First crush. High school rival. Bitter enemy. Boss.

Ten years ago, he broke my heart. Now, he's my last resort.

I'll never forgive Matteo Ricco for turning his back on me, but with my mother sick and my father blacklisting me, I have no choice but to accept a job at his multi-billion-dollar company.

Even when the sinfully handsome and ruthless CEO demands I be his glorified assistant instead of the lawyer I fought so hard to become.

I don't know why Mr. Ricco is so intent on humiliating me, but nothing will make me quit. Not his calculating, hungry eyes. Not his wicked smirk.

And certainly not the heat coursing through my veins every time he looks at me.

Ruthless Mr. Ricco (Brutal Billionaire Bosses Book 1) is a scorchin' hot enemies to lovers workplace romance with forced proximity, a jealous/possessive hero, a strong, competent female lead, and a deliciously dirty battle of wills.

This story is intended for 18+ readers and includes mature content.

Can be read as a standalone. HEA guaranteed.
