Ryan Carter came to Arkwood University to escape his past—especially Jake, the possessive ex who blurred every line between love and control. But his “fresh start” takes a messy turn when he clashes with Daniel Brooks: the cold, perfect, student-body VP with too much power and zero patience for Ryan’s sharp tongue. They hate each other on sight. But hate has a way of burning too hot—and the line between enemies and something else is thinner than either of them is ready for. What starts as tension becomes obsession. And when the past comes knocking, Ryan finds himself stuck between who he was, who he’s becoming, and a boy he never planned to want.

She signed the contract to escape her past. But she never expected to uncover a truth that would change everything. After losing everything, Abigail Carter is left with an impossible choice—become a pawn in a world that seeks to destroy her or sign a contract with the ruthless billionaire Luke Jargon Vandell. Their marriage is nothing but a business deal, a cold exchange of power and control. No love. No trust. Just survival. From the moment Luke slides the ring onto her finger, he makes one thing clear: This isn’t just business. Abigail was always meant to be his. Determined to break free, Abigail refuses to be controlled. But Luke is a man who always gets what he wants—and the more she resists, the more dangerous their game becomes. Hatred turns to tension. Tension turns to desire. And desire threatens to consume them both. But just when she thinks she understands the man she married, Oscar Dixon enters her life. Wealthy, powerful, and strangely drawn to Abigail, Oscar is determined to protect her from Luke. Yet the connection between them runs deeper than she could ever imagine. Then the truth shatters everything—Abigail isn’t who she thinks she is. She is the long-lost heiress to a powerful empire. And Oscar? He’s not just some stranger—he’s the twin brother she never knew she had. Worse still, Luke knew all along. Betrayed and torn between the man who trapped her in a marriage of lies and the brother who offers her the truth, Abigail must make an impossible choice: stay with the man who broke her heart or reclaim the life that was stolen from her. In a world of power, secrets, and deception—who will truly own Abigail’s fate?
