The CEO's Dept: One Night with the Merciless Emperor
"I sold my soul to the devil to save my life, only to find out the devil wanted my heart.”
“One year. No feelings. Just a contract. When the time is up, you leave with nothing.”
Gabrielle Daniels was the discarded "Jewel" of the Daniels family, drugged and sold by her stepmother to pay off her father’s gambling debts. To escape a fate worse than death, she crawls into the suite of the most dangerous man in Celios City—Ethan Shore, the cold-blooded "Emperor" of the Shore Corporation.
She thought he was her temporary shield. He thought she was just another gold-digger.
But when Gabrielle tears up his five-million-dollar check and demands a marriage certificate instead, the game changes. Under the silk sheets and behind the closed doors of the Shore Estate, a "contract" becomes a battlefield of desire.
As her enemies conspire to ruin her and ghosts from the past return to claim Ethan’s heart, Gabrielle must decide: Is she a pawn in his corporate war, or is she the only woman capable of taming the beast?
He thought he bought a wife. He didn’t realize he’d met his match.
