The Offer That Binds

By Claire Davis

What do you do when the one person you hate the most becomes the one person you can’t live without?

A bully by day when it comes to business and money, a playboy by night when it comes to pleasure. That is the reputation that precedes John Knight. He lives life the way he wants, no concern for the opinion of others. He cares for no one, is completely we have all been there before. Not the type of person you want to rely on to survive. Down on her luck financially, college student and full-time waitress Jessica gets rescued from an unlikely and overwhelming source, Billionaire John Knight makes her an offer that is impossible to refuse but terrifying to accept from a man whose affluence she had questioned from the start. Will the fine alpha billionaire really be a answer or will he be a major obstacle and a danger to innocent Jessica?
