Signed in Fire
Aveline Elane Stormrider built her empire with contracts and signatures-cold ink sealing hotter wars. At twenty-seven, she's the youngest CEO to ever sit at the helm of a global tech company. To the world, she's steel and ice, untouchable behind glass walls and sharper words.
But one signature changes everything.
A marriage contract-not for love, not for choice, but for power, politics, and survival. Suddenly Aveline finds herself bound to a crown that burns as fiercely as it dazzles, forced into a world of royalty, scrutiny, and secrets that test the limits of the mask she's worn all her life.
Between public duty and private longing, between the fire she hides and the fire she feels, Aveline must decide: is she signing away her heart, or is this the one contract she cannot rewrite?
A story of ambition, sacrifice, and the dangerous heat of love forged under pressure.
