Diamonds In The Rough

Sasha Lane has sworn off men, especially those with money and power. Growing up on the streets taught her that trust is a dangerous luxury, and love even more so. But when her younger brother’s life is threatened by a ruthless mafia family, she’s forced into a devil’s bargain: marry Dominic Knight, a powerful billionaire CEO and the secret Alpha of a deadly werewolf pack, or watch everything she loves burn. Dominic is a man used to getting what he wants. Cold, calculating, and ferociously possessive, he needs an heir to solidify his empire, and Sasha is the perfect candidate. There’s only one problem—Sasha is human, and Dominic’s world is filled with danger, enemies, and secrets that could destroy her. From the moment they meet, the attraction between them is undeniable, wild, and uncontrollable. But while their bodies ignite with a passion neither can resist, their hearts remain locked in a battle of wills. Just as Sasha begins to fall for the man behind the power and the primal beast within him, a deadly betrayal rips them apart. An old flame from Dominic’s past resurfaces, threatening to take everything from Sasha—her love, her child, and her very life. With a dangerous enemy closing in, Sasha must decide whether she can trust Dominic’s promises of protection—or if she’s already lost everything in this deadly game of power, lust, and desire. In a world where nothing is as it seems and danger lurks in every shadow, can Sasha survive Dominic’s dark, twisted love? Or will their passionate bond be the thing that destroys them both?

Imagine my shock when I found out that my husband, a professor who had proudly embraced a childless life for half of his years, had an affair with one of his own students. She even had his six-year-old son. The day I planned to report him to the university, Zia Thompson came to my door with the child and knelt in front of me. "Maybe you and Zeke were in love once," she said. "But he's over forty now. Who doesn't want to have a child? A legacy?" "I don't need a title," she went on. "I can give up the child too. I just beg you, don't tear our family apart." I looked at my husband, who stood protectively in front of them. I felt terrifyingly calm. "Cut ties with them," I said, my voice flat, "or prepare to be reported to the university. You choose." Without a moment's hesitation, he tore the report letter into shreds. I thought that was his answer. But on the fifty-second night of a bed grown cold and a home echoing with silence, he still hadn't returned. Instead, I received news that Zia was pregnant again. She had graduated by then. The report I never sent no longer posed any threat to them. Zeke didn't bother to hide his fatigue and irritation anymore. "Treat Zia and the kids well," he said, "or keep living alone in that empty house. It's your choice." My heart was already a wasteland. "I have one more option," I said. "I choose divorce."
