"The Hacker and the Mob Boss" ❦ Reyna Fields seems to be an ordinary girl with her thick-framed glasses, baggy clothes, hair always up in a ponytail, and her head tucked away behind a computer screen. However, no one knows she's armed with a genius IQ and a heart of gold. She hacks her way into virtual systems on a search for her mother. Unfortunately for her, she has hacked into the wrong database. She hacked into the database of the notorious mob boss, Santino "Saint" Venturi. Saint is the opposite of his name. He's known for his ruthlessness. As a mob boss to a mafia, he learned to eat or be eaten. When Reyna stumbles upon his database, a plan dispersed into his mind. He's going to take her. ❦ "I don't share, angel." "He's a friend," she found herself saying. Dante was too busy staring at her to notice the fiery glare in Saint's eyes. She was mentally praying that Dante would just look away. His fingers trailed up her leg before his hand latched onto her sex. He held her there while a small gasp left her lips. "I will fuck you on this table if he doesn't stop looking at what belongs to me." ❦ HIGHEST RANKING: #5 romance - 6/26/22 Dark Romance Cover by @-simplyhan

Deception Ellie Brown has it all-beauty, power, and a legacy built on diamonds. As the CEO of Diamond Glow, she is the epitome of strength and success, but beneath her flawless exterior lies a heart weighed down by secrets, betrayals, and a family that sees her as both an asset and a rival. Her own brother harbors a grudge so deep that he vows to take everything from her. Her mother, ever calculating, demands a marriage that Ellie refuses to entertain. And then there's the past-buried truths that threaten to unravel everything she's built. Ryan Adams is a man living in the shadows of grief. Six years ago, he lost his sister and the woman he loved in a single, tragic moment. His father never forgave him. He never forgave himself. Now, drawn into a business deal with Ellie, he finds himself face-to-face with a woman who challenges him, intrigues him-and reminds him of everything he swore he'd never want again. Neither of them believes in love. Neither of them trusts easily. But when fate forces them into each other's orbit, tangled in a web of corporate battles, hidden enemies, and forbidden emotions, the line between business and desire begins to blur. But deception lurks in the shadows. The past is never truly buried, and the deeper they fall, the more dangerous the truth becomes. In a world where betrayal is currency and love is a liability, can two scarred souls defy the odds-or will the ghosts of their pasts tear them apart?

Emma Woodhouse, aged 20 at the start of the novel, is a young, beautiful, witty, and privileged woman in Regency England. She lives on the fictional estate of Hartfield in Surrey in the village of Highbury with her elderly widowed father, a hypochondriac who is excessively concerned for the health and safety of his loved ones. Emma's friend and only critic is the gentlemanly George Knightley, her neighbour from the adjacent estate of Donwell, and the brother of her elder sister Isabella's husband, John. As the novel opens, Emma has just attended the wedding of Miss Taylor, her best friend and former governess. Having introduced Miss Taylor to her future husband, Mr. Weston, Emma takes credit for their marriage, and decides that she rather likes matchmaking.
