The Billionaire’s Best Friend by Diane DuLac

I run a cosmetics empire and I am considered New York’s most eligible bachelor.
My college roommate and his wife have been my best friends for fifteen years. He is Special Ops and she is a schoolteacher.
My family is trying to marry me off to Serena Kensington, the daughter of my mother’s friend. They look down on my friends because they are neither wealthy nor high society.
When tragedy strikes, my world shifts irrevocably.
My best friend’s widow needs me, but the more I spend time with her, the less I can ignore that I have been in love with her for years. We share a grief that no one else understands.
She is pregnant and needs my help. I could never deny her anything but I dare not act on my feelings.
My social circle strongly objects to my choice to help her and conspires to keep us apart.
Will she finally see me as the man who will love her forever? Or am I fated to always love her from afar? I am willing to wait, as long as it takes.
