Dear Sexy AF Intern, I know you don't particularly care that I'm the CEO of this company, and you're just an intern. I also know you're not impressed by my power or my wealth, and that's fine.

While you're too disciplined to act on it, I'm not. And the night you stepped into my limo, all bets were off.

There's a fire between us I never expected. A connection I haven't felt in so long. One kiss, and I'm losing all control. But what will happen when she finds out who I really am?
