Which is more important—love or money?

After a difficult childhood, Lola Price knows the answer: Money. Having lost her family to tragedy and poverty, she has vowed that now she’s grown up she’ll have so much money she’ll never feel helpless again.

At twenty-four, Lola falls in love with her boss, Spanish media mogul Rodrigo Cabrera. After a hot affair she’s thrilled to discover she’s pregnant—until Rodrigo finds out about her shocking past and coldly tosses her from his house

Heartbroken, Lola flees to New York without telling him about the baby. As much as he now despises her, she’s afraid the ruthless billionaire might try to take her child away.

What will happen when Rodrigo finally learns her secret?

Which will triumph—love or money?

This is the final book in a trilogy about three friends. Hallie’s story was The Secret the Italian Claims . Tess’s was The Heir the Prince Secures . I’ve loved writing these stories about three vibrant, different women and their fiercely powerful men. I hope you love them too.

With warmest wishes,

Jennie
