Harrington is a legend. Ruthless in the boardroom and untouchable in Manhattan society, he's a man who built an empire from nothing. To the world, he's the billionaire CEO. To me, he's the man who watches the city at 3:00 a.m. with a hunger that matches my own.

The Rules were simple:

1. Don't notice the silver at his temples.

2. Don't crave the touch of his hands.

3. Never let his daughter find out.

But when he corners me on his penthouse balcony under the Manhattan lights, the rules shatter. One forbidden kiss turns into a secret summer of "private lessons" in his kitchen and stolen nights in his bed.

Now, I'm living a double life. By day, I'm his daughter's best friend. By night, I'm the woman falling for a man twice my age.

We promised it would only be for the summer. We promised to be careful. But secrets this scandalous always have a breaking point-and when his daughter returns early from Paris, the explosion might destroy us all.

Can a love that defies every expectation survive the ultimate betrayal?
