Left humiliated at the altar when her fiancé’s scandalous affair plays on live television, Daphne Montgomery refuses to let high society watch her crumble. ​She expected her world to end in front of two hundred elite guests. Instead, a legend steps out from the shadows. ​Alistair Daniels—the city’s most feared, untouchable billionaire—walks down the aisle with a terrifyingly calm proposal: ​“Marry me instead. And by dawn, I will burn their world to the ground.” ​What starts as a cold contract marriage to crush their shared enemies rapidly transforms into a ruthless power alliance. Daphne isn't looking for a savior—she wants retribution. And Alistair isn't looking for a trophy wife—he found his equal. ​Together, they dominate boardrooms, dismantle empires, and command the upper crest of society. But as the line between fake vows and undeniable obsession blurs, the dangerous secrets of the past threaten to surface. ​In a world where power is everything, playing with fire might just consume them both.

She was brought in to save the franchise. They were hired to win games. Nobody planned on burning down the rulebook. ​As the youngest Assistant General Manager in NHL history, my mission at the Apex Vipers is crystal clear: fix the bloated payroll, enforce discipline, and pull this failing team back from the brink. I don't do chaos, I don't compromise, and I certainly don't mix business with pleasure. ​Then I meet the three men who run the ice: ​Marcus Vance—the ruthless, veteran captain who resents my authority and tests my control at every turn. ​Julian Cole—the arrogant rookie prodigy whose dangerous charm covers an insatiable appetite for breaking the rules. ​Ilya Volkov—the silent Russian enforcer whose lethal intensity turns room-temperature air cold the second he steps near me. ​They think they can bully me out of the front office. They think an Ivy League executive doesn't belong in their brutal world. But when a league-wide conspiracy targets my career and threatens to dismantle the team from the inside out, our fierce antagonism shifts into something far more dangerous: a ruthless, forced alliance. ​In a game built on power, leverage, and absolute control, crossing the line isn't just a violation of my contract. ​It's a total takeover.

Born without a wolf, Lyra was the shame of the Silvermoon Pack. When her own father cast her out, she expected to die alone. In a world where a wolfless shifter is nothing but prey, survival should have been impossible. Then the Ghost Pack found her: rejected shifters on roaring machines, led by Jax, a tattooed, guarded rogue who doesn't do kindness and certainly doesn't take in high-born runaways. But Lyra has a gift her old pack never saw, and in the glow of a midnight garage, over engines only she can fix, a fragile trust begins to form. Someone has also been watching her since the day she was exiled. When the pack that threw her away comes begging, she won't return to beg. She'll return to rule.

One medical error. ​Zero escape. ​I only signed up to be a human surrogate to pay my mother's medical bills. ​I never expected the clinic mix-up to place the royal, volatile embryo of the most feared Lycan King inside me. ​Now, Alpha Gabriel's elite guards have surrounded my home. ​He thinks I'm a spy who engineered this to trap him. ​He vows to lock me away until his heir is born. ​But as his feral wolf recognizes my scent as his true fated mate, a deadlier truth surfaces: someone inside his inner circle swapped the files to murder his child through my veins. ​To survive, we have to trust each other. ​Before his enemies—or our own growing bond—tear us apart.
