The Billionaire’s Broken Secretary
BOOK ONE OF THE KEITH SISTERS SERIES
Nella, a woman disillusioned by heartbreak and betrayal, faces a series of challenges after losing both her corporate HR job and her relationship with Sam, who cheated on her. Seeking a fresh start, she takes a job at a flower shop and later lands a prestigious position at Elevé Cosmetics, where she becomes the personal assistant to Roy Logan, a cold and ambitious CEO with whom she shares a past one-night stand.
As Nella navigates the complexities of her new job, she finds herself torn between Roy, whose vulnerabilities stir her, and Ethan, a steady and reliable friend who is secretly Roy’s fiancée’s brother. Meanwhile, Maya, Roy’s scheming ex, plots to tear Nella and Roy apart, and Nella’s toxic ex-boyfriend, Gray, becomes obsessed with her once again.
When Nella uncovers dark secrets about her boyfriend and her connection with Roy deepens, she must confront conflicting desires, loyalty, and betrayal. Amidst the chaos, Nella faces an impossible decision—whether to follow her heart and embrace a tumultuous love with Roy, risk betraying her friendship with Ethan, or break free from the toxic relationships that bind her.
In a world of shifting allegiances, Nella’s choices will shape her future, forcing her to decide whether true love is within her reach or if she is forever trapped by the tangled knots of her past.

Chapter: CHAPTER ELEVEN ~Nella~After about two hours I was ready and took a cab to ‘Éclat de Luxe’ where Ashley had texted me earlier. It was a large luxurious fashion store. Its entrance is framed by towering glass doors with intricate gold filigree, opening into an expansive, sleek interior filled with natural light. It was definitely made for the elite as everyone who was walking to and fro looked rich. Each corner of the store whispers luxury, with opulent marble floors, walls draped in plush velvet, and chandeliers designed by renowned artisans. The air is filled with a subtle blend of jasmine and sandalwood, creating a sensory experience for every customer who walks through its doors. I stood in the corner, unsure where to start. Pulling out my phone, I dialed Ashley. Just as the phone rang, I turned and spotted her waving from across the room—surprised to see Ethan with her. I waved back, smiling, and walked over."Hi, Ethan... When did you get back?", a smile tugging at my lips. “Well—" Ethan beg

Chapter: CHAPTER TEN ~Nella~"He withdrew, his voice laced with misunderstanding. 'It's fine. I knew I wasn't good enough.' I lay there, confusion etched on my face. 'Wait, no, that's not it,' I said, reaching for his hands."'What is it, then?' he asked, his eyes searching mine. 'I just wanted a beautiful night with you, but it seemed like you'd rather be at your team dinner.' He shook his head. 'No, babe, I'm all yours. I was just tired, but I'm here now. Let's make it happen.' His gentle kiss settled within me."The soft R&B melody filled the room as he led me to the bed. Our kiss deepened, his lips tracing a path of desire from my lips to my neck then down to my navel. This time the kiss was more passionate. He slowly went down between my thighs as I gasped softly. His tongue made me feel wet and my fluid gleamed all over his tongue. I moaned softly whispering his name as I bit my lips.His touch ignited some emotional rush down my spine. I gasped softly as he explored my inner thighs. The music's ste

Chapter: CHAPTER NINE~Nella~My thoughts were interrupted by a playful push from behind. It was Hannah and Elsa. “Seems like someone will be joining us for dinner tonight”, Hannah said with a smile. “Yes girl.. and I’m quite surprised too”, I responded feeling excited. I was exhausted but I was happy to be joining them for dinner, especially since it’s been a long time since I was able to do so. Just then the rest of the team walked out of the office building chatting with excitement. Fridays were the best days for us especially when there was no carryover jobs. “Excuse me guys but I won’t be joining in today. It’s my parents' anniversary and I need to be there”. Blair said as she waved goodbye. She was the youngest on the team but was the best photographer in the company. “Bye Blair”.We boarded three taxis, each dispatched for four people, since Blair wasn’t joining us, and Walter was still missing in action. We headed to our usual haunt, The Midnight Bites, a cozy restaurant just a few miles from t

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHT ~Nella~As I entered, he didn’t acknowledge me. Silence hung in the air as he stared at his computer screen, his fingers tapping lightly against his desk. I hesitated before clearing my throat softly, about to speak.But before I could get a word out, he cut in."When is the shoot for the concealer product coming up?" His tone was sharp, businesslike."Next Wednesday," I replied."Where?""At the Aurelia gallery ""Why?"That last question caught me off guard."Uh…" I hesitated, unsure of what answer he was looking for."Do you ever think outside the box Nella?" he asked, his tone laced with skepticism."But, sir, I found your signature on it, and Amira handed it to me so I thought you must have approved it," I responded, attempting to defend myself. "Have I not instructed you to carefully review every file entrusted to you, regardless of my prior examination?" he retorted, his voice cold."I did," I stammered. "I thought it was a compelling concept. The surrounding artwork, the hi

Chapter: CHAPTER SEVEN ~Nella~ “Oh no! I’—I’m so sorry—, I said looking confused on what to do but before I could even say anything else I was shut with a heavy slap from Eva, Roy’s fiancée. “I’m so sorry, Miss Eva. I’ll have your dress dry-cleaned and sent to you immediately,” I stammered.My voice was fragile as I fought to hold back the tears threatening to spill over. But before I could say another word, Eva’s hand struck my face again, the sound of her slap sharp and unforgiving. “How dare you! You disgusting, blind secretary!” she spat, her voice dripping with venom. “I’m so sorry ma’am,” I managed, my voice barely above a whisper. “I’ll take care of it. I promise.” My words were barely audible, weighed down by the sting of the slap, the humiliation. But the agony deepened when Roy’s voice joined in, harsh and bitter. “Do you ever get anything right, Nella? Ugh!” Roy snapped, his disgust palpable in the air. “I—I’m deeply sorry,” I stuttered, choking on my words”. “It won’t happen again

Chapter: CHAPTER SIX~Nella~ My thoughts were abruptly interrupted by the gentle touch of Gray’s hand on my thigh as I glanced at him, smiling. He must have been speaking to me for a while, but I hadn’t noticed. “You’re here now, and all I want you to focus on is Lauren’s birthday party waiting for you at home,” he said with a warm, reassuring smile. “Oh my God, I didn’t get Lauren a flower, and they must’ve already gone to bed. What should I do, Gray?” I asked, my voice filled with confusion and a hint of sadness as I covered my face with my hands. "That's why you have me, babe," Gray said, his voice laced with confidence. "Take a look at the backseat."I turned and was stunned by the sight of a massive bouquet of fresh, deep red roses sitting on the backseat. Their beauty was almost overwhelming, and I couldn’t believe how thoughtful Gray had been. He really was everything to me. "I'm driving, babe, and it's late," he reminded me gently as I leaned forward, attempting to kiss him. "Yeah, y
