A few days to her wedding, Malia Moreau’s world explodes. She walks in on her fiancé with her cousin wearing her own wedding dress. Humiliated and seething, Malia does the one thing no one expects: she storms into the night and vows to find a new husband before the weekend is over. No second chances. No looking back. What she doesn’t realize is that the strikingly handsome man in the sleek black luxury car she mistakes for a taxi is no ordinary driver. He is Adrian Vale, the Ice Ghost of Vale Holdings. A cold, untouchable billionaire who hasn’t let anyone close since betrayal nearly destroyed him. Against his own better judgment, Adrian says yes to the impulsive, fiery stranger’s outrageous proposal. Now Malia thinks she’s married to a quiet, ordinary man. And Adrian lets her believe it. For the first time in years, someone is falling in love with him, not his fortune, not his name, not his power. Just him. But secrets this big never stay hidden. A ruthless conspiracy is draining billions from Adrian’s empire. Malia’s dangerously obsessed ex is entangled with his enemies. And the most lethal threat may be lurking within Adrian’s own family, someone he’s trusted for years. As passion ignites between them, so does danger. In a world of betrayal and greed, can a love built on a lie survive the truth?

Everyone wants a piece of Lucien Vale, his money, his fame, his name. Ariana Cross wants nothing to do with him. She’s too busy fighting to survive: engineering classes by day, dead-end jobs by night, and a little sister whose next hospital bill could break them for good. Pride is the only thing her father didn’t steal when he walked out. But when a career-ending scandal rocks Lucien’s world, the ice-cold racing champion needs a miracle: a fake girlfriend who can fix his cars and his reputation. He offers Ariana everything: money, security, her sister’s future if she’ll play the part. She says no. Until one brutal night leaves her with no choice. What starts as a cold business deal explodes into a dangerous obsession. The closer Ariana gets to Lucien, the more she sees the broken man behind the legend: sleepless nights, buried rage, and a mother’s death that was never just an accident. Their lives were tangled long before they met. Now trapped in a web of lies, scorching chemistry, and secrets dark enough to destroy them both, Ariana discovers the deadliest truth of all….. Some collisions were never accidents.
