The Broken Empire ebook

Sebastian Marchetti has spent seven years building an empire he trusts no one else to touch. Six cracked ribs and a hostile takeover later, he can't even button his own shirt, let alone run his company alone. Claire Ellison is the one person immune to his money, his name, and his carefully managed charm, the physical therapist hired to fix what a violent attack broke, and the only one who refuses to let him hide behind either. Their slow burn deepens with every forced proximity session in his penthouse, until his half brother sees an opening: a board vote eleven days out, and a filing that could use Sebastian's every vulnerability, including her, as ammunition. Sebastian has one choice left. Keep managing everyone at arm's length the way he always has, and lose the only person who's ever refused to let him win alone. Or tear down the wall he's spent his whole adult life building, and risk the empire his father died to leave him. Some empires are worth losing. This one was never worth holding onto without her. If you love steamy, slow burn alpha billionaire romance with a wounded hero, forced proximity healing, and a heroine who refuses to be managed, The Broken Empire is your next obsession. One click now and fall for the CEO who finally learns that letting someone in isn't the fracture he always feared. It's the fix.
