What if the man who ruins your day... turns out to be your new boss-and the one man who can ruin you completely?
Chloe Knox has one rule: never fall in love. Love destroyed her family, wrecked her childhood, and left her emotionally scarred. Now a freshly graduated financial expert with everything to prove, Chloe is focused, guarded, and ready to take on the corporate world-until one humiliating encounter derails everything.
Axle Cross is cold, commanding, and sinfully magnetic. As the powerful CEO of Cross Enterprises, he's used to people trembling in his presence-not insulting him over spilled coffee. But when Chloe storms into his life with fire in her voice and defiance in her eyes, he decides one thing: he wants her. Not just in his company, but under his control.
What starts as a professional clash becomes a dangerous game of desire, dominance, and secrets. As Chloe falls deeper into Axle's world of luxury, lust, and control, she's forced to choose: keep her heart locked away-or surrender to the man who threatens to consume it.
Steamy, emotional, and wickedly addictive, Dreadful Desire is a dark workplace romance full of forbidden heat, irresistible tension, and a love that defies every rule.
