Fallen for a God's Girl
Mikael Rios is not an ordinary man. A billionaire with unmatched intelligence and influence, he stands at the top of a world built on power, control... and darkness. Feared even by the very people he works for, Mikael has never believed in anything he cannot command. Until he meets her. A woman whose life is rooted in faith. A woman who belongs completely to God. She is everything he is not- pure where he is broken, steadfast where he is ruthless, light in a world he has only known as dark. She should have walked away. He should have left her alone. But something neither of them expected begins to grow- a connection that defies everything they believe in. Now, Mikael is faced with a choice he never thought he'd have to make: hold on to the life that made him who he is... or risk everything for a love that could change him forever. Because falling for her was never part of the plan. And loving a God's girl... might be the very thing that saves-or destroys-him.

He approached me with an air of superiority, clearly unimpressed by my presence. "I hope you understand, Calista, that this marriage is purely a business arrangement," he said coldly. "Do not expect me to treat you with any sort of affection or kindness." I almost laughed, because I didn't care. I just needed him to give me a reason to disappear. So what if I'm bound to him by some promise my parents made? I can easily turn that back on them. I straightened my spine and met his gaze with determination. "I see," I replied, my voice steady. "But you best believe that I will break you. SInce you want to keep me here against my will, I'll make you regret agreeing to marry me." His eyebrows rose, clearly surprised by my response. "Very well. But do not expect any mercy from me." 'Well...shall I dare say it's a pleasure to finally meet you?"
