"I ruined her." This realization brings Marcus Holden to his knees, but it might already be too late. Thirteen years ago, Marcus walked away from Celeste, convinced she betrayed him. She didn't. Celeste let him believe the lie, thinking she owed him. It destroyed her. Now, fate has put them in each other's crosshairs-and neither is willing to back off. Marcus is harder, sharper, and still holding on to old grudges. Celeste is determined to rebuild her life, tenaciously guarding her secrets. She could stay away. She should stay away. Still, Celeste is many things, but a coward she is NOT. So when Marcus issues a challenge, she accepts. A job offer: Succeed, and reclaim the life she lost. Fail, and lose everything again. Working together pushes them closer. Buried beneath years of anger, lies and silence... the spark between them ignites again. This time, the stakes are higher. Marcus's family is ready to tear them apart. A dangerous enemy is back-this time, out for blood. And the skeletons in Celeste's closet? They refuse to stay hidden. Every thread of deception unravels until the indebted CEO stands on the precipice of disaster: Save Celeste, repay his debt to her-and lose everything. Protect his empire... and lose Celeste-forever. The past is coming to collect what is owed. And this time, it might just claim...everything.

"Sit down, Miss. Perez" She gulped at his Dominant Aura but managed a faint smile. There was no replying smile in his Silver Eyes that met hers. "You are here, for?" He had ruffled hair, and his lips were slightly quirked up as she reluctantly sat down, perching on the edge of the chair. "I need your help, Sir." She noticed him staring hard at her as he took the seat across from her. "Miss. Perez, I have a proposition for you." He stated abruptly. "A Proposition, You Cannot Refuse." ******* A Cold and Influential Man is drawn to a cheerful and charming woman. Fate drew them together, and without her permission, he snatched her virginity. She relocates to the city in an effort to get away from her past, but she has no idea that once a devil catches sight of an angel, the angel will undoubtedly become hopelessly ensnared in his grasp. She doesn't know his appearance, which heightens the suspense of the story.

I beg to differ that.", I sassed and got out of his grip ready to move out of the room when he pulled me by my elbow and the next second I was pushed on the visitor's chair. He trapped me completely by keeping his palms on the arms of the chair. "I tried to tell you patiently.", I scoffed at his words. Patience and he don't go in a single sentence. He gripped my chin making me look into his eyes."Now listen carefully Miss, I want you for my niece as her babysitter. Tell me how much you'll take and we can seal the deal." This time it was me who blinked once, twice and thrice. "But I don't want to work for you." See the reason was absolutely clear. I liked the kid since the moment I met her but I hated this man from the moment I gazed into his eyes. "How much?" I frowned."You really think your money can make everyone dance on your tips?" "1200 dollars a week." I rolled my eyes making him lean towards me." 1500?" "Make it 15000 and still I won't work for you.", I retorted and pushed him. I walked to the door and gave him one glance."Next time when you talk to me, make sure you keep all your richness aside. That's one thing that I never want to see you again, you self-centred CEO." "We shall see." . . . Brave but lonely. Passionate but sensitive. That's Arielle Summers. For everyone, Money, Assets and happiness may be supreme but to her, self-respect is prime. Cold and reckless. Commanding and ruthless. That was Nicolas Arnold. He only cared for his niece, his Mama and his friends. Love life didn't exist until- she came into the picture. *No Toxic Relationship. No ex-crush/lover/fiance/wife. The male lead is the uncle of the child in this book, he's not a manwhore.

"I hate how much I need you, Niyah..." From just enemies, to enemies with benefits, to lovers. I hate how much I want him. But I can't escape him. Why? Because we're lawfully locked. An office romance between rival lawyers who try to fight the tension between them until they finally give in. "You say you hate me but you fuck me the same day." *a lot of smut included!*

His gaze dropped to my mouth then slowly lifted back to my eyes. "Does he fuck you better than me?" The question landed like a spark on gasoline. "What? I don't even know the guy." I breathed. Will love soften him or will she have to walk away before she loses herself? | MATURE 18+ | 🔥

It was just one night... until it wasn't. No names. No attachments. Just heat, skin, and a memory neither of them could shake. But when he walks into her father's house and she finds out-he is her dad's best friend and business partner-everything changes. Now, she's pregnant. He's obsessed. And neither of them can stay away. He was supposed to be off-limits. She was supposed to be a mistake. But some lines were made to be crossed-again and again.

It started with a moan behind closed doors. It ended with her blindfolded, wrecked, and begging for more. Aria was the quiet assistant. The good girl. Until the night Roman Hayes caught her touching herself - not to porn, not to fantasy... but to the sound of her boss fucking someone else. He didn't fire her. He offered her a choice: Enter his world. No strings. No shame. No one can know. Now she's crawling through velvet hallways in stilettos, learning what it means to be owned, worshipped, and ruined by a man who swore he'd never love again. She calls him Sir - but nothing feels casual about the way he touches her. Nothing feels safe about how fast she's falling. He said it was just an arrangement. She said she could handle it. But obsession doesn't play by the rules. And when softness ruins a man like Roman... there's no going back.

Ava Sinclair is desperate. Her father's rare illness is bankrupting her, and time is running out. In a last-ditch move, she joins Velvet Circle-an elite underground agency where powerful men pay fortunes for one night of total control. Xavier Blackwood doesn't do love. He's a billionaire who treats women like transactions: hot, hard, gone by morning. No strings. No repeats. Until Ava steps into his world. One contract. Fifty thousand dollars every time he calls. No feelings. No questions. Just her body on demand. But obsession creeps in fast. His hands can't get enough of her curves. Her moans start sounding like surrender. And the money can't drown out the truth they're both avoiding: What happens when "just sex" becomes something neither can walk away from? A raw, steamy, addictive billionaire romance packed with dominance, possession, and heat that burns everything down.
