Wrong Bride To The Right Husband by Cyn_ie_j

Aria is the beautiful, smart, and beloved daughter-praised by everyone and trusted with their father's company. But her twin sister, Alina, lives constantly in her shadow-unseen, uncelebrated, and forced to work under Aria's command. When Aria causes a major financial loss to a powerful, mysterious company owned by an unknown billionaire, their father is forced to pay a large sum in compensation. But it's not enough. In return, the company demands an unusual form of settlement: the CEO responsible must marry their CEO until the debt is cleared. To protect Aria, their parents make a secret decision. Alina is forced to marry the unknown CEO in Aria's place. She's terrified-of the marriage, the man, and the new life ahead. No one knows what he looks like, and he's never appeared in the media. He's a complete enigma. Alina's first night in the mansion is unsettling-she's kissed from behind by a stranger while humming a song known only to her and a long-lost love. The kiss stirs something in her, something painfully familiar. And when she finally meets her husband, Darren Blackwood, she's stunned. He looks familiar-too familiar-but she can't place him. As days pass, memories from eight years ago start surfacing. Clues hidden in the house, songs, and gestures slowly unravel the truth: Darren is the man who once loved her and vanished from her life. The heartbreak returns-but so does the spark. Their love story reignites, beginning with slow trust and deep emotion. But Aria, full of jealousy and rage, isn't done. She wages a subtle war to tear them apart, using lies and manipulation to destroy Alina's newfound happiness. Yet, against the odds, and despite the pain of the past, Darren and Alina prove that love-true, hard-earned love-can conquer even the deepest wounds and fiercest enemies.

BACHELOR BY DESIGN by ingeniousmindoftune

Zaire Langston Maxwell is Atlanta's most eligible bachelor. Thirty-two, charming, rich, and fine as hell, he owns a booming real estate firm, flipping luxury properties and stacking millions while keeping his heart on lockdown. He's got a penthouse in Buckhead, a custom Bentley, and a new woman in his bed every week-love is a game he refuses to play. But everything changes when he hires Selah Knox, a curvy, bold, no-nonsense interior designer with a Brooklyn bite and a vision that turns his cold, sterile bachelor pad into something that feels like home. Selah is focused, emotionally unavailable, and not even remotely impressed by Zaire's usual smooth talk. She's just here to do her job, collect her check, and keep it pushing. Zaire doesn't know what hits him harder-the plush velvet headboard she installs in his bedroom or the way her laugh starts living in his mind rent-free. Her sass, her style, her hustle... they draw him in deeper than any woman ever has. But Selah's got secrets-past love scars that never quite healed, and a rule: never mix business with pleasure. Zaire's got habits-ones that don't play well with commitment. Still, neither of them can ignore the heat simmering beneath the surface. When old flings and new opportunities threaten to pull them apart, they'll have to decide if what they're building together is just a beautifully staged illusion or the real thing.

Zasha Sokolov has built his life on one rule: never get attached. In the cold, ruthless world he inhabits, emotional distance is his only armor against the pain of a past that refuses to stay buried. This detachment has been his key to survival and the reason for his meteoric rise to power. But when the position he's fought his whole life to attain comes with a condition- a forced marriage-Zasha's carefully constructed world begins to crack. Adora has always been a beacon of light, masking the shadows that linger in her life. But when her abusive family sells her into marriage to pay off her sister's debt to the Bratva, she quickly realizes her so-called new beginning is nothing more than a fresh kind of hell. Trapped in a union that promises nothing but pain, Adora clings to the hope of escape-until she meets the man she's destined to marry. Zasha never anticipated that his bride would be an arsenophile with a smile as disarming as her fascination with death. Adora's blend of innocence and darkness stirs something in him that he's long suppressed, something that could destroy the fortress he's built around his heart. As their lives become entwined, passion and danger ignite, threatening to consume them both.

In a world where love is a distant dream, Zakirah Kabir, the sheltered daughter of two powerful mafia figures, lives in the shadows of her family's dark past. Born with a fragile heart and a deep-seated fear of attachment, Zakirah has always kept herself emotionally distant, preferring the safety of her own world. As a romance author, she dreams of love, yet she is terrified of the pain it might bring-both for her and those she holds dear.

Yet, when duty demands he marry Zakirah for political reasons, their worlds collide in ways neither of them could have predicted.

As they navigate the complexities of their relationship, an unexpected bond begins to form. Omar, whose fear of touch has isolated him from those around him, finds himself drawn to Zakirah in ways he cannot control. And Zakirah, though hesitant, begins to see a man beneath the tough exterior-one who is as vulnerable as she is, hiding his own wounds. As their connection deepens, secrets unravel, and trust is slowly built, the quiet moments they share become their most cherished. But just as love begins to bloom, Zakirah's health takes a dangerous turn, forcing both to confront their deepest fears. Will their love survive the trials that lie ahead? Or will Zakirah's fragile heart tear them apart?
