She thinks she's better than him. He proves her wrong-on the first page. Better Than is a story about ambition, attraction, and the dangerous cost of underestimating someone you care about.

Book 2 of 4(✨The Valemont Series✨) His hips pressed against mine, deepening the kiss with a slow, deliberate rhythm. I could feel the weight of the cold metal tucked into his pocket brushing against the inside of my thighs and the heat pooling between my legs only growing from the anticipation of what I wanted. "Do it." "Do what, Vipera?" His voice was low, husky, warm breath ghosting over the sheer lace covering my nipples making a sharp gasp escape me. "Use your gun." ___________________________ 𝐇𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐲. 𝐒𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬. 𝐍𝐞𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞. Xavier Romano is the heir to a brutal criminal empire, a weapon shaped by blood, obedience, and revenge. Every step he takes is calculated. Every emotion is a liability. When he's ordered to target Irene Kang; the daughter of the man responsible for his mother's death, he accepts without hesitation. An eye for an eye. A life for a life. Irene Kang lives in the shadow of power she never asked for. A minister's daughter wrapped in elegance and restraint, she has learned to survive through control, silence, and sharp intuition. Love has always felt like something meant for other people until a single night changes everything. Their meeting is accidental. Their connection is not. What begins as surveillance turns into obsession. What should have ended in blood becomes something dangerously intimate. As secrets surface and loyalties fracture, Xavier is forced to choose between the empire he was born to inherit and the woman who makes him feel human for the first time in his life. Irene, caught between truth and betrayal, must decide whether love is worth the cost of everything she thought she knew.

'Careful. If you play with fire, you might get burned.' Rayn Moreno--Don of the Italian Mafia--is a man of contradictions.

Strong-willed, stubborn, and scarred by a past she refuses to relive, she has one mission and one mission only; The dismantle of the Italian mafia from the inside. As lies tangle with desire and loyalty fractures under the weight of truth, both Rayn and Arya are forced to confront the cost of their choices. Because in a world built on power, prejudice, and betrayal, is nothing and no one ever what they seem. A dark humorous action romance soaked in tension, temptation, and regret---where playing with fire may be the only way to survive. 🏆- PEOPLE'S CHOICE WINNER (Romance) of The Youngblood Awards 2018.🏆 🥈- SECOND PLACE WINNER (Romance) of The Fly High Awards 2019.🥈 🥈- SECOND PLACE WINNER (Romance) of the Rose Awards 2019. 🥈 🥈 - SECOND PLACE WINNER (Romance) of The Chaos Awards.🥈 🥈 - SECOND PLACE WINNER (Romance) of The Grammar Awards. 🥈 🥉- THIRD PLACE WINNER (Romance) of the Majestic Inc Awards. 🏅- COVER WINNER of The Tiger Awards.🏅 Ranking #1 in adultthemes (15/10/19) -18+ - Mature - Strong language - Adult themes - Violence - Rape - Drama - Humor Reading at own risk. -Editor: @LetRaenFall Cover: @Repulsify This story DOESN'T romanticise rape! #ButterflyAwards2k19# #rose2019# #PhenixFlowersAwards#

They say some hearts recognize each other before eyes ever meet. Before I knew your name, my soul had already whispered it in sujood. Before I saw your face, my heart had painted it in every quiet moment of longing. And when fate finally let our paths cross, it felt less like meeting you... and more like remembering you. Alayna Shaikh Warm-hearted and quietly steadfast, Alayna carries a sincerity that lingers long after her smile fades. Raised in a small Pakistani village steeped in tradition, her childhood was wrapped in familiarity and faith. But at ten, everything changed when her family moved to Qatar, a world of opportunity that came with its own quiet ache. When the noise of adjustment grew heavy, Alayna found solace in faith. She pursued Islamic Studies in South Africa, spending eight years away from home years that shaped her into a woman of depth, grace, and unshakable belief. Now back in Qatar, she finds her thoughts drawn to someone she has never truly known a presence that lingers in her heart like a prayer unanswered. Aamir Al Qasim Born into privilege and legacy, Aamir's life was carved by expectation. With piercing hazel eyes that hold both warmth and restraint, and a calm strength that speaks louder than words, he embodies the balance between confidence and humility. Despite the ease of wealth, he guards himself against pride, anchoring his soul in the remembrance of Allah. But when a fleeting encounter with a modest young woman stirs something within him something he cannot name nor dismiss, Aamir finds himself haunted by her absence. He searches for her everywhere, yet destiny seems to keep her just beyond reach. When two souls are written for each other, time bends, hearts ache, and prayers begin to take shape. Will fate finally weave Alayna and Aamir's paths together or will the unseen tests of life pull them apart before they ever truly meet?
