Elle pensait ne passer qu’un simple entretien d’embauche. Lui ne cherchait pas une assistante… mais un moyen de régler un problème bien plus personnel. Alaya, jeune femme ambitieuse mais ruinée par les dettes laissées par son père, se présente dans la luxueuse tour d’Aiden Kane, PDG froid, impitoyable et connu pour ne jamais mêler affaires et sentiments.

En échange, il remboursera toutes ses dettes et lui garantira une carrière dans son entreprise. Entre voyages d’affaires aux quatre coins du monde, soirées mondaines où chaque geste est scruté, et un milliardaire qui semble cacher plus de blessures que de richesses, Alaya découvre que ce contrat pourrait bien lui coûter plus que son cœur… et que dans ce jeu dangereux, rompre l’accord pourrait être la plus grave des erreurs.

Sienna Calder swore she’d never touch her father’s world—Dorian Ashford, shipping mogul and billionaire king, left her mom to rot while he built his empire. She’s there to curse his grave when he dies, not to claim a dime. But his will traps her, naming her co-heir to his $50 billion legacy alongside Roman Valtieri, the brooding, hard-edged protégé who’s clawed his way into Dorian’s shadow—and now into hers. They’re to run the empire together or lose it all, and Sienna hates him for it: too slick, too close, every look a spark she doesn’t want. Then a letter from Dorian’s cold hand ignites the fire—he was murdered, and Roman’s name’s scratched beside the truth. A silver key and a vial of blood—hers, his—drag her deeper, promising answers locked in Ashford estate.But the walls crash in fast: Ezra Locke, a scarred snake with a grin like a blade, wants that key, and he’ll drown the place to get it. Roman’s her lifeline—gun drawn, hands steady, pulling her from the flood—and she loathes how his touch burns, how his voice steadies her when the water’s at her throat. Caught between rage and a pull she can’t name, Sienna fights the heat growing with every near miss—Roman’s too damn solid, too damn close, and she’s torn between shoving him away and pulling him in. The empire’s crumbling, the cliff’s falling, and Ezra’s not the only shadow circling—something darker watches, waiting. Love’s a gamble when blood’s the stake, and Sienna’s playing with a deck her father rigged. Can she trust Roman’s hands to hold her up, or will the crown they’re fighting for crush them both in its ashes?
