The Real Deal by Brittney Sahin

A mysterious deal maker. A ruthless businessman. And now he’s on her board of directors . . .

Holly McGregor shouldn’t be attracted to someone with ulterior motives at her company. But she can’t avoid his unforgiving stare, deny their electric chemistry, or resist his touch, his mouth, the dangerous invitation she sees in his eyes.
Her family hates him, and the city fears him, but she knows there’s another side to Sebastian Renaud because he slipped–he let her witness the light beneath the dark. He’s protective and compassionate, and now that she’s had a taste, she only wants to discover more.
When Sebastian first laid eyes on Holly, all he saw was a woman he could never have. But when Holly gets caught in the crosshairs of a sick game of vengeance, he has no choice but to step into her life, and resisting her will seriously test his resolve.
He’ll do anything to keep Holly safe, but amid the biggest deal of his life, protecting her means facing his demons–consequences be damned.
