My Ex's Grumpy Billionaire Dad

An Age Gap Forced Proximity Romance

Damian Blackwood is dangerous.

He’s a billionaire ex-con with a heart of stone.

Wrongfully convicted and newly free, he’s a man of granite and silence—a dominant alpha with one goal: reclaiming his empire.

He’s out for blood, and he suspects the woman who once dated his estranged son is the key to his betrayal.

I’m the single mom who happens to be his son’s ex-girlfriend.

I’ve spent years building a life for my daughter, Mia, far away from the toxic Blackwood name.

I have a community center to save and a family to protect.

He thinks I’m part of the conspiracy that landed him in a cell; I think he’s a ruthless monster who ruins lives like it’s an Olympic sport.

But when a shadow from my past threatens us all, Damian doesn’t just offer protection. He demands it.

The tension between us is nuclear. Our shared space is a battlefield of iron wills and sharp tongues.

But beneath the high-voltage friction and the way he gently interacts with my daughter, the lines are blurring.

I was supposed to be his son's past.

Now, I’m caught in a world of scandals and lies—and pregnant with Damian’s heir.

He was supposed to be off-limits. He’s my ex’s Dad.

But now, this billionaire ex-con is the only one who can keep us safe... if his secrets don't ruin us first.
