Why won’t he just leave me alone?

My life’s a mess. Mom’s sick, the bills are piling up, and my deadbeat brother won’t lift a finger to help. The last thing I need is a cocky flirt distracting me at my new job. But every time I turn around, there he is—offering help, flashing that infuriating grin, and inviting me out for drinks like we’re friends.

I don’t care if he’s annoyingly hot—that just makes it worse! Guys like him? All talk, no substance. Arrogant, persistent, and clearly after something. Probably thinks I’ll be his next conquest. No way am I falling for a sweaty construction worker, no matter how good he looks in those jeans. Carrick? Seriously, what kind of name is that anyway?

Carrick

Kelly Hanson hates me—and I can’t figure out why. All I’ve done is try to help her settle in as our new site office administrator. Sure, she’s exactly my type—smart, sporty, and with enough sass to light up the room—but I don’t date employees. Okay, so maybe I haven't told her that I'm the boss, but the opportunity hasn't really come up. And it’s not like she’s making it easy, treating me like I’m the enemy.

But there’s something about Kelly I can’t shake. Something real. Something my heart can’t ignore, no matter how hard she pushes me away. I’ve built my empire brick by brick, but maybe it’s time I worked just as hard for something—or someone—worth fighting for.

If you love fiery heroines, big-hearted billionaires, and heroes who know how to use their hands—in more ways than one—fall for Carrick in this steamy contemporary romance. Happily Ever After guaranteed!
