The Billionaire's Temporary Stay: A Clean Novella: 9

He never stays. She never lets anyone close enough for it to matter. Billionaire executive Evan Mercer has built his career on short-term engagements: assess, recommend, leave. No attachments. No exceptions. When Cole Industries brings him in to guide a division through its leadership transition, he expects another clean exit. What he doesn't expect is Teagan Vaughn, the sharp, relentless senior manager who's been holding the division together for months without recognition or authority, and who sees through every strategy he's used to keep people at a distance. She believes in building what lasts. He believes in leaving before it breaks. But somewhere between late-night strategy sessions and a deal only the two of them can close, thirty days starts to feel like not nearly enough. And this time, walking away might cost him the only thing his career never accounted for.
