NOTE: Book was retitled as "The Billionaire's Pursuit"
Kerri Wilson, who had felt abandoned by her family since she was very young, had to leave her Hong Kong job when people started looking too closely. And the only one she could turn to was Natalie, a friend in the US, who had just gotten married. Upon arriving in the US, she found to her surprise that her ride was none other than Ethan Lloyd, a man she had a one-night-stand with back when she was in college. Kerri wanted no-strings-attached sex because she was afraid of returning to her family that gave her so much grief, and she had to run at a moment's notice... like how she fled Hong Kong. But Ethan... was just too hot to ignore. Ethan agrees to NSA sex but knew he wanted much more from this woman who had been hurt before. But how can you solve a problem for someone when the problem was her very birth? And her family was rich than sin but colder than ice when it comes to love?
I can't explain the whole background without spoiling the book, which I won't do. Let's just say that this "wound" and source of angst is rather unique and a really "first-world problem" that's very reminiscent of some Korean TV dramas. Definitely worth a read.
