He's a billionaire, hurt in the past. She's a country girl with no idea who he is. Will a case of mistaken identity lead to happily ever after or will his well-intentioned charade tear them apart?

But when Genevieve Willis walks into the Schultz building, ranting about her meeting with the cold fish head of the company, unaware that’s exactly who she’s speaking to, he’s immediately drawn to her beauty and sense of humor. Sebastian can’t resist this opportunity to finally get to know a woman without the stigma of the Schultz name, so he introduces himself as Kurtis from Public Relations, and implores his playboy younger brother to act as president in his place. Genevieve can’t believe her luck landing her dream job, and she can’t stop thinking about Kurtis, the sweet PR guy, she met on her first day. When they’re thrown together to work on the biggest charity event of the year, the attraction between them grows stronger. But something’s off with Kurtis, and she can’t quite put her finger on it. As they spend more time together and the fundraiser gets closer, will it become impossible for Sebastian to conceal his real identity? And will Genevieve forgive him when she learns the truth?

The Billionaire Who Wasn't


Book Description

The astonishing life of the modest New Jersey businessman who anonymously gave away 10 billion dollars and inspired the "giving while living" movement. In this bestselling book, Conor O'Clery reveals the inspiring life story of Chuck Feeney, known as the "James Bond of philanthropy." Feeney was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey, to a blue-collar Irish-American family during the Depression. After service in the Korean War, he made a fortune as founder of Duty Free Shoppers, the world's largest duty-free retail chain. By 1988, he was hailed by Forbes Magazine as the twenty-fourth richest American alive. But secretly Feeney had already transferred all his wealth to his foundation, Atlantic Philanthropies. Only in 1997 when he sold his duty free interests, was he "outed" as one of the greatest and most mysterious American philanthropists in modern times, who had anonymously funded hospitals and universities from San Francisco to Limerick to New York to Brisbane. His example convinced Bill Gates and Warren Buffett to give away their fortunes during their lifetime, known as the giving pledge.

So when a psychic informs Veronica that her fated soul mate is Frederick Knight "The King of Players," Veronica does what any sensible woman would do - she runs. A twist of fate lands Veronica in the depths of a pitch-black cave system with a man she's never met and can't see. As Veronica and Sam struggle to survive they open up, share their secrets, and risk their lives for each other.

The man Veronica swore she'd never, ever, ever love. In fact, she loathed him at first sight. And if they make it out of the cave alive, and Veronica sees him for the first time, she'll loathe him again. Won't she?

And anyway, I knew that a multimillionaire Maori CEO with too many muscles, a tribal tattoo, and a take-no-prisoners attitude was way, way out of my league. So, no, I didn't ask him to, but he rescued me anyway. Because Hemi was fierce. But you know what I found out? So was I.
