Daydreamer (Book 1 - Daydreamer)

A heartfelt, angsty, opposites-attract billionaire romance from USA Today bestselling author Susie Tate—now in a brand-new exclusive paperback edition with bonus content.

Set between the luxurious English countryside and the cut-throat world of London finance, this emotional brother’s best friend, grumpy boss romance delivers slow-burn longing, deep betrayal, and unforgettable grovel.

Lucy Mayweather doesn’t belong in the ruthless world of London’s business elite. A scruffy, disorganised daydreamer, she takes a job as assistant to her brother’s billionaire best friend hoping to escape her quiet village life—and maybe finally win the heart of the boy she’s loved forever.

But the Felix she remembers is gone.

Felix Moretti is cold, powerful, and unforgiving. London has turned him into a man who demands perfection and has no patience for Lucy’s quirks, her tattered jumpers, or her head-in-the-clouds optimism. Working for him is lonely, brutal, and isolating—and Lucy quickly learns she’s more invisible than ever.

Felix knows hiring Lucy was a mistake. She’s chaos in his meticulously controlled world, and her obvious crush is a temptation he can’t afford. Yet beneath her clumsiness and scattered thoughts is the girl who once enchanted him—the only person who ever made him feel human.

Staying away from her is impossible.
Giving in could destroy them both.

When buried secrets surface and Felix’s inability to trust leads to a devastating betrayal, Lucy is left broken—and in danger. The woman who emerges is no longer the gentle dreamer Felix once knew. And if he wants a second chance, he’ll have to fight harder than he ever has before… because losing Lucy may cost him everything.
