When ruthless billionaire CEO Dante Russo is forced into an arranged marriage with Vivian Lau—the stunning daughter of his newest enemy—he's convinced it's just a temporary inconvenience he'll dispose of once the blackmail threat passes. But Vivian is far from the meek society wife he expected, and their scorching chemistry makes it dangerously difficult to remember why he wanted to destroy her in the first place. As they navigate their fake engagement with real fire between them, both discover that the person they thought they'd never need might actually be the only one they can't live without. If you love a grumpy billionaire who meets his match in a brilliant, ambitious woman, this steamy enemies-to-lovers journey will absolutely consume you.
Reading soundtrack
Dark, sensual tension with dangerous attraction. Think moody R&B, industrial pop, and brooding alternative—artists like The Weeknd, Banks, and Halsey. Intense chemistry wrapped in obsession, power plays, and forbidden desire. Explicit and unapologetic.
