In the shadowy underworld of high society, three enigmatic billionaires-Luca Vance, Adrian Kross, and Damon Black-command the city from behind closed doors. Their power is limitless, their wealth shrouded in mystery, and their intentions masked by a polished veneer. Whispers of dark secrets swirl around them, fueling rumors that no one can confirm, yet no one can ignore.

Enter Aria, a tenacious investigative journalist from a small working-class town, who unknowingly becomes the object of their dangerous fascination. Drawn into their orbit, Aria finds herself in a game she never meant to play, where trust is fragile and the stakes are life or death. The deeper she digs into their world, the closer she comes to unraveling the truth-a truth that could either save her or pull her into the abyss with them.

What lurks behind their charming smiles and luxurious lifestyles? And why do they seem to know more about her than she knows about herself? Aria's pursuit of the truth may lead her to answers she never wanted to find. In this dangerous game, the lines between captor and protector blur, and Aria must decide whether to run from the shadows-or embrace them.All Rights Reserved

Luca Lombardi is a man of precision-his life defined by order, his time too precious for distractions. A busy father with a sharp tongue and a cold demeanor, he doesn't play games. But the moment he sees her, her legs around the pole-he decided what was his. Rosalina Crist isn't the fragile girl he once thought. She's fire and defiance wrapped in sin, and she moves like she owns the darkness of New York; which she does.

Soon, she becomes his obsession, a dark imprint etched into his mind, haunting him with every thought, every breath, and every forbidden craving. In the underworld of power and the game of Chess, she's the temptation he can't resist-and the ruin he can't escape. _ When Bridget Meadows decides to pursue her dream of attending university, she faces an unexpected obstacle: proving she has the work ethic to succeed. With no prior experience and her last name not enough to open doors.

Even worse, she's assigned to Damien Lars-the guy she's spent years trying to avoid. Once childhood friends, Bridget and Damien now share nothing but tension and hate, their past fractured by a betrayal she won't speak of and he can't forget. Forced into close proximity, their tempers ignite, giving way to a dangerous temptation of desire. Damien knows he should stay away, but some lines are too tempting to leave unbroken.
