Below Deck meets Billionaire Romance in this fresh and captivating romance set on a megayacht in the Mediterranean...

My boyfriend's billionaire boss always gets what he wants.

Menacingly handsome and unquestionably powerful, Theo Whitman need only snap his fingers to have a flock of supermodels fall at his feet. So when his steel-gray eyes first meet mine, I expect him to pass right over me, to not give so much as a second thought to my presence.

Instead, he sees me.

Truly sees me.

And for a girl who prefers to hide behind her camera lens, it's the most unnerving experience of my life.

Until he asks me to stay on his yacht for the summer.

All I have to do to earn my keep is be Theo's on-call photographer when he has guests, and I'll get a free ride through the Mediterranean with my boyfriend. Easy peasy.

Still, my skin prickles in warning when I say yes. As the humid days fade into balmy nights, I can't seem to avoid Theo. And when he finds me, it's like a rabbit running into a wolf.

His intense gaze immobilizes me.

The way he speaks strips me bare.

Every brush of his skin sears me like a violent flame.

My boyfriend's billionaire boss always gets what he wants.

And this time, I think he wants me.
