Chris Redding

When Brandi Marsing approaches billionaire Zach Wilder, she thinks her job is simple: gain the trust of her father’s greatest rival, and find the dirt to bring him down. Brandi is shocked to learn that the handsome Zach is a better man then she thought, despite forcing her into a fake relationship one day after meeting. Will Brandi remain loyal…or will she fall in love with the enemy?

“I don’t need to force anyone into my bed, Miss Marsing.” He straightened. “This will be far more public. Probably painful for you and deliciously so for your father also.”
She wanted to gag at his ego. Jail was looking better and better. “Just call the cops.”
“You don’t want to hear my proposal?” he asked.
“Tell me what I’m choosing between,” she demanded.
“You either go to jail. Or...”
He let the word hang in the air and she resisted leaning forward in anticipation. “Or, you pretend to be my fiancé.”

His Rival's Daughter

Zach’s words hung in the air and Brandi wasn’t sure she heard him correctly. “What did you say?”


She rose from her seat and walked away from Zach listening to his words carefully this time. 


“Your father owes money to the Mafia.”


She spun back to look at him. “I don’t believe you.”


He sighed and rubbed his eyes. “Why would I lie?”


“Because you want me to rat out my father so you can take over his company.”


She was seeing right through Zachary Wilder now. All those niceties and sweetness were to charm her into letting down her guard. Now she wished she’d slept with him because it would only have been sex. He would have let his guard down and she’d be triumphant. 


“I have no need to take over your father's company. I can show you my accounting. I’m solvent and not in debt.”


She couldn’t fathom why else he would lie to her. She knew that he and her father had had a nasty falling out. Was this his revenge for being left without a mentor?
