A high-stakes clash of wills that melts into a breathless, opulent sensual awakening.
What it feels like
Reading this book feels like stepping into a whirlwind of high-stakes boardroom tension and opulent, feverish romance. It delivers the classic, breathless rush of a category romance, where every glance is loaded and every argument edges closer to an inevitable, explosive surrender. The atmosphere is thick with a delicious, melodramatic tension, contrasting the cold, rigid world of corporate deals with the messy, overwhelming heat of a sensual awakening. The prose is fast and dialogue-driven, keeping the emotional stakes sky-high as the characters strip away each other's carefully constructed defenses. It is a perfect, indulgent escape for readers who devour intense power dynamics, demanding alpha heroes, and the deeply satisfying trope of a marriage of convenience turning into an all-consuming passion.

About the book
When Elaine gives her business presentation to Marco De Luca she thinks she can be cool, calm and collected. She’s wrong! The fierce tycoon can see straight through her shapeless suits and scraped back hair and get right under her skin... Ruthless awakening! She may have proposed marriage as the perfect business arrangement, but suddenly Elaine’s not quite so confident. Marco’s made it clear that he’s no modern man – if he takes a wife he wants a ravishing beauty by his side, and at his beck and call day...and night!
