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 took my seat across from the interviewer. I hated keeping my interview a secret from Leilani, but if she knew what I was doing then she would try to stop me. She would rather the public believe her to be some terrible person when the people who truly knew her knew that she did nothing wrong.


Christina made the world think that my relationship with Leilani was wrong, was somehow tainted and rooted in filth, but that couldn’t have been farther from the truth.


Leilani was a magnetic force that I couldn’t escape if I wanted to. She was unlike any woman I had ever met. She was headstrong, determined and my favorite part of all, challenging. She encouraged me to think outside the box and never conform to playing anyone else’s game. She had let her father rule her mind for so long that after spending time with her mother I was sure that she had her head back on straight.
