But for once I didn't let myself overthink things. In the few hours we spent together, he managed to push me outside my comfort zone. And I loved every second. I never expected to see him again. Let alone sitting at the head of the boardroom table during my architectural firm's pitch to design his new hotel chain. Turns out the man I spent one steamy night of passion with is Cole King, billionaire COO of the King Group. And unlike our previous encounter, when it comes to business, he’s as cold as ice. Now I’m working for him, and it’s… challenging. He’s arrogant, demanding, and seems to delight in pushing my buttons. But with every “one-on-one” meeting he insists we have, the memory of that night simmers between us. I should never have agreed when he proposed a no-strings-attached arrangement, but I wanted to experience more of what he could give me. I didn’t mean to trade my heart in return. Now it’s too late. Because no matter the warmth his touch brings, Cole is as icy in love as he is in business. And I’m the one who’s going to get burned. Coldhearted King is a full-length, spicy, one-night stand, billionaire workplace romance, with a virgin heroine, a dirty-talking hero, and a guaranteed happily ever after. It's the first book in the Empty Kingdom billionaire romance series but can be read as a standalone. Review: A MUST READ! - Can two people meet in a bar, decide to have a one-night stand and fall in love with each other on the spot? L.M.Dalgleish has written flawed, witty, interesting characters in a fun read. (My first time discovering this author and no disappointment.) Cole King is a multi-billionaire co-owner with his 2 brothers, Roman and Tate of King Group. Hotels, office buildings across the globe. Dear old dad has found himself in a mess of indictments for insider trading… and guilty. The brothers need to save their legacy. All of this occurs as King Group hires Elite Architectural firm to design Kings’ new building in Chicago. When the team walks into Cole’s office… there stands his one-night stand. The one whose virginity she gifted him after being dumped by her ex. This young and talented your woman, Delilah West is as shocked as Cole is. He confronts her, being a complete jerk, accusing her of “knowing” who he was to get this job. A take-no-prisoners type of person… Delilah informs him in no uncertain terms that she would never “prostitute” herself for any job. And they are off. Will Cole find himself capable of simply feeling? Can Delilah’s view towards building in a sustainability foresight impress him. And will their off the charts passion, lead to a HEA something Cole does not believe exists. Worry dialogue. Two complicated people who are trying to be causal with whatever it is they are doing and learning about each other. Highly recommend. Can not wait for books on the brothers. Review: Not what I expected, much better - 4.5 stars. I enjoy romance books, but this generally isn't my type of romance genre. I'd say give it a read, though, regardless. The story kept my attention throughout. Delilah wasn't your typical bumbling dummy but an intelligent and interesting character. Cole was spicy, and appealing. Not the bland domineering characters sometimes seen these books. While he shouldn't be the most likable character, he is written so well that you understand him, and it gave him a lot of appeal, imo. The brothers whom I suspect will have their own books will also be a fun read, and I'd like to see how the story progresses in their world. Side note... I also thought the best friend was a great character even though she wasn't a main focal character. She was written in a supportive and realistic way. Same with Beth. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #51,697 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #32 in Billionaires & Millionaires Romance #3,339 in New Adult & College Romance (Books) #11,174 in Contemporary Romance (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 19,727 Reviews | ## Images ![- Coldhearted King: A Billionaire Workplace Romance (Empty Kingdom) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61OD3KYrhXL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A MUST READ! *by J***L on November 14, 2023* Can two people meet in a bar, decide to have a one-night stand and fall in love with each other on the spot?

Same with Beth. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.75 ⭐️’s! *by K***R on May 25, 2025* This was so good! This was way better than I expected. I loved Delilah soooo much and the fact that all the negative people in her life got what they deserved? Gold. Pure gold. Cole, he was deliciously possessive, however he was a major jerk in some parts. The only reason for the dip in .25 ⭐️’s is because there needed to be way more groveling. He needed to be put on ice for a week or two more, not just a few days. But I felt that chemistry jump right off the page from the first moment. This is definitely spicy too, about a 🌶️🌶️🌶️.5 on the hot scale BUT the steamy scenes were done in a way I enjoyed. Not too smutty. All around, this was a good balance of plot, character development, romance and spice. I definitely recommend! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/538445227-coldhearted-king-a-billionaire-workplace-romance-empty-kingdom](https://www.desertcart.com.au/products/538445227-coldhearted-king-a-billionaire-workplace-romance-empty-kingdom) --- *Product available on Desertcart Australia* *Store origin: AU* *Last updated: 2026-06-25*
