He needed the perfect bride to win the election. She needed Washington's most powerful man to stay alive. Gabriel Vincent is the most ruthless defense attorney in the United States and a Senate candidate who refuses to fail. Carrying the scars of a brutal childhood and the haunting guilt over his younger brother’s death, he built an armor of coldness and arrogance that no one has ever managed to pierce. For him, power is not a luxury—it is the ultimate weapon to destroy the monsters of his past. However, to win over conservative voters, the party leadership hands him a non-negotiable ultimatum: present a fake fiancée by the end of the week. Angel Montgomery is a brilliant investigative journalist trying to rebuild her life away from the nightmare of Silverwood. A survivor of an attempted murder and a horrific betrayal by her ex-fiancé—a corrupt cop who tried to kill her and framed the case—she must protect her father and safeguard her own freedom. Yet, hunted and cornered by her attacker, Angel realizes her past is about to drag her under. A tense, electric encounter brings these two survivors together. Gabriel sees Angel’s flawless reputation and undeniable resilience as the perfect match for his political farce. Angel finds in the candidate's vast power and unyielding protection the single guarantee of keeping her stalker at bay. A strict marriage-of-convenience contract is drawn up: no feelings, a set expiration date, and strictly business. What neither anticipated was how forced proximity would turn friction into an unquenchable desire, awakening a dark attraction and an obsession that will shatter every clause of their agreement. How far would you go when a pact built on appearances becomes the ultimate safe haven for two broken souls?

A Frostbitten Luna. A Ruthless Alpha. A Shattered Bond. Genesis Wrenmoor thought she could protect her heart by freezing it. When she ended up pregnant after a wild, forbidden Solstice night with Draven Hollowmere—the brutal, dominant Alpha of Hollowmere Heights—she agreed to a marriage of alliance. But scarred by past loss and terrified of vulnerability, Genesis kept her powerful mate at arm's length, hiding her true feelings behind a mask of cold perfection. She thought they had time to heal. She was wrong. Heartbroken and starved for a real fated mate bond, Draven walks away, leaving Genesis with nothing but a cold bed and a signed petition to the High Council to sever their sacred mate bond. But as Draven prepares to claim a new, compliant Luna to secure his legacy, Genesis discovers a devastating truth: she is carrying his miracle pup. Now, with her powerful Wrenmoor family backing her, Genesis must return to the Silvermoon Dominion. She is no longer the quiet, frozen healer who let herself be pushed aside. To save her pup and reclaim her pride, she will make the arrogant Alpha who rejected her crawl on his knees for mercy. But when secrets of the pack betrayals come to light, will she take him back, or will she burn his empire to the ground with a new, stronger Alpha by her side?
