The Billionaire's Bad Reputation (The Billionaire Blacklist #2)

One unforgettable kiss. One insulting contract. One fake relationship with no safe ending.

Reputation strategist Isla Morgan built her firm on one rule: never sell a lie for a powerful man.

So when billionaire hotelier Damon Carrington asks her to save his Paris flagship from the viral Billionaire Blacklist, she should refuse.

After all, the evidence behind his infamous reputation is the thirty-day dating agreement he sent her the morning after their only kiss.

Damon has spent years making desire easy, elegant, and temporary. Isla is the only woman who rejected his terms without negotiating, and the only one he trusts to tell him exactly why he deserves the scandal.

When a candid photograph convinces the world they are already dating, the solution is as obvious as it is dangerous. They will fake a relationship until the Paris opening. Her terms, in writing. No sexual expectations. Immediate exits. Complete professional independence.

Then every staged touch starts feeling real.

A security breach leaves them in one secure suite. Damon falls first and discovers charm cannot protect him from wanting a future with no expiration date. Isla knows better than to mistake a beautiful performance for change, especially when her company and credibility are on the line.

But when their private agreement leaks, Damon must choose between saving his empire with a lie or telling the truth that could cost him everything, including the woman he never learned how to keep.

The Billionaire's Bad Reputation is a full-length, steamy, open-door billionaire romance featuring fake dating, an age-gap hero who falls first, workplace proximity, one-bed pressure, sharp banter, jealousy, public scandal, private vulnerability, and a guaranteed happily ever after.

It is the second book in The Billionaire Blacklist series and can be read as a standalone.
