I never wanted to see him again. But fate had other plans.
Five years ago, I gave my heart to Arthur Valentim, a man who loved me, then destroyed me. Now he’s my boss — colder, richer, and even more untouchable than before. And he still doesn’t know my secret… that the little girl I’m raising alone is his.
I swore I’d never forgive him. But every time his eyes find mine, I feel everything I tried to forget coming back to life — the love, the pain, the unfinished story between us.
Arthur can buy anything he wants. But this time, what he wants is something money can’t fix. He wants us.

Simply.because it was too long. It.just kept dragging and I really.didn't like the hero. He walked out.on her. And he wasn't celibate either despite all his talk.of his regret and undying love for her. If he hadn't run into her, he would have never looked for her. He never did before. His I never really loved anyone like I loved her speculation after he saw her again was a buzz kill. That happened at 20% and after that I just was skeptical. He told her he would be back but she knew he wouldn't. even at 18 she was more mature than his 28 year old self. His parents were evil too. I just wanted to.like this book so much but I couldn't. Ana Clare was a very sweet little girl and I liked Livia too. They get an HEA but I just kept thinking what if they never ran into each other? Would he have ever searched? I am not sure. That sucked.
