He wanted to teach her a lesson but he’s about to get schooled.

Ryder Neyland grew up immersed in the cutthroat world of million-dollar deals. From his father’s CEO friends, he learned how to handle people and money, and quickly learned rule number one: never allow anyone to cross him without retribution.

When he learns the identity of a small-time ad exec who masterminded the advertisement that not only cost him millions of dollars, but made him look like a corporate bully, he sets out to put the woman in her place.

Melanie Cai is ecstatic when, for once, her boss gives her full credit for the campaign she hopes will launch her career. Which makes it all the more intriguing when Ryder begins seducing her in a decidedly non-gourmet diner, apparently thinking she doesn’t recognize him. He’s sexy. She’s tempted. Why not play along?

It isn’t long before Ryder’s plan for revenge starts running off the rails. Melanie may have killer curves, but she doesn’t easily bend to his manipulations. And soon she has him not only rethinking his world view, but also his future.

Warning: Contains a high-powered executive who isn’t used to hearing β€œno”, and a half African-American, half Chinese ad exec who knows her placeβ€”and it ain’t under his thumb. Unless that thumb is right where she wants it…
