"In my world, there is no asset I cannot acquire. Including you." "I'm sorry, Mr. Vance. In Austin, you enter my world by invitation only. Not by hostile takeover." She is the fiercely independent PR queen of Texas; he is the ruthless Silicon Valley emperor who dictates every variable. Five years ago, a passionate night left him hunting for the only woman who dared to outsmart him. Five years later, he descends with bodyguards, high-powered lawyers, and unlimited black cards, expecting an easy reclamation. Instead, he is met with a cold shoulder, two five-year-old geniuses who treat him like an unpaid intern, and the woman who refuses to be bought. "Want to be our dad? Start from the bottom." When a control freak learns to surrender, and a guarded queen learns to trust— It’s no longer just a reunion; it’s a fierce, emotional takeover where the boss finally meets his match.
