The Billionaire in a Hard Hat

From the back cover

Chloe runs a coffee shop across from a construction site, where she has quietly watched Arthur, a tall, rugged worker, for a week. Bullied by the older crew and given no work, he spends his days leaning in a corner until Chloe, battling severe social anxiety, crosses the dust and noise to make him an offer: three thousand dollars a month to be kept.

Arthur accepts, and their arrangement begins at a hotel, where his teasing pushes against her nervousness. He takes her money but holds back, feeding her snacks and asking whether her shyness is what people call social anxiety. When he leans close, the gap between them finally narrows into a kiss.

Then Chloe goes bankrupt and, with a heavy heart, tries to let him go. Arthur only hands her a Centurion Black Card and tells her to keep paying for him, asking who said she could release him.
