When struggling writer Elara Raines signs an exclusive publishing deal with the enigmatic billionaire Adrian Vale, she believes she’s finally found her breakthrough. But the fine print hides more than deadlines and royalties — it binds her to Adrian’s world of whispered deals, dangerous rivals, and secrets too costly to tell.Every public appearance becomes a performance. Every private conversation feels like a negotiation. And with a mysterious enemy leaving warnings in her apartment, Elara can’t tell if Adrian is protecting her… or owning her.The deeper she’s pulled into his orbit, the harder it is to tell where the contract ends — and where the heart begins.

Broke, desperate, and out of options, Amara signs up for a rent-a-date app—just one night, just enough money to get by.‎‎She never expects her first client to be Leon Wolfe: ruthless tech billionaire, emotionally unavailable, and in need of a fake fiancée to close a billion-dollar deal. The arrangement is clear: play the part, follow the rules, don’t catch feelings.‎‎But behind Leon’s cold exterior is a man with secrets and scars. And the more Amara steps into his world of money, lies, and boardroom enemies, the harder it gets to remember what’s fake—and what’s starting to feel painfully real.‎‎No love. That was the rule. So why does it feel like they’ve already broken it?
