Si West Lancaster o King of Hell, kung siya'y tawagin ng kanyang mga trabaho. Ito ay dahil wala ito ni isang kaso na hindi naipanalo.

At ngayon ay nagising itong may iilang piraso ng isang libo pagkatapos ng mainit nilang pinagsaluhan. Ano nga ba ang naghihintay kay Amber matapos niyang tratuhin bilang isang bayaran ang batikan at kilala sa kanyang ginagawa? Mauuwi ba ang isa sa hindi inaasahang kasunduan na maglalapit sa kanila o sa walang katapusang bangayan na sisira sa kanilang dalawa?

Dahil sa isang kontratang wala siyang lusot, napilitan siyang manatili sa piling ni Jaiden. Ngunit sa bawat araw na lumilipas, mas lalong lumalalim ang laban sa pagitan nila. Galit o tukso?

Ngunit sa larong ito, may kailangang matalo. May kailangang magsakripisyo. At may kailangang mawala. Sa huli, pag-ibig nga ba ang magpapalaya sa kanya—o ito rin ang tuluyang wawasak sa kanya?

Celeste Virelli is not your typical private investigator.

Her clients are wealthy women trapped in golden cages—wives who want out, but only if they can take half the fortune with them. Celeste doesn’t advertise. She doesn’t need to. Her name passes in whispers between yoga mats and charity galas, a whispered promise of justice wrapped in silk and steel. When Vivienne Cross, the young wife of tech mogul Julian Cross, walks into her office, Celeste expects another routine takedown. But Julian isn’t like the others. He’s elusive, calculating, and hiding more than just a wandering eye. As Celeste draws him into her web, she uncovers a deeper game—one that involves offshore accounts, a missing woman, and a secret that could destroy more than a marriage. For the first time, Celeste finds herself questioning the rules she’s lived by. Because this time, the seduction might not be an act. And the most dangerous lies aren’t the ones told in bed—they’re the ones we tell ourselves. The Seduction Clause is a taut, stylish psychological thriller about power, betrayal, and the cost of playing with fire where every glance is a gamble, and every kiss could be a weapon.
