When billionaire tycoon Philip Caldwell dies unexpectedly, his greedy and power-hungry family gathers to claim their piece of his vast fortune. But imagine their shock when his will is read, revealing that everything—his estate, his companies, his billions—has been left to his young caregiver, 23-year-old Astrid Bennett.  

With her newly found unimaginable wealth Astrid becomes the target of Philip’s vengeful family, who will stop at nothing to take back what they believe is rightfully theirs. With no allies and danger lurking in the shadows, Astrid’s only hope lies in Cole Donovan, her mysterious and fiercely protective bodyguard.  

Haunted by his own troubled past, Cole has sworn to keep Astrid safe, no matter the cost. But as the threats grow and duty gives way to desire, Astrid must decide if she can trust the one man willing to risk everything for her—or if her inheritance will cost her life.

Overnight Heiress

Chloe's voice startled me. My pulse jumped, and I hurriedly shoved the letter into the second drawer, making sure it was out of sight before taking a steadying breath.

I walked over and unlocked the door.

The second it opened, Chloe pushed her way inside, eyes blazing.

"What the hell, Astrid? Now you're friends with Ashley? Are you begging for someone to kill you off?" she half-yelled, her arms crossing tightly over her chest.

I sighed and sank onto the bed, rubbing my temples. The last thing I needed was another argument. My mind was still tangled with thoughts of Nicholas—of seeing him, of hearing his voice, of the letter now hidden in my drawer.

"Answer me, Astrid." Chloe's voice sharpened. "You may be an heiress now, but I'm still your older sister. It's my job to protect you."

"I don't need your protection!" The words snapped out of me before I could stop them, harsher than I intended.
