THE BILLIONAIRE'S FORBIDDEN LOVE
Billionaires
Carter Hayes had spent her life in the shadows of New York City's elite, working as a concierge at the prestigious Blackwood Hotel-where the rich played and the powerful ruled. She had seen men like "Adrian Blackwood" before. Arrogant. Untouchable. Dripping with wealth and wrapped in secrets.
But Adrian wasn't just any billionaire. He was the heir to the "Blackwood Empire", a man who carried his family's legacy like an unbreakable chain. To the world, he was ruthless. To his business rivals, he was feared. To Carter, he was a problem-because for some reason, the most powerful man in Manhattan had made "her" his weakness.
It started with fleeting glances. A stolen moment in the lobby. Then, one night, everything changed.
A winter storm shut down the city, trapping Carter and a handful of guests inside the hotel. Adrian canceled a billion-dollar deal that night, his mood dark and unreadable. When he found Carter alone in the dimly lit lounge, something shifted.
"Have a drink with me," he said.
It wasn't a request.
One drink turned into something more-a conversation that cracked his walls, a touch that ignited a fire between them. Adrian wasn't just the ruthless CEO the world knew. He was a man burdened by a name, by expectations, by a past that refused to let go.
Carter knew she shouldn't get involved. "Men like him didn't love women like her."
But when he whispered, "I've spent my whole life building a legacy, but with you, I just want to be a man," she knew she was already his.
What she didn't know was that Adrian's world wouldn't let them be together. His family had plans, his empire had expectations, and the woman he loved? She was never meant to be part of his legacy.
Now, he had to make a choice.
Would he sacrifice "love" for "legacy"?
Or would he rewrite the rules-for her?
