The Velvet Lie
By Arin Kade

He built empires from silence.
She inherited chaos wrapped in silk.
They were never supposed to meet-
but when they did, it was like watching fire negotiate with gasoline.

Riyan Elmas is a self-made billionaire, a ghost in designer suits, and a man who trusts silence more than people.
Mina Kuroda is the daughter of a luxury empire, starved for sensation, and tired of being everything the world expects.

Their lives collide under chandeliers and secrets.
She's not looking for love. He's not built for it.
But something in their shared loneliness cracks the walls they both hide behind.

What begins as a quiet war of glances turns into a whisper-soft obsession neither of them planned - and both know will end badly.

Because this isn't a love story.
This is a lie.

A beautiful one.
A velvet one.

And the most dangerous kind of truth is the one you whisper between lips you were never supposed to kiss.

And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.

Cheating With The Billionaire (Excerpt) de CameoLover93

Cheating With The Billionaire | Previously Titled HER NEW DADDY . . . The man that I'm falling for is a man that I shouldn't want. The odds are stacked against us, and I shouldn't get involved with the arrogant bastard. I shouldn't want to submit to him. And I definitely shouldn't fantasize how it would feel to be taken to bed by him, the obnoxiously handsome and notorious billionaire, Kaden Matthews. Why shouldn't I? Because he's several years older than me and is a very dangerous man. In and outside of the office, trouble follows the ruthless CEO wherever he goes. But the most important reason why I absolutely cannot succumb to Kaden Matthews is because he recently got married to Evangeline Knight, my mother. Complicated doesn't even begin to describe my life at the moment. . . . Author's Note: This book is an excerpt only. The full version can be read on Ream or Ínkitt. Copyright © 2022, Amy N. Johnson.
