At Trevor and Amber's wedding, the elusive and powerful head of the Levine Group, Sebastian Levine, made a grand appearance, one arm wrapped possessively around a woman's waist. A trace of mockery curved his lips as he apologized, "I'm sorry. My wife and I are late." Trevor couldn't believe his eyes. The woman he'd cast aside only two months ago ,his former fiancée-had become his uncle's wife?! One night, half-drunk and unwilling to let go, Trevor called Serena, hoping to win her back. Over the phone, his voice was low, stripped of arrogance and edged with desperation. "Serena... can we start over? Please. I really miss you." Sebastian's gaze turned icy as he took the call, his voice cold and cutting. "Calling your aunt at three in the morning, have you lost your mind?" Disturbed from her sleep, the woman frowned and let out a soft, displeased murmur. Trevor then heard his stern, aloof uncle soften instantly, coaxing her with indulgent affection. "Good girl... come here. Let me hold you while you sleep."

Thirty-one days. Seven pages. One rule: don't lie to each other. Elodie Marchetti built her father's chocolate empire with her own hands — 312 shops, doubled revenue, her mother's legacy in every box. Now her father says she'll only inherit the chair if she brings someone to the family table by Christmas. Julian Hale is called the Iceberg for a reason. 44 ships, no wife, no time. His grandmother's trust says he must present a fiancée at Hollin Hall by Christmas Eve, or his family's company will be split and sold. They have known each other for nine minutes total. His solution? A contract. 31 days from December 1st to 31st. Separate bedrooms. No touching unless an audience requires it. In January, they part quietly. No feelings. Just signatures. Elodie adds one rule of her own: Section Twelve: Neither party will lie to the other about anything that is not in this contract. It's easy — until they reach Hollin Hall, Vermont. Until his beautiful ex-fiancée arrives in a cream coat and says "Hello, Jules." Until his 81-year-old grandmother starts testing her with cinnamon rolls at 2 a.m. Until the man who never sleeps starts following her into the kitchen to learn how to knead dough. A fake engagement. A real family. A secret about the night his parents died on the Meridian Star. And a contract that said not to lie — but said nothing about falling in love. Slow-burn | Fake Engagement to Real Love | Billionaire Grumpy x Sunshine Baker | Found Family | Cinnamon Rolls & Second Chances For readers 21 and over.

“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.
