Ava Sinclair is drowning in two-point-four million dollars of debt and the ghosts of her father’s suspicious “suicide.” When ruthless collectors threaten her sixteen-year-old sister, Ava does the unthinkable—she emails billionaire Nash Vale demanding a meeting. One rainy night, one signature, and she belongs to him for an entire year. Live-in personal assistant. Exclusive availability. No escape clause. Nash Vale doesn’t do love. The cold, dangerously controlled CEO of Vale Holdings takes what he wants, and right now he wants her—the fiery, intelligent woman who dared challenge him instead of begging. Her resistance ignites something darker than desire: pure, unrelenting obsession. As Ava digs into the USB drive that could destroy Nash’s empire, she uncovers secrets that tie her father’s death straight to the man now controlling her life. Rival crime lord Voss wants her as leverage. Nash will burn the city down to keep her. Every touch, every command, every possessive look tightens the chains. Hate has never felt this addictive. But when the obsession turns mutual, who will break first?

I lied at a billionaire's funeral. Now I'm paying the price. Elena Vance is a professional imposter. Hired to play a grieving widow, she expects to collect her check and disappear. She doesn't expect Alexander Pierce—the dead man's son—to see through her act in three seconds flat. Alexander doesn't want money. He doesn't want revenge. He wants her. The contract says she owes him three months of her life. The fine print says he owns her until every penny is repaid. But the truth—the truth is much darker. His brother is watching. Her brother is dying. And the man who hired Elena wasn't a stranger. He was the devil she should have seen coming. Now she's trapped in a mansion full of secrets, caught between two brothers who both claim to want her safe. One offers a cage of silk. The other offers freedom with a price. And Elena is about to discover that the most dangerous obsession isn't the one that locks you up. It's the one that makes you want to stay.
