**"Is that really her?" Someone asked. "I thought the photos were edited." Another person added. "She looks even larger in person." Someone else said and then snickered “I give the marriage six months." All the while, Elara kept her gaze on the tablecloth. White silk. Perfectly ironed. She counted the tiny patterns woven into the fabric to distract herself. One. Two. Three.** Elara Hart knew marrying billionaire heir Aaron Blackwood would never be a fairytale… but she never expected to become the unwanted wife living in the shadow of another woman. Cold, powerful, and impossible to read, Aaron keeps Elara at a distance while the world watches their marriage crumble under gossip, humiliation, and the constant presence of the woman he once loved.

But some secrets refuse to stay buried. As Aaron searches desperately for answers, hidden truths surrounding the Blackwood family begin surfacing—truths tied to obsession, betrayal, and a tragedy from years ago that may not have been an accident after all. Now the woman Aaron once rejected may be the only person who can uncover the truth. If it doesn’t destroy them both first.

Queenie
He shattered her heart to avenge a past that wasn’t hers. Now he desires her in his bed—as his wife. Marceline Valino once believed in love.

Private photos were leaked, her name dragged through the mud, and at the eye of the storm? Cross, smirking, cold, and ruthless. “You mean nothing to me,” he said, delivering a blow that would leave scars. “You’re just the bastard daughter of my father’s mistress.” His vengeance had never aimed at her heart; it was meant to punish the daughter for her mother’s sins—an ex-lover who had torn his family apart. Pregnant and abandoned, Marceline begged for mercy, but all she received was the echo of his silence. When she lost the child, she lost every last piece of the girl she used to be. Now, five years later, she’s preparing to return—broke, desperate, and willing to do anything to save her ailing mother. Anything… except this. Because the man extending a lifeline isn’t a savior. It’s Cross. And he has no desire for her heartfelt apologies; he craves her complete submission. A contract marriage awaits her. No love. No escape. No mercy. But Marceline isn’t the naive girl he once broke. She’s a woman who has risen from the ashes, ready to play his game. And as the pieces of their lives fall into place, she’s determining when—exactly—she will ignite a fire that could burn it all down. The future promises a reckoning, and she's preparing to seize it.
