“Kiss me, Vivian.”
“Why here?”
“Because your ex is taking our coats,” he said, his gaze cold. “And I want him to know you belong to me now.”
Vivian Abel was supposed to marry the love of her life. Instead, she walked in on him buried deep inside her identical twin sister.
One shot at the bar led to another. One hazy night blurred into a binding decision. And one man’s proposition became a contract, sealed with a diamond ring and her trembling signature.
Liam Simon is the devil in a bespoke suit. A commanding billionaire, ruthless and possessive. A man forged by a legacy of power and secrets. He lives with a rare condition that leaves him numb—to pain, to pleasure, to a lover’s caress.
Until Vivian’s skin meets his, and the world ignites at his fingertips. And now, he possesses her. With a contract and in his bed. She craves the ruin only he can offer. He demands her submission, her loyalty… and her trust in his plan for revenge. Their arrangement was meant to be simple, but it unravels into a storm of raw obsession.
Buried family secrets and a vindictive ex with a shocking connection to Vivian’s bloodline threaten to shatter their fragile bond.
Liam Simon never shares what is his. Not his empire. Not his wife. And especially not his revenge.
