**ONE SPILL, ENDLESS LIES** “I’ll take that as an introduction.” Elena Harper never meant to ruin a billionaire’s suit. One rushed morning, her coffee splashed across Alexander Voss’s chest in the gleaming lobby of Voss Tower. He should have been furious. Instead, he smiled like he’d been waiting for her. Pressed against his penthouse glass, city lights burning below, he growls against her throat, “You’re in my blood now, Elena. No escaping me.” She should have walked away when the anonymous texts started: *He buries the women he loves.* She definitely should have run when the fiancée everyone thought was dead stepped out of the shadows and whispered, “He paid to make me disappear. He’ll do the same to you.” Elena confronts him in the pouring rain. “Tell me the truth, Alex. All of it.” His answer is raw, broken: “The truth will cost you everything you just inherited including me.” Because Elena isn’t just his obsession. She’s the secret heiress to half his empire. His brother will kill to keep her from claiming it. His “dead” fiancée will burn the city to punish him. And Alexander Voss has spent his life lying to protect what’s his. One careless spill started it all. One hidden bloodline will end it. What would you do if the man who sets your soul on fire is the same man whose secrets could bury you alive and the only way to survive is to become the queen of the empire he swore you’d never touch?
