Zaria Moreau didn't come to Paris looking for love-just her next big break. But when Viktor Antonov, a dangerously powerful Russian billionaire, locks eyes with her from across the runway, her world tilts on its axis.
He's cold, commanding, and outrageously sexy. He wants her on his campaign. In his mansion. Under his control.
Zaria has worked too hard to let any man-especially one like Viktor-dictate her future. But resisting him is like trying to hold back a storm. One stolen kiss leads to a night of raw, blistering passion. One night turns into an obsession neither of them can shake.
He offers her luxury, protection, and pleasure beyond anything she's ever known. But Viktor plays a dangerous game of dominance and control-and Zaria refuses to be another one of his possessions.
As secrets unravel and their connection deepens, desire turns explosive, and emotions turn messy. Between glittering cities, shadowy pasts, and beds that never stay cold for long, one question lingers:
Is it love, or is it power that binds them?
