Leilani Williams is the woman that all women envy. She has the beauty, and the brains, and her presence alone commanded the attention of everyone in the room.

Ares Bateman is the man that every man wants to be. He’s strict and calculated, yet also the most misunderstood.

The one thing these two have in common is that they are both fighting for ownership of the same company. More specifically, her father’s company. Although they both want the same thing, they still can’t help but fall for each other, even though they’re rivals. 

Will Leilani and Ares get what they want in the end? Or will their love shine brighter than their need for power?

“Ares,” I whispered.

The words were suddenly stuck in my throat as his lips crashed onto mine. They were soft, captivating, and oh-so-delicious. This was not how the night was supposed to end, but I wasn’t going to complain.

The Billionaire's Rival

I had no idea what tonight would have in store for me. It would either be the best night of my life or be one of the worst decisions that I’ve ever made. I typically don’t go on dates, they’re pointless just like the false sense of love. Love wasn’t some infinite power; it was just feeling like lust and hunger.


I stopped the car in front of Leilani’s house and turned off the engine. We had texted earlier about what time to meet her, but she requested that I come to pick her up and that she keep the location to herself. I pulled out my phone and immediately found her name letting her know that I was outside. I would’ve knocked on the door, but I wasn’t sure if she lived with anyone else or not.


‘Then come inside. I’m running a little behind schedule, but the door is unlocked for you.’
