I accidentally kissed my new boss.

I mean it's not like I tripped and my lips just smashed into his. The kiss was intentional, but in my defense, I didn't know who he was at the time. Though, that changes when I show up for my first day in the office.

A contract was signed when I took this job. One that states dating within the workspace is strictly prohibited. This should be easy enough. I just have to make sure I don't kiss him again. Right?

Wrong.

Colin Adamson knows what he wants and that's me. He might be respectful of my need for time to figure out how much I'm willing to risk, but that doesn't mean I don't see him. A sexy, British man who looks at me like I'm the best prize he could ever win.

I just have to decide if the game is worth playing.

A Mutually Beneficial Secret is a secret office relationship and spicy romantic comedy. It's told in dual POV and is a full-length standalone included in The Unexpected Series that can be read in any order, but best consumed consecutively. This is the final book in the series.
