Pour sauver l'entreprise familiale, Gabriel Steele accepte un mariage arrangé avec Sophia Rothschild — la rivale de longue date de sa famille. Sur le papier, c'est une fusion. Dans les faits, ce sont deux personnes très compétentes qui partagent un appartement et tentent de garder leur accord strictement professionnel. C'est plus difficile que ça en a l'air.

Avery Bennett moved away to outrun a life that felt too small. At twenty-five, she's back in her childhood bedroom with a faded motivational poster and a graphic design portfolio that needs rebuilding—and her brother's best friend is working a job forty feet from her back door. Noah Carter has been Jake's best friend for almost a decade. He's been in love with Avery for most of it. He's also been very careful, because Jake is the kind of friend who doesn't deserve a betrayal, and Avery is exactly the kind of person worth not ruining things for. Except she's home now. And the careful thing...

Son père a perdu une partie de cartes. Elle est la mise. — A-t-elle accepté ? Viktor dit qu'elle comprendra. Elle ne comprend pas. Pas encore. Le jour, Elara Voss est la nouvelle stagiaire chez Vasin Group, faisant ses preuves dans des salles de conseil remplies d'hommes qui la sous-estiment — y compris son patron dangereusement attentif, Nikolaï Vasin. La nuit, elle est conduite dans un domaine privé à l'extérieur de Seattle, masquée et liée par contrat à un homme dont elle croit reconnaître la voix, dont elle a négocié les règles par écrit, et dont le contrôle commence ...

She knows who he is now. It doesn't help. "Find out what Vasin is currently protecting. Not his assets. Something personal." The masks are gone. The parallel worlds have collapsed. Elara knows that her boss and the man at the estate are the same person—and she stayed. Not because of the debt. She made sure he understood the difference. But knowing the truth and trusting the man who hid it are two very different things. Nikolai's instinct is still to protect her by controlling what she knows. And the walls she took down for him? She can put them back up faster than he can explain. Then ...

She has her name on the door now. He has a decision that will cost him everything—and he makes it without her asking. "How's the girl?" "Still at Vasin Group. Promoted again last month." "Good. Let her settle." Elara Voss is a Senior Analyst with a glass-walled office, a reputation that makes people stop talking when she walks into a room, and the kind of relationship with Nikolai Vasin that's built on wreckage and rebuilt on choice. They're good. Settled in the way that only comes after you've already broken each other and decided to stay. Dominic Rael is about to test exactly how much ...

Her father lost a card game. She's the payout. "Has she agreed to this?" Viktor says she'll understand. She doesn't. Not yet. By day, Elara Voss is the new intern at Vasin Group, proving herself in boardrooms full of men who underestimate her—including her dangerously attentive boss, Nikolai Vasin. By night, she's driven to a private estate outside Seattle, masked and contracted to a man whose voice she almost recognizes, whose rules she negotiated in writing, and whose control is starting to crack in ways neither of them expected. She doesn't know these men are the same person. You know....

C’est le meilleur ami de mon frère. L’homme qui m’est interdit. Et le seul auquel je ne peux résister. Quand je reviens m’installer dans la maison de mon enfance au bord du lac, la dernière chose à laquelle je m’attends, c’est de tomber sur Noah Carter — sortant tout juste de la douche, dégoulinant et vêtu d’une simple serviette. Il y a sept ans, le meilleur ami de Jake n’était qu’un adolescent dégingandé qui nous accompagnait lors de nos voyages en famille. Aujourd’hui, c’est un entrepreneur aux larges épaules, aux mains rêches, au regard de braise et au ...

Jake Bennett ran a blind portfolio review. He followed the process. He made the right call. Then he opened the full submission and found that L. West—whose photography portfolio had just earned a unanimous committee vote—was Lily West. Noah's stepsister. Someone he used to know, in a small town that remembers everything, where he is about to spend the next three months working alongside her on the most important festival of his career. He keeps it professional. So does she. The festival is good—the best Marigold Cove has had in years—and the work they do together is genuinely ...

He was sent to erase her. Instead, he became the only thing standing between her and the men who want her dead. Daniel Brooks doesn’t make mistakes. He completes contracts. He leaves no witnesses. He never hesitates. Until Megan Collins. She’s not reckless. She’s not loud. She’s not looking for trouble. She’s an environmental compliance auditor who followed irregular paperwork tied to a Chicago riverfront freight expansion — and found something she wasn’t meant to see. Inside The Brokerage, people like Megan aren’t murdered. They’re processed. “Loss mitigation.” Dock ...

She’s the boss’s daughter. I’m the blue-collar contractor. We’re from different worlds—and crossing this line could cost me everything. When Sienna Hart struts onto my job site in designer heels and a hard hat, I figure she’s just another spoiled heiress playing dress-up. I’m wrong. She’s smart, gorgeous, and knows more about structural integrity than half my crew. Working together should be simple. Instead, every late-night planning session, every heated argument, every brush of her hand pulls me deeper into dangerous territory. She’s completely off-limits. Corporate ...

He needed someone to save his company's reputation. He didn't expect her to change his. When Nathaniel Steele's family empire is rocked by a federal investigation, he hires Isabella Chen—the sharpest crisis consultant in Manhattan—to manage the fallout. She's handled corporate disasters before. She knows exactly how to control the narrative, protect the innocent, and navigate rooms full of powerful men who don't want to hear the truth. What she didn't account for was Nathaniel himself. A man who, unlike every other client she's had, keeps choosing accountability over convenience—even ...

In Ridgeline Falls, no one makes promises they can’t keep. They just show up. Lucy Harper didn’t come to the mountains to be saved. She came to disappear quietly, finish her work, and keep her footing after a relationship that faded instead of broke. Independence is her armor, and she wears it well. Then something in the cabin starts to fail. Tom Bennett is the man everyone calls when things break. A general contractor. Volunteer fire crew. Steady hands, few words. He doesn’t ask questions that aren’t necessary, and he never offers help he can’t back up. He fixes what needs fixing...

He came to make things right. She's spent three years making sure that's exactly what happens. Sebastian Steele knows his family's company contaminated Millbrook's water supply. He's seen the maps. He knows what the soil tests say. And unlike every other person in his corporate circle, he intends to do something about it—even if it means burning his family's legal strategy to the ground. Emma Thompson has been waiting for a Steele to show up in her town. She just didn't expect one who meant it. As Millbrook's mayor—and the attorney who built the contamination case—Emma has no reason ...

My new boss is a widowed single dad. Off-limits. Untouchable. So why am I falling for him—and his six-year-old son? When I accept the job caring for little Tommy, I expect simple routines and professional boundaries. I don’t expect Ethan Crawford—the devastatingly handsome architect who looks at me like I’m the answer to prayers he’s too afraid to voice.
