What the Editor Knows

A Dark Forbidden Romance · Sable Voss

A junior editor finds a memoir that can destroy her CEO. He has been watching her in meetings for two years. The book is true. So is the way he looks at her.

Nell Brennan is twenty-nine, five years at Fenwick House, and morally flexible when a manuscript is true. The slush pile gives her The Boy Who Held the Door — an adult memoir of a death buried in 2008, a collector who profited, and a name she is not supposed to read in a first-person sentence: Malcolm Fenwick.

Malcolm is forty-four. He built the company for sixteen years on a lie he almost believes. Security tells him a junior has the file. He already knows which junior. He has watched her argue a sentence the way other men watch exits.

He offers money. She says read it with me.

What follows is not a clean acquisition. It is a night edit with his mouth in her hair. A members’ club above a Midtown hotel. A bad idea they both choose. A file he kept on her. A door he held and a trigger he did not pull. Hollis Mather still smiling in a viewing room.

They can bury the book and save the staff. They can leak it and burn the house. Or they can publish a version that is true and not a slaughter of innocents — and keep the company on terms that include her.

Dark workplace age-gap romance. Obsessive antihero. She has the file. HEA for the couple. The second name is still out there. Book 1 in the Gilded Sins series.
