Celeste Vane was twenty-four when Diana Hale dismantled her family’s company with a legal maneuver so precise it left no trace of wrongdoing — only ruin. Four years later, Celeste returns. She walks into Hale Group as a junior financial analyst, unseen and underestimated. But she has already spent years quietly acquiring fragments of the very system that destroyed her family. Every step inside the company brings her closer to reclaiming what was taken. And closer to Marcus Hale. Marcus is nothing like what she expected. Controlled, perceptive, and infuriatingly fair, he is the one man who sees the real structure of her mind — and the one person she cannot afford to be seen by for too long. Celeste is not there to survive Hale Group. She is there to dismantle it from within. But the longer she stays, the more the lines blur. Marcus begins to trust her. And against every rule she has lived by, she begins to trust him back. Then there is Diana Hale — watching Celeste’s rise with quiet precision, as though she has been expecting her return all along. As buried financial truths surface and old alliances fracture, Celeste faces a choice she never designed for: the revenge she built her entire life around, or the man who makes her question whether the woman she became in pursuit of it is someone worth keeping. When Diana finally moves, Celeste will have to decide what reclamation actually means — because what she built in the wreckage may be worth more than anything taken from her.

BLURB For three years, Seraphina gave everything she had to a man who never saw her clearly. She cooked, she endured, she stayed quiet through every insult his family threw at her, and she secretly kept his failing business alive from the shadows, without him ever knowing it was her. Then his first love walked back through the door, and Seraphina disappeared. She walked out as his invisible wife and came back as Seraphina Vaughn, the hidden heiress of the most powerful family in the country. The woman two dangerous older brothers would tear the world apart for, the woman every powerful man in the city now wants standing beside him. Damian thought she would come back within a week; but he was wrong. Instead, he discovered that the woman he had ignored was the reason his business had ever survived, that the wife he had underestimated was now the one name every boardroom feared and that the brothers she had never mentioned were already deciding what happened to the people who had hurt their sister. Now Seraphina has a choice: the man who broke her is on his knees, but can a woman who gave everything trust the same hands that let her fall?

Arthur Black is the heir to the Alpha position in the Northland pack. He's cold and decisive, and he intimidates the rest of the pack. All in all, he's a cold-blooded black wolf. But after he and I get together, he formally announces to the entire pack that I, Ella Grant, am his mate. He never speaks with other she-wolves just to make me feel extremely secure. But what he doesn't know is that I've already personally witnessed his betrayal to my love. On the night of the full moon, Arthur embraces a sexy she-wolf while kissing her. He remarks casually, "Ella told me before that she will leave me if she ever finds out that I've cheated on her. I love her, and I can't ever lose her. "That's why you'd better not expose our affair to Ella. Otherwise… well, you know the consequences of doing so." The she-wolf, Lilian Frisk, retorts in displeasure, "Then why did you still seek me out?" Arthur smiles. "I'm just toying around with you, you see. You know that the she-wolf I love is Ella. But I've been staring at her face and sleeping with her for seven whole years. Even a devoted wolf like me needs something new every now and then."

Usia pernikahanku dengan mas Gibran sudah memasuki usia dua tahun. Namun, aku belum juga dikaruniai seorang anak dan itu membuat mamah mertua yang memang dari awal tidak menyukaiku makin membenci karena tidak bisa memberinya seorang cucu. Berbagai cara sudah mamah mertua lakukan agar aku bercerai dengan suamiku atau paling tidak suamiku mau menikah lagi dengan pilihannya sendiri, tapi jelas saja aku tidak ingin itu terjadi, jadi dengan caraku sendiri semua rencana mamah mertuaku itu gagal. Namun, pada suatu pagi aku tidak sengaja mendengar samar suara tangisan bayi, karena penasaran aku mengikuti sumber suara itu. Selagi langkahku mendekati suara tangisan bayi itu, aku mengingat-ngingat tidak ada rumah tetangga yang mempunyai seorang bayi. Lalu suara tangisan bayi siapa itu? Saat membuka pintu, betapa terkejutnya aku karena menemukan seorang bayi dalam kardus lengkap dengan tali pusarnya yang masih menggantung. Bayi siapa ini? ***

Begitu mulai makan, suamiku langsung tidak dapat mengendalikan mulutnya. Pengalaman tragisku saat masih sekolah pun menjadi “obrolan” dia dan teman-temannya. “Dulu, dia ditelanjangi di kamar mandi. Habis itu, dia dipukul sampai merangkak di lantai, tapi tetap nggak berani bersuara. Kalau bukan karena aku baik hati ....” Kesabaranku akhirnya sudah habis. Aku pun mengajukan cerai. Namun, dia tidak peduli. “Ini cuma candaan kok. Lagian, kejadian itu sudah berlalu begitu lama. Kok kamu kecil hati banget! Kami cuma mau senang-senang kok!” Mau senang-senang? Memangnya hanya aku sendiri yang punya masa lalu? Kenapa dia tidak mengungkit tentang skandal teman semasa kecilnya? Baiklah. Hanya “mau senang-senang”, ‘kan? Aku harap teman semasa kecilnya itu juga berpikiran sama!
