DISCOUNT: Precious Things
DISCOUNT: Precious Things
Success, wealth, respect are never enough. Until her. She sees a man, not his reputation or disability. Will she stay when even his name is a lie?
Benjamin Prescott Roth is a self-made man. Everything he has – possessions, wealth, prestige, recognition for his accomplishments – he earned. On his own. He claimed being Deaf never defined him.
Claimed, or not, his father's rejection did.
"You'll never amount to anything..."
Every accomplishment has been to prove his father wrong. Then Jewell Kincaid is hired as his assistant and Benjamin Roth is a lost man. Jewell is breathtaking, feisty, intelligent, independent, and so much more than an assistant to him. She is everything Benjamin needs, but never knew he wanted.
She gets past his walls without even trying. She makes him happy. But the fantasy can only last so long.
Jewell Kincaid’s plan had been to advance her career with a new job at Bulwark Mutual Funds; the plan most definitely hadn’t been to clash with the ego of fund manager Benjamin Roth. When she’s offered a job as his assistant, she accepted, but falling in love hadn’t been part of that plan, either.
When the foundation of his life crumbles, Jewell is there. If his life is a lie, if every battle has been for nothing, if he can't accept who he really is, how can she?
