WAGERED TO THE BILLIONAIRE BLURB Sophia Mitchell never thought she’d be the prize in a high-stakes game of power and control.

As she fights for her freedom, their dangerous attraction spirals into something deeper, something forbidden. But when betrayals surface and dark pasts unravel, Sophia realizes the most dangerous game isn’t one played with cards—it’s the one being played with her heart. And in Alexander’s world, losing isn’t an option.
