Across The Dangerous Ocean

"Isang pirma sa kontrata… Isang kasunduan sa demonyo… Isang pag-ibig na parang bitag." Para kay Ava Castillo, ang kasal sa isang kontrata kay Dominic Velasco—isang bilyonaryong kilala sa pagiging malupit at walang puso—ay isang hakbang papunta sa gantimpala… o kapahamakan. Wala siyang ibang choice kundi tanggapin ang alok niya, pero hindi lang si Dominic ang may lihim—Ava has her own revenge to take. Pero hindi niya inaasahan kung gaano kalalim ang obsession ng lalaki sa kanya. Hindi lang kasal ang gusto nito. Gusto siyang ariin isip, katawan, at kaluluwa. Habang unti-unting lumalantad ang mga madidilim na sikreto, hindi na alam ni Ava kung sino ang tunay na biktima. Siya ba ang nagtratraydor o siya ang naloloko? Sa larong ito kung saan pag-ibig ang armas, tiwala ang pinakamapanganib, at ang pagnanasa ay lason, sino ang tuluyang mabibitag? Isang intense na billionaire romance na puno ng mind games, revenge, at isang obsessive na pagmamahal na maaaring sumira o magligtas sa kanila.

**Warning: This book contains mature sex scenes, "I hate you," she whispered — breathless, furious, aching. "I hate you more," he growled back. And then he made her forget every man who came before him. Rhaena thought she knew what was missing from her life — until her boyfriend called her boring in bed. Two years together. Not a single orgasm. Done with shame, done with faking, she makes a decision that will unravel everything: one night, one stranger, an elite escort and a dark sex club where no one knows her name. The masked man who finds her there doesn't just give her pleasure. He ruins her — for every other man, for every careful, curated version of herself she's ever performed. But when she leaves, a message arrives: a refund. A record that says she was never there. And before she can make sense of it, her mother drops another bomb — she's engaged. There's a dinner. A mansion. A future stepbrother named Alessio, who looks at Rhaena like she's a problem he wants to destroy. Cold. Hostile. Magnetic in a way that makes her teeth ache. When she overhears him cutting her apart with words, she doesn't run. She fights back. And something ignites between them — sharp as a blade, hot as a wound — something neither of them is willing to name. Because the line between hatred and desire isn't just thin. It's already been crossed. What happens when Rhaena realizes the masked man who woke her body, who owned her in the dark — is her future stepbrother? What happens when Alessio discovers that the woman he can't stand is Cherry — the one he can't stop thinking about? Some secrets don't stay buried. And some hatreds are just love that hasn't lost control.
