Mia has spent six years building a successful career at Greystone Industries, thriving under the laid-back leadership of her former CEO. But when the company suddenly appoints Jason Whitmore as the new CEO, her world is turned upside down. 

Jason is everything Mia despises-cold, demanding, and ruthlessly driven to make sweeping changes. As they clash over their differing visions for the company, sparks fly in ways neither of them anticipated. 

What begins as a professional rivalry slowly transforms into something more complicated as they discover that beneath their mutual antagonism lies a simmering attraction. In this slow-burn, hate-to-love romance, Mia and Jason must navigate the tension between their personal and professional lives, learning that sometimes the person you least expect can become the one you need the most.All Rights Reserved

Hearts In Conflict by Abbie3612

Lena, a seasoned journalist known for exposing corruption, has always had a personal vendetta against Damien, a wealthy businessman who's been the subject of her most scathing investigations. His company is involved in numerous shady dealings, and she's determined to bring him down. But when Damien's empire is unexpectedly threatened by a new scandal that could ruin everything he's built, he hires Lena as his PR consultant to help him manage the damage. She loathes the idea, but with her career on the line and the stakes higher than ever, she reluctantly agrees. Forced to spend long hours together, Lena begins to see a side of Damien she never expected: a man fighting to save his legacy, not just for himself, but for the people who depend on him. As their mutual animosity gives way to a shared understanding, their relationship turns into a fiery and complicated romance, forcing both to question their beliefs-and their hearts.

Rules of the Heart by timmychris

She plans love stories for a living. He doesn't believe in them. When her best friend suddenly calls off the wedding, she's determined to fix it. But the groom's gone silent, and the bride's older brother-the annoyingly cold, maddeningly gorgeous CEO-wants it all buried. She's not letting it go. He's not letting her in. But the more they fight, the harder it gets to ignore the heat simmering between them... and the secrets threatening to ruin everything. Some love stories aren't planned-they crash into you when you least expect it.

UNWILLING HEART by Rkemsi

An age-gap, slow-burn romance of obsession, restraint, and the one connection neither of them saw coming. Mia Bennett was supposed to be invisible - just a high school senior helping her best friend return a forgotten ID to her mom's office at Whitmore Tower. She never expected to catch the attention of the building's owner: Jordan Whitmore, the thirty-nine-year-old billionaire known for his cold heart, brutal mind, and the empire he built out of grief and distance. He wasn't supposed to look at her. She wasn't supposed to look back. But in a single stolen glance, something ancient and dangerous awakens in Jordan - a hunger for softness, light, her. And for the first time in decades, control slips through his fingers. He's too old. She's too young. But some hearts never ask for permission. As secrets, power, and desire begin to entangle them, Mia must decide if stepping into his world is worth risking her own... and Jordan must face the truth he's spent a lifetime burying: Love isn't safe. But maybe, just maybe, it's worth the fall.

Her secret by pinkwrites

SEQUEL TO HIS SECRET (can be read as a standalone but highly recommended to read his secret first) It's been four years since Amira walked away from Brooks Whitmore-and the life that nearly swallowed her whole. Now twenty-eight, she's graduated from cosmetology school, raising her daughter, Alina, and building a future of her own. Stronger, sharper, and unwilling to be anyone's secret again, Amira swears her past is behind her. But when a man she's casually seeing drags her to a political event, Amira finds herself face-to-face with Brooks for the first time in years. Only now, he's married. Only now, he's on the verge of the Vice Presidency. And only now, the truth about Alina threatens to surface. Brooks has everything he was raised to want-power, status, Margot on his arm. But behind closed doors he's colder and haunted by the woman he let slip away. What happens when their worlds collide again? When secrets can't stay buried? This time, Amira isn't the girl he left behind. She's a woman with something to lose.
