Damilola Joy

"Her name is Anna," my father announced, his hand resting proudly on her shoulder. "She is my biological daughter, kidnapped at the age of three and lost for many years. And from today onward, she will take over Quinn's Enterprise as the new CEO and my successor." The room froze. "No… no, this can't be happening…" Melissa whispered, her voice trembling. ""Did I hear that right or am I drunk again?"" Just a few minutes ago, both of us stood here confidently assuming she was some random waiter. And now, reality crashed down on them. They say revenge is a dish best served cold. Mine's been chilling for five years. The night James Reed kicked me out of his life, I was pregnant, penniless, and naive enough to believe love mattered more than money. He taught me better. When you're bleeding out in the rain, clutching your stomach while your best friend laughs from his doorway, you learn exactly what you're worth to people like them. Zero. But the woman who nearly died that night? She stayed dead. The one who came back is someone else entirely. Anna Quinn. Lost daughter of California's most powerful family. CEO of her own pharmaceutical empire. And the silent majority shareholder in James Reed's failing company. He's about to learn what happens when you build an empire on stolen foundations. His marriage has cracks he doesn't see. And the investors keeping him afloat? They answer to me now. He thinks he's untouchable. That my formula made him invincible. But success built on stolen work has a way of crumbling when the original genius decides to pull the rug out. I don't want him back. I want him ruined. And this time, I'm the one holding all the cards.

Alcohol and heartbreak are definitely not a good combo.Too bad I learnt that a little too late. I’m Tessa Beckett and I painfully got dumped by my boyfriend of three years.That led me to getting drunk at a bar and having a one-night stand with a stranger.Before he would see me as a sl*t the next day,I paid him for the s*x and deeply insulted his ability to please me. But this stranger turned out to be my new boss!

“Do you feel that, Wren? That pull between us?” His eyes darken, flicking to my mouth. “It’s wrong. Your brother would sl*t my throat for even standing this close. But tell me, little bird—” his breath ghosts against my skin, “—are you trembling because you hate me… or because you’ve wanted this as much as I have?” >>> Wren thought she’d left the chaos of New Orleans behind; the club life, the blood-soaked loyalty, the men who lived and died by their kuttes. Seattle gave her everything she could ever want—freedom, love, a future. But one betrayal sends it all crashing down. Dragged back home by tragedy, Wren finds herself under the watchful eye of Ezra Jax, the vice president of the Raven Reapers MC, and her brother’s best friend. He’s infuriating, dangerous, and far too tempting. But the deeper she’s pulled into his world, the more she realizes that nothing about her past or Ezra, is what she thought. Yet in the chaos of gang wars, debts, and betrayals, he’s the one who never leaves her side. The more she fights him, the harder she falls. And the more he pushes her away, the more dangerous his pull becomes. Because in this world, love isn’t sweet. It’s brutal, bloody, and bound to break them both. When loyalty is everything and love can cost your life, will Wren risk her heart on the one man she was never meant to love?

I heard my Brother's voice, though I couldn't catch what he said. I looked at him. "Meet my fiancèe, Charissa. Charissa, meet my Sister Royal, but we call her Ry or handsome." He said with a smile. That was when I noticed he was with someone, I turned to where she was standing. My mouth was left hanging. 'Sweet mercy! This girl is gorgeous! how come I didn't notice her?' Well, trust my thoughts to always stray. I smiled at her. "Nice to meet you, Charissa."
