CONTRACT FOR A SECRET

Emma Johnson & John Miller
Book 2 of The Gravity Effect Series
Emma Johnson has built her reputation chasing stories no one else dares to touch. Fearless, relentless, and always one step ahead, the New York investigative journalist is willing to risk everything for the truth. But this time, it isn't just another headline.
It's personal.
The offshore fraud syndicate she's hunting stole every dollar her gravely ill mother's family had saved. Bringing them down isn't just an investigation—it's revenge.
Standing in her way is John Miller, Manhattan's most formidable corporate attorney. His job is to protect the reputation of the powerful holding company that's been dragged into the scandal, and he knows exactly what Emma represents: a threat capable of destroying everything he's worked for.
He also knows exactly how addictive her kiss can be.
By day, they're ruthless opponents facing each other across conference tables and courtroom floors. By night, they're secret lovers breaking every rule they've sworn to uphold.
Keeping their relationship hidden is difficult enough in New York.
Keeping it hidden while trapped on a luxury vacation in Saint Lucia with their closest friends—Olivia Carter and Ethan Blackwood—is nearly impossible. Especially when Ethan's razor-sharp instincts threaten to expose them at every turn. While John desperately covers their tracks, Emma risks everything infiltrating Caribbean billionaires' hidden vaults in pursuit of the evidence they've been searching for.
But paradise has secrets of its own.
The stolen files reveal a conspiracy far larger than either of them imagined. The investigation is only beginning, the stakes are higher than ever, and the trail of the century's biggest financial crime stretches halfway around the world—to the snow-covered peaks of Asia.
If the truth doesn't destroy them first, their secret relationship just might. Because some stories are worth dying for. And some loves are worth risking everything.
