Victoria Rothwell has never made a single decision for herself. Every choice-what she wears, who she speaks to, how she smiles-has been dictated by her mother's infamous Rule Book, a thick leather binder that is updated annually like a corporate handbook.
The rules are drilled into her daily:
• Rule #1: A Rothwell daughter is a reflection of her parents, not herself.
• Rule #19: A woman's worth is determined by her ability to elevate a man.
• Rule #33: Love is a liability. Marry for power, stay for appearances.
So when her parents announce her engagement to Eli Harrington, heir to a vast tech empire, Victoria accepts it silently. It's just another rule: "Rule #50: A Rothwell does not refuse a marriage that benefits the family."
But Eli is nothing like the men her parents have groomed her to impress. Plus Eli is never far from His friends Troy, Gavin, and Luca.

🔥The Devil's Heir🔥
He rules with fear. She challenges his control. Luca was raised to command, to destroy, to never hesitate. As the heir to a brutal mafia dynasty, his world is built on loyalty, blood, and absolute obedience. Then Sienna is forced into his orbit, and refuses to play by his rules. She doesn't lower her eyes. She doesn't soften her voice. And she doesn't treat him like a king. As traitors move in the shadows and enemies close their grip, Luca is torn between the empire he was born to protect and the woman who keeps standing in his way......

Five years ago, she was Isabella-a struggling girl who made a desperate choice, one that led to a single night with billionaire 𝐗𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧. She walked away without looking back, carrying a secret that could change both of their lives forever. With no meeting again, they both parted their ways but what if she meets him again after so many years but this time things have been changed. She is no longer that girl cursing her fate. Instead she wrote her fate herself. Will he be able to recognise her after five years and the secret she is hiding from him? Now, when she's back in America for the first time in years, ready to open an art gallery and leave the past where it belongs, her fate has other plans. When she unexpectedly comes face-to-face with Xander again, the life she built begins to crack. He's just as intense, just as dangerously handsome but he's also full of questions. Questions she isn't ready to answer. As old feelings resurface, so do buried secrets, ones that neither of them saw coming. But some truths were never meant to be found, and when dark secrets from their past emerge, 𝐄𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞, 𝐢𝐭 𝐦𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞.
Fractured Vows (Love vs. Trust)
"Some people fall in love with the wrong people sometimes..." This song is the situation of my life. I listened to this song on repeat and cried myself to sleep when I realized that I am married to a wrong person. When I realized that it's all over. The person I have loved since my childhood has broken me forever. I never loved anyone in my life except him. I was on cloud nine when he told me that he also loved me. We got married and everything was perfect until one day. Wait let me tell you how it all begin..... Sienna Edison, a 22 years old young woman aspiring to be a lecturer of psychology and a psychologist. She has been in love Kaiden for as long as she can remember, who is her neighbour and her parents' best friend's son. However, Kaiden never loved her back so she decided to move on. But fate seemed to have other plans for her. Kaiden Kincaid, a 24 years old young man aspiring to make his name in the field of architecture. He has been in love with Sienna since childhood but he feels like he is not good enough for her because of some bad decision he made in his life. He has also lost Sienna's friendship due to his arrogance but he wants to earn that back. Sienna is his peace, his lifeline. Both Sienna and Kaiden love each other a lot, but one incident caused a rift between them. Can they ever find their way back? Only time can tell. This story contains the following trope:- Second Chance Romance Childhood Love Soulmates Divorce Love after Divorce Friends to Lovers Misunderstanding Hero obessed with Capital 'O' Guys, there is no cheating in the book. I guarantee you that. Just trust the process. The cover of my Book is made by my dearest reader and friend @yanawritesauthor. Thank you so much for this gesture, dearest. Note: My dearest readers, just trust the process. The characters will make stupid mistakes and decisions, if they won't do that then the story won't go on.Kumpleto
Rich People Problems
As much as Kimberly Astor hated to admit it, she had a slight problem. Okay, so it was theoretically a major problem, but it wasn't entirely her fault. Okay, so it was her fault, (at least to a certain extent, according to her) but her dad didn't need to be all rude about it. He especially did not need to threaten her future role as CEO on it too. And, setting up an arranged marriage to fix said 'problem' is so out of proportion. Okay, it wasn't completely out of proportion, but still. Jace Kingston didn't know what he was getting into when he agreed to be married to a 'problematic heiress'. He certainly was not expecting a sexy vixen, who was hellbent on getting on his nerves and destroying the semblance of normalcy he established in his complex life. So, when the two come together to form a business alliance, they make a simple plan. 1. Fix the problem. 2. Don't ever bring up personal things. 3. Get out. Too bad breaking the second rule is making the third rule look a lot more... difficult.

Coerced
It is rightly said and often proved by the proverb, man proposes and God disposes. What happens when everything seems to go well and a day arises in your life that within a heartbeat the fate comes crashing down at your feet turning your destiny to an utter catastrophe? What happens when the only girl you LOVE in this world and next starts to HATE you for an action you aren't even responsible for and you can do nothing about it except to keep your hands folded? What happens when you lose everything in your life including your family within a matter of seconds just because of a single ignorant move? It just cost me a blink of an eye and my life gyrated into bits and pieces because of a dopey move under the influence of sedation and sex. I am Shannon Clandevis, CEO of Clandevis Group of Industries, one of the top billionaires of the United States. People seek me with praising annotations but they are ignorant about an important veracity. I am a love struck bovine with a vacuous soul and secrets buried deep under the ground.
