About this audiobook

Scarlett Voss has been standing in the Castellano Corp lobby for twenty-two minutes, which is long enough for the security guard to have flagged her. She has been tracking Dominic Castellano's arrivals for three weeks, timing them against the sunrise. He comes early. Always early, before security gets lazy and before the interns flood the lifts. Today she is not trying to get inside. Today she is going to catch him on the pavement. Three weeks ago a whistleblower at one of the company's plants in Ohio leaked documents suggesting it had been putting chemical waste into a groundwater source. Scarlett has those documents. What she does not have is a comment. His press office has stonewalled her, his lawyers have threatened her, and his security has walked her out of the building twice. *"Mr. Castellano! Scarlett Voss, The Brooklyn Chronicle."* What she is not telling him, or her editor, is why she needs this particular story this badly. Her brother Leo has been on a transplant list for eighteen months and is going downhill faster than anybody projected. Scarlett has twelve thousand dollars. She needs two million. She was twelve when she decided what she knows about men with money. Flat against the hallway wall, listening through a gap in the door while her mother asked the man who had been her father for twelve years to pay for the operation that would save her brother's life. He had it. His coat was already on. He walked out and shut the door behind him. So when Dominic surprises everybody, including himself, by offering her three weeks of access, on the condition that nothing gets published without his approval, Scarlett says yes. She has a signed contract in her bag giving her four weeks to file five thousand words, and a reason for needing the money that she has told nobody. What she finds is not the story she pitched. A man who has spent three years and eight million dollars cleaning up something his father did. A sister who is dead. A board being worked from the inside. And an email deleted from a dead man's account, which Dominic goes very still about when she raises it. A billionaire romance told in Scarlett's own voice, about a journalist who is right about the company and wrong about the man, and two people who each have an excellent reason not to be believed. The romance is closed-door.
