When ruthless billionaire Damien Black strikes a deal to save his crumbling empire, he never expects his bride-for-business to be the one woman who challenges him at every turn — fiery, untamed, and completely off-limits. Ella Monroe needs the money, but she’s not about to let a cold-hearted tycoon dictate her life. What starts as a cold transaction soon ignites into a wildfire of passion neither can control. In a world where money means power, love might be the ultimate risk... and the sweetest reward. Steamy Scene Tease: His hand found the small of her back, pulling her flush against him. "You agreed to be mine, Ella," Damien murmured, his voice rough as gravel, his breath hot against her skin. Her lips parted, but before she could argue, his mouth claimed hers — hungry, demanding, desperate. The contract had terms, but passion had none. Ella melted against him, her hands tangling in his hair, her body betraying every logical thought she tried to hold onto. In that moment, the bargain didn’t matter. Only the way he touched her like she was something he couldn’t afford to lose.
