But that’s only where his problems start.
Ava Collins is ready to move on from her marriage of convenience. Except, that’s not quite convenient for her husband.
Alex is still in love with her, and now, there are mysterious errors in his business’s bottom line, and the only person he trusts to help him untangle it…is Ava.
But as the evidence starts to point toward a hidden scheme by a shadowy and powerful organization, Alex and Ava are pulled deeper into dangerous territory…and into unresolved feelings neither can ignore.
Can Alex win in both business and love, or will their second chance slip away like the money in his accounts?

Alex Stone ran a shaky hand through his hair as his jaw tightened to the point of pain. He stared down at the text beaming from his screen until the display dimmed and finally died. Just like his hopes.
He had always expected it. But he still hadn’t been prepared for it.
He drummed his fingertips on the glass desk that sat in front of the massive window in his office. His stomach twisted into a knot as he considered his response, his jaw clenching tightly.
Why had he come to the office today, of all days? It seemed like a cruel joke now. He rarely bothered to show up here these days. After building StoneCorp into a multi-billionaire dollar company, he didn’t feel the need to bother keeping normal business hours.
He’d made his fortune, and he continued to build it—usually from the comfort of his home. It figured the one day he’d decided to make a reappearance would be the worst day of his life.
Why had he thought this wouldn’t happen? Why was this coming as such a blow?
He tapped his phone, bringing it back to life. His trembling fingers hovered over the virtual keyboard. Before he could type a response, he shook his head and turned off the display, shoving it away.
He flicked on his screen, trying to focus on the document shining from it. Another problem.
He stared at the numbers filling the screen but found himself distracted. Instead, he toggled into another program, his frustrations pouring out through his fingertips as he pounded the keys. Characters filled the screen as he worked feverishly.
The lines of code that scrolled past on his screen provided a soothing balm for his soul. The kinks in his muscles and his mind began to ease away as he continued to labor.
After several minutes of typing, he slapped the enter key. His code processed, the machine in front of him being broken down into bits and broadcast through cyberspace until it found its mark.
The window on his screen, green characters glowing against a black background, melted away, replaced by something else.
He leaned forward as he studied the image forming on the monitor. The corners of his lips tugged up as the image of a woman filled his massive, curved screen.
