He’s the man every woman in New York wants. She’s the one woman bold enough to expose him. When fearless journalist Ava Sinclair sets out to uncover the secrets of ruthless billionaire Liam Ashford, she never expects to become part of his story. But one mistake one headline and one impulsive choice changes everything. To silence a scandal and protect his empire, Liam makes her an offer she can’t refuse — a fake engagement that blurs every line between truth and deception. Now, Ava is trapped in his glittering world of power and lies… where every touch feels too real, and every secret brings her closer to danger. Because behind Liam’s flawless façade lies a heart scarred by guilt — and behind Ava’s determination lies a past that ties her to him in ways neither of them can escape. In a city where love is a risk and truth is deadly, two enemies will discover that sometimes… the heart hides what the world can never see.
