Three women, three brothers, a single, crumpled dollar bill. Alina’s world shatters the moment she’s auctioned off—and claimed by the powerful Hawthorne brothers. Thrown into Adrian Hawthorne’s cold, dangerous world, she becomes his to control… his to protect… and, terrifyingly, his to desire. He’s ruthless, possessive, and hiding secrets that could destroy them both. But the deeper she falls into his world, the harder it becomes to tell if she’s his prisoner—or something far more dangerous. Because the Hawthorne brothers don’t just take. They keep. Viviane has spent her life surviving, so when Julian Hawthorne “buys” her freedom, she knows better than to trust it. Men like him don’t save people—they collect them.

Especially when she realizes she might be the only thing he’s ever been willing to fight for. Lena doesn’t belong to anyone—and she intends to keep it that way. Brilliant, guarded, and hiding more than anyone suspects, she enters Lucien Hawthorne’s world on her own terms. But Lucien doesn’t play fair, and he doesn’t let go. When her past comes crashing back, Lena is forced to face the one thing she’s been running from: trusting someone who could destroy her… or save her. Three women. Three choices.Stay. Fight. Or burn it all down. Because being sold was only the beginning.

“I never let go,” he says to her, voice deep and intoxicating. “After you, there’ll be no one else. I’m going to want all of you. Every part of you, Sophia.” ~ Alexander Thorne is vice—danger wrapped in billions, immorality, and a smile that feels like sin. And unfortunately for Sophia Rose, he’s the man she’s been arranged to marry. Sophia may be young, spoiled, and rich, but she’s done having her life dictated for her. With her father’s crumbling empire and society waiting to feast on their downfall, she’s got only two escape routes: RUN or be SOLD. No one warned her that Alexander would become her weakness. She shouldn’t want a man like him. Marrying him shouldn’t even be an option. But, Alexander is so deliciously irresistible.

By the time she realizes that he’s the thorn that will ruin her, she’s far too trapped to run. ~ Content Warning: This book contains mature and sensitive themes, including sexual sins, exploitation, and manipulation, addiction, trauma, violence, and emotional struggles.

She thought signing the contract would save her life. A simple agreement. A temporary marriage. No emotions. No attachments. Just survival. But nothing about him is simple. He is Adrian Blackwood — a ruthless billionaire CEO who built his empire on control, power, and fear. A man who never bends. Never breaks. Never loves. Until her. She was never supposed to matter. Never supposed to stay. Just a signature on paper meant to disappear when the contract ended. But the more she resists him, the more obsessed he becomes. And the more he pulls her into his world of luxury, danger, and dark desires, the more she realizes one terrifying truth… This was never just a contract. Because in his eyes, she doesn’t belong to herself anymore. She belongs to him. And once the ruthless billionaire claims something… he never lets it go.

Clara Sterling was born into power—until her family's billion-dollar empire collapsed overnight. With her father facing criminal charges and the Sterling name reduced to a liability, Clara has nothing left but the remnants of a fortune she can no longer protect. Desperate to survive, she enters the Midnight Gala, an underground auction where fallen heiresses are sold to the highest bidder. She expects a stranger. Instead, the winning bid belongs to Ares Volkov, the ruthless tech titan who engineered her family's downfall. Ares binds Clara to a contract, intending to use her position, her inheritance, and her connection to the Sterling family to finish the revenge he has spent years building. To him, Clara is simply the final piece of a war that began long before she understood it. But Clara refuses to become anyone's obedient possession. The closer they grow, the harder it becomes to separate Ares's original obsession with revenge from the love he never intended to feel. Because the greatest threat to their future may not be the Sterling secrets, the Volkov enemies, or the expiration of their contract. It may be the question neither of them is prepared to answer: When the contract ends and neither of them is obligated to stay, will they choose each other anyway?
