About Decode My Desires:
Welcome to the titillating world of the multibillion-dollar global companies and the love affairs of the families that control them.
Harris
Who’s the sucker now? Me, that’s who. The One really took me—not to mention my family—for a ride. I never should have given up my playboy card. Well, it’s back in hand, and I have to make up for lost time.
Kat
What’s that saying about best laid plans? Yeah, tell me about it. Hopefully my new goal to figure out Harris and what I feel for him works out better...
Can Kat redeem herself, or has she lost the opportunity for The One?
Travel with this playful pair as Kat makes her moves on Harris from sky-high penthouses on Fifth Avenue and the Sunset Strip to a private villa beside a lush Hawaiian lagoon and more in their sizzling, second chance billionaire romance.
Their love story is a standalone romance trilogy in the series. Get a glimpse of their dynamism in other books.

Exclusive Excerpt:
Lachlan faces us and goes on.
“The initial assessment of the information she stole shows no major impact on Jackson Corporation. The surveillance videos and audio prove I’m a hard-ass worker”—we chuckle along with him—“I empathize with her and her line of descendants’ plight.”
Lachlan pauses to glance at each of us before he continues, “I propose Kat leaves Scotland in one week and she never returns without our advance knowledge. Her family—if truly uninvolved—can remain. She can keep the money Stewart paid her since she used it to support her family. However, we will monitor her activities. Should she hack anyone else, we will press charges. Thoughts?”
Again, everyone speaks at once. But Lachlan calls for Leonie first.
“Kat’s comments about the posh life and how impressed she was by the things we do make sense now,” she says. The girls nod and murmur their agreement. “I noticed she became less guarded the more time she spent with us. She was wistful when we last spoke about the upcoming holidays in Capri and Verbier during Labor Day. Kat listened raptly. Perhaps she saw her error but didn’t know what to do to fix the situation. And for Chet to threaten to kill Kat so publicly, well… Mon Dieu!”
Aunt Lucie speaks next and agrees with Leonie’s assessment. But adds she doesn’t trust Kat, and she would have to prove herself before she could gain it back. Our mother expresses a similar sentiment.
Lachlan hears everyone out, then turns to me.
“Your thoughts, Harris?” He asks.
I nod and respond.
“On a personal level, Kat fooled me once and will not have the opportunity to do it again. From a business perspective, I take responsibility for not paying attention to Jackson Corporation’s tech activity. So, as much as I want to blame Kat, I have to share some with her. Fortunately, she didn’t access pertinent information. To press charges makes it public, and you don’t want Jackson Corporation to appear vulnerable. That would give hackers ideas. At the same time, it reflects poorly on STEELE Technology and Cyber Security’s ability to protect our clients. So, from a selfish standpoint, you should not press charges. Banish her. I did already.”
