The Billioniare's Secret Wedding by Tamie Dearen (Clean Contempory Romance)
Blurb: Stephanie Caldwell made the classic mistake… she fell in love with her boss.
The fact that Bran is blind makes no difference to Steph—she thinks he’s the most handsome man she’s ever laid eyes on.

To make things worse, he just got engaged!
