A Lady's Guide to Marrying Rich ✔ by drizzlestarstone

• WATTYS 2022 WINNER • When Iris Monet married millionaire Jared Darling, she had only one rule - that he could cheat on her with anyone except the household staff. This arrangement of theirs would have gone on quite happily if she hadn't caught him on the snooker table with their maid, and on their wedding anniversary night no less. Humiliated and more than a little drunk, Iris storms out of the house vowing never to return unless it's for a well-compensated divorce. But as the train trundles out of the city, she slowly calms down and quickly realizes that there's a problem. A big problem. Because the only thing Iris has ever done in her life is being a trophy wife. The prospect of unfunded singlehood on the cusp of her thirties is a horrifying nightmare she's unprepared to deal with. So naturally, when she lays eyes on who she thinks is the richest bachelor in Ryefair, Iris is more than ready to put her claws into him. Except, Satoh Akai isn't the richest bachelor in Ryefair - not by a long shot. And as someone who speaks better with animals than people, romance is the furthest thing from his mind. When an unstoppable force meets an immovable object, anything is possible but one thing is certain - worlds will collide and hearts will burn. ✒ 17th November 2021 (start) ✒ 27th July 2022 (end)

Love Spilled Like Coffee {Completed} by lunarawrites

Damian Blackwood is a man who has everything-wealth, power, and an unshakable reputation as a ruthless CEO. Love? He never believed in it. To him, emotions were distractions, and relationships were nothing more than business transactions. But everything changes one morning when he accidentally spills coffee on a stranger at a café. Ella Carter, with her soft eyes and warm smile, isn't like the people he's used to. She doesn't fawn over his status or try to impress him. Instead, she simply cleans the mess, gives him a polite nod, and walks away-leaving him utterly captivated. For fifteen days, Damian returns to the café at the same time, just to see her from afar. He doesn't know why. He doesn't even know her name. But something about her makes his carefully controlled world feel unsteady. Then fate takes control. Ella walks into Blackwood Enterprises for an interview, only to realize the man from the café-the one who had been haunting her thoughts-is her new boss. Damian is thrilled but keeps his emotions locked away, offering her the job with a professional mask. As they spend more time together, the tension between them grows. Damian finds himself breaking his own rules, drawn to the warmth and kindness Ella brings into his cold, calculated world. Ella, in turn, sees glimpses of the man beneath the powerful CEO-one who's afraid to love, but even more afraid of losing her. Will Damian finally let go of his fears and embrace the love he never believed in? Or will his hesitation cost him the one thing he never knew he needed? A heartfelt, slow-burn romance about fate, unexpected love, and the power of simple moments that change everything.
