Halani Harper is a brilliant mind who is undervalued and under estimated. She built her cybersecurity firm from the ground up only to wake up one morning and find it sold out from under her. She is betrayed by her business partner and her company is acquired by a man she can’t respect. Azien Maddox is a billionaire shark in the tech world, known for buying companies and stripping them for parts. When he signs the deal to purchase Harper-Ward he doesn’t expect to acquire the previous owner. She’s not a deal he can close and walk away from especially since the program he paid millions for is useless without her. Halani forces Azien into a deal: she stays, runs the show, and gets back partial ownership of her company. Unfortunately working with Azien means stepping into his world. One where power is a game and control is a currency. She might have won the battle but with a man like Azien, winning the war is another story. It’s no longer just business when emotions are involved.
