Executive Decision: A forbidden billionaire romance - Paperback

by Maude Winters (Author)

Sometimes, the most dangerous risks are the ones you swore you'd never take again...

When Daphne Delphine returns to Chicago's elite Gold Coast after her father's death, she's thrust into chaos. Her family's once-powerful retail empire is on the verge of collapse. Her marriage is in shambles. And the only man who can help her is the one she should stay far away from-Cal Markham, Chicago's charismatic billionaire mayor and her late father's best friend.

They have history: one unforgettable weekend in Hawaii ten years ago that neither of them has ever truly left behind. Now, as Cal steps in to help salvage Delphine Holdings, that spark reignites into something far more dangerous. But timing has never been their strong suit. He's fighting for his political future, and she's battling her brother for control of the family legacy.

When Daphne's vindictive ex-husband unleashes a scandal that threatens to destroy everything they've built, Cal is faced with an impossible choice: protect the career he's worked a lifetime for-or risk it all for the woman who sets his world on fire.
