In the heart of Manhattan's concrete jungle, where billion-dollar tech empires are born and secrets are currency, Caleb Harrington rules with ice in his veins and fire in his code.
The enigmatic CEO of Harrington Innovations, Caleb is a self-made tech mogul whose genius with algorithms is rivaled only by his ruthless business tactics. Cold-hearted, emotionally unavailable, and locked behind a wall of secrets, he's built a digital empire-and a life-where no one gets too close. Rumors swirl around his past, but no one dares to ask. Caleb doesn't just keep people out-he deletes them from his life like bad lines of code.
Enter Violet Crawford-cybersecurity specialist, codebreaker, and emotional empath. With a heart as bright as her intellect, she's determined to prove herself in the male-dominated world of tech. When she lands a coveted job at Harrington Innovations, she's prepared to face firewalls and fire-breathing executives alike.
But nothing could prepare her for him.
Drawn to the mysterious CEO despite every warning sign, Violet starts to unravel the man beneath the mask. As they work together to fight a brewing cybersecurity threat that could destroy the company, sparks fly and secrets ignite. But Caleb's past isn't just a closed chapter-it's a locked vault, and Violet may be the only one with the key.
As codes are broken and walls fall down, the biggest risk they face isn't digital-it's emotional.
Because the hardest system to hack... is the human heart.

Heartbreak Express
🏆 𝐖𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐲𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟓 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 | She ran from her wedding the day she found out the groom was expecting a baby with someone else. Now, with a broken heart and no suitcase, she's starting over in London... Two men, one new life and a second chance she never saw coming. Isabella Solène Hart was supposed to be a bride. Instead, she became a woman who walked away from betrayal, from shame, from the version of love that left her undone. London offers her nothing but silence and strangers and that's exactly what she needs until it starts to offer more. A job at a luxury PR firm, a flat that slowly becomes a home, a local café with warm coffee and warmer smiles, a neighbour with a cat named Rufus and a shopkeeper named Robert, gruff, loyal, quietly becoming the father figure she never had. But nothing shakes her more than the two men who begin to orbit her new life. Skylar, the charming café owner with kind eyes, he makes her laugh again, makes her feel again, but when it matters most... he stays silent. And Sebastian, the enigmatic CEO with ice-blue eyes and power in every breath. He shouldn't be looking at her the way he does, he shouldn't know who she is, but he does and what begins as a spark quickly threatens to set fire to the walls she's still rebuilding. Now Bella must navigate more than just a second chance, she must decide what kind of love she's ready for and whether she can open her heart again without losing herself in the process. It's a story of loss, of starting over, and the two men who force her to face what love really means. Of heartbreak turned healing, of strangers turned family. It's not just about falling in love, it's about who you become when your world shatters... and you choose to rise anyway.Concluida

Ella Carter, with her soft eyes and warm smile, isn't like the people he's used to. She doesn't fawn over his status or try to impress him. Instead, she simply cleans the mess, gives him a polite nod, and walks away-leaving him utterly captivated. For fifteen days, Damian returns to the café at the same time, just to see her from afar. He doesn't know why. He doesn't even know her name. But something about her makes his carefully controlled world feel unsteady. Then fate takes control.
