ELLA
It’s the wedding of the year—a lavish union of two powerhouses. But I’m only here for vengeance against the woman who stole my position as sole heir to my late father’s company, TimeGem Moments, and shipped me off to boarding school. I’ve only made more enemies since. Tonight is my chance to reclaim control. Tonight, TimeGem’s diamond-powered servers are this girl’s best friend. Unless he ruins everything. Justice Beathach, the groom’s unbearably hot brother, with hands built for war and a mouth that spells destruction. He’s lethal, unyielding, and now has me in his crosshairs . . .
JUSTICE
Ella Rendale almost killed my brother once. Now, at his own wedding, she’s almost done it again. I don’t care if he’s forgiven her or if she’s been wronged. I care about one thing: the locked flash drive she leaves behind, spelling my destruction. She can run, she can hide, but when I find her, she’ll give me what I want. But someone else wants her even more than I do—they want her dead. When our enemies close in, I’m forced to protect her, turning the fire between us into an uncontrollable weapon. Now, she’s not just my quarry—she’s my obsession. And I’ll kill anyone who even thinks of taking her from me . . .
Succession meets Black Mirror with the morally gray heat of Scarlett St. Clair and the addictively immersive realities of Rebecca Yarros or Sarah J. Maas, as obsession takes center stage in this steamy, neon-lit, dark romantasy twist on Snow White and the Huntsman.

There’s always more to a person than meets the eye. I’m a prime example—fierce warrior lawyer in the courtroom by day, nurturing protector by night . . .
Growing up poor made me ambitious, while the death of my beloved grandfather left me with a penchant for collecting elderly men with heartaches of their own. At the moment, I have seven. They live at the boarding house I run to help pay my law school loans. By now, they’re family, and the best men I know. Meeting Alexai Sokolov only confirms that.
For a convicted murderer, Alexai is a shockingly domineering, unsettlingly seductive pain in the arse. Maybe it’s because he’s also heir to one of the world’s largest social media companies. At least he was. For seven years he’s maintained his innocence, and with the recent discovery that his judge was corrupt, Alexai’s case is up for re-examination. But even if he is innocent, he’s dangerous—in the worst and best ways. The fact that I’m intensely drawn to him is even more treacherous.
I do my job and get Alexai released as we await a new trial. Immediately, he begins avenging his traitorous relatives and preparing to reclaim the helm of his digital empire. Amid all that, our electric connection detonates. But it also puts us—and everyone I care about—in the crosshairs of deadly enemies. If we can’t stop them, Alexai plans to just burn the whole world down. And if anything, he’s a man of his word . . .
