“Why did you bend over, Maverick?” I whispered to her, trying to calm down, but I failed it. Miserably.   “Because you told me to, assh*le.”   “I’m so tempted to f*ck you right now. You’re the most exquisite woman I’ve ever been with. You’re the only beautiful thing I ever see and have right now, and I don’t want to change that.”   “Then what are you waiting for? Isn’t it the reason why you punish me?”   “This is not a punishment.”   “Then what do you call this? Testing your self-control or testing me, or how long could I last in this position?”   “Oh, it’s been tested, baby. I’m f*cking hard against your sweet *ss, but I can’t have it.”   “You know what, I’m tired. If you’re not going to spank me, I’m getting out of here.” *** MAVERICK As a working college student, I struggle to make ends meet until a stranger approaches me with a proposal—to be his employer’s wife for an enormous sum of money. Knowing the cash will help me pay my grandmother’s medical bills, I accept the offer with a demand—just a marriage of convenience, no intimacy. It’s too late to realize I’m marrying the charming and gorgeous to a fault, young Mr. Winston. And there’s this instant fire between us despite my inhibitions. Things get more complicated when our sham marriage is put to the test by his father, who threatens to expose my dirty little secret. *** LAKE Being a Braddson-Winston heir is sometimes a curse. My father is a real SOB and a pain in my *ss. He makes one outrageous demand for me to secure the CEO seat in the company—marriage. So I find a perfect bride— Maverick Bates II, who is beautiful but in a dire financial situation. I only ask two things. We stay MBA and keep things purely business until the contract ends. As simple as that. It was meant to be a straightforward deal, but each day I get to know her, my position is not the only thing at stake but also my heart. I realize I can’t let her go even if she’s the daughter of the ruthless don of Sicilianos.

Blurb Grace has a secret—one that could shatter her family. She is in love with Hunter, her sister Helena’s husband, and the guilt is suffocating. So when their mother and Helena ask her to be Helena’s surrogate, Grace agrees, hoping this sacrifice will atone for her forbidden feelings. But carrying their baby might be the very thing that destroys her. If she is pregnant, once the baby is born, she knows she must leave—escape the torment of watching the man she loves build a life with someone else. But before she even finds out if she’s carrying their child, tragedy strikes, leaving Grace to pick up the broken pieces of their family. As grief and secrets collide, she is forced to navigate a path where love, loyalty, and betrayal blur, leading her toward an impossible choice. Grace never meant for her life to turn out this way-watching from the sidelines as the man she loved married her sister. She had loved Hunter first, but it was Helena he chose. And when their perfect marriage was shattered by the cruel truth that Helena couldn’t have children, it was Grace who made the ultimate sacrifice. Carrying their child was supposed to be an act of love, a gift to her sister, but deep down, she knew it would destroy her. Then came Max-charming, persistent, and nothing like Hunter. With him, Grace glimpses the possibility of happiness, a life where she isn’t just someone else’s shadow. But no matter how hard she tries to move forward, Hunter is always there, a lingering ache she can’t erase. When tragedy strikes, everything changes. Helena is gone, and Grace is left holding the baby-literally. Alone and grieving, Hunter turns to her, convincing her that the only way to protect the child is for them to marry. On paper, it makes sense. In reality, it’s a slow descent into heartache. Because Grace isn’t just fighting the whispers of those who want to tear them apart-she’s fighting the impossible task of filling the void Helena left behind. As secrets begin to surface, unraveling the truth behind the people they thought they knew, Grace is forced to ask herself-was anything ever real? And if Hunter is too broken to love her back, is she strong enough to walk away? Or will she sacrifice herself all over again, hoping this time, love will be enough?

I despised Dante Moretti long before he slid that ring onto my finger. Arrogant. Controlling. The kind of boss who could ruin my day with a single clipped order. I hated the way he spoke to me. I hated the way he watched me more. But walking into my hometown with his ring and watching my ex-husband’s face drain of color felt wickedly perfect. The elders wanted to see real love before selling their land. So Dante and I lied. We played the sweet couple. Except Dante didn’t touch me like a man pretending. At the Christmas market, his hand slid down my spine and stopped right where it shouldn’t. At dinner, he whispered against my ear, “If he’s watching, spread your legs a little. Let him see who owns you now.” I should have slapped him. Instead, my body answered him before I could breathe. He kissed my temple too slow and held my waist too tight. When the lights dimmed, he murmured, “Open for me.” “Keep your eyes on me.” “I want you shaking for me, not for him.” Somewhere between hating him and wanting him to wreck me, everything blurred. Because the man who barked orders in boardrooms had me whispering his name in the dark, Christmas lights flickering over his bare shoulders while he swallowed every sound I made. My ex wanted me broken. Dante wanted me ruined, but only beneath him. And the worst part was how easily I let him. Santa didn’t bring me a miracle. He gave me a sin in a three piece suit and I tore the wrapping off with trembling hands.
