All is well that ends well...until it doesn't. Simon finally bit off more than he can chew and put a target on his back.
Unbeknownst of his fate being written out in form of a paycheck, he begins his negotiations for the largest contract of his life. Everything seems to be coming together: the money, the properties, and even the mysterious woman sent in to oversee his contracts. But even at it's sweetest, life has a way of coming back for what it's owed, and when the house wants to even the score, few have survived to tell the tale.

The billionaires pawn
Lexi world has come crashing down. Her family's prestigious business empire, built over generations, is in shambles-wrecked by her father's reckless gambling and alcohol-fueled mistakes. On the verge of financial ruin, with creditors banging at their door, she is presented with an unimaginable offer from the enigmatic billionaire Julian Blackwood. Julian isn't just any man. He's one of the most powerful, ruthless figures in the business world, known for getting what he wants at any cost. His wealth and influence are limitless, and now, he's set his sights on Lexi. His proposal is as simple as it is shocking: spend one year as his lover, subm it to his every desire, bear his child, and he will save her family from financial devastation. Desperation forces Lexi to consider the unthinkable. If she agrees, it means plunging herself into Julian's world of luxury and excess, but also into a dangerous game of submission and control. What she doesn't expect is how intensely Julian will dominate not only her body, but her mind and heart as well. In his glittering penthouses and private jets, Lexi is drawn deeper into his twisted world, where pleasure and pain intertwine, and where she finds herself craving the very things she once feared. But Julian's wealth comes with more than just power. It brings danger. His empire is built on secrets, and as Lexi becomes more entangled in his life, she realizes that his obsession with her goes beyond lust. He wants to own her in every way. And though Lexi begins to surrender to his intoxicating touch, she starts to unravel the dark forces lurking behind his fortune. His enemies are watching, waiting for any sign of weakness, and Lexi may be the perfect target. As the lines between contract and real emotion blur, Lexi finds herself torn. He isn't just a billionaire offering her salvation, he is a man who will stop at nothing to possess her completely.
