He is a handsome, grumpy, single-dad billionaire boss. She is a lovely single mom haunted by a past betrayal. Together, they have a second chance at love—if they can just face the challenges life throws at them.

Years ago, I had a secret crush on this tall, handsome man. His grey eyes made my heart melt. When I look into them now, they stir up emotions that I can’t even name. I feel desired, wanted… maybe even cherished .

Hi. I’m Lily Johnson. Also known as “Emma’s mom.”

My little girl is four years old, and I love her to the moon and back.

I’ve navigated single motherhood well, even though I bear deep hurts from the past. Things are tough financially, and I don’t trust men anymore.

Fortunately, my best friend Olivia is there for us. She even arranged with her twin brother, billionaire Blake Harrington, to give me a job. He is a single dad to six-year-old Ethan.

Working together and seeing our children become friends, Blake and I are forging a connection. Our destinies are intertwining.

Yet I wonder what choice is

To keep my heart locked safely away?

Or to take a chance at a love beyond anything I’ve ever imagined.
