The Off-Limits Billionaire Boss
A 25 year old Mia Thompson is a struggling writer in LA that is trying to balance her passion for writing with making ends meet. She works as an assistant for a small publishing company but the low pay and the demanding workload make it difficult for her to make a good living.
One day while attending an event organized by her publishing company, she meets renowned author, Sarah Collins, who happens to be represented by the prestigious lawyer Ryan Foster. They strike up a conversation and Sarah, impressed by Mia’s enthusiasm, promises to connect her with Ryan who is in need of a personal assistant.
Desperate for a more stable income, Mia meets up with Ryan and is granted the opportunity to work with him.
Mai starts working for Ryan as his personal assistant and quickly begins to become invested in his life, as he has her handling his schedule amongst other things. They spend more time together and begin to get to know each other on a personal level.
Somewhere down the line, Mia begins to have feelings for Ryan, a natural consequence of being so invested in his life. Ryan as well has been touched by Mia’s presence as her creative and passionate nature cuts through his emotional barriers.
Unfortunately, despite some flirtation and romantic rendezvous, Ryan is unwilling to officially deepen his connection with Mia. She takes the plunge and confesses her feelings to him, hoping he reciprocates but he shuts her down, emphasizing that they need to be professional. This leaves Mia heartbroken.
Mia decides to leave the company, as she feels it is the best for her wellbeing due to the fact that she can’t bear to be around Ryan knowing he doesn’t reciprocate her affections.
Mia’s departure affects Ryan deeply and he begins to realize the depth of his affections for her. He realizes he has let a second chance at love slip away and decides he won’t let Mia go without a fight.
He goes on a mission to get Mia back and regain her trust and affection. Sometimes it takes losing someone to realize the value of love and that is what they both learn in the end as they decide to forge a path ahead.
