Fortune's Forgotten Daughter
“"You're in my house, in my space, under my roof-" "And somehow still not under you. Must be killing you." Anya Petrova doesn't belong in a Manhattan penthouse. She's a preschool teacher, a single mom, and a woman who's worked too hard to be bossed around by billionaires in designer suits. But when her estranged, obscenely wealthy biological father dies, his will changes everything. Suddenly, Anya is promised a $28 million inheritance-on one impossible condition: She has to live for one year under the same roof as her cold, arrogant half-brother, Dimitri Volkov. There's just one problem. They've met before. Five years ago, at a masquerade gala, she shared one unforgettable, anonymous night with a magnetic stranger. No names. No rules. Just raw heat and stolen whispers. Then she disappeared before dawn... and discovered she was pregnant. Now, the man she never stopped thinking about is staring at her across a dining room table, wearing a tailored suit, and calling her "Miss Petrova." And he has no idea the little girl drawing on his marble floors is his. Dimitri Volkov doesn't make mistakes. He builds empires, buries enemies, and doesn't believe in fairy tales. But Anya-mouthy, maddening, maddeningly familiar-has a way of cracking his control. She challenges him. Tempts him. Wakes something dangerous inside him. He's not sure if he wants to claim her-or destroy her. But in a penthouse full of secrets, power plays, and shared beds... the line between hate and hunger gets very, very thin. And when the truth finally comes out? There'll be no turning back.”
