Sienna Carvalho is the wildest and most mischievous of the Carvalho sisters-a woman who thrives on danger, adrenaline, and outsmarting powerful men. Known across Europe's underworld as a ghostlike thief with a taste for priceless jewels, Sienna's latest heist crosses a line even she didn't mean to: stealing a billionaire's $2.5-billion diamond necklace during a royal auction.
But what she doesn't realize is that the necklace belongs to Kai Reyes, an elusive and dangerous man-both a world-class hacker and a trained sniper with ties to covert intelligence and black-market tech. Cold, calculating, and impossible to find, Kai tracks her down within days, breaking through every fake identity she's ever created.
When he finally corners her, instead of turning her in, he makes her an offer: help him expose the international syndicate that financed the auction and survive long enough to steal something far more valuable. What begins as a reluctant partnership soon spirals into a web of danger, passion, and obsession.
Sienna finds herself torn between her desire for freedom and the magnetic pull of the man who should have been her greatest enemy. As they navigate assassins, double-crosses, and a world of glittering deceit, one thing becomes clear: the thief and the hunter are more alike than either will admit.

BURNING VOWS
Riley Rivera has always prided himself on independence. His family is growing, their business thriving-but nothing in his life prepared him for Liam Castillo. Liam Castillo is everything Riley despises: rich, arrogant, and infuriatingly infallible. Their families have never seen eye to eye, and Riley has spent a lifetime quietly resenting the Castillo name. Yet when an arranged marriage is announced to unite their families' fortunes, Riley and Liam are forced into each other's worlds, whether they like it or not. At first, it's rage and resistance. Heated arguments at dinner parties, sharp glances that linger too long, and moments that make Riley's pulse race despite himself. Liam is infuriating, demanding, and dangerously close-but beneath the arrogance, there are hints of vulnerability Riley can't ignore. Riley's world tilts further when he discovers Alex, the boyfriend he trusted, has betrayed him-paid to leave him by Liam's family. Anger, heartbreak, and confusion blur the lines between hatred and desire. As they navigate forced proximity, Riley and Liam begin to see each other in glimpses: the quiet vulnerability, the loyalty, the strength hidden beneath their shared rage. Little by little, sparks of attraction ignite, turning the fire of resentment into a complicated, irresistible passion. Slowly, deliberately, the walls come down. But love, trust, and desire are not simple when every glance feels like a battle and every touch threatens to unravel everything Riley thought he knew about himself-and Liam. Enemies. Rivals. Lovers. And something neither of them expected: home.Complete
