Isla Fox

Three years ago, Hazel Vance made a choice that changed everything. One night of passion with a mysterious stranger at a masquerade ball left her with more than just memories—it left her with a son whose rare violet-blue eyes are a constant reminder of the father she'll never find.

Now a struggling single mother, Hazel desperately needs the executive assistant position at Sterling Group. The salary could finally give her two-year-old Leo the life he deserves. But her new boss, CEO Liam Sterling, is nothing like she expected.

Demanding, brilliant, and devastatingly handsome, Liam has a reputation for being impossible to work for. Most assistants don't last a week. When Hazel refuses to be intimidated by his cold demeanor and sharp tongue, something shifts between them. The attraction is immediate and electric, crackling through every professional interaction.

But it's his eyes that stop her cold. The same striking violet-blue shade that stares back at her every morning when she looks at her son.

As the tension between them builds and the lines between professional and personal begin to blur, Hazel finds herself caught between her desperate need for this job and her growing attraction to the one man who could destroy everything she's worked for.

She doesn't know that Liam has been searching for the mysterious woman from the masquerade ball ever since that night changed him forever. And he has no idea that the composed, fiery assistant who challenges him at every turn is the same woman who haunts his dreams.

When the truth finally comes to light, will it bring them together or tear apart the fragile new life Hazel has built for herself and her son?

The CEO’s Masked Secret Wife

The taste of Liam still lingered on my lips as I gazed up at him, watching satisfaction wash over his features. His violet eyes held a dreamy quality that made my heart race faster. The way he looked at me in this moment felt reverent, almost worshipful.


His thumb traced along my cheekbone with tender precision before he drew me against his chest. The warmth of his breath tickled my ear as he spoke in that deep, rumbling voice that never failed to send shivers through me.


"You are absolutely incredible, Hazel. So eager, so perfect." His arms tightened around me possessively. "But now I need you beneath me on this bed."


Before I could respond, he lifted me effortlessly, placing me gently on the silk sheets. His hands roamed over my skin with reverent touches, as if he were mapping every curve and valley of my body. The intensity in his gaze made me feel like some ancient goddess being worshipped at her altar.
