Sophia Evans never expected that landing a job at Kingston Enterprises would turn her life upside down. A hardworking woman with dreams of making it big in the corporate world, she is determined to prove herself. But everything changes when she crosses paths with the company's enigmatic CEO, Alexander Kingston.

Alexander is ruthless in business and even colder in matters of the heart. Having built his empire on discipline and control, he sees love as a weakness—until Sophia storms into his life. She’s different from the women he’s used to. Bold, intelligent, and unafraid to challenge him, she awakens emotions he’s spent years suppressing.

As the tension between them grows, so do the obstacles. From an ex-fiancée who refuses to let go to a rival billionaire determined to claim Sophia for himself, their love is tested at every turn. And when secrets from Alexander’s past threaten to destroy everything, Sophia must decide if loving him is worth the risk.

Will she melt the heart of the untouchable CEO, or will their love become just another business deal gone wrong?

A story of passion, power, and love against the odds—My CEO is a romance that proves even the coldest hearts can be warmed.

My CEO 1

Sophia walked into Kingston Enterprises the next morning with her usual confidence, but something felt… different. Maybe it was the way Alexander had looked at her last night, or the fact that he had actually given her a compliment. Whatever it was, she knew one thing for sure—she was treading dangerous waters.

As she stepped into her office, an envelope lay on her desk. She frowned, picking it up. It was sealed with the company's official stamp.

Private Executive Retreat – Kingston Enterprises

Location: Kingston Villa, Lakeview Estates

Attendance: Mandatory for Senior Executives & Personal Assistants

Sophia's heart skipped. A retreat?

Her thoughts were interrupted when her office phone rang.

"Miss Evans, Mr. Kingston would like to see you in his office," the receptionist said.

Sophia took a breath, straightened her blouse, and made her way to his office.

Alexander was at his desk, reviewing documents, when she walked in. He didn't look up immediately, but when he did, his piercing gaze locked onto her.

Sophia did as he said, then crossed her arms. "You needed me?"

Alexander leaned back in his chair, his expression unreadable. "I assume you received the invitation."

"Yes. I didn't realize personal assistants were part of executive retreats."

His lips twitched slightly. "You're not just any assistant, Miss Evans."

Sophia ignored the way her stomach flipped at his words. "And what exactly happens at these retreats?"

"Meetings, strategy planning, team-building exercises." He paused. "It's also a test."

His gaze sharpened. "To see who thrives under pressure—and who breaks."

Sophia swallowed. "And what's my role in all of this?"

Alexander stood, stepping around his desk until he was just inches away from her. "You'll be by my side the entire time."

Her breath hitched. The air between them was thick again—charged with something unsaid.

Sophia met his gaze head-on. "Should I be?"

A ghost of a smirk crossed his face. "We'll find out, won't we?"

As Sophia walked out of his office, she knew one thing for certain—this retreat wasn't just about work.

Lines were already beginning to blur.

And she wasn't sure if she was ready for what came next.
