Gabriella still remembers what the kiss with her stepbrother felt like sweet, fast, unexpected, and forbidden. It was a moment that never left her heart, no matter how hard she tried to bury it. Five years later, the stepbrother she hadn’t seen since that night was standing right in front of her… as her housemate ☆☆☆ Gabriella moves to the city for college, expecting nothing more than a cramped apartment and an unfamiliar roommate. What she doesn’t expect is him — the boy who once shared her family, her memories, and her forbidden feelings. They were step-siblings once. Now they are strangers sharing the same walls… and the same unresolved tension. As old emotions resurface and temptation grows stronger with every stolen glance, Gabriella must decide: will she walk away from a love that should never exist, or surrender to the desire that refuses to die? Some arrows, once released, can never be taken back.

My husband took everything away from me. I trusted him completely — until I learned he was sleeping with my worst enemy, Vivian, and draining my fortune into her hands. I filed for divorce, but he fought to keep me trapped. The day it was finally finalized, I was nearly killed in a staged accident. Everyone believed I died. I didn't. With my best friend's help, my death was faked and I vanished to heal in secret. Weeks later, I woke up to discover my husband had married Vivian on the day of my funeral — moving her and their child into my home. He have taken all that I worked hard to get. I can't come back as myself. So I changed my face, became a maid, and returned to the house that was once mine — to reclaim everything he stole. Posing as nothing more than hired help, I start uncovering secrets no one meant for me to find — hidden conversations, buried lies, and proof that my "accident" was no accident at all. Someone helped my husband try to kill me, and I intend to find out who. Now, invisible in my own home, I have to expose every secret before they realize the maid they walk past every day is the wife they thought was dead.

“Tristan… stop… I’m preg—” The word dissolved into a moan as he curled his fingers and drove them harder. “Already dreaming about spreading your legs for him, huh?” He didn’t hear her. Or he didn’t care. (Tell him. Just say it. But if I do… will he keep me only because of the baby? Or will he hate me more for tying him down?) “Was that why you were so desperate to get away?” He sped up his rhythm, driving his fingers faster and harder until the room echoed with wet, slapping sounds, and her slickness dripped down her thighs. “I'm going to fix you.” —Tristan Cole gave Lyra Quinn three things on the day he ended their marriage: divorce papers, another woman’s hand in his, and a lifetime of regret waiting to happen. He didn’t know Lyra was carrying his child. He didn’t know the woman he called “too much” was the city's most sought-after crisis negotiator—the woman billion-dollar companies called when they were on the verge of collapse. And he certainly didn’t know that walking away from her would place her in the path of Laurent Crawford, the ruthless billionaire whose empire is falling apart. Laurent needs Lyra to save his company. Lyra needs the job to rebuild her life. Neither expects the dangerous attraction that grows between them. But when the crisis threatening Laurent’s empire begins reaching into Lyra’s own past, she realizes someone has been playing a much bigger game than either of them knew. Tristan threw away the woman he couldn’t appreciate; Laurent knows better. But loving Laurent may cost her everything. And this time, The Last Call has nowhere left to run.
