Rachel Foster’s carefully constructed world is crumbling around her. Her fiancé, Jasper, faces imminent ruin, caught in a web of accusations and financial turmoil. Desperate to save him, Rachel is left with only one option: Kingsly Scott, the man she abandoned years ago, a man now transformed into a billionaire forged in the fires of betrayal.
Kingsly agrees to help, but his offer is far from charitable. He hasn't forgotten Rachel's decision to choose wealth over their love, and he intends to extract a price more devastating than she could ever imagine. His terms are brutal, forcing Rachel to confront the ghosts of their shared past and the devastating consequences of her choices.
As she navigates the treacherous landscape of Kingsly's world, a world of power plays, high-stakes deals, and simmering resentments, Rachel finds herself caught in a dangerous game of manipulation and desire. The lines between love and revenge blur as old flames are rekindled, threatening to consume them both.
But Kingsly's motivations are shrouded in mystery. Is he truly driven by revenge, or does a flicker of their former love still burn within his hardened heart? Rachel must unravel his true intentions while battling her own conflicting emotions. Can she reconcile the man she once loved with the ruthless tycoon he has become?
Meanwhile, a shadow lurks beneath the surface. Rachel’s brother, Noah, is entangled in a risky venture within Kingsly’s empire, a venture that could have far-reaching consequences. A conspiracy is brewing, threatening to expose secrets and destroy everything Rachel holds dear.
Caught between her loyalty to Jasper, her reawakened feelings for Kingsly, and the looming threat of unknown enemies, Rachel must make impossible choices. Will she sacrifice her own future to protect the ones she loves? Or will she become another casualty in Kingsly's ruthless game?

CEO's Secret Play

Rachel sat on her bed, hugging her knees. Whenever she was troubled, she would bite her right thumb, which was now nearly broken from her anxious gnawing.

The pain snapped her back to reality, and she sighed, resting her head against the headboard. Whether or not she felt mature enough, she knew that the decision she'd made today was right.

It was almost laughable—despite all his precautions and carefulness, she still ended up pregnant. Turning her gaze to the starless sky outside the window, she couldn't help but smile wryly.

If Kingsly found out she was pregnant, would he be so furious he'd see red? Given his nature, he might just drag her to get sterilized... just as decisively as when he took her for the IUD procedure. Her heart unexpectedly ached.
