He was her boss. Her downfall. Her obsession.
Katrina Matthews didn't come to Toronto for love-she came to forget. With a fresh start in hand and her sights set on success, the last thing she expected was to land a dream job at Kelce Trade Inc., working directly under the notorious billionaire CEO, Grayson Kelce.
Sharp-tongued. Ice-cold. Sinfully gorgeous.
Grayson is everything Katrina should avoid-and everything she can't seem to resist.
But when he's indicted for corporate fraud, Katrina's world explodes. With federal investigators knocking, reputations on the line, and secrets running deeper than boardroom deals, Katrina is faced with an impossible choice: protect herself... or protect him.
What starts as survival spirals into a twisted game of passion, betrayal, and blurred lines. Between office gossip, late-night confessions, and a web of complicated friendships, Katrina finds herself unraveling-in love, in rage, and in ruin.
King of Ruin is a high-stakes, slow-burn romance laced with scandal, spice, and a heroine who refuses to go down without a fight.
In a world fueled by secrets, money, and undeniable desire, can hate survive the heat-or will it turn into something far more dangerous?
Perfect for fans of slow-burn tension, corporate drama, and forbidden romance, Beneath the Ledger is an unforgettable enemies-to-lovers tale of loyalty, ambition, and the price of the truth.

Hate Me Harder
FORBIDDEN ENEMIES WITH BENEFITS Dark, twisted, and heartbreakingly passionate, it's a forbidden love story about enemies with benefits, obsession, revenge, addiction, and a love that refuses to die, even when the world demands it. How can it be wrong if it feels so fucking right? ... And then his mouth was on mine. It wasn't soft. It wasn't careful. It was a collision of teeth, breath, desperation and fucking vodka. My back hit the mirror, the cracked glass rattling as his hands slid up my thighs, gripping, lifting me like I weighed nothing. "Lorenzo-" "Shut up," he rasped against my lips, kissing me harder. "Just - shut up." I clawed at his shoulders, nails digging into his skin through the thin fabric of his shirt. He groaned, the sound vibrating against my mouth, and pressed closer, his hips slotting between my legs as he pinned me to the mirror. Every inch of me screamed to shove him away. Every inch of me burned to pull him closer. His hands were everywhere, spreading over my waist, skimming up my sides, catching my jaw to tilt my head just so as his mouth devoured mine. The cracked mirror dug cold into my back, but the heat of him was a wildfire swallowing me whole. "You hate me, remember?" he muttered against my mouth, biting my bottom lip before sucking it back into a kiss. "I do," I gasped, nails scraping down his arms. "Good," he said darkly, kissing me again, harder this time. "Hate me harder." I did. I kissed him like it was a fight, like it was revenge, like it was the only way to breathe. ... fractured love trilogy #2 [can be read as a standalone]

She's seen it all, done it all and doesn't get rattled easily Except when she's told she has to kill the most feared mob boss of the century- Silas Andreeva But what she doesn't know is that this is all a ploy for Silas to test Jade's capabilities. But it isn't just about a test, is it?-it's personal. Silas isn't just looking for a killer; he's drawn to her specifically.

Every conversation, every moment is a push and pull between an assassin and the man who should be her target. Jade and Silas are equals. She's the best assassin out there, and he's the kind of man crazy enough to invite his death just to see if she's worth his time. Neither of them fully trusts the other... but that just makes things hotter. "Am I falling for him, or is this just another game?" "Did I set this up to test her... or because I wanted to keep her close?" They should be enemies. They should walk away. But neither of them does.

Every interaction is a game of cat and mouse, but neither of them is sure **who's who. And the best part? They both know it's dangerous. They just don't care.Concluida
