Summary

He has been my best friend since we were kids. My neighbor. My safe place. The one person who has always been there. But never mine. Damon Vale is a billionaire CEO with a devastating smile, commitment issues, and a different woman on his arm every week. To him, I’ve always been “one of the guys.” The girl he vents to after breakups. The friend he never looked at twice. Until one accidental moment changes everything. Now he can’t stop touching me. Can’t stop looking at me. Can’t stop dragging me into his bed. The problem? Damon doesn’t believe in love anymore. After his fiancée disappeared on their wedding day years ago, he swore off relationships completely. Sex is easy. Feelings are dangerous. And no matter how addictive we become together, he keeps reminding me this will never be anything more. But I’ve been in love with him since I was fifteen. So I make the worst decision possible: If I can’t have his heart, I’ll settle for his body. Then I end up pregnant. And just when I’m finally ready to tell him, the woman who destroyed him comes back with a heartbreaking secret... and suddenly I’m no longer the only woman fighting for him. Messy. Toxic. Addictive. Because falling for your billionaire best friend is one thing. Watching Damon choose someone else might destroy me. “Expecting what exactly?” Damon already looked like he regretted this conversation. “That I actually have a hot body under those oversized sweaters?” I continued innocently. “That I’m secretly built better than your little nightclub girlfriends?”  I grinned immediately. “You discovered I’m hot?” ”

Summary and Teaser


“You walked naked into your kitchen… I just—I wasn’t expecting that.”

I leaned back in my chair with a grin. “Expecting what exactly?” Damon already looked like he regretted this conversation.

“That I actually have a hot body under those oversized sweaters?” I continued innocently. “That I’m secretly built better than your little nightclub girlfriends?” I grinned immediately. “You discovered I’m hot?” ”

“You already know you’re attractive,” he muttered. “Don’t make this wiredMy eyebrows shot up immediately.“What exactly shocked you?” I pressed playfully. “That I’m actually a woman and not one of your frat brothers? News flash, Damon. I have big boobs and a tight pussy.”

“Fuck, Sofia. What the hell?”

“What? It’s true. I’m just stating facts.”

I don’t know what suddenly got into me.

Maybe it was years of being secretly in love with him. Maybe it was the fact that for the first time in his life, Damon had actually looked at my body instead of straight through me. Like suddenly he realized I wasn’t just his sarcastic best friend in oversized sweaters and sneakers. I was a woman.
