Claiming Her Innocence (Billionaires Ever After, #2) / Billionaires Ever After (ePub)

A surly billionaire who had a soft spot for one woman. A gorgeous lady whose bright smile reminded him of sunshine. Years of bright burning embers that erupted into the flames of pure passion.

In the lavish realm of a grumpy billionaire, Ryan held his most forbidden desire buried deep: an enduring crush on his closest friend, Poppy. The girl with a smile like sunshine that illuminated his world. Their bond was unbreakable, yet he always held her at arm's length, viewing her as beyond his reach. He dreaded that crossing into romance might endanger the most precious friendship he cherished.

If only Ryan didn't find Poppy so captivating and flawless. She was beautiful and had curves that would make the devil fall to his knees. He defied his one rule and leaned in for a kiss... and she met him halfway. In an instant, their entire existence shifted irrevocably.

Poppy wanted him to kiss her. She clutched his shirt and drew him in, desperately kissing him back. She seemed to need his touch. All his years of silent pining led to a tidal wave of ferocious hunger crashing down on her shores. They were soon carried away with their wild passion. And it didn't stop at a one night stand.

They both needed each other like they needed the next breath. At least, he thought they did.

As they navigated this delicate new dynamic between them, a surge of possessiveness threatened to upend everything. The fear of losing her friendship loomed large... but he found himself unable to resist claiming her with a primal desire.

Could he muster the courage to lay bare his true emotions and persuade her to take a leap with him, despite the forbidden nature of their bond? Or would uncertainty tether them both down, leaving them merely as friends, always yearning for something more?
