SWEET TEMPTATION: Tempted by My Cold Boss

“You want me to pretend to date you.”

The words should have sounded ridiculous.

Instead, Ava Bennett feels her pulse quicken.

Damian Voss is the kind of man she should stay far away from: a cold, impossibly wealthy CEO who commands every room he enters and trusts almost no one. But when he asks Ava—the brilliant consultant who has challenged him from their very first boardroom meeting—to become his temporary public girlfriend, walking away could cost her far more than she is willing to lose.

There is only one problem.

Damian is the heir to the company Ava has spent years blaming for destroying her family's legacy.

He doesn't know who she really is.

And she doesn't know that the ruthless empire she holds responsible is not the whole story.

What begins as a carefully calculated arrangement quickly becomes something neither of them can control. Behind Damian's icy exterior is a man carrying eleven years of guilt, determined never to become the man his father was. Behind Ava's composure is a woman whose carefully guarded heart is beginning to betray her.

The closer they get, the harder it becomes to separate the fake from the real.

Every stolen glance feels dangerous.

Every touch threatens the secrets between them.

And every kiss brings Ava closer to the truth Damian has been trying to outrun.

Because some temptations are too powerful to resist.

And some love stories begin with the one person you were never supposed to want.

The Forbidden Fruit is a slow-burn billionaire CEO romance filled with powerful chemistry, emotional secrets, corporate intrigue, forbidden attraction, and a love neither of them saw coming.
