TWO PINK LINES, ONE NIGHT STAND --- Beth Williams knew the rules at Knight Tower: clean, stay invisible, never look the billionaire in the eye. She broke them all at the masquerade gala. One spilled drink on CEO Adrian Knight became a $50,000 dance. One dance became one elevator. One night in a masked stranger’s arms became two pink lines six weeks later. Now Beth is fired, homeless, and pregnant with Adrian’s baby. He doesn’t remember her face from that night, but he remembers the scandal: a cleaner accused of corporate espionage. When she tells him the truth, Adrian voids his engagement to shipping heiress Valeria D’Souza and moves Beth into his penthouse that night. There are no phones. No unlocked doors. No escape. Adrian calls it “protection.” Beth calls it a gilded cage. He’s haunted by his mother’s death in childbirth and believes control keeps people alive. His heir will not grow up poor, endangered, or unloved, even if he has to become a monster to guarantee it. But Valeria brings a knife to Beth’s throat. The board demands a paternity test. And when Beth bleeds at 14 weeks, Adrian flies them to a private island with no way out. Trapped together, Beth learns Adrian kept her hairpin from that night. He never forgot her. She was his first choice in ten years, not a mistake. When premature labor, CPS, and his own trauma collide, Adrian must decide what he fears more: losing control, or losing her. Because Knights don’t lose what’s theirs. The question is whether Beth will choose to be his.

Il y a cinq ans, j'ai été droguée, piégée et humiliée. Ma sœur a volé mon fiancé. Les médias m'ont traitée de pute. Et j'ai disparu — avec un secret que personne n'avait vu venir. Maintenant je suis de retour. Plus sexy, plus riche, et tenant l'AS qu'ils regretteront tous d'avoir abandonné. J'ai une entreprise à développer, un enfant à élever, et oh — devinez qui est chargé d'approuver l'entrée de ma société aux États-Unis ? Exactement. Le même homme avec qui j'ai été droguée pour coucher. Et le pire ? C'est un salaud arrogant qui s'attend à ce que le monde lui baise les pieds. Alors voici mon plan. 1. Le faire tomber. 2. Les faire tous ramper. 3. Ne jamais, au grand jamais, développer des sentiments. Mais le destin a un sens de l'humour tordu. Tout comme le karma. Cher ex, je ne suis pas revenue pour être aimée. Je suis revenue pour vous faire tous étouffer de regrets.
