Sold to the CEO

“He thinks she left him for a price. She left him to save a life. ​Three years ago, Krystal was the scholarship girl who captured the heart of New York's most eligible billionaire heir. Their marriage was a fairy tale-until the King of the city, Alex's father, tore it apart. Faced with a choice between her husband's love and her dying mother's survival, Krystal signed the divorce papers and vanished. ​Now, Krystal is back in the concrete jungle, broken and desperate. Blacklisted by every firm in the city thanks to her former father-in-law, she has only one door left open: a Personal Assistant position at Valerius Enterprises. ​The man behind the mahogany desk isn't the boy who once loved her. Alex Valerius is now a cold, ruthless titan who views Krystal as a gold-digging betrayer. He's determined to make her pay for leaving him, using his power to keep her bound to his side-and his bed. ​Krystal endures his scorn and his touch, fueled by a secret Alex can never know. Because every night, she returns home to Lysander, the three-year-old son who carries the Valerius eyes and his father's stubborn chin. ​Krystal is playing a dangerous game. She needs the paycheck to keep Lysander safe, but the more Alex pulls her back into his world, the harder it is to hide the truth: The heir to the Valerius empire isn't sitting in the CEO's chair-he's waiting for his mommy to come home.”
