For the baby’s sake...
Secretive billionaire Daniel Lee is known for being ruthless. But he’s discovered his conscience when it comes to Christine Murray. Once, he’d smeared her name to win a campaign. Now that she’s back in the spotlight, with a precious baby to protect, Daniel’s determined to make amends. Even if rescuing Christine and her daughter means sweeping them away to a life he shares with no one...
He’ll do anything to earn Christine’s trust...and to have her in his bed. But now that the sexy single mom and her adorable daughter are on his turf, he can’t seem to let them go...
“I still don’t know why you’re doing this.”
“Maybe you don’t have to know why,” Daniel said.
“That’s a load of malarkey,” Christine replied.
“Malarkey? That’s not a word you hear every day.”
“I have this daughter, you see. She has a tendency to pick up on words and repeat them loudly when it’s most inconvenient.”
She was looking at him again with both eyes now. “Why, Daniel?”
“I didn’t want to be another person who let you down.”
“I don’t want you to be another person who lets me down,” she said softly.
For too much of his life, he had been concerned with his own interests. It was in his best interests to keep his siblings protected and the family business solvent. But what did he have to gain from Christine? What was in it for him to shield Marie?
Nothing. He had nothing to gain by doing any of this.
Funny how that hadn’t stopped him yet.

As always, he answered the phone on the first ring. “This is Daniel.”
The number was not one he recognized. The voice, on the other hand, was. “Lee! I knew I’d track your sorry butt down somehow.”
“Brian,” Daniel said, trying to keep the cringe out of his voice.
Brian White had plucked Daniel straight out of a political rally on the campus of Northwestern and taught him everything he knew. They had worked together for almost fourteen years on various political campaigns. Brian was a man without morals, scruples or ethics. As a result, he had an amazing track record in getting questionable candidates elected to public office.
“How have you been?” Daniel asked, stalling for time.
If Brian was calling him now, that only meant one thing. The man had been hired to run yet another political campaign and he wanted his right-hand man by his side. Never mind that Daniel Lee had walked away from politics and made it clear that he was never going back.
“I’ve got a job for you,” Brian said, sounding sure of himself.
It was hard to surprise Daniel Lee. He made secrets his business. So he wasn’t all that surprised that Brian was reaching out to him. What did surprise him was his own physical response. Daniel—a man who was rumored by his political enemies to not even have a soul—felt an anxious coiling in his stomach that was only dimly recognizable as guilt. “I have a job, Brian.”
