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

I barely got any sleep that night. Not because of the nightmares. Not because of the suffocating feeling of being watched. Not even because of Cole invading my thoughts.

I slipped out of bed carefully, brushing my teeth and taking a quick shower. Then I pulled on a pair of grey sweatpants and a black hoodie, tying my hair up in a loose ponytail.

Quietly, I made my way to the door—only to freeze.
