BETTING ON THE FOE "In a game played by monsters, love isn't a sanctuary. It's the ultimate leverage." For Scarlet Vane, survival means playing the perfect hand. As the brilliant mind behind her family's multi-billion-dollar empire, she knows how to outsmart any vulture. But when a ruthless financial sabotage forces her into a strategic marriage alliance with her handsome, protective childhood friend, Leon, Scarlet chooses to run. Escaping to the shadows of Barcelona, she collides with Liam-a lethal, devastatingly handsome stranger possessing a fierce, primal dominance that instantly commands her world. Liam is everything a woman shouldn't want, yet in his arms, Scarlet finds a breathless, intoxicating sanctuary. He watches her every move with a terrifyingly possessive devotion, swearing he will tear down anyone who dares to threaten what belongs to him. For seven days of absolute bliss, she lets her guard down, falling dangerously in love with her dark savior. But when Scarlet is dragged back to her limestone fortress to face her impending vows, a desperate dive into encrypted files shatters her world. The true identity of the monster behind her family's ruin is closer than she ever imagined, and the trap has already sprung. Trapped in a lethal web of secrets, heartbreak, and corporate warfare, Scarlet's pain hardens into vengeful steel. Sliding her emerald ring back on, she decides to weaponize her marriage, combine her forces, and play the deadliest game of her life against the forces trying to devour her. Liam thinks he's already won the board. But Scarlet is about to remind him of the golden rule: Never bet against the house.
