BENNY'S HEART
Benny has known struggle her whole life. Growing up in extreme poverty, she has carried the weight of her family's financial burdens since childhood. At just five years old, she learned that dreams meant nothing without money. By the time she turns twenty, she's exhausted mentally, emotionally, and physically. A law student on the verge of breaking, Benny juggles endless jobs, both online and offline, hoping to escape the cycle of poverty. But no matter how hard she tries, every effort ends in failure. Depression clings to her like a shadow, making school even harder. Her grades slip. Her dreams start to feel impossible. Then, just when she's ready to give up, one job offer changes everything. She lands a ghostwriting position in the world's most powerful multi-billion-dollar publishing company. It's supposed to be a lifeline, a way to finally provide for her family. But she never expects to collide headfirst with the heir to the company. The cold, ruthless, and dangerously charming billionaire successor. ADRIAN STERLING He's Arrogant, controlling, and untouchable. Feared by employees, respected by competitors. Emotionally unavailable-or so it seems. A man who gets everything he wants, except Benny. They start off as enemies. He sees her as just another employee-or worse, a threat to his perfect empire. Benny, on the other hand, has zero interest in playing his games. She refuses to be intimidated. She refuses to back down. But something about her gets under his skin. Maybe it's her sharp tongue. Maybe it's the way she doesn't worship him like the rest. Or maybe... it's the fact that for the first time in his life, he's met a woman who doesn't want him. Benny doesn't believe in love. To her, it's a fairytale designed to trap people in lifelong misery. > "If you want to be happy, don't think about love. Don't even think about marriage." But he? He can't stop thinking about her. For the first time in his privileged, powerful life, he is the one chasing. And when secrets begin to unravel, when past pains, betrayals, and deep scars come to light, Benny will have to decide: Will she let herself fall? Or will she keep running... even if it means breaking both their hearts?
