Broken Deal (Windy City Billionaires #2)

Sophia

In front of the world, I'm the loud, funny best friend. The perfect eldest daughter. The talented journalist. The one who plays the game but never lets her heart get involved. But underneath, I’m a mess—hiding from the one thing I fear love.

Then I meet Lorenzo Mancini, the infamous billionaire player. Writing an article about him was supposed to be just another assignment, but deal by deal, we’re pulled into a game neither of us should entertain. He's not who I expected, and the more time we start to spend together, the more he makes me question everything.

Falling for him would be a mistake. We’re a disaster in the making.

But what if, after all the hiding, love is the one risk worth taking?

Lorenzo

I was raised to carry the Mancini legacy, trained to think like a businessman and never look back. Love? That’s for people who know what it is—I never did. I fill the emptiness with games and women, avoiding the this isn’t the life I want.

Then Sophia Evans walks into my life. She’s smart, stubborn, and stronger than anyone I’ve met. Working with her on that article was just another excuse to play a game, another way to get closer to something I knew I couldn’t have. But soon, the lines blurred, and before I knew it, it started to become something deeper.

Wanting her should be the last thing on my mind. I could never be the man for her.

But what if, after all the running, this is the destiny I never saw coming?
