elt deliberate. The structured shoulders of my suit held my back straight, keeping my head high. I focused on keeping my breathing slow, filling my lungs completely, exactly as Adrian had told me to do before I left the apartment. The receptionist stopped outside a massive wooden double door at the end of the hall. The polished brass nameplate on the wall beside it read: CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER. "He is ready for you," the receptionist said softly, gesturing toward the door. "Good luck, Miss Bennett." "Thank you so much," I replied, swallowing down the dry lump in my throat. I reached out and grasped the heavy brass handle. The cold metal sent a quick shiver through my palm, but I turned it without hesitation and pushed the door open. The office was huge, flooded with bright, warm sunlight from floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out over the entire city. A large mahogany desk stood in the center, neat and organized with pristine stacks of paper, a thin laptop, and a steaming black coffee mug. At first, the room seemed empty. Then I heard a rustle of movement near the window. A man was standing with his back to me, looking out at the city. He was broad-shouldered and tall, dressed in an immaculate dark tailored suit that fit his athletic frame perfectly. He held a black pen between his fingers, tapping it gently against his hip as he read a document. I took two steps into the room, letting the heavy door click softly shut behind me. I cleared my throat, adjusting my leather folder. "Good morning," I began, my rehearsed line sitting right on the tip of my tongue, pitched in the confident, steady tone Luca and I had practiced in the bedroom mirror.

The Billionaire's Plus sized redemption

“Olivia Bennett once believed she'd found a love that saw all of her. Seven years later, she escapes that marriage with nothing but a suitcase and a body that flinches at raised voices. Taken in by her oldest friends, she's given one reckless, anonymous night to remember who she used to be - a night spent in the arms of a stranger at a jazz lounge who never asks for her last name. She never expects to see him again. Then she walks into Kingsley Tower for a job interview, and the stranger from that night is the billionaire CEO on the other side of the desk. Ethan Kingsley built an empire out of his father's failing company and buried his heart somewhere in the process - determined never to become the kind of man who controls a woman, like the father he watched destroy his mother. He didn't plan on hiring the woman who gave him the only honest night he's had in years. He didn't plan on falling for her either. But Olivia isn't the only one watching her rise. Chloe Whitmore has spent five years convinced the CEO's future belongs to her, and she will not lose it to a woman she considers beneath her. Damian Carter, the husband Olivia fled, refuses to accept that she survived without him - and when he discovers exactly where she landed, survival becomes a war. Between corporate sabotage, public humiliation, and a man determined to prove that healthy love exists, Olivia must decide whether she's willing to be seen again - not as a victim, not as a secretary, but as the woman she was always strong enough to become. She didn't get her power back by becoming smaller. She got it back by refusing to.”
