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

APRICITY by pinkskyyx

She built an empire, but loneliness was the price. For years, Aria has buried her past beneath ambition, forging a life of power and success. But when her sister's wedding pulls her back into the orbit of Zane-the man she once loved and lost-her carefully controlled world begins to crack. Zane is married. A father. Off-limits. Yet fate seems determined to throw them together, stirring up unspoken words and unfinished business. But his wife's betrayal is just the beginning. Aria has secrets of her own secrets far darker than lost love, secrets that could ruin her if Zane ever uncovered the truth. As old wounds reopen and new dangers emerge, Aria must choose: seek revenge on the family that abandoned her or risk everything for a love that was never meant to be. A story of power, pain, and passion-where love is war, and the past refuses to stay buried. Available on Kindle and in paperback too https://amzn.in/d/eZWX2ou

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.
