L'Art du Ravage

​In the game of empires, love isn't a weakness-it's a hostile takeover.
​Cece Escoffier is the Iron Lily of the French elite. A former judo prodigy turned corporate shark, she was raised to turn elegance into a weapon and boardrooms into battlefields. But her carefully constructed autonomy is shattered when she discovers she is a pawn in the Aegis Accord-a blood-bound contract signed before she could even walk, tethering her legacy to the one man she was born to destroy.
​Nick Van Arsdale is the Precision Heir of a Swiss military dynasty. Cold, calculated, and lethally efficient, he spent his youth in the mud of special forces training, molded to be the teeth of the Aegis Group. He views the Escoffier hotels as a weakness to be purged. He views Cece as a nuisance to be silenced.
​Forced together in the glass-and-steel heights of Switzerland, their proximity is anything but a fairytale. It is a psychological war of digital ledgers, suppressed secrets, and a physical tension that threatens to level the very empire they are meant to lead.
​As shadows from their families' pasts begin to emerge and a global conspiracy threatens the Aegis Group, the line between rival and lover begins to blur. It starts with a key. It continues with a signature. It ends in a ravage that neither of them will survive unscathed.
​Because some hearts aren't meant to be won. They're meant to be conquered.
